Hello List Members, If you haven't heard the news, here it is. The days of running Windows XP on our systems are or have come to an end. This means trouble for some of us that have a fancy to some audio editors, because they aren't compatible with VISTA. The audio editor of my choice is DC-7, but it doesn't interface to well with VISTA. I also found out that Studio Recorder doesn't work with VISTA at all.
I mean, I couldn't get it to work for me. I heard that there were problems with Total Recorder and getting it to work right the first time with VISTA. But when you want to upgrade to better audio hardware such as sound cards, the drivers have to be signed by Microsoft. Or else, the sound cards won't work. But what about today's MP3 players and ipods? In Windows XP, you don't need special drivers to load audio files on to them. But with VISTA, it's not simply plug and play. Now, you will have to get permission from Microsoft to do anything with audio hardware or any hardware of any kind. What's the point in that?I myself, am shopping around for a good deal on a Mack system. So if any of you have any tips or suggestions, I'd love to hear them. Tips and suggestions on things like screen reading software and audio editors for Macs. My best regards. John. PS.
