monitoring the computer mix. It was counter-intuitive
to use this thing all the way right when not even connected to a computer,
but there you go...

So now I have an incredibly playable, fantastic sounding, great recording
digital piano and it only took me three years of screwing around with shitty
MIDIMAN and ROLAND USB midi controllers, different versions of GIGA and HALION,
different computers, licensing snafus...

So I've been playing this rig for about a week and feeling really good and
my giga box has started spontaneousl

day....and hey! what do you know? It still works. So far, anyway....

Ouch! That has to hurt.
We all need to admit that the things we love and hate about or tools are
generally arbitrary and often emotional rather than practical.
That said, it good to see you can appreciate the G5 for its beauty and elegance…even
if it is “overpriced.”

I still like both platforms, but more and more I think I use PCs just to
prove to myself that I can build them and keep them running. (When I write
it down it look silly.)

P.S. I’ve said this before…

As a shoebox style organizer, and a self-proclaimed searching fanatic, I
love Spotlight.
I can now find anything on all my drives (both mounted and stored away) plus
all my removable media and backups covering almost 30 years, in less than
10 seconds. (Well over 2 TB), and Spotlight searches can include finding
content inside files, not just the title and metadata.
A friend with a $20,000 IBM SAN at work recently complained to me that searches
across his 2TB SAN can take 15 minutes.
