Re: What's a good PTLE 8 reference book?

There is an actual Reference guide for PT8 in print. It is huge and will tell you everything you need to know. Just check Digis site. I think its ~$30.

Re: external hard drive recommendation for MBox 2 Pro new macbook pro

using that one right now. So far so good. Way better than my WD drive. I can come back an hour later, hit the spacebar, and the music starts right up.

Re: WD drive is killing me

Yeah, WD actually said, " don't plug it into a surge protector or a battery backup." I'm thinking it is probably a good idea to try the FW400 port just to use a different cable and see what happens....

Re: MIDI and Virtual Instrument Problem on Imported Sessions

Hmmm. Not sure. I tested the MIDI to see if it was working in the IO section and the little blue arrow lights up but no sound.

Where is this check box you speak of?
