ps. 2.0.7 is currently rockin' away - that split by markers is an incredible time-saver!  ;D

Well, it's out.  I just download it.  

I've been having some problems with Spark ME putting some digi noise on my recordings (at least, I think I've narrowed it down to Spark).  I may try Sound Studio to record a show tonight...

Well I recorded the opener of the show last night with Sound Studio.  It actually came out great.  I never had a good experience recording with it before....  It sucks that it gives you no feedback while it's recording, i.e. no levels on screen.  It actually does nothing until you hit stop, then it builds the wave form...  I dunno if I can use it full time.  Hopefully I can get Spark working correctly again...

I used an emi 2|6 > iBook 700.  I think I was still using OS 10.2.4 at that show, but I'm on 10.2.5 now...

I did get Spark working again (just deleted everything related to the program and installed a fresh copy) so I've only done the one show with SS...

and it worked ok with the emi and sound studio 2.1?  i can't get core audio working with the emi, only HAL (which iw why 2.0.7 worked fine, it didn't use core audio)

i'll test the new sound studio with the emi on my powerbook, but the emi doesn't work with peak or spark using core audio...

i'm transferring right now using emi 2|6/ 10.2.4/ and Sound Studio 2.1.  works fine.  also nice that SS added the input levels in 2.1.  quite an improvement over flying blind.  showing the waveform would be better, but this is good for now.   ;)

Maybe I'm crazy, but don't you just have to do Window>Show Input Levels on 2.0.7? ??? That's what I use to make sure I have a signal coming into my computer because the U2A kills my Sound Out...

--Dave

ps. The OS X 10.2.5 update just came out and its description said that the improvements/fixes included audio, but the KBase article didn't have any details. If you're having core audio problems with the EMI, try upgrading to 10.2.5, maybe?

>>If you're having core audio problems with the EMI, try upgrading to 10.2.5, maybe?<<


everyone i know who tried the emi 2|6 with core audio (spark, peak) in 10.2.4 or earlier had issues when feeding a spdif signal.  analog signal was fine. digi in was fine with HAL (what sound studio 2.0 used)

10.2.5 gives me the same issues in peak and spark (pops/clicks t 16/44.1 in spark, duplicated/dropped samples at 24 bit in peak).  i'll try sound studio tomorrow

maybe sound studio still uses HAL sometimes?  i'll check what's going on on the inside...

HAL is not listed in the dropdown menu anymore under 10.2.4/ SS 2.1.  at least not on my machine.  looks to be using Core audio all the way.  ;)

what sucks is SS 2.1 still does not support 24 bit.     :-\

on the other hand, Resample is significantly improved speed wise!  ;)

I was about to chime in and say that I've hardly had any problems with the emi 2|6 and core audio.  But I've been using the analog in only, not digi in...

So Scott, what do you use to record, then?  You've got a 12" Powerbook, right?  So OS X only?  Is there something better than Spark?

I'd like to get my hands on DP4...  ;D

with the emi, my only option is 16 bit right now.  spark 2.7 works fine for 24 bit with the minime, but running v3 > emi i'm stuck with 16 bit right now.  i wish they'd fix whatever is wrong....i want 24 bit v3 action!   8)

Ah, so maybe that's what it was.  I had a problem with a set I did a few weeks ago when I tried out 24 bit...there was digi noise all over the recording, and I couldn't figure out why...

Hopefully they'll get it fixed soon, I'd like to go to taping at 24 bit regularly (and I'm not lucky enough to have a MiniMe at my disposal).  :)
