Now, finding a good tech who isn't just a parts changer, that is a problem. One of those guys can cost you a fortune if he is only guessing what failed and why.[/quote] Don T., Lot of wisdom there. So far this is the ONLY Mac service company I've found in my area. They were recommended to me by the ...

aletheian-alex,
I spoke with the company that repaired my computer and they told me to bring it in- sounds like a hardware problem. Here we go... Hope I don't end up with the same problems you had.
Thanks for the responses guys.

A plea for help: Computers... Gotta Love 'em

Several months ago my MDD Dual 1.25 Mac wouldn't boot. $500 later I had a new logic board installed and it seemed to be back on track. Afterwards all my software needed to be reauthorized. All went well except for the Waves Diamnd Bundle for which have the authorizations had to be switched over to a...

Any brave souls tried Waves V5.9.7 Beta for DP?

With all of the angst and bad press over Waves not working with DP on the Mac Intel machines I thought I'd find a buzz about this topic on the 'Nation. But I can't find a thing! It's hard to believe I'm the only one who has seen this... http://www.wavesupport.net/Content.aspx?id=4001 I'm a Waves Dia...

I spoke with a representative at Waves today. They didn't answer my email from last week so I had to call their tech support line. Waves makes no apologies that they don't support Intel Macs for DP, and continue to make the same hollow promises they've been giving all along. We've been forced to acc...

Thanks guys. My Trip still has a lot of life in it so I'll probably get the card. Thanks for the model numbers and source info.

ATTO SCSI card and Mac Intel

Is there an "e" series ATTO dual SCSI card available that will allow me to use my "legacy" Glyph Trip with a new Mac Intel machine? Anyone know which card (model number)? I've seen the "e" series ATTO cards on the market but wanted to make sure they are compatible with ...

I was on the phone with MOTU tech the other day. He said that Waves doesn't work with DP 5.1 (Intel), that it IS being addressed by Waves and an older version of DP (Pre Intel) would have to be used with Waves until they get up to speed. From The Waves Answer Base Page: "DP5 mistakenly loads Wa...

MH, I apologize. I wasn••™t intending to hijack your thread but this DAW control issue seems to be taking on a life of its own. MM, I'm using two 2408mkIII's, one 24io and two 2408mkII's. Additionally, I use one of the original Apogee AD16's for my main A/D conversion. Never really performed a blind...

Monkey Man, I posted this reply on the other thread that you created a link for. But I wanted to bring it to this thread also, since the two are related.

Been studying this very subject intensely for some time now. Yamaha boasts about the 02R 96 v2's capabilities as a controller, but to date I've found no evidence of any DP support whatsoever. All I've heard is that some MIDI mapping will be required; with no mention of the depth or breadth of contro...

The thought had crossed my mind also... Especially since it appears that Mackie pulled it's head out of the sand and is using USB instead of MIDI to connect to the host computer. I'll be keeping my eye on your thread.

As usual this will give me a ton of homework to do, but trying out DP5 on OSX sounds more effective than I had imagined. Thanks again for your input.

DP5 vs DP3: more features, but does it sound better?

Are there any improvements in audio quality to be gained in upgrading from my pre-Audio Unit 1.25 dual processor Mirror Door Mac running OS9 & DP3 to the new Intel Pro Macs running OSX and DP5?
