  • as far as colorization, i can't really say for sure. mixes are translating well though so i imagine its minimal if anything. perhaps someone else could provide more info, if not here, over at osxaudio.com or unicornation.com.

    one thing to bear in mind is that there are three sections to the 2408 such that if one is used for analog i/o, it is lost to lightpipe. in other words you could have either three lightpipe feeds, or two lightpipes and one analog, but not both at the same time. kind of sucks but it is easy to switch it (in software thru a thing motu calls the pci audio console) if that works for you.

    Thanks Martin. That should still work for me. I'll have 5 PC's hooked up to two boxes(240[H] - which would have 6 total lightpipe in/out's. This will give me an extra analogue in/out for the external Roland SRV 330 verb (still really love that verb). Since I will not have MIR yet and no longer be using GP - I am hoping this covers that for a while. What do you think? Will this plan work?


    Rob

  • yup, i think you'll love it. you probably know this already but if not, the expander boxes are identical to the main ones just without the pci card (which you'll only need one of - at least for now. funny how once everything fills up, something comes along the next weekt to make you want another). by the way, how are you handling the monitors and cabling, kvm or is there a software option?

  • Gentle,en,
    Excuse my ignorance. What is MIR and what is GP?
    Kevin

  • Hey there, in essense GP is 'Gigapulse' and MIR (Multiple IR's) for the new VSL VI.

    Martin, right now I am running a 4 station KVM switch for the 4 VI PC's (one 19" monitor). For the Host I am running 2 - 19" screens for SX and a third screen (Direct show) for video playback (using the P750 Matrox card.)

  • Rob,
    I'm still an idiot. What's IR?

    IR = Impulse Response. It's a technique to sample the reverb of a room, enabling you to digitially apply the same reverb to any audio signal. Google on "convolution reverb" or check out MIR on VSL's homepage to learn more.

    i see. how are you going to handle this when you add the fifth computer?

    Hi Martin,


    Yea - the 4 PC's on the KVM are on a seperate monitor. The HOST SX computer is on a dual screen set-up (the third screen for the HOST will be picked up by the 3rd out on the new P750 Matrox card). Hope that explains it.

    Rob

  • got it. thanks.

  • Thanks for your help Martin. I appreciate it.
