Subject:Connecting 2 CPU's Posted by: [r]Evolution Date:2/24/2002 10:28:50 PM I have been using Acid 3.0, Vegas 2.0, & SoundForge 5.0 for various projects. The problem that I have ran into is trying to use VST plug-ins/Wrapper Lyte (Halion or SampleTankXL) as SoundSource. --Sonic Foundry is non supportive as my research has uncovered. Now what I am attempting is to connect 2 CPU's. One that will run either Acid or Vegas as a recorder, and one that will house my Halion or SampleTankXL as a sound source. CPU as recorder= 1.2Ghz Athlon processor, 384megs RAM, Echo MIA soundcard(2 Ins-2 Outs-SPDIF), Windows ME CPU as sound source= PIII 800Mhz processor, 256megs RAM, DAL The CardD Plus soundcard(2 Ins-2 Outs), Windows SE I use an 8track mixer/pre amp to input into my MIA. (Need a card w/breakout box) If I route Audio Out from CPU w/Halion-- Mixer-- Audio In on CPU w/Acid or Vegas. Should/Would this be the correct hookup or would you guys recommend a different hookup? Also, if I wanted to record this as a MIDI signal...what would I need to do? I am thinking of getting a USB/MIDI box-- or would I need to get a sound card w/MIDI for one of my CPU's? --Lot's of money spent trying to set up a home studio where I can record others--Need to make this work!-- Thank You guys very much (in advance) for your help!!!
