Re: MIDI F# is cueing next chunk, but not in commands

I always have to delete this MIDI event on new projects in the commands window. Its under the Category "Chunk Selection" , then Seq-1, then delete F#2. By the way, this didn't show up when I searched using the word chunk in the commands window. You must scroll down to it.

Re: seeking advice on iMac vs MacPro purchase for film scori

Good to hear Markus. I'm off now to look for a 5,1. I suppose my older 2007 MacPro is not worth upgrading.

Re: seeking advice on iMac vs MacPro purchase for film scori

Thanks Marcus for the link to that thread. Another option I hadn't considered though I'm a bit hesitant to try that CPU upgrade myself.

Re: seeking advice on iMac vs MacPro purchase for film scori

Thanks Mike for that thorough reply. Good points to ponder. $2600 is not a hard ceiling but I did not consider a 1T flash drive. That raises the price substantially. I had planned on buying RAM from OWC and using my existing monitor with TB-HDMI adapter. I suppose that what led me into nMP territory...

seeking advice on iMac vs MacPro purchase for film scoring

Hello, I have been using a 2007 MacPro for general recording and recently the hard drive died. I am considering purchasing either a late 2015 iMac Intel Core i7 (Skylake) 4Ghz quad core or the base model 2013 MacPro quad core. I am leaning towards the MacPro for its upgradability if my needs change ...

Thanks Spikey Horse for your quick response. I thought the ensemble might be the way to go though I was shying away from it because of issues that you mentioned. I will give your suggestions a try. Great forum.

Hey folks, I'm new to DP and never felt the need to belong to a group. But this sounds like a good bunch so you can count me in. I knew this was the right DAW (and forum) when everybody here loves the Beatles and some even knew about Emitt Rhodes. Pretty cool

Compatibility of Mac Pro and Fireface 400 vs MOTU interface

I am new to the site and to the DAW world and I had a few questions re: using the RME FF400 with my Mac Pro. I know there has been problems with firewire on Intels and was wondering if I should return it for a 2408 mk3 (recommended by the salesman at West LA music for future expandability if desired...
