Is Spotlight OK if mixing?
I find it terribly inconvenient that they recommend disabling Apple's Spotlight. How about if we don't do tracking. Is it still mandatory to disable?

Re: Is Spotlight OK if mixing?
I've never disabled spotlight -- just changed the key-command.
spotlight is a resource pig on a new drive, but once indexed, I rarely see any activity. I keep activity monitor open and watch these things... spotlight is not an enemy.

Go to Spotlight in your sys prefs - click privacy - click the + to add your audio/video drives.
Close prefs. Leave spotlight on, otherwise. |
