Re: Assigning DSP's

Which DSPs are the new, fast ones, and which are the older, slower legacy ones?

Re: Experiences/advice on creating PC/Xite-1 setup

John, [..] There's no mystery behind turning off the XITE though. It is allowing capacitors to release stored electricity, and probably some EEPROMs to discharge some 1s and 0s. This is true for the computer, but usually requires removing the plug from the wall to fully allow it power down. [..] Co...

Re: New plugins on S|C Website

A question for US buyers of S/C plug ins. The prices are marked "incl. 19% VAT." Does that mean US buyers pay VAT on these?

Re: Re Optimized Plugs

1. Does anyone know if Flexor III works on Xite-1?

2. If it does, how do I transfer the keys from PCI Scope to Xite-1 Scope?

Re: Experiences/advice on creating PC/Xite-1 setup

Have you told 'the gents?' - We are still in RC mode. They just sent me a dsp dll update the other day that stabilized things considerably - especially when running both PCI and Xite concurrently. (they should probably post it here) Greg I told them there was a problem installing when I sent in the...

Re: Experiences/advice on creating PC/Xite-1 setup

John, Your list makes me wonder if you have ACPI installed, or is it Standard PC? Are you able to see any IRQs above 16, up to 23 in your list? If not, that would explain why you don't see the IRQ shift when you swap slots as well. Cory ACPI installed, Interrupt numbers up to 23. I don't really thi...

Re: XITE-1 PC CONFIGURATION REFERENCE

Here's mine. Also a Gigabyte X58 motherboard. Also is flaky, with occasional stutter, freeze, BSOD. This only happens when the Xite-1 driver is installed and enabled. With the driver disabled, even though the Xite PCIe card is still installed, the computer is back to its normal cheerful, stable oper...

Re: Experiences/advice on creating PC/Xite-1 setup

Got mine last night. I'm also using the Gigabyte X58 series mb, and the Xite PCI/Interrupt setup clearly has problems with this board, at least under WinXP Sp3. I got the same kinds of "can't install" messages and the mouse cursor was mostly stopped. But every 10 seconds or so it would com...

Re: i7 Motherboard with 3 Scope PCI Cards

I would also be interested in any software you create that was made to use with the XITE-1. ArtWonk and MusicWonk both have been tested extensively with Scope. They are MIDI pumpers, so there is no reason they won't work with Xite-1. They connect to up to 4 sets of Scope software MIDI I/O devices s...

Re: i7 Motherboard with 3 Scope PCI Cards

An update on the ASRock motherboard. I've had 3 of these boards die, the last one even after I put in the chip cooling (in this case, the back USB ports all crapped out). On my 3rd RMA call to Newegg, they said I could replace it with a different board, so I picked the GIGABYTE GA-EX58-EXTREME http:...

Re: Worth The Wait

I just installed a SSD as my main drive, and I love it. The speed is great, multiple times faster than a hard drive. But the reason I sprung for one is that I do a lot of sofware development, which means I crash a lot - and loosing the data on the HD can sometimes be a serious problem. I back up fre...

Ouch! What rotten luck you've had with this. I hope S/C jumps on this when they finally do get it, and can give you a happy if late outcome.

Re: i7 Motherboard with 3 Scope PCI Cards

Not sure what you are asking, so I guess the short answer is "no." It runs the same as it did before, the faster speed shows up when compiling and other computer intensive tasks, not so much with Scope - which is the point of all those DSPs, right?
