Hi Chris,
Thanks. I don't know this person. I was just contacted as a result
of my post on the Avid blog regarding Pro Tools. In fact, it was a
friend of this guy who reached out to me so I'm not so invested in
it. Knowing that he's more of a PC guy and not terribly up on
technology, I'm just pointing him in a starting direction.
Cheers,
Slau
