Re: OWC posts expected ML requirements
64 bit firmware is the only performance boost? (powernap requires an SSD boot drive anyway). The pain is this creator app folder limitation one directory deep. Directory police ticketing home only? So is this ML upgrade an 'archive and install' so your SN data is to be found in the previous sys fold...

Re: to 24bit or 32bit, that is the question
Ck out the 2nd to the last paragraph here http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Bit_Depth#32_Bit From the paragraph above 32 fp as described will prevent bit loss when maximizing an already compressed mix. When it comes to the least significant bits I'm totally baffled how fp improves the fidelity of th...

Re: to 24bit or 32bit, that is the question
Can anyone explain then if these least significant bits that might have been truncated but are now preserved, what if any audible effect it would have for non realworld recordings (such as virtual space) when mastered?
Isn't now the limitation reverb tail reporting?

Re: Core Audio in 10.7. + MOTU h/w
Apple pushed out a 2012 update for CoreAudio, Coretext, etc for Snow Lion and Lion (security update for SN) to patch vulnerabilities in CoreAudio, CoreText, CoreVideo, etc.
Was it this patch?

Re: Why no selection 'grab' handles in ruler?
Yeah commands had been automapped from DP 2.7 as listed in the old 'song' sketchpad. Thanks.
So I 86'd the 'a' and 'i' in commands and it now toggles the Pointer- I beam.

Re: Why no selection 'grab' handles in ruler?
I was able to absorb a few of the tips (thanks to Da Kine folk here) ---> Markers can display grid in Sequence but not in Tracks Window. ---> 'shift+ i-beam' works like a charm and then 'control+option+a' to expand that selection range to all tracks. Easy to remember. ---> 'command + shift + i-beam'...

Re: Why no selection 'grab' handles in ruler?
Thank you one and all. Trim tool on a selection's begin-end points might be useful. That would eliminate the need for grab handles. Although coming from other DAWs grab handles would eliminate frustration by non-expert users. I did attempt vertical alignment using markers. Nada (again I had to use t...

Re: Overdubbing a MIDI track at 2 different tempos
I once had both Vision and Digital Performer open on a Pismo. Vision's click was 6/8, Performer 4/4. Tempo's set so the downbeats lined up. It played both QT clicks for a few minutes then froze. If I remember correctly sync'd with MTC via the IAC bus (no audio engines loaded). However in real life, ...

Re: Why no selection 'grab' handles in ruler?
Thanks. I'm testing this now with the audio tracks. I've been using the playback wiper as a vertical ruler and feel like I should be sitting in a corner wearing a pointed hat or something. I know I can edit the begin and end selection times by value (scrolling by beats or ticks) but coming from PTs ...

Why no selection 'grab' handles in ruler?
Working with material from 2" not referenced to MIDI I'm finding it a pain to accurately select multiple tracks. All other DAWs have grab handles you can move to relocate either beginning or end point of selection. I love this DAW don't get me wrong. Must be something I'm not doing right. If I ...

Re: Weird: new cloud-based "DAW" for straight-to-Facebook re
(rant version) What we may end up with is iMaschine on NI's site. Figure on Propellerheards site. Etc. But wouldn't Soundcloud be an more neutral solution to publish? Likewise will iMaschine samples be compatible with Soundation or Sound Studio 2? Seems the market has driven Facebook to support the ...

Ohm My God Ω just the names of these plug-ins alone are almost worth the 299 quid! I think this online collaboration idea is more of an iMaschine beat making deal. iMaschine to MIDI type 1 or 2?
