It's hard to get awayfrom that sound and move onto something else
JMI've been looking forward to hearing this CD. Let us know.

I'm mixing a project right now for a friend, Tim Sullivan, who has a one man
Broadway show going on called Diary of a Songwriter. It may be my first
chance at some exposure beyond the modest demo work I usually do here.

http://www.durangoherald.com/asp-bin/article_generation.asp? article_type=col
&article_path=/columnists/articles/annArticles/ann050608 .htm

Last night we were mixing and using all sorts of extraneous stuff and though
it sounded good, when we went back to the original tracks and just started
mixing using Paris and very little else, he just looked at me and said,
"man, let's just use this".........and that's exactly what we did.

Seems that less is more.

Yep. You have two options... one, pull the blue cd door down, and the
pinhole should be visible on the actual drive.

Or, as soon as you power up, keep pressing the "eject" button and you
should be able to get it to open before the bios grabs hold of it.

Try putting a spare drive in the G3, booting from the 9.1 cd, and
doing a fresh install of 9.1.

If you can get that to boot, you're good. It may be that the previous
installation ain't happy in the new digs -- I tried pulling the hard
drive out of m

y beige G3 that I use for Paris tracking up in the
treehouse at the theatre and transplanting it into a B&W G3/400 that I
inherited. No go. Did a fresh install, and life was golden.

BTW -- if you want to try that, and need the 9.2.1 and 9.2.2 updates,
and don't want to F**k with downloading 'em, I can mail you a cd.

I absolutely love Suzy. Been trying to get her to play our theatre
for a couple of years now -- just haven't been able to work it out
with her agent.

Can't wait to hear the new cd.

Are you in personal contact with Suzy? If so, could you

find out who
she's currently booking through? You can email me offlist.

pabYou can also try holding the mouse button down on power-up.
I think that'll eject the CD before it boots...

By the way - I had a problem w/ my new machine because the
previous owner didn't format the main drive to work w/ OS 9.
So when I tried to boot in OS 9 the computer couldn't "see" the
disk and it freaked out.

Good luck!

at 0 db... with an average RMS of -11.01 db.

you dont hear any distortion or clipping.... listening at various different
levels including very soft when its most audible.... at least to me.

so just for curiousity you decide to lower the submix faders 5 db each. now
the little read lights don't come on at all.

printing the mix completely mystifies me because it still shows peaks of
0db.... and instead of RMS being -16 db (5 l

the Option key all through the start-up process.
You should soon be presented with two or three icons of whatever available
bootable disks the Mac can see—including not only the CD itself but the "home"
drive. Of course, select the OSX drive and hit the continue arrow/icon. That
should do it. (NOTE: This will not work with more than one system installed
on a **single** hard drive—say, both OSX and OS9—but only those with more
than one drive/CD volume, etc.)

I hope this helps. Good luck and let us know how things work out. (I also
agree with some other poster here that reformatting the drive and loading
both OS9 and OSX would be the very best thing to do in any case. Again, just
be sure to set it up as OS9-bootable [from Disk Utility on the Install CD]
or the drive will only see OSX when you're finished. Anyway, you might as
well have a clean computer to start out with, IMO.)

Cheers,
Larry Hogan
