Re: Control surface recommendations

You might look on ebay for a used Tascam US-2400. I have one that I have been using for a number of years and I like it allot.

Re: Apple says computer has digital audio out, but really??

No, not ADAT. Not 8 channels. It is SP/DIF on Toslink and as mentioned above, "You need a mini to TOSlink adapter". It is 2 channel stereo L&R. It is a Digital format - not analog.

Re: Slave PC for L.A.S.S.

I have a G5 dual 2.7 with 8GB RAM slaved to my quad core Mac Pro over ethernet. I run L.A.S.S and other large sample libraries that way and it all seems to work quite well for me.

Re: Steven Slate Drums EX as AudioMIDI no-brainer deal at $20

Must be kind of random. Yesterday I clicked on the link to their site, did the password thing, was directed to the download page. I had all the files down in under an hour. So far, Superior Drummer sounds better to my ears, I also have the Ocean Way Drums Collection. I'll get into the SS stuff more ...

Re: I anyone using a tascam US-2400 with DP6 or DP7?

+1, Yes it does work great. The Jog wheel works if you are clicked into the SE or tracks window. It only works as a locater though, not for scrub audio. Otherwise-works great.

Re: DP7.02-Snow Leopard and Inspector XL

Thanks guys. I went on over to the dark side and converted to the RNDigital versions after EA with the auth on my iLok. I don;t know the versions off hand but I guess I'll hope for the best and report back after I get my Mac Pro Running.
Peace!
