Good idea, Windoze. We’ve been thinking of adding a readme file to every directory with the info that used to be on the download board for each download respectively.

we need to make one dir Pro Tools then dirs with version numbers then everything related goes in there

Well, I think that an earthquake is good now and again to shake things up. A good and constructive alternative to complaining would be to find a new solution to the serial problem. But complaining and pointing fingers is always easier of course.

Post your ideas and solutions to the problems you are seeing in the Staff forum and lets discuss, Protools5LEGuy.

At least for serials put them in a text-file right next to the installer on the hotline server.

That is another reason to have the "old" download pages still intact and leading to the actual Hotline. We had the serial on every Protools download before the Hotline update. The retention inside MacOS9Lives! forum is smaller than before. Now you have to go to the "outsider" garden/repository to get to the serial when we had that info here before Knez/110 earthquake.

Protools5LEGuy is probably meaning otboard A/D and D/A converter, not another card.
Audiomedia III, when used as digital I/O only card is very very good.
I've been using it with all sorts of converters with very good results. Still have 6 of them
A/D and D/A chips on AMIII are of cheap variety, though.

Hello, you're probably right, I read too quikly. Perhaps my Tascam DA-P1 could do the job? I have to check this.

Hey joevt and robespeirre, thanks for your time and the additional detailed input. Again, not all here are concerned with MIDI and DAW, etc. Initially this was intended for those tired of continuously fumbling around attempting to attach basic USB devices to the backside of their machines. And oddly enough, I did find one (powered) hub that I already had here which MOTU recommended way back when / then. (See inserted image, bottom.)

               

Both the two Targus USB 2.0 hubs that I have use Genesys Logic GL850G controllers.



Maybe the recently ordered, newer, ACH215 Targus 7-port USB 2.0 hub will have the GL854G?

      [Nope. Changed from Genesys Logic to TERMINUS TECHNOLOGY INC. v1.11]

       


                  Also have an Entrega, “MacHub4U” - recommended by MOTU.

                   

Can’t find the actual specs for the Entrega and I’m not likely to use USB Prober for these hubs primarily intended for sneaker-net thumb drives. However again, information good to know for those more MIDI and DAW-inclined among us.

AND… I don't know why USB Prober.app says "Multi TT Hub configured as a Single TT Hub" instead of just "Single TT Hub".

Could be that some or all of those hub controllers noted as Multi TT on the Genesys Logic website could also be “Multi TT Hub configured as a Single TT Hub”?

Caveat Emptor, indeed!
 

For all of you past… and potential Quicksilver PSU recappers, 68kMLA member (@obsolete) has posted a more inclusive capacitor list for the Quicksilver AcBel PSUs. In that thread it’s also mentioned that removing the heatsink (12 solder points and two screws) allows for easier access to the caps. I have requested a photo of those solder points and hope to attempt this when time allows.

*Corrected a missing "i" in Quicksilver above.

Many thanks to you, Protools5LEGuy, your first code worked like a charm!

Now, you‘re probably right about acquiring a better card in today’s standard but will my old (vintage, rare!) ears notice a big difference? At the moment I’ll focus on some sound transfer.

Thank you again (what a team!).
