Frustrating day with Xvision/RME

PipelineAudio wrote on 10/14/2002, 5:31 PM

RME says that its newer HDSP model cards are different enough that I might cure my woes. I tried to talk to xvision about sending some out and again it was the Blame Vegas Game.

I will concede, that it could be a vegas problem, but thats not the point. The BIG problem is AGAIN, they have convinced my partner that vegas isnt a professional app, "they sell it at Best Buy ". SO now, again, I gotta take a lot of heat.

What next? Are they gonna tell me what mics to use? What preamps? What compressors ? this is ridiculous!!!! If you arent recording bands, with customers over your shoulder, you got NO right to tell me what app I HAVE to use. Its a big fat pisser.

Rernroll, can you help me with a big fat nasty email to xvision and RME about why we CHOOSE to use this app, and why insisting that I use samplitude or nuendo ( a midi sequencer that happens to record audio as well )is a JOKE and a slap in the face?

myst, drbam, if that is all you get from my last thread, then maybe there is more
to be read or think about. I am not trying to prolong everyone's misery,
just have the users curtail this appetite for abuse.
THIS IS A WASTE OF TIME FOR EVERYONE
LET'S MOVE ON, CLEANLY, AND PUT THIS BS TO REST, FOR GOOD,
and CONDUCT YOURSELVES LIKE THE CONSEMATE PROs, I'm sure you all profess to be.

What I meant by "Where my relief" was, where is audioman, this is really his fight.
I'm just trying to voice my, also, "much needed to be said" opinion.
You people don't know how unpleasant this crap has been to watch from afar.
I come for info and all I get is a stupid chat room cat fight.

<<why dont you hold douchebag to the same standards guys?>>

The problem I have with Audioman and Angelic (could they be one and the same?) is that neither have offered even one single bit of information related to audio (frankly at this point I doubt that they (he) is capable of it). In spite of all the slamming and backbiting, you and Red and JoeD, and others who get into these irritating frays have also offered some very useful posts at times and I personally have learned something from every one of you. Nobody can say the same for Audioman and Angelic and until they do, I hope everyone here does whatever is possible to run them off. If they don't put up or shut up, hopefully SoFo will just pull their posts pretty soon and we can get back to making music and helping one another.

Peace,

drbam

"douchebag".....and here it comes, resorting to the name calling again, because once again there's no good information behind their posts or even anything to back their "opinions", and like a child they resort to the name calling. "Douchebag"...Ewwwwww....hurt me some more, you're much the wiser than I could ever be. Don't worry, I understand that you're frustrated and why you must always resort to the childish behavior. I once had that frustration of not knowing, but I took it upon myself to get an education.....my suggestion is that you do the same and maybe you can learn to debate with me on a more intelligent level, where we can share meainingful information that everyone can learn from.

Here, I'll come down to your level for a second:
"Stick and Stones will break my bones......" :-)~

Hey Pipeline.

The fact of the matter is(as you know) that Sonic Foundry establishes the standards for this forum.
I have no beef with you at all(does that make me a vegetarian??). I've learned from your posts as well. I hope you do get the answers you seek. You seem to me like a perfectionist, and in your business, that's a great asset.
However, even if you and said douchebag can't get along, does that mean he doesn't offer good advice. Does that mean he should be "cleansed" from this forum( That statement still makes me cringe!!)?
We're dealing with many different personalities here, obviously some aren't going to get along.
But come-on Pipe, you have to admit, these guys come from nowhere and post on different forums the comments they did!! Don't you think it's kind of like a couple of thugs jumping you from behind?

Read my threads more carefully drbam,
you may learn a little about proffessionalism.
This forum has been far from what is could be.
If you don't "get" that, then stick to whatever it is you do know.
I am a producer and a record label owner who works with engineers,
people like you, and pipelineaudio, and it's the egos and attitudes
that really make life difficult. If y'all would just be decent to each other,
instead of these raging, maniacal, egos that everyone seems
to be sporting all the time, this forum would be much better for it, ya know?
THAT'S ALL I AM TRYING TO RELAY, MAN IT'S LIKE BEATING A DEAD HORSE!

<<MAN IT'S LIKE BEATING A DEAD HORSE!>>

Then why don't you stop beating it? Seems pretty simple to me. Again, a therapist could help you with this. Also, perhaps some prozac or zoloft might help you to stop yelling.

Maybe Viagra is all he needs!
Oh, now that's LOW.
Maybe I should be CLEANSED.

drbam, myst, seems like you only read one line or the last line of these threads,
could there be an attention defecit disorder looming in your lives, I dunno, but rather
then questioning my sanity, why not try to absorb more than 1 or 2 lines.
MY FINAL THOUGHT IS THIS,
LET'S MOVE ON AND CLEAN THIS UP,
IT IS HORRIBLLY UNPROFESSIONAL,
AND WE'RE ALL LOOKING LIKE A BUNCH OF KIDS
