Re: Formatting a HD for MAC and Windows

This isn’t a solution in your situation (as I’m assuming the Macs are not yours) - however for others looking here… For years I’ve used Paragons’ ‘Microsoft NTFS for Mac’ with no problems - running attached drives natively formatted (APFS nowadays) but also having full read/write access to NTFS driv...

Re: Telefunken/Neumann/akg c12/251 questions

Indeed, I’ve have had to remind myself many times that nobody knows nor will they care what microphone was used. So very easy to get caught up. Abs….

Re: What analog EQ for what purpose

‘fetish’ is a good description in my view of this type of discussion. When I started out in the seventies an engineer had access pretty much only to the desk EQ and a couple of outboard units.

Re: Thinking of moving to Logic.

What hasn’t been mentioned Arp (and is worth pointing out in my view) is cost. If you have a Mac then at circa £200 Logic, in comparison with the others out there is an absolute bargain.
