Interesting,- thx for clarification !

I upgraded my computer from Windows 7 to 10. Now I dont get any sound because Scope/startup project isnt loaded, the speaker icon in the taskbar is crossed out. ... PS: it is scope 7, registry entry in run exists, it seems windows could'nt load scope.exe -s as background process. IIRC, this is a we...

My Lenovo W540 and 541 workstation laptops,- running Win10 and 11 Pro x64,- both use iGPU of Intel i7 mobile quad (Haswell) and a dedicated graphics card in harmony.
No issues up to now.

Thx,- this is interesting ´cause, like their other products, it will be available from Thomann (reseller) sooner or later. I´d wish there came a 4-octave version ! For Scope, don´t expect too much developement progress a.t.m.. I´m urgently waiting for their fully working Win 10/11 ASIO driver alone ...

I was hoping that the A16 could take sync down both Z-link and ADAT, as it's ultimately the same source! I didn´t say it´s impossible, instead just only cannot imagine. No need to try up to now and sice using a BNC master clock device. So, you´re the one,- and please post the result here. :) Bud

I wonder, would it be possible to use one z-link (->Luna2) and one ADAT (->Pulsar2) connection on the A16U to use its 16 channels? This would then leave one ADAT connection on my Pulsar2 left, and another 8 channels available if I bought an UltraGain or something? And then ? - A16U is synced to wha...

I have a system containing a Luna2 and Pulsar2 connected via STDM, with and A16Ultra connected via ADAT, giving me 16+2+2 channels. I've been offered an Apogee Mini-Me (2003), which is a Mic preamp and ADC with spdif out. I would like to use this with one of the SPDIF ins on the Scope cards to give...

Should work w/ any laptop offering at least 1 true (up to 40GB/sec) Thunderbolt port.

Not cheap,- but might be interesting for XITE-1 users.

... Personally I am kind of against of using sample libraries mainly because I like sound synthesis. That said when there is work on a product then most probably there is value so they are sample libraries and samplers that are interesting sound creation machines. True. But for me, sample editing w...

Nice way of working Bud thank you ! I don't use a sampler but I use the daw as a sampler. Well,- that´s what a DAW is when recording or rendering VST/AU devices to audio. And yes, I also use NI Kontakt and Reason,- both can sample,- but I rarely do. Today´s count of sample library offerings is over...

I still can't achieve more than 35 voices on STS5K without having the async error message. Better than nothing ! :wink: In opposite to STS-3K, STS-5K uses the host´s CPU ressources much more,- at least because of realtime time streching abilities ! Anyway ... real AKAI S-1000 and S-1100 offer 16 vo...

STS samplers ...Bud, what were the capabilities of your system in terms of max achievable polyphony with several STS instances loaded ? No idea. I don´t use several instances. I´m not "that samples guy" anyway and use the SCOPE synths as also all my hardware much more. For playing back AK...

... STS Samplers ... If Scope is primarily a sampling workstation for you, it is likely best to use it as you would an outboard sampler and tie it to a separate machine hosting your heavy DAW projects to keep MIDI tight. ^^^^^ THIS ! My former DAW rackmount, 32Bit Win XP (or Win 7) Pro, Intel Penti...

Great ! Good to know,- thx for testing !

Quick question as I still want to start using my XITE-1 that has been sitting in a box for 10 years, but scared of all the IT and build-your-own-PC postings. A recent post by Valis mentioned using a Thunderbolt-to-PCIe box. So, will this work? If I use a modern PC with thunderbolt, and connect it t...

Yes I do have the keyfiles, I just found them!

Will a Scope 4.0 keyfile work for scope 4.5?

Scope 4.5 devices, also optional ones, work w/ v4.0 keys.
I dunno if you will need a v4.5 key for SCOPE application itself.
IIR,- i guess not,- but I´m not sure.

Several other advantages of XITE over PCI Cards is: ... 2) XITE is designed with portability in mind and had this advantage in the past, but now we are waiting for S|C to upgrade from Expresscard to Thunderbolt/? so that can be a clear advantage again. ... I agree on 1), 3) and 4) ... According to ...

So one a16 synced to zlink and the other to Adat? Will the xite support it? With XITE you can use everything I/O simultaneously, which in principle, is the same like it is w/ the PCI cards. When XITE is the master, "word clock" (OUT) is transmitted via Z-Link, ADAT, AES/EBU and BNC. So, c...

Wow,- these look great !

Many thx for upload !!!
