an across this cheapy DVD recorder. SURE it was 4
times the budget, but it had a couple of really nifty features. Firstly,
itr would record DVD's (obviously) and my old VHS VCR became a tape destruction
device a good couple of years back and I've never found it in myself to waste
money on another given the technology was obviously moving toward the out
door at considerable pace. Secondly, it has a Firewire/DV port on the front,
so I can plug my digital video camera straight in and convert to DVD without
even having to fire up the PC.
But it was the little USB plug on the front which really got me wondering.
I asked to read the manual but there was no information in there to indicate
what may or may not be an acceptable peice of hardware to plug in. I figured
memory sticks were a sure thing to work, but wasn't so sure on the HDD front.
Some of you may remember a post here a little back asking whether USB HDD's
spoke the same talk as memory sticks.
Well I borrowed a USB external HDD from a guy at work, and WOOHOO! It initially
wouldn't read the NTFS formatted disk, and it doesn't seem to see anything
past the first partition, but it seems so long as you format the drive with
FAT32 it works fine.
So for the price of an external HDD case, and an external HDD, I'll be able
to have many gigs of MP3's constantly on call. If I want to dump more MP3's
on the HDD I simply unplug the HDD from the DVD recorder and plug it into
the laptop... dump the MP3's and plug it back in.
I'm also thinking of getting a USB stick MP3 player. My boss has one he bought
for about $120 which is 1 gig in size and just plugs in like a memory stick.
Then I can take MP3's with me, and if I want to listen on the main stereo
just plug it in...
The digital world really is getting cooler...
Cheers,
Kim.I've heard the same thing since Apple aquired Emagic. Since that purchase,
Digidesign has instructed all of their Plugin Partners to had all of their
Plugins PC compatible asap. it's been 3 years since the Emagic purchase,
and it seems that all of Digi's plugin partners have all of thier plugins
PC ready.
Note: Avid's largest stockholders Microsoft. They Microsoft have invested
alot of money in AVID/Digidesign to have it's current markey position. So
all in all, each side have "drawn' their swords.
I agree Motu is in a crazy spot. Thank God, they got into the hardware business
which has carried them.
My advice,is to stay tuned. this is sure to get pretty interesting. What
surprised me is with the Yamaha/Steinberg deal. I and a lot of other Steinberg
users where hoping for some cool integrated products or more affordale controller
for SX/Nuendo. Oh well..

>Kim.When Apple acquired and released FCP at the NAB show some years back, there
was a major backlash from Avid and Adobe. They say that people from Avid
were talking about dumping Apple at the show, it didn't happen. Adobe did
stopped support for Premier. I do think that it is a possibility that Digi
could drop support for Apple. IMO they would piss off a lot of people if
they did. However, I think both companies would survive it.
There is some talk about Apple bundling all there pro apps, and tighter integration.
There is supposed to be big announcements from Apple in april at NAB. Maybe
this is some of the fuel on the fire???
If you can, wait until the NAB show to see what happens. I wouldn't make
a decision based on a rumor.

See, if I had have read the front page better:
"News Flash! Roger Nichols Digital officially becomes a Digidesign Plug-in
Developer. TDM plug-in versions will be in development as soon as our programmers
figure out how to steam open the FedEx package containing the Developer Tools."
;o)
....I really am quite embarrased. ;o)
Cheers,
Kim.Just purchased Drumagog [4.03] at NAMM. Runs fine in my WIN 2000 audio apps.
But... can't seem to get Paris to see it. I searched the forum, and tried
a couple of things there, but no luck. I apologize if I missed the answer.
I'm using win 98 SE for PARIS [dual boot machine]. None of my VST .dll files
appear in the designated VST folder. So, is this a Win 98 issue?
I have a project coming up soon, where I know Drumagog will really help.
Thanks in advance for any help.Here...Here... I'll second that.!!
