The old site - http://www3.digidesign.com - is still up while these issues are addressed.

The old Structure page is here.

But on that page there is only a full installer for a Tiger version and a 1.0.3 update installer for Leopard. Which one does a person download to end up with the correct one?

It is the worst sight I have ever seen. Worrisome is, it may be a glimpse in the mindset of the company; clueless.

You'll need to run the full installer first, then use one of the updaters if you're using a post-Tiger OS.

I wanted (and still want!) a simple 96io Windows standalone driver to use on a Mac (with PC Paralells) so that I can use my 96io with my XP / Parallels as a standard soundcard.

Google brings up the links to certain drivers, BUT when clicked they all go just to the FRONT page of this god awful website!

COMPLETELY USELESS...

I can't find anything on that new design? Why did they touch it???

Here's something I found totally weird.

If you go to the products section, clicking on 'Audio Midi Interfaces' only shows certain M-Audio products.
To find any 'Digidesign' interfaces you have to go to 'Digital Audio Workstations'.

Hmm. So the 192 I/O isn't an audio interface and m-audio products aren't part of a DAW system? What the hell...
And which category does the eleven rack fit under? Couldn't find it...

Could we just have big, obvious sections for Audio/post vs Visual stuff?
And then create a HD, LE, and M-Audio section within the main Audio section?

It's REALLY difficult and unpleasant trying to go through this new site.

If you think the new Avid site changes are bad, you should see
what they just went through at Harmony-central.com...
...although the management at Harmony-central just had the good
sense to back out the worst changes after weeks of user complaints.

This is what happens when you bring in new unexperienced people to cut costs at any company.

Remember when a bunch of the staff left last year? It's becoming clear they knew things were heading in a new direction and wisely bailed while the company still had a good rep.
