Maybe the problem is in this way...

I am sorry, I do not understand what do you mean by "Right edited".

anyway, at this stage, I just started cubase. I did not try to run any project yet.

Thanks.

i thought cubase should be installed first since the scope installation expected the vst plugin location. i was also adviced by other people on this forum to install cubase first.

when you say that you install the sound card first - i guess you refer to Scope cards, right ?

The computer is still brand new, so if you think this can make a difference, i can un-install both, and start with the card this time.

Many thanks.
Shay

stardust, many thanks for replying. the problem is not purely cubase, since i get an error message also when i try to put ADAT B on the scope routing window.

"Can't find DSP file P-Plate Adat B Dest"

cheers.
Shay

hi stardust. i did re-install, in fact a few times, and since this is a new computer. there's not much on it except scope & cubase.

as for the DSP file, do you mean the ADAT.io file, or something else?
the "p-plate adat b.io" files are identical in both the installation and the installed directories.

Many thanks.
Shay

installation is on the default installation directory c:\scope

Many thanks.

stardust. I am truly grateful for your input. I will consider re-installing though I doubt that this is the answer since this computer is brand new, and the installation is already minimal. My old computer had Internet and a lot of nonsense on it, and still everything worked there without a problem.

cheers.

first things first! have you deleted the dsp file and then copy/pasted it friom the install cd yet? it doesn't matter if it's already there, replace it, and be sure it's not marked "read only" in the file's properties. this should be a 100% fix for the adat error. if not, i'm in favor of a complete reinstall. save time and energy by doing it right from the beginning.

it's ok to install the scope software after installing cubase, but the scope driver should be installed before either. i don't think your problem if from that, though. i don't think standard pc is the answer either. acpi should be fine with a new computer.

Hi, I don't think anyone answered your question quoted above (unless I've missed it) So... Restart & enter your mobo's bios settings software. On one of the pages you'll find your mobo's ethernet controllers. If you don't plan on using them, completely disable them. Ideally, this is better done just before a fresh install. While you're in there you can also disable onboard sound, parallel, seriel, game ports etc (basically anything you know for sure that you won't need.

this is a quote from musicxp.net:

"In fact, installing Windows XP as a "Standard PC" on an APIC compatible computer will probably result in reduced performance and a reduction with overall reliability."

must I go there? Did all of you with PulsarII & XP install it on a "StandardPC " mode ?

Thank you.

Shay

no, you don't need to go there.

.. so.. we're back to square 1..

you need to go step by step. the "missing" dsp file is a very small problem, unless you start thrashing around trying to fix it. i'd offer more help, but you don't seem to be responding to direct questions and directions.....

Gary, thank you very much for setting me straight. I re-read the posts, and indeed I missed quite a few bits. Will try to re-install based on the threads that stardust reccomended.

All the best.

Shay

likewise, all the best.
i've got my fingers crossed.
if you find a problem, we'll get it sorted.

hi guys.

replaced the MOBO to the recommended Intel, and also replaced the CPU to Intel.

Installed Scope, then Cubase.

Now Cubase sees all the IO, and there are no error messages!

There is only one problem left - I cannot change the "Clock Source" in cubase to "Slave to ADAT". While the option does exist, it always reverts to "Master".

Hope this one is simple.

Looking forward to your advice.

All the best.

Shay.

oops.. just installed the update for cubase 3, and .. IT'S WORKING FINE!!

ok.. i don't want to jump into conclusions,but.. it really looks great!

cheers.

Shay.
