Even better… Protools 7.4.2 for OSX Leopard!
Protools admin 19 Jun 2008 No Comments
Pre-release of Protools 7.4 for OSX Leopard
If you’ve been waiting for a version of Protools that runs on OSX Leopard, you can now finally try a pre-release of Protools 7.4.
Pro Tools 7.4.2pr software is provided as a convenience for Mac-based Pro Tools 7.4 users who may wish to begin their transition to Leopard before a fully tested and qualified version of Pro Tools becomes available.
Pro Tools 7.4.2pr software is available as a download only, and requires Mac OS X 10.5.3. Pro Tools 7.4.2pr is not compatible with earlier versions of Leopard.

New episode is in the making
Dear subscribers of the Sounds Good podcast/blog,
Mark Abrams and I are working on episode #23 of Sounds Good, which will discuss various aspects of composing. The episode will be worth the wait and should be online some time later this month. If you really can’t wait and want to see some great Logic Studio tutorials, why not check out http://www.zoom-in.com ?
Meanwhile, we’ve upgraded WordPress to version 2.5.1 which doesn’t look much different for the subscriber or site visitor (that’s you), but certainly has changed a lot at the back end.
Have a super great day,
Hens Zimmerman
