Re: Connecting XITE to Scope PCI

I use Fostex VC-8 analog -> ADAT converter for my old skool synths. This is a bottleneck since it does do 44.1 internally and 48 only when clocked from outside but outside clocking does not work with outbound ADAT connections only. Maybe word clock sync from XITE might work but I did not try it. Ste...

Re: Connecting XITE to Scope PCI

Thanks for the advice. Maybe I will stick to the 44.1 for a while and see my options a bit more. Is it possible to use mux in ADAT port A and normal 48kHz in port B? I suppose I cannot do that since I can see only one 96kHz switch? Do you know if I can utilize the front panel MC inputs with line lev...

Re: Connecting XITE to Scope PCI

Can I use software audio routing instead of ADAT? Could I route my stuff from XITE to Asio destination and pick it up with Scope PCI Asio source?

I have never tried that before and I have no idea if Asio allows multiple sources / destinations.

Re: Connecting XITE to Scope PCI

I have to try if smux works. A good idea! I think my Fostex VC-8 AD converters need to be replaced since they support 48kHz only when they receive external clock. But it is not possible when my XITE ADAT outputs go to Scope PCI. Fostex internal clock supports only 44.1k so that brings the whole orch...

Connecting XITE to Scope PCI

I have seen some discussions about using Scope XITE and PCI in the same machine and so far I have seen that the best way would be to use ADAT interconnect between the two. Do you think the 44.1 / 48kHz will be a bottleneck in sound quality? Suppose if I only wanted to do mastering with PCI and neede...

Blew up my subwoofer

After my experiments with interconnecting Scope PCI with XITE I ended up with a blown subwoofer :( In my unconcious mind I had this false false belief that because noise from my subwoofer does not sound irritating it somehow cannot brake.. So today's teaching: always remember to turn off every singl...

Re: DeeKey2.pre and DeeKey2.dev

Thanks.

When I load the deekey2 under Modular IV it prompts me for DeeKey.pre. If I browse to the DeeKey2.pre that was included I get a warning message that DeeKey2.pre contains presets where only 98.55% are compatible. This sounds not very alarming but just in case you know more about this..

Hi to everyone. I just installed Modular IV and run into files "DeeKey2.pre" and "DeeKey2.dev" in the installation CDROM. What are they for? Do I need to copy them to somewhere? Since Modular IV did not seem to have any installation guide I just copied deekey2 files to the Modula...

Thanks for all the tips. And that secret part made me wow :) My bad has always been getting stuck in details before the song itself is finished.

I am a bit lazy writing this question only after 1 minute of searching this forum for answers, please forgive my laziness. But I believe this question needs to be refreshed every now and then.

My thanks for your help. I ordered XITE some time ago and waiting to get it.

I decided to take on the offer too but haven't yet proceeded to the payment since I don't know how and dare not wire 2100€ to a foreign bank account without confirming it first. I still have Pulsar I and II inside my PC. Do you think it is wise to remove them before installing XITE-1? Are they of an...

Re: Startech PCIx to PCI adapter

Common sense would tell that this solution is based on similar technology than those welded in motherboards. I suppose this thing has PCIe-PCI brigde and all the bad effects caused by it. If a high performance PCI emulation could be achieved with just rewiring from PCIe when why all the mobo manufac...

Re: Intel i7

As a tech person I would go for the latest and greatest 64 bits instead of 32 bits, for future proofness too. 64 bits Cubase / Scope 5.1 / Windows 7 works fine with me. On hyperthreading my personal experience was that disabling it increased legacy PCI performance. This is the official quote on the ...

yes, it will. i don't think that your pci overflow is caused by the same factors that the masterverb test might show, just because of what you say you have loaded before you have problems. the masterverbs are using more bandwidth than the things in your project. the p1 could be the problem, if the ...

Re: Masterverb Test Thread

I had to quit scope and start over because it caused a terrible noise to outputs. I will try to remove the pulsar 1 and see what happens.

do you have idea if pulsar1 will bring down the system also in native pci environment?
