Thanx Peter.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Yes, a really good guide.

Just make sure to fist fully backup your computer and know where your original driver's are located, just in case you need to replace them.

I was experimenting with removing certain drivers and windows installed its own drivers, this giving me hassle.

It took me a while to find and download the original from the components manufacturer.

Better be safe than sorry.

I love Gig Performer. Much better than using Helix Native trough a DAW. Looking forward to the new version being released.

I bought mine through Plugin Alliance, so I hope they will have reasonable pricing for the upgrade. I only got mine in November or December, can't remember... and am a bit gutted that only after using it a few times (still learning its features), there is going to be a new version in June.

Anyway, the above guide made good improvements in my sound setup and I thought it would be a good idea spreading the word!

Looking forward reading the second edition when you post it.

Thanks

I'm not familiar with that word, and could only find a reference to a Vietnamese author?

This "que" always reminds me of Latin (when suffixed, it means "and").
