These are just suggestions. You can choose to ignore or not up to you.

Hi Mr Helms, you make good points - I just havent got the time - or frankly - inclination right now - given my mood wrt BIAB and PG - to repost all the material here.

But what I will say its my guess that quite a few of the beta testers would very likely be also lurking - nay even commenting - on the BB user forums maybe even this one. And just maybe - if they happened to be here they might just want to visit one of the off limits beta forums - where they will see clearly all of my past bug reports - already pretty well documented - with instructions as to replicability, screen shots by the gazillion etc etc.

They are welcome to make comments or requests to me there - as to replicability and I'll be glad to help. But not here.

Time I'm afraid simply doesnt allow me to copiously cut and paste all the info I shared there here.

And it goes without saying that if any PG developer DOES need more input from me as to replicability - they - or a PG rep - are welcome to just reply to my bug reports and I'll do my utmost to help them. Once I see any of those reports actually getting evidence of having been attended to by PG staff.

I am not a BETA but on what looks to be same system m4ProMini. I don't seem to be having issues but I am not using it for serious stuff, just woodshedding. I would be intirued to know how you're using it.

When the DAW first came along I quite liked it, but more recent iterations I am not so fond of. So I have gone back to using BIAB and the dragging what I need across to Logic.
