Fwd: Digidesign Pro Tools Leopard News

Over the last several months, we have been working closely with Apple on fine tuning Pro Tools for OS X Leopard 10.5.3. Now that Apple has released version 10.5.3 we can enter the final stages of performance testing and quality assurance before making fully qualified versions of Pro Tools HD, LE and M-Powered software available to our customers.

As a convenience for our customers who may wish to begin their transition to Apple's latest Leopard release as soon as possible, pre-release versions of Pro Tools 7.4.2 will be made available in the next few days. While the pre-release versions of Pro Tools 7.4.2 have passed core internal testing requirements, the process for manufacturing fully qualified Pro Tools software normally takes up to several weeks to complete depending on performance and stability.

Apogee Ensemble looks like it wont be shipped out until 6/8/08


Well it looks like Apogee wont be shipping the Ensemble until the week of 6/8 so I guess I wont have it for the recoding starting 6/6 oh well. Hopefully some time soon it will arrive its been 6 weeks already. I really hope it will be worth the wait. I am stuck with two channels right now using just the Duet by Apogee. I used to use the Motu 828mkII

Allegro Express FW400


Just added this to the Apple Mac Pro 2.8 Dual Quad Tower yesterday.
Add More Fire(Wire) Power toYour Arsenal
Does your computer have enough FireWire connections for your digital device collection? When performance is a must, rely on FireWire 400—it's the interface found on most high-speed peripherals. From DV camcorders, audio interfaces, and external drives, to digital cameras and scanners, thousands of devices connect to computers via FireWire. For many users, there's just one small problem—a lot of computers don't have FireWire 400 ports (even the latest Mac Pro computers only have two). We have a simple solution to this dilemma—install Sonnet's Allegro™ Express FW400 to instantly add two FireWire 400 connections to your computer!

Allegro Express FW400 features full-bandwidth, independently powered FireWire 400 ports, and each one supports data transfer rates at up to 400 Mbits/s. This card also powers bus-powered devices (such as external drives and audio interfaces), so there is no need to connect an external power supply on some devices. With no drivers to install, Allegro Express FW400 offers simple plug and play installation that enables you to add the connections you need in minutes.
Key Benefits
Simple way to add two FireWire 400 ports to any compatible computer
Easy installation—plug and play—no drivers to install
Provides fast interface to download videos from your digital camcorder, transfer files to external drives, and more

Good News From Lester Devoe today


Hello Victor,
Today, I'll be gluing the back on your new guitar. It is looking very nice! Do you want the total with UPS shipping options or do you want to wait until the guitar is ready to send? Not so long to wait now! Thanks for your patience.
Blessings,
Lester

Omnisphere - Psychoacoustic Sampling


A very interesting clip on how we hear (Perceive) and react (respond) Much like what we at LightHouse Network are teaching in the Mark 12.30 Project. I found this very interesting. Its like our brain is the ultimate computer and we take the information and filter it and make sense of in in the same way a microphone takes a sound puts it thought a pre amp and then gets converted in a AD and AD processor like the Apogee Duet or Ensemble. (AD= Analog to Digital) (DA Digital to Analog) then the brain maps it through a sync process. In music we call that the jitter or master time clock when the signal gets jittery and not in sync nose is generated and it dose not sound very good. Found all of this very interesting click above to hear the whole conversation.

Having a Migraine at 2:21am This is what my brain may look like right now



A migraine headache is characterized by an intense, throbbing pain, most often on one side of the head and sometimes involving the neck. Extreme sensitivity to light and sound, nausea and vomiting, and coldness in the hands or feet may accompany the migraine headache.
An "aura," a visual disturbance that appears as flashing lights, jagged lines, or a temporary vision loss sometimes occurs before the headache. Migraines typically occur 1 to 4 times per month and last, on average, from 4 to 72 hours. Migraine triggers are numerous and include lack of food or sleep, bright lights, hormonal changes (in women), anxiety, stress, weather changes, and certain drugs.

Ive put a link to more info above.
