[RWP] Performing actions to a large number of tracks.

Remember, an oppinion given isn't an oppinion forced.

Also thoughts are given to everybody, not just for one.

I am spoiled by midimag, where one is more or less allowed to be a human being, guess I'll never get used to how people want to try and force.
folks in to little boxes and separate all the little boxes completely.

My mind just doesn't work that way.

Anyway, our studio more resembles a small commercial facility now than the typical home studio, and it has greatly benefited us, pulling work from other states,
folks flying in, etc.

That was beyond our expectations.

NO formal training but 35 years working in the field as a gigging musician and studio guy gives me some idea of what's going on, and I have many projects and albums under my belt.

I do more country and gospel,
than anything else, but I get rap artists, and folk and pop, and audio books, and even crazy stuff like 
audio restoration for legal issues.

Man, now that's some interesting stuff,
let me tell ya.

Let's take Indigo's direction and make this a friendly possitive list, and not take offense at general statements, and if we don't like something someone posts, we can use a delete key.

The list mods are here to control anything that gets way out of hand.

Why are folks so touchy these days?

Maybe it's the growth harmones in the chicken 'grin'.

  Again, this really is totally irrelevant to this list. I don't really think it matters at the end of the day.

  It's really funny how everybody with a mixer and computer dubs himself a recording studio these days. I really get a chuckle out of half of the people out here saying how they have a studio, and giving themselves names and whatnot. I to fall into this category. I work from home, and I have clientele. I don't think I need anybody's approval on here or anyone's justification as to what I do with my business.
  I don't ask anyone else about their legitimacy, and I really don't care. We are all out here to do one thing and one thing only, that's make good music.
  My name and information is easily found on the Internet. All you have to do is look up my Twitter profile, my Facebook page, hell I even have a MySpace. I don't use my space, but it's there.

  Anyway, I really think we should leave this topic and get back to discussing the software in which this list was created for.

  Thank you for showing concern though. I am fine…
