Z,
I have to disagree with you. GTP3 is entry level. I would agree with you if someone were to buy Sonar 7 and not know how to deal with a disk space issue. But this is something I have seen more than once in this forum in the last year. And some noobs are better than others at looking around first before posting.
I am going to still disagree with you! I don't think GTP3 is entry level at all, I think something like Audacity or N-track is entry level. But I do see your very valid point, and i do agree that some noobs are better than others.
But again, I was really just trying to set up for my joke that would have been funny had i had the chance to finish it!!!! Now I wish i could type real fast.
Z,
That's the thing about this room I think is good is that we can discuss and agree to disagree. This room by far is more welcoming than the Sonar room where people have a tendency to have their head where the sun don't shine. It's important to have a place to start where one can feel accepted and not degredated for their lack of preparation or knowledge. Or for that mater difference of opinion.
For a low cost product it is a place for the more serious musician to start and learn the basics of digital recording. But the thing about knowing your way around the inside of a PC (or Mac) is not for everyone. Some are challenged by the technology itself and the seeming lack of logic that Microsoft has put into the operating system (comparatively speaking and compared to UNIX or Linux). There are so many ins and outs of a PC that for a lot of individuals it's hard to get around or know what to do to rescue or fix a problem.
I would agree with you to a point. but not everyone knows or gets their way around a PC. Heck there are few people who can get into the guts of their cell phone and fix a Java problem. We are a society of technology users, and only a fraction of us are technology fixers.
In any case I think I agree with Steve, we could see where the Joke was coming from.... and going now that you mention it.
Yeah i haven't learned too much from the Sonar forumssssssssssssssssssssssss, except how many
things people use and what I
should be using.
I still stand by my opinion about knowing your pc, just like if you want to learn to drive, you need to learn how to put gas in your car! Among many other things. Before you run out! That's just the way I feel. Of course you can still drive without knowing how to do it. I mean you don't need to learn how to compile your own drivers and such, just basic things like simple hard drive maintenance. But then again, I am one of those guys who learned how to reprogram their cell phone to do things from having my own custom banner to unlocking it for other carriers, and that was eight years ago. I learned how to get files from my cell phone before I ever even saw any forums online that had anything to do with cell phones.
My joke was one of those things where all these ideas popped into my head just from the phrase "Space Disk" and I think it would have been funnier if I had finished it then, but if I do it now it probablt wouldn't turn out as good! Kind of like when I'm writing songs!
Anyways I like this forum better than the Sonar ones by a long shot.
