I am also considering trying to use a Startech PCI-PCIe adapter card in my studio PC. For $57 that would be a cheapest way to get to where I need to be, assuming it works. Thanks for all your help.

Bud - Thanks for taking the time to write up a detailed reply. At this point I am thinking laptops, and current models. So, it may have to be a Sonnet TB-PCIe box. I do recall that someone on this site said they were running Scope on a Mac Mini that was loaded with Windows using Boot Camp. This woul...

Quick question as I still want to start using my XITE-1 that has been sitting in a box for 10 years, but scared of all the IT and build-your-own-PC postings. A recent post by Valis mentioned using a Thunderbolt-to-PCIe box. So, will this work? If I use a modern PC with thunderbolt, and connect it to...

Hi everyone - Checking in 3 years after my last post. I am still using my original PowerPulsar on a XP Carillon PC, and my XITE is still sitting in its box. Looks like everyone is still mainly doing IT rather than making music. Does anyone out there have a single go-to PC or laptop that is a turn-ke...

Thanks for your prompt replies. So, I send my current key numbers to Sonic Core including the 3rd party keys, and they will send me new keys?

Also - my original question: no issues with jumping from Scope 4 up to Scope 7?

Thanks

Hi everyone - I pulled my PowerPulsar out of the ashes and it is running beautifully at 96 kHz using SMUX, S/PDIF in/out, with a Korg Oasys ported into it via a Friend-Chip DMX12 patchbay and a RME FF800. Running on a Carillon (remember them?) PC running XP Pro. Thirty-two bits of glory. The old equ...

Hi everyone - I pulled my PowerPulsar out of the bullpen and have started using it again while I decide what to do with my XITE. The PowerPulsar is working great, but I would like to complement it with a SyncPlate so I can have tight word clock sync across my digital devices. Does anyone have a good...

Thanks, GaryB. The plan is to have a PC dedicated to the XITE. It might have an old version of Cubase or Live on it, but that's about it.

Thanks for this update, BuG. Truly appreciated!

Thanks for this update, BuG. I think that's a 13-year old laptop that I have to start searching for on Ebay! But - I really appreciate the clear feedback on what works. Does anyone have experience with a 2020/2021 laptop? Or even a 2020/2021 desktop? Or an update on Macs running Bootcamp? Thanks!

Holy cow, everyone! This post is 11 years old and people still are having problems configuring a PC for the XITE. Sonic Core should be ashamed! This forum sounds more like an IT forum! Having that comment out of my system - I have a XITE that is unused that has been sitting in its box for almost 10 ...

While I am asking questions about my stored XITE, I have another question. I have a ton of Zarg, Adern and Scope synths on my Power Pulsar. If I want to fully use my XITE to replace the Pulsar, is there a way to transfer those synths and their licenses over to my XITE? I looked in the web store, and...

Hi everyone - I am a long-time Scope user, and have a Creamware Power Pulsar loaded up on a Carillon Audio PC running Windows XP. That thing must be around 15 years old now! Anyway, several years ago I was lured into buying an XITE-1. When it arrived, I realized that its PCI card would not fit in th...

Hi - Any help greatly appreciated. I am running a XP machine with a PowerPulsar/Scope as a slave to a Mac G5. I have been using rtpMIDI and an ethernet cable to route Midi signals from Ableton LIve in the Mac to Live on the PC. I also want to send MIDI to the Creamware synths on my power pulsar - so...

Hi - I have two great audio computers that predate PCIe, they have the longer PCI slots. I would like to get a XITE, is there a way to get a connection to these without having to buy yet another computer/laptop? I was looking at Magma boards, their PCIe expansion boxes, but bizarrely it seems that t...

OK - Here is a basic question. I have a Mac Pro, with Parallels running Windows XP Pro and I use this successfully to run a variety of PC-only apps. Can I run Scope 5 and the XITE-1 with this Mac, using Parallels/Windows XP Pro?

Thanks for your help
