Everyone I know retired theirs. I have no doubt they could still make some great records, though.

I still have it...been a couple of years since I used it though as I've been in a (slow) studio construction phase.

The system is great...tons of tracks on even very modest processors (I was getting 24+ tracks on an old PIII 500 Mhz). Too bad development just came to a screeching halt in 2001 or so. There's no support for VSTi's, or latency compensation, and midi is poor...but the sonics are there, and the interface is easy to use.

I plan to keep using it until the hardware breaks, or it no longer fits with my workflow.

Cheers

Kris

I still use my Paris on an almost daily basis in my studio, mostly for the roots rock and roll that we play, and am very comfortable with it. I was gonna switch to ProTools last year, but honestly for the price of the conversion, it wouldn't give me any more functionality than I could see myself using.

I've used it for hundreds of other people's sessions, as well as for the three (soon to be four) Mambo Sons cds.

Agreed...it's sound is great too! Very transparent and not "digital-ly."

Still using it in 2009 alongside a Sonar rig. For tracking and mixing audio it is still the best IMO.
