    Various questions involving PowerMac 7100, 8100 and Pro Tools

    You can get it straight from the horse's mouth, actually: http://archive.digidesign.com/download/legacy/sc2mac/ I rambled a bit about the SampleCell here: https://rven.se/samplecell/ It's a nice workflow. If you like to get experimental, TurboSynth, SampleCell and a sequencer combine to make...

    Various questions involving PowerMac 7100, 8100 and Pro Tools

    I don't know for certain if it applies to ProTools authorizations, but I've that these copy protected disks tend to use the floppies in somewhat non-standard ways (to prevent copying) that USB floppy drives don't know how to read. Something about a USB floppy drive being less directly controlled...

    Various questions involving PowerMac 7100, 8100 and Pro Tools

    I never bothered with the floppies, but I still have them. I don't think they have authorizations left on them, anyway, so I just relied on cracks. All of this was a while ago, but I'm fairly sure everything came from this archive...

    Various questions involving PowerMac 7100, 8100 and Pro Tools

    I had a setup with ProTools 4.2, I think it was, on a 7100/80 (the last version you can get to run on System 7 by installing a newer version of OpenTransport). I bought two different setups without computers and set everything up myself. I did get some floppies with one of the bundles I got but...

    alternatives for WPA2 networking under OS9

    Yeah, I'm sceptical about MAC filters and limiting connections as well. Hiding your wifi is also purely cosmetic. Not sure if anyone's brought up a coffee shop-style captive portal (I think some routers have that built in now?), but that's also a nuisance more than actual security. A 50...

    alternatives for WPA2 networking under OS9

    Let's just say that I'm well aware of how easy it is to overcome WEP. It used to be quite handy :) The legal responsibility you mention is not, to my knowledge, entirely universal and I honestly think you're overstating the risk. Maybe it depends on where you live. Either way, there are easier...

    alternatives for WPA2 networking under OS9

    What are the actual risks of WEP cracking? Isn't it just that it's easy for someone to join your network? If your internal services are somewhat secured (as they should be) and the sites you use are HTTPS for anything important (as they dmn well should be!), it seems to me that the main risk is...

    MacGUI Downloads gone

    Nobody should be forced to be on the internet in any way. I hope the person who runs/ran that site is doing well and that everyone remembers to respect their position. But I think it goes to show that it's better for All Of Us that infrastructure isn't dependent on One Of Us, and that valuable...

    Announcing ZuluSCSI Pico (Open Source Hardware)

    This looks fantastic! Can I ask a general question about your platform, how tied up is the RP2040? Are both ARM cores in use?

    Announcing MacTasks - "To do" list for the classic Mac

    Thanks for the pointer. I looked into null events, and I think they're actually enabled by default? At least they're not part of the event mask. Anyway, I was a little puzzled (put off, TBH) by the amount of work that the documentation tells you to do when implementing an EventFilter procedure...

    Announcing MacTasks - "To do" list for the classic Mac

    Just now returning to this, I've tried changing the code as you suggest, but I'm not sure how it's supposed to work. I'm using ModalDialog in a do-loop, and that blocks until an event happens, so I obviously can't update anything inside the loop. Is the solution to implement the "filterProc" and...

    Digidesign d24 PCI Card

    Unfortunately I just tried and there's no way the d24 can fit in the computer I have. It's a small PC thin client, and the card is a bit too tall to fit in the riser, and without the riser there's an ethernet part in the way. So unless I can do it from a Sawtooth G4 with OS 9 I'm afraid I can't...

    Digidesign d24 PCI Card

    I have a couple of non-24 bit 882s and I haven't been able to make them work. Apogee made a compatible box that's meant to be much higher quality that I've been considering getting, but I'm not sure if it's worth it for me. I'm not exactly short on ways to record audio... I have an EEPROM...

    Digidesign d24 PCI Card

    I've got one, but I've never made it work - I *think* the problem was that it needs an audio interface connected to it (because the interface is the clock master? I think?), and the ones I have are too old. So the card might not work. I also think I have a working PC with a PCI slot that has...

    TashIO: Clone of BeeHive Technologies's ADB I/O

    Yeah, a fully automatic dough kneader-flattener and automated cheese grating. Reading the application notes, I see mentions of controlling this with Telnet via Hypercard? Wild stuff...

    TashIO: Clone of BeeHive Technologies's ADB I/O

    ... I don't drink and I don't like compacts! How about a pizzabox-driven pizza maker?

    Well, I accidentally an original Beehive (15EUR). Wonder what to do with it.

    Oops! I may have messed up (Broken LCIII?)

    Does the adapter or drive have termination?

    Sawtooth ATX PSU conversion

    Yeah, that's what I thought. You mean rehouse the PSU basically? Interesting idea, hadn't thought about that.

    Sawtooth ATX PSU conversion

    Interesting, I've been wondering the same thing. Most of the ATX PSUs I've looked at have a power switch on the back and the AC plug in what appears to be the wrong place. But I don't think that layout is part of the standard at all. I've seen the pinout and quite a few people who say they've...
