I have a friend who just signed with a big UK label who uses pulsar for just about everything
He love his pulsar
He knows how to use it
You can have all the tools in a big SONY
studio but if you dont know how to use them then you cant blame the studio..
its you..
Pulsar is Professional if you are.
I have it running on a 3year old PC
the lastest Mac G4 and many PCs
its about how you set it up.
Its How you build a Machine.
So if you read about the W2k
release it says BETA
BETA = TEST
so if you need some help i would be happy to help you!
As with any pulsar user.

Sorry to say, but I agree with the unhappy ones. The experiences so far with Creamware and Pulsar riminds me to much of a product designed in Germany, produced in some east european country and code written in india. Custumer support is non existent and products are not performing as advertised.

In theory, there is nothing technical forbidding smux on a pulsarI, but you get the message "incompatible hardware". It was advertised as a recording environment, but that is not what it supported. Ever tried to mix on a bigmixer?? 10 tracks, 3EQ, 1 compressor, 1 dither and 1 reverb and you get a PCI overflow! (and before you start, no via but intel)

I tried do do audio processing on it, but no usable filters are available, and for the money to buy scope and build them myself, there are a lot cheaper alternatives.

If you ever think that 2CPU's will be supported, forget it. Same as with another application, NT was supported, but if you wanted to run on a dual, chrash. Support asked what I meant with mulitprocessor.

Also are the cards dated and overpriced. DSP power is damned cheap as is ram.

I wait for V3, but I don't hold my breath.

phase problems

Hmm i have it running and its super big audio quality my freind...

Iam a engineer for dutch t.v and trust me u are really un-profesional.

U dont like it sell it , but please shut up your making my pist off....

U Little bitch......

But heee life sucks when u are a big zero !

Ronald

May I just mention that this is THE place that helped me get my Pulsar2 set up to work with my Yamaha 01V and Logic Audio?

With the help of users who are patient enough to explain how things work I am now making music instead of reading f...ing undecipherable manuals!

Perhaps those of you who aren't happy with Pulsar should give a close read to the "Problem Solving" forum.

I must add that I find Ronald's comment totally uncalled for and, might I add, completely unprofessional.

Make music guys, not insults!

Cheers!

Paul

dude, this is offensive, immoral, and unproductive in solving this persons problems. have some RESPECT for other people, especially when their view differs from your own. they might have something valuable to say. . .

Ahh balls. The negatives deserve a verbal slapping. Its nice and cathartic telling them to go screw themselves: don't be such a prude! "Immoral"... heheheh, fuggin ethics undergrads

Must be a problem in your system... I have never seen a PCI overflow msg with my Pulsar 2....

Sorry, can't help it, it just comes. I must be honest, I never thought it would saturate that fast, but I just got a lot of noise and a box asking if a retry should be done. No chrash after it, only does pulsar not remember if it was master or slave. Removing the reverb solved everything, buit whats the use of a card like pulsar if you cannot run several revebs at the same time.

The problem seems to be that pulsar is fine for using as a synth, but I don't run it that way. So if V3 does not bring some improvement for me it is curtain time for pulsar on my system.

Time to throw another positive mail in!

Multiple verbs and 32 24bit audio tracks running excellent over here Taking the plunge with Nuendo saw a lot of niggling little problems disappear for me and I'm happy to say that I'm a little less inclined to put the blame on the pulsar these days!

ASUS CUSL2-C, win98lite (no games, no IE etc), pulsar1 + srb, Nuendo =

sorry to say (and respectful i do) but <i>this is bullshit</i>.
it´s an all german product. and like madmod says very very rightly: pulsar is professional when you are.

Ever tried to mix on a bigmixer?? 10 tracks, 3EQ, 1 compressor, 1 dither and 1 reverb and you get a PCI overflow! (and before you start, no via but intel)

i was always using intel hardware, and i know that you can misconfigure it as you can do such with via stuff...
i had a pulsar1, too. and i was <i>indeed</i> able to mix more than 10 tracks with the big mixer, several eq´s, many comps, and even a little reverb - <u>without</u> pci overflow.
so don´t take your misleading tryings as the only proofed situation...

I tried do do audio processing on it, but no usable filters are available, and for the money to buy scope and build them myself, there are a lot cheaper alternatives.

you guys always talk of "too expensive, there are better alternatives..." please, would you show me at least <i>one</i>...?
take a look at the thread about that issue in the creamware forum, named "don´t complain! alternatives for 1000$"

If you ever think that 2CPU's will be supported, forget it. Same as with another application, NT was supported, but if you wanted to run on a dual, chrash. Support asked what I meant with mulitprocessor.

could you explain me, which benefits you expect from 'multiprocessing support' of pulsar/scope? remember it´s not a native software, before you answer...

I wait for V3, but I don't hold my breath.

then sell your stuff. we are holding it, because we´ve read the announcement, and know, pulsar is getting even more fantastic!

have fun
Mo

Regarding ronaldmeij insults you have to consider that he his an engineer for DUTCH TV
not for ABBEY ROAD ,so he must be frustrated! And mybe he also has a SAE diploma

There's so much love in this forum. Can you just feel it? I know I can

.

analogo synths sound really good!

modular synth ..super good sounding!

effects from creamware sucks......... worse than software FX......

DSP..... powerless....... but sounds good

whole thing........

mixer....... sucks...... errors......sometimes.......

interface.......super slow........

over all...... just buying few analogo synths in PCI card...... no cheaper than buying hardware.....

(you need to get a good midi controler to play it as a real analogo synth, e.g. phatboy)....... but it's another..... hardware... more money


creamware people all smarties but all not normal people, coz so smart..... so different from normal people so.... people often feel not so good from them.

Go to hell. I hate you and.... just kidding.
Get a grip boy and explain whatcha mean with Creamware FX suxs... there are so many.. .. wich ones did you have in mind (or ass) ? eheh.

I sorta like ya Air_Pollo - never holding anything back. so open and rude. kinda funny too.

the FX come with the pulsarII package
third party's much better

Hey algorhythm, I kinda like your guts too,
good thing you see my sarcasm hidden in the written language and also you have healthy opinions about a great deal of things the peo. (fart) Heh, ciao.

I use kyma, Pulsar 1 with pIII 933, 512 ram. I do experimental electronic music and am totally amazed @ creamware cards. They synths sound great. I have bought every thing pulsar has to offer. and feel good about my purchases. Those who complain about not having "sounds out of the box" and dont want to "program" their sounds; creamware is about recording creating your own sounds. If you have a pulsar, why you would use presets is beyond me, if you make your own modular stuff, you will understand the power of this amazing card. Rme has nothing on creamware. just audio I/o. and thats a pretty boring card if you ask me. i'll keep the creamware card, and upgrade it. while you spend $1000's on hardware gear and program on a 2 inch screen, with all its preset splendor.
