Anyone hear from Mac lately?
I miss the guy.
I hope he is happy and healthy and doesn't have a negative reason for making himself so scarce around here.

Ray said he talked with him recently.
Mac's brother assured me he was OK before the holidays.
Can't tell you much more than that.

"Hi Everyone. Just talked at length with Mac. All is well and good. Mac is deep in the woodshed, building an amp and designing a speaker box. He just wanted to take a break from BIAB and concentrate on his projects. He appreciates all your concerns for him. He will be back at some point. Later, Ray"
I posted this last May. He was doing just fine at that time. I thought he would be back by now. Later, Ray

Are any of the beta testers able (allowed??) to tell us if Mac was involved in testing BIAB2015?
Cheers,
Keith

Notes Me too! Among other things, his listening favorites (suggestions) have struck a chord here. (As have yours, Notes!)

That's two now that have retired from the biab forums.
Dani last week (who actually posted 37 songs in 2014 on user showcase) and Mac from a good few months ago.
I suppose some people cop on that there is more to life than biab and biab forums.
Mac was always a great help to everyone and am sure met some people on here that would try the patience of a saint.
Good luck to both of them.

I'm off this forum (all its branches) more than on, but when on I've been entertained and educated by Mac more times than I can think.
I had noticed a lack of recent posts by him and am very happy to hear things are OK with him.
So gidday, Mac,(if and) when you're back.
Clinton.

Put me down as a person who has benefited from Mac's knowledge. What a legacy he has on this forum. Another person who I miss is Gary Curran. I hope he is doing well. Dennis

I really miss Mac. We date back a long way. We met during the development of N-Track Studio with Flavio Antoniolli. We had great fun on FA Soft forums.

Mac is a class act, I would dearly love to speak with him but I lost his phone number when I changed phones about 6-7 months ago.
Later,
