I think their current culture is toxic for both. Their hardware is polished but IMHO has prioritized form over function at an extreme level, and seems to be developed in complete i…

+1 for the slack add - christopher [at] tunecrew [dot] com

Thanks - well I can still use all the performance bumps from the add-ons even if I stay in 10.7, but I'll let you know how it goes with 10.8 to start with.

This is one of the reasons people purchase the Mac Pro, so you can stick cards in them (audio, video, data capture, networking, RAID, etc.)

The Mac Pro is a beast - I am still running a first gen MacPro1,1 - it's got an IDE drive installed in the second optical bay, four 3.5 SATA drives in the main bays and 2 2.5 SATA …

Does this mean you have chosen not to work with labels (indie or otherwise) or just that the majority of takeup has been from unsigned artists?

A couple interesting places: DJ Tech Tools forums (a lot of stuff about controllerism and related hacking topics) - http://forums.djtechtools.com/ Create Digital Music - http://www…

That's very interesting- I really like the buy/sell aspect for projects instead of just the usual "find a cofounder" thing. First comment, however, is I don't see search anywhere- …

Are you doing something or interested in the music/media space, especially the business side of it? I'm currently looking for possibilities and people to work with in this space in…

Here's a suggestion to help artists - for every track downloaded which is not directly assigned to a copyright holder, put an amount equal to the industry average for US DPDs, say …

You might be curious to know that the Burger King in Half Way Tree (a major crossroads in Kingston for those who don't know) had something like the largest grossing grand opening o…

I was referring to using something like Amazon services for rendering

Except that you would have to pipe giga/terabytes of data to/from the cloud - that is why lots of in house rendering and catalogue systems use Fibre Channel and similar technologie…

Audio professionals editing large surround sessions with lots of plugins and lots of tracks for one (plus you need 3-4 or more PCIe slots to stick Pro Tools or similar DSP cards in…

Instead of Beluga, how about launching a nice tool that with one click lets content owners remove all of their unlicensed content from Grooveshark, block all of it from being re-up…

no mostly Java with smatterings of C, Perl, PHP, Python + Obj C

Kingston, Jamaica also, and the Caribbean is NOT South America

Nick Parlante is a GREAT instructor!

cool class even though I failed my EE qual session with Prof Widom :)

maybe the best candidate would be the one who hacked into their blog and and added a few thousand votes to their own post... having said that, i'm not sure i would want to do busin…
