Event : Drool Over This: NAB Photos - macmusicNAB has wound up being a blockbuster show, not just for video people but audio people, as well. I've talked to a number of people coming back from Las Vegas with drool all over their shirts from all the new gear. One of the drool-afflicted is our friend Scott Shepard, who sends us galleries full of lust-worthy photos!

Gallery 1: Apple presentation; break out the champagne!
Gallery 2: HP's Fiorina keynote (with Oprah!), Apple booth, Digidesign console
Gallery 3: Did we mention this show is HUGE? Show floor, with the future MacMusic News Truck

Apple : OSX 10.3.4, be careful when it'll be released ! - macmusicDevelopers are beta testing since a week the future 10.3.4 release of OSX. Be aware that despite retouching bugs here and there, Apple is making changes into important parts of the OS and, most of all, important parts for us: Core Audio, OpenGL, Graphics, Core OS, High Level Toolbox. It also corrects things on SCSI drives, iPods, USB flash media (think USB keys) and PCMCIA cards management. And last: updates to Audio FireWire and USB 2.0 connectivity for the iPod. It seems to me to be on the cautious side of thing. The update is supposedly a correcting one, but as it touches a lot of stuff you may use, some for work, try before you switch! For the release date, ask Apple, they are bug chasing now ;)

Music Software : 1.08 MachFive Update; Essential for Pro Tools 6.4 - macmusicMOTU has released an update to its MachFive sampler with enhanced compatibility. The RTAS/HTDM update is required for ProTools users who upgrade to ProTools version 6.4 under OS X; AU, MAS, and VST versions have also been updated. Updated versions of UviX and the Interlok Extensions (for copy protection) are also included in the installer.

Ed: TIP -- a quick run through the MOTU site reveals other compatibility information. They have a page dedicated to compatibility with Native Instruments products, G5 compatibility, and all the MOTU development partners for the latest compatible stuff. (Sorry, no direct URLs available, but look for 'featured links' on the site.) -PK
