Welcome to the PARISwiki!
...your info source for the obsolete but brilliant PARIS digital audio workstation...There are many options for browsing the data here; scroll down the page for a "quick reference" table of contents; browse the RecentChangesMindMap Recent Changes MindMap; search for a particular term from the "search" box in each page's header; browse the PageIndex full page index - or just browse around and enjoy.
Got a PARIS issue in the middle of a session - no time to browse? Jump straight to BugsTroubleshooting Bugs, Troubleshooting and the Error Code Compendium (and before you go any further, if you've got an error message in PARIS staring you in the face right now, with unsaved work at risk, if PARIS will let you: alt-tab to the Project Window, ctrl-shift-S to save your project under a new name).
UPDATE, Q1 2010: PARIS OMF support now in AATranslator!
Ever sent out PARIS sessions to be mixed at a non-PARIS facility and had to do the "render dance"? Michael Rooney, developer of AATranslator, has just brought the PARIS community the hands-down coolest advance it's ever seen from an outside developer. Now that PARIS OMF support has been added to the long list of DAW formats supported by AATranslator (Standard version is chock full of different DAWs $59, Enhanced version adds PT5 and other non-PARIS OMF formats $99) you can finally fly your PARIS sessions out to other DAWs ranging from Nuendo to Logic to Cubase to SADIE to Adobe Audition to Sonar and beyond (the full list is at the link). See ParisOmf this page for more information on the process, and the short "preflight checklist" that will help you prepare and export properly working OMFs from PARIS. Make sure you mention you're a PARIS user!
UPDATE, Q1 2010: PARIS on Windows 7?
Want your mind blown? Check out this thread on Mike Audet's progress on Windows 7 drivers for PARIS.
UPDATE, end of '09: The PARISwiki gets a facelift
We've updated to WikkaWiki V1.2, which brings increased security, great new functionality (notice the site search box in the upper right?) and a new look, complete with user-customizable themes (which definitely means giving the Wiki a proper PARIS theme as time permits). Let us know if the update has broken anything and we'll get right on fixing it. If you prefer the previous look, go into "Change Settings/Logout" (don't actually log out - just set your theme to "default" there).

This is an educational site dedicated to information about the brilliant but now discontinued PARIS digital audio workstation (a joint development of Ensoniq and Intelligent Devices), with an eye towards collecting all available information and lore into one central easy-to-use crosslinked location (MissStat click here for the full Statement of Purpose and legal info). The site is greatly indebted to PARIS' voluntary archivists - DougWellington Doug Wellington, SteveDellaMaggiora Steve "artguy" Della Maggiora and JohnBercik John Bercik - for their prior copious and painstaking collections from which so many of the initial entries of the PARISwiki have been drawn, and of course to ChuckDuffy Chuck Duffy and HiddenSound Hiddensound's Kim, whose newsgroups were the heart of the PARIS community for so many years. Users are encouraged to add and edit pages; there is a brief tutorial on how to ParisWikiTut create, edit and link new pages over here, the full documentation over here, and a list of FormattingRules all sorts of formatting options over here. Editing is easy; some might consider it fun, or even addictive. Administrative requests are minimal: try for a "technical writing" style, stick to PARIS or closely related issues, and adhere to the general principle of NPOV.
In short: if you have PARIS info you feel like contributing - go for it! The new NeededPages Needed Pages section is a great place to begin. If you see anything on any of the pages that you know is incorrect, or could be worded more clearly, or contains a misused term or an incorrect credit or attribution - please do log in, click twice and fix it!

ParisExportFacilities PARIS Export Facilities: Frequently heard over the years: "I have a song in PPJ format but I don't have access to PARIS hardware to open it on; can anyone here open a .ppj and translate the tracks out for me?". List your facility here if you want to advertise your services exporting PARIS sessions for use in other DAWs. No endorsement is implied by these listings. NOTE that AATranslator can now translate PARIS OMFs into a wide range of destination formats, so clients now have the option to request an export as an OMF and buy AAT to do the translation, or find an AAT-equipped PARIS facility and ask them to translate it to a specific destination format at the same time.
