It's great. I use it with ADAT I/O option connected to an ADAT-bridge. Very happy with this setup instead of plugins.

How much does the extra ramslots cost on a G5, 1024 ramblocks are very expensive so I want to use 512 instead. Obviously the price of these slots are important, I gather from the ad that only 2 are included but there´s roomfor 8. Henrik Krogh henrikkrogh@...

I using a Mac and have EXS24 and hopefully soon Kontakt OSX AU with Logic 6.3.1. What is the smarter purchase. It looks currently like CDxTract might be better, but I wanted to see if people had personal experiences with both/either. TIA, pfokus.....

Hook up your spare firewire drive to the PC and format ISO as usual with Fdisk or whatever XP uses.. voila - PC sees the drive and so does your Mac. Since I did this no more burning no more waiting for the LAN to copy things over no more logging in or troubleshooting. Its very fast and convenient. I never thought "sneaker net" would make a comeback - but it is getting good use in my studio.

I can HIGHLY recommend Drag Thing. It lets you set up tabbed palettes that contain your favorite applications/folders/files organized as you want. I have three such bars at the bottom of my screen which show only their tabs and slide up when the cursor is over them. One is for apps, broken down into Video, Graphics, 3D, Audio, Internet, Text, etc. One is for dynamically-mounted disks (CDs, network), and one is for my usual partitions. The Dock is reserved for running applications and a couple of key program icons (such as Drag Thing). It makes life much simpler.

Although I'm increasingly doing mixing inside of Logic, I still use an old Mackie 1604 quite heavily. I frequently get crackles and dropouts when using the Bus Inserts (which are basically, stereo jacks). I'm guessing that the contacts need a good clean - the cables have been replaced several times, they're never moved about, yet the problem always returns. Another giveaway - turning up the gain tends to stop the dropouts (which would suggest to me poor conduction). So - can anybody suggest a good way of cleaning these contacts, or do I need to get the unit serviced? A friend once told me of a jack shaped object (mildly abrasive) that you inserted into the socket to clean the contacts. I've not been able to find such a thing, but would apprecioate any input from soemone who can recommend a way of improving/cleaning the contacts in my setup in any way. Any advice much appreciated

I think I'm gonna go for the new Edirol PCR-30, which seems more easily adaptable for Logic and Roland sound modules with the overlay templates they supply and you can download. I got a great price online of $152 + shipping, so it seems like a much better value than the Oxygen 8 and I don't need the audio i/o, or I'd go for the PCR-30A... Anyone have any more/new experience or thoughts on these devices? :) Best regards, ...z The curse of the 2000s; everything will be backordered and when you get it, it won't work right...

You just need to make sure that it (OSX) is running TCP/IP (from the networking doodad) and Bobs your near relative (i presume peer to peer is what you use, if you need help with client-server just ask). Click on 'home' in an osx window and you will see a network icon dble click and it should show you all computers within your workgroup (and give you an option for those not). It is advisable to create a seperate user for network access of your Mac, but, even if you don't you can create mapped drives on your PC to any point on your mac! (I tend to use the public folder as it is available whoever is logged on. Any difficulties just give me a mail and I'll step you through it! Regards Mike

Hi all, been in the "scoring to picture" game for around 8 years now (general music a few years longer) and I'm conducting some research into the relationship between composers and directors. I wondered if those of you who also fall into this category would be willing to take part by answering a few questions? Anonymity guaranteed... it will be questions relating to any three of your previous commissions. Sorry for the OT but hopefully people who don't fall into this category won't read this anyway! Please e-mail me directly: clive@... if you would be willing to participate.. I know you're all busy people and I anticipate it won't take you more than around 10 mins to answer the quesions. Thanks very much Best wishes Clive Loseby

Hi, I'm thinking about putting my G4 MP 800-Machine in another room than my studio, to quieten it (!!!). I got a little storage room next to my studio-room in my appartement, and was wondering whether it would work or not: it is directly under the roof and not strongly isolated, (cooler than average room temperature, in autumn and winter at least). Cooler seems to be ok for a Machine that needs cooling, but I was wondering if the seemingly dry but cold environment could damage the Computer in any way, condensing warm air out of the Computers cooling system etc.... I would only have to get two holes in the wall, and slightly lengthen some cables... Any ideas/tips etc. would be greatly appreciated. regards, Frank Valet

Since you are talking about the opposite situation I don't think there should be a problem. In fact I bet as you said your computer will be ultra stable because the running temp should go down making it happy perky.

>Hi, I'm thinking about putting my G4 MP 800-Machine in another room than my >studio, to quieten it (!!!). I would think that it would be easier to build a foam-covered box around it. There are also some web pages I've seen for making your PCs quieter (you have to do a search for them, as this was awhile ago). Then you don't have to worry about hacking up the structure or worry about condensation, etc. Bob

I have build isolation boxes and I have drilled holes in walls, the hole in walls work better and are easier.

Is it right that the G4 mirror drive doors do not have a reset button and that in case of freezes the only thing to do is pull the plug??? Thanks for any info. Bob. -- Bob Lowen Antwerp, Belgium Email: rlow@...

AFAIK no Mac ever required pulling the plug unless: a. The user didn't know of this 'feature' or b. This 'feature' no longer works or is not supported on some models, or c. It didn't have a power button. (And I think they *all* do). S.

Hi guys, Today I tried to get a M-audio Audiophile USB to work with my 2x2 G5 in OS 10.2.8 but none of the three drivers provided by M-audio did work. I guess this is a "G5 issue". Any comments? (I've ordered Panther but am still waiting) The worst thing though is that Safari got got hurt by the bad drivers, so now when I open Safari it closes down with an error message informing me that it has closed down (how intelligent!) I can still use MS Explorer to surf the web but I liked Safari and want to get it into shape again. How? On my old Mac (OS 7.6.1) I simply trashed the preferances in the system folder to fix an issue like this, but what can I do in Jaguar? All the best Per Boysen www.boysen.se

Thanks Spectro, I new that, but it just shuts down the computer and then you have to restart, it is not a reset as in "the good old days". But you are right of course, it beats "literally pulling the plug". I actually meant this in a general "complete-shut-down-and-start-up" sense. By the way, sometimes you really have to pull the plug because even the shutdown procedure does not work, but I am sure you knew that. Cheers, Bob -- Bob Lowen Antwerp, Belgium Email: rlow@...

Hi all, Does anyone have such a computer with 1 internal harddisk, with only OS9.2.2 installed on it, and which works normally. In particular, I am unable with this setup to startup the computer from a CD or from an external disk and see the internal harddisk on the desktop. It just never shows. So I am unable to do things to the internal harddisk which require it not being the startup disk because it will only show on the desktop if it is the startup disk. Weird.

I would like to use some other MIDI Instruments besides the ones that came with Logic Platinum. I was wondering if there are websites where you can download free midi instruments? What are the best quality MIDI instruments to use and where can the be found or bought? I'm a little confused on this subject, so any clarification would be great. od
