Re: Any way to disable some of Avid's new shortcuts?

Re: Melodyne

As I recently commented in this other thread, http://duc.avid.com/showpost.php?p=2500981&postcount=12

Re: Sound card recommendations?

Gotcha. Well, I received a PM last month asking how I liked my setup and motherboard, and since this was my thread I figured I'd post an update. I'll try to stick to horrible no-good news updates...

I'm not an engineer, I don't do "major" engineering projects. I'm a performer with a small songwriting studio, who occasionally does side projects for fellow artists. And I've had...

Re: Sound card recommendations?
