Ok, I'll tell you something.

Scope supports ASIO 2.2.

Happy?

I am :) but does it support VST 2.4 can anyone tell me that?

Also, just because something supports ASIO 2.2 doesn't mean it needs to be 64 bit.

Ok now SC I am starting to feel happy, just please will you send a representative to my ...

Ok so now that is out of the way....

From where I sit (manufacturers aside) I am a sound designer, so firstly I need either samples and/or synthesis algorithms, how the sounds are reproduced in the end is not of concern in the first instance.

Secondly, I need a system that can run my DAW ...

yes, you are being willfully ignorant. is this a race to see who "appears" to be most friendly, or do you want to know about a great product? if Scope isn't right for you, then by all means, don't buy it!

Personally I think at the end of the day, people like you are bad for SC and are more a part ...

as to asio 2.2, if there is currently no 64bit version, then...
there WILL be a 64 bit version as long as S/C remains in business, however.

Why don't you ask the proprietors yourself instead of getting on here and telling people what you don't know about, all the while trying to put dirt on so ...

And what do you think they'll put into some powercore as an asio driver, if they ever give a try to an "all included" system?

As I said, tc now appear to be listening and more importantly liaising with customers, something obviously SC have always done but the point is for me at least that for ...

well, I gave you an example above of what I'd consider mildly expensive...
in fact it's 10k over what I'd be willing to spend
if the auction is correct - then that's a very unique piece of gear... something that really hurts to miss

It's nowhere even remotely the same thing.

We are talking about ...

Bought a Firewire Konnekt 3 years ago, then I prayed they were able to publish stable drivers, then I've been astonished by the fact I can't use it as a real ADAT rack and then I went back to mama (scope). Not to mention I also posted on their support forums to say what I thought about that ...

I wrote to info at soniccore dot de asking about ASIO 2.2 support and guess what,

Well if anyone had a brain here they'd know the answer.

Anyway, as I have already said earlier the people in my country who were servicing SC technology simply threw their hands up in the air and said "enough" no ...

cheers, Tom

It's not my problem, other than I cannot afford to use it due to the exchange rate in effect. May as well just pray that TC Electronic can fill the void with their vapourware.

Having watched at NAMM a few weeks ago what UAD, Lynx, RME, etc. have gone through re: 64-bit developments compared to what Scope actually offers (a full studio environment in a 'box') going forward, it's a no-brainer to me that this is the way to go.

It would be alright if I could actually ...

Where are you located?

Thank you.

My country is not of concern right now, but what is of concern I believe is that the company that *was* servicing SC customers was put in an extremely difficult position by not being able to access product spares.

This is unacceptable to me as a customer and ...

Well, they answer to most of support requests I make and I've seen worst (Microsoft Partner Source for instance).

Hi,

I'm talking about dealerships, which looking at the website are dwindling rapidly, and I guess you can purchase online but what if something goes wrong, ie the hardware ...

You know I've been watching this forum for a long time and anytime anyone hints at using the gear solely in XTC mode they are immediately informed as to the contrary.

This is an open forum, people should not have to be brow beaten into a particular way of thinking, that one way is "better" than ...

Don't bother speaking "against" anything, since we know you just want to sell more boxes!

well, i like being cynical myself sometimes, but this is just asinine. you don't know me. i come here ONLY to help people and to amuse myself. i sell Scope ONLY because i use it and LOVE it, and because it's ...

right now, there is the XITE, which is expensive, but not really. in fact it's dirt cheap for what it is.

Maybe but not everyone can afford it. I think over the years Sonic Core have had such bad marketing that they've had to price things so high to re-coup losses. Of course the evidence is in ...

32 bit is fine so long as it's 64 bit compatible.

Even some older VST's, although not using the VST 2.4 SDK are written well enough so as to not cause problems with other plugin's but eventually you get to the point where you must make it properly compliant or abandon development altogether ...

If you write it for OSX 10.5 and above it IS 64 bit compatible already, eg pre-requisite for porting to windows.

I know but so what, it's designed to be either so on that basis I need to know what it's about.

Of course I will use it's mixers, but so to I will use it in XTC mode so I don't wish to have arguments for/against a way of working I simply need to understand.

Thank you

You are right technically but socioeconomically well I'm not that far up the pile so to speak.

Even looking at TC for all its' bugs and problems, that is very expensive as well but sonic core well it takes the cake but if I know enough I may just shell out.

Problem is of course no distributor ...

I need it because I want the synthesizers in it as there is not much else that has so much but in my country there isn't even a distributor and the prices online are oh so expensive, probably will be excluded on that basis alone, at least from XITE.
