Cheap Scope compatible Garage PC

I'm very happy with my current Scope system but am not excited about leaving it at the rehearsal garage for my current music project or hauling it back & forth. So i'm looking at building a cheap PC around my second project card to capture via my A16 Ultra. I know 1156 and 775 processor systems ...

Scope DSP applied to other formats?

Creamware B4000, Minimax, Prodyssey ASB housed Scope software in standalone desktop synth boxes & Noah was a Rack unit. Has any effort gone into housing other Scope "plugins" & effects in other formats like Pedals or Eurorack? Companies like Strymon are making great DSP based fx pe...

Re: Two Pulsar IIs in Gigabyte GA-Z87-HD3 Intel Z87 Socket 1

Just to follow up - I found that with the stock overclock applied by scan.co.uk I was getting BSODs during video games. I've rolled back the CPU clock speed to stock and am now running stable. i had some overclocking issues with my GIGABYTE board as well. it's got plenty of juice stock, so i also r...

Re: building a new home for my Pulsar II

so it looks like Win7 is switching my 2 Scope cards around. Yesterday the Lucid was on Pulsar 2 [1] B & today it's on Pulsar 2 [2] B. when slave setting targets a nonexistent location, the glitches return. maybe I need to kick my ADAT cables around to compensate for M$ inconsistencies.

Re: building a new home for my Pulsar II

I just noticed irq17 scope is sharing with a pci ide controller. I'm guessing that means the ide drive I have the os on is sharing w/ the pci slot. Since swapping out the video card had catastrophic effects on the os. I'm going to pick up a new sata drive for the os & try a clean install minus t...

Re: building a new home for my Pulsar II

NVidia cards work great. it's possible the card that you have has a problem. isn't there a card in another machine you can try before spending money? i have a card in another machine i could try but it's a very similar NVIDIA card to the one already in there. i'll give it a shot before i spend. why...

Re: building a new home for my Pulsar II

what my bios calls "multithreading" is off, as is EIST. i disabled the USB on IRQ 16 & another on 19 since it's the PCI/IDE controller. also killed the Network. no effect. i'll try shutting down some more connections & see if that helps, before trying a new video card. 720W should ...

Re: building a new home for my Pulsar II

spent all day disabling services & futzing about with settings in the OS, Scope & Reaper. still getting glitches in my recordings. Reaper seems to be the most sensitive. most everything else runs fine @ low latency live. IRQ16 & 17 are looking a little crowded. tried moving the vid card ...
