OT - the search facility isn't working for me...

[Bendrissa]

For some time, I've noticed that my searches are showing a seemingly random selection of threads which don't neccessarily contain my search criteria. I've tried everything. Anyone else experiencing this?

Working fine for me. Are you using quotation marks to narrow your search terms? i.e... if you search for "time code" using quotation marks you'll get results where the words 'time' and 'code' appear next to each other. If you don't use the quotation marks, then you'll get a lot more results as it will pull any threads that have the words 'time' and 'code' in them, even if the two words are nowhere close to each other in the thread. It's the same principal as google.

Thanks for the tip.

Use the + (plus) sign before multiple words to narrow the search down. If you type EQ Focusrite, you will get every result that mentions an EQ or any Focusrite product. However, if you type +EQ +Focurite, it will narrow your search to only those posts which have both of those words present.

hope it helps

Conversely, use the "-" key to ignore certain words. Looking for info on Focusrite compressors but not EQs...

+Focusrite +compressor -EQ
