I started a thread about my solution to this a while ago. Heres what I did: In OSX, set your screensaver to blank, and whatever timer you want. If i remember correctly, OSX doesn't come with a blank screensaver, i had to download one. Then set up a "hot corner" to start up your screensaver. I can't...

I have had clients looking at the meters in the screen saying: "what's that channel? it looks really soft, can you turn it up?"

Checked the Massey free plugins site and looks like the "listen" plugin is for protools only.

bummer

Thanks Nick,
This is exactly what I was looking for.
Unfortunately I don't use protools, but DP. I'll try and see if Massey offers this for AU as well as he did for his excellent tapehead nedium.
Do you use the "listen" plugin too?

thanks again

Turning screen to black?

Hi all, When I have clients listening to the mix with me I like, if they're ok with that, to switch off the computer monitors because I notice that sometimes they tend to get too much interested in what's going on on screen. I guess my mixes aren't too exciting.. I'd like to know if there is an util...

I can't offer more than, say, 200$ because the mic and the ps are lacking their covers.

Deal?

he DID post the link! oh boy.. On second thought his mixing approach saves you the pain and expense of buying monitors. In the future clients will not give you your music to mix, they will just tell you what genre it is and you will give them a link to download some software along with a .txt file w...

I've used it once with pretty good results but I don't know if they offer a demo.

Thanks a lot everybody. This almost never happens at home/studio. It's always while I'm abroad (a lot of times). Unfortunately I don't have access to the router since I'm in an hotel/theater and they guard their routers closely.. Makes sure "Configure IPV4" says "using DHCP". Then click the big "ren...

The dreaded "self assigned IP"

Hi all, from time to time, with various routers and airport configurations, my MacBookPro likes to stop being able to connect to internet and, when asked about what's wrong, says that he has a self assigned IP and may not be able to connect to the internet. Some silly workarounds sometimes give resu...

Looks really cool, I don't know it though. I think your best bet is to write the makers of that "toy" and ask a sincere opinion about your doubts. On second thought i seems like any >5 years old child can use a computer quite well, so he/she should have no problem with that, given also that you'll w...

Hi, it is not entirely clear to me how many channels of AD does your rosetta have? My very personal opinion is that, nowadays, features are more important than absolute quality. But your choice also depends on your setup: What do you use for monitoring? By this I mean to ask if you monitor your inpu...

Hi there, Are you not satisfied of the quality of your conversion? That's strange.. I don't think that the mk III will upgrade your current setup for the sole reason that the conversion chips nowadays are, according to several respectable sources, pretty much all in the same ballpark, at least the o...
