I recently installed 10.3 on my iBook, and I tried out recording last night at Carbon Leaf in Norfolk. I was using the latest version of Spark ME. The recording went flawlessly. In fact, it's the first time I've used Spark on my iBook and NOT had a problem. So if anyone was thinking about upgrading to the 10.3 preview, I say go for it. ;)

will spark work at 24 bit with the emi 2|6?
-
I don't know because I have an AD-20 which only puts out a 20bit digital signal (really 16 bits with 4 bits of zeros from what I have read). Care to send me some equipment to test out 24 bit? ;)
I'll see if I can test something out on Friday at the Gin Blossoms...
Edit - 10.3 seems to have broken Sound Studio, which is what i use to track all my shows. Any recommendations on what to use now (I have Peak 3.2 and Spark ME at my disposal). Thanks.

you can test the emi 2|6 at 24 bit without a 24 bit a/d. set it up to do 24 bit and choose "best format" instead of 16 bit
then feed it a digi signal from the ad20 and then try it with an analog signal.
it won't see any input signal with "best format" chosen in anything pre 10.3

Ok. I've got a show tomorrow and another one on Friday, I'll check it out and let you know.
Any recommendations for tracking, though?
-
peak can track fine
but let me get this straight: you installed a buggy "developer's preview" os as your main OS on the laptop? not sure if i'd recommend that....

I use beta software all the time, but I always make sure I have some kind of backup in case my computer goes down. But I must say, I've yet to make Panther crash, and I've actually tried to do it.
-
beta software is one thing, but an OS that's not even beta yet (i don't think) is another....hehe

Real quick. I'm trying to track a show in Peak, and I've got markers set where I want. But I can't seem to find how to split the show up. Any advice??? Please? :D

select all, "export regions" in file menu
