:cry: Nobody to talk to........
Machfive is universal, but not as yet binary,
seems to be just like, the miner's dead canary,
But wait! There in the corner, it's a breathing hose....
Machfive is breathing again, after I gave it a Rose(tta)......
Ok guys, I know you gotta be able to do better than this......
Please don't banish me to the corner of the classroom Mr. Steele............. just trying to start a conversation........

Were you able to use MachFive outside of DP?

No, all I have is ProTools 7.3 and Logic Pro 7. Even before I almost never used M5 outside of DP. But I did try with PT7 with no luck. But PT7 even dissed a couple of it's own plugs in favor of slicker looking ones that defaults when you place them in the previously recorded sessions.......Bummer trying to remember the settings.

PT will place the old EQ and same genre plug-ins in the unused plug-ins folder.
I think they'll still work if you move them.
I can't convert the MacbFive plug-in to UB from PPC.
Lack of tools skills.
Let's call Jim Cooper or Les Quindepan or maybe, just go quietly into the...(fill in the blank).

yeah, they do work, but I just wish the old automation could have been read by the new fancier plugs. Speaking of 'new', I wonder if the NEW M5 will be resizable?

So far so good. I haven't had any major problems using M5 on my MBpro. And it's so much better than my G4MDD. I had to use about twelve 3-minute loop tracks in realtime as I didn't have the time to crop them. I laid them out chromatically, and triggered them literally back to back with no problems, and the timing was nice and tight. Right on Machy!!!
