Re: External Hard drive is hogging my processing p

Funny, I can run sessions fine and I am using a new Maxtor drive with almost exactly the same specs as yours. By fine I mean I can run 24 audio tracks on a PowerBookG4 1.33GHz with maybe 6-7 plugins.

Re: final volume levels in PT

thank you Infa, you should be a salesman for freakin' Waves because I think I will do that. I may also do that reading on mastering suggested earlier by another user. Maybe the combo of the two can...

Re: final volume levels in PT

Thank you cleft, Infa, and JFreak for your answers. All of those were very helpful. Sorry to be so difficult but I'm probably a very small fish compared to many on this forum. I'm just a home user...

Re: difference between POWr DIther and Dither

Yeah this definately helps. I will try to listen to the low level information and then decide for myself. It'll be some much needed 'ear practice' that all good producers/engineers need. Thanks.
