This version solves a lot of the problems I was having with with the SFP. Much less annoying. Thank you Creamware.

Yes - clearly an improvement.

Bee greeted!

How can it be that a soundcard that cost around 1300$, and has come with a brand new update, still not have made it 24/32 bit wave compatible under 2000/XP!!!!!!

The 3.1a version could not be found by Avid DV Express (a 30$ card can be found by Avid and have also 24/32 bit communication) but have not had the time to check this out with the 3.1c version.

I think this is a scandale and wonder why this platform under 2000/XP, only supports 16 bit wave!!!!

I want to use SX and Avid and need therefore 2000/XP but then i dont have 24/32 bit available for Samplitude that i use as a mixing/mastering section.

So i have to use ME for samplitude and 2000 for SX and i tought this was a fusion time!!!! (me i see it as a Confusion time)

Are people happy to go back to the old 16 bit days when we move towards
superaudio productions, or do people not care or here the difference?

Do the guys who develope these systems dont care either?

I was told that with the release of 3.1c that this issue was fixed but its not!
So i updated from Luna to Pulsar 2 card but still have the same problem!

Can some of you or other reliable people tell me why!!!!!

Best regards

Tomhawk

I don't know. What does Creamware say about this?

3.1c is not out yet.
what you are trying is 3.1c RC2
its a development version not a final release.

Tomhawk, Creamware is a small company. If you are not happy with your card I am sure you can sell it on ebay. I have been using their products since the Pulsar I and it's starting to get very nice for me now. Creamware is a small company but they are making steady progress both in features and performance. All other cards become outdated quickly but I am still using my old Pulsar because of the ability to connect it to my other creamware cards. I have 11 DSP chips and the flexiblity of mixers, effects, synthesizers and samplers. The ability to grow is a fantastic aspect of Creamware products.

Agree. I have 11DSP too. Creamware has the leadership in digitalized synths (soft&hard) sounding quality with the Minimax (only true analog synths can be compared with). There are great synths and FX in this platform...

There are issues, fixed little by little. SFP3.1c RC2 is a clear improvement to SFP3.1a. Let them do the job, it will be done.

A good point for the SFP platform, is that it never stop improving...and always stay on top

i just tried 3.1c. for now everything working

i try to record in wavelab by useng 24bit-wdm and everything working fine - 24 bit reproduction too.
i find on cw forum that somebody have probs with synchrotron - but for me this synth working same as before.
so, i can also said: "bravo, cw!"

This is incorrect: 24-bit wave drivers are working fine here, even with SFP 3.1a... the confusion may come from the driver dialog with the 24bit "deactivated." This doesn't seem to effect operation.

Perhaps there could be an improvement further, but it does work.
