Just a note to my friends here at MOTUNation
Posted: Wed Oct 26, 2016 4:03 am
I haven't been around much lately, and if anyone has needed my help for anything, I apologize for not being able to do so. I know that several PM's have either gone unanswered or briefly answered after delays.
I've been out of town a lot. Family health stuff. My presence has been needed elsewhere more than here, so I've been gone. I have my iPad, but not much time to use it. It appears for the foreseeable future, this will continue.
Nevertheless, this forum is not lacking in any way for solid answers to practically any question. I'd say I'm not missed at all, at least as far as answers are concerned. Just reading over the posts in my few days between trips, I'm amazed at the fantastic answers to the posts. This forum has some prodigal talents! I'd single everyone out, but I'd almost certainly stick my foot in that. So many great people here. I WILL go out on a limb for one, because he hasn't been here as long as others, and I think that Robert Randolph is offering transformative levels of help these days. Man, it's exciting to see new people come here and take this seriously — and get it right!
As always, the management of the forum is evident in the results: we have a self-regulating forum (mostly) which stays out of the majority of conflicts by respecting the two rules whose violation will bring crashing down upon the offenders the draconian will of the dude at the top: James Steele! Respect those rules, however, and he remains like a pussycat. A rock-n-roll pussycat in spiky metal boots and leather collar, that is, as well as a seasonal Santa Frickin' Claus.
Ok, I'm outa here again. See y'all in a few weeks. Maybe in time for Thanksgiving. Have a scary Halloween! [Remember: just the rolls of paper; no eggs, ok?]

PS: Will someone get this Sierra / DP 9.1x stuff straightened out before I get back to work? Really. I mean it. That's not what I want to come back to! You Cambridge (Boston) guys: this is the time where you all say "let's fix EVERYTHING!" You've got the greatest user base in the DAW world. Use us to help you find and fix all these niggling little annoyances that add up to production problems. We'll toast you come Thanksgiving and New Year. In fact, I'll make a deal with you. You fix it by New Year, and I'll buy you a round at the NAMM dinner. Which means I'll have to fly out to do that. Think we can shake virtual hands on that? Then why are you still reading this? Get back to work!
