Can you imagine, Billy Idol used ProTools and SVP in 1993?!

He mentioned this in quite a few interviews, and that is what brought me here to this forum, and to use SVP, and to buy the G4 QS. Again moving away from wintel machines.

The tightness, that weird new approach of that album fascinated me.

Attached an excerpt playlist of the album, I must admit not all tracks are good 😊

You already know that I am in favor of the like button. I consider it favorable because in current times, those of us who are fans of old hardware, as they say in Spanish "we already have gray hair", and many times life does not give you time to investigate or delve into everything we want, we see a post with very interesting information but that requires spending time if you want to apply it, they are not cooking recipes, they are sometimes engineering projects. So you can't just write and leave a comment, because you need to reread it and have a calm moment to understand it and ask questions. Then a "like" shows the author that you like their work, that you appreciate it, and then I save the link, I subscribe so as not to lose the thread, and when my life allows me to dedicate time to it, I will return there and then I will raise my questions. doubts or my results.

I'm going to give an example, do you know the series "Dark" that aired on Netflix? I liked it a lot, but it is a series that you have to watch calmly, follow the thread so as not to lose the plot. Well, its creators released another series of the style. 1899. The first season aired on Netflix and its continuation was canceled. The reason? Well, Netflix counts the success of the series in the number of views in the first week of broadcast. Since Dark fans knew that by 1899 they had to pay attention, they waited for a "good" moment to see it, and since that moment was after the first week, the series was canceled. If the series had had a "like" button, fans would surely have gotten tired of clicking the button, and later would have looked for the perfect time to watch it. But since Netflix did not receive feedback on what 1899 meant for its subscribers, it canceled it "believing" that it was not liked.

A survey of the average age of the users would be needed to see that we are not a usual control group, we are a profile of ages and tastes anchored in the year 2000 (I say this for OS9).

Thank you for the effort you make in keeping the forum active.

I like that downloads are accesible again thru an Mac OS 9 machine. I could still download them from Windows or Mac OS X before, but for a purist user with only a Mac OS 9 machine (are you really that offuscated?) was a plus.

I understand that youtube links "break" compatibility with OS 9 browsers, but the forum was clearly richer and more visual when we had youtube links in screen. And the videos were clickable/watchable within the forum.

More than 10 "rich" post from me have been ruined (or screwed) with this "you have a Mac OS 9 browsable"post policy. There should be a place where youtube links and mini player are allowed.

I browse the forum 60 percent on my smartphone, 30 percent on a windows machine and 9 percent on Mac OS X. Only browse it on 9  to download attachments from post that I am afraid of it loose its fork.

Ditching youtube videos has made the forum some steps backward IMHO.

We could put a flag (Youtube Content) or something similar for the user that is running Mac OS 9 to not click in. Or make a zone where YT links are full and allowed.

I'm a fan of the Like button too. I don't often have a lot of time to write out responses to everything I read, but for posts that I've found helpful it's a nice and easy way to acknowledge the poster.

are you still in contact with V1? i havent seen him for ages.

last i´ve spoken to within the network itself was the gloarbline man.
