+1 there Mike, thanks for these, nice to cop a bit of the atmos for us lowly souls that were unable to attend.

Its actually quite strange, i can go for hours and it works fine, other times i start up the same session (therefore same plug-ins) and get cpu errors , i have watched the cpu meter and it does not even spike, i have just built a windows box to try out the Windows version and see if it behaves the same, having said that i am quite new to Protools myself so no expert by any means, perhaps one of the long time PT users might be able to advise you better..

Works nicely over here in the lowlands, but takes more cpu power than 7.4 and maccie doens't like that very much(cpu overload :x ). So i'm considering an other box(maybe low budget  hackingtosh).
I can confirm that the digi folks are thrifty with information regarding system and software configurations.

Careful before you throw more money into hardware Bokkie this cpu overload thing seems to be affecting people from macbooks up to the latest macpros i have a feeling that a point release might be following in the not too distant future..

I just bought an mbox and protools 7.4 this afternoon but with the free upgrade to 8, spent the whole afternoon installing it all downloading the 8 upgrade and having a little play, must say i am a little daunted but it looks and feels awesome very impressed so far.
Now to sit down with a drink and read the bloody manual

Did it come with the video tutorial DVD? I found that a total lifesaver when I got started. Still have it on my phone as an mp4 for revision purposes...

Just dug out all the bundled stuff that was in with the Mbox2 that i haven't even got round to looking at yet, and lo and behold an instructional DVD, nice one , thanks Tom...

I've watched the vid repeatedly and noted as many references as I could spot.  Most of the lyrics have some sort of visual representation, but there are plenty of other things to see here.

That a scheme I hatched only yesterday is, after much slicing, hacking, gluing and soldering, well on the way to fruition and might yet be completed in time for Saturday night.

Intriguing, do tell??

Also thanks, all seems to have gone fine although morphine seems to be her friend at the moment

That my wife yesterday has just had a half knee replacement at 44 years of age, fu*ked it was, bloody volleyball :twisted:

Anyway back on topic, nice one Gr8onzo, really nice job well done

My apologies in advance.

It is only during the "Relive my life" section that it doesn't fit but for the rest this is quite good. Hmmm... please more mashups like this.
