Hi guys,

I was on this forum a good while back for a few posts but have sauntered away. I share the same sentiments regarding the jading of the DUC and I really like the new face and body of RO. Anyway, here's the Q...

I appologize if this is a dumb question, but I can't seems find the answer anywhere. I am looking to find the sequencer METRO because it was mentioned in the Deck mannual. Where can I find it? Is it freeware? OR How much? Is there a better product for general use? I am grateful for any enlightenment.
Thanks

Im just curious if anybody here has used this thing. It seems quite interesting for software. In fact I was thinking of getting some sort of va, but then it dawned on me I could just dedicate a cpu to reaktor.
It seems theres tremendous potential with it since its got a sampler plus all those types of synthesis as well.

Anybody out there use this impressive software?

what kind of latency could i expect from a MOTU 1224 or 1296 on a powermac g4 dual 533, 256Mb RAM (to start) and running ASIIO-compliant software (either DP or cubase). eventually, i plan on upgrading to an ultra160 SCSI controller and drives; will this affect latency or only affect track count?

Hi Gang,
I'll give you guys the set-up first. I track 75% real audio(full bands)/25% midi projects to a mac hard drive medium.
Concern - Improve warmth/fat on tracking vocals/bass/overall mixes

Fletcher,
I've seen you mention that you liked the Lucid converters. Which unit(s) have you heard. I'm thinking about ADA1000 and the 9624 pair. Is the 9624 worth the extra $1000+?

Hi,
Is there a difference in sound quality between the A8o outputs and the Mec's?
If so, which outputs are preferable for 2-bus analog compression?

in the next few months i am piecing a new macintosh DAW together, probably the dual 533. i use MIDI and live audio quite a bit, and Pro Tools is not an option at this point. my software choices are down to DP 3.0, logic 4.7, and Cubase 5; with spark 2.0 as a sample editor. all are in the same price range, so i'm at odds.

I was just asked to go on tour & do live recording for a live record. I'm planning on using Pro Tools to capture the performances. I'm going to take feeds from the FOH board which is actually less than 22 feeds (with 4 audience mics). While is sounds simple enough, I've never done it. It is a world tour, so adapters/conveters are an issue too.

I'm trying to swap samples between an Akai s3000 and a Mac G4 via scsi/Recycle/VST. My akai samples are stored on Jaz disks and the Mac attempts to format them whenever I'm connected.

Is there a way to stop the Mac reading the Jaz (without affecting my interenal G4 Zip drive)?

Or, is there a better way to integrate akai and mac for sample exchanges?
