This summer I bought Farallon's MacRecorder and Bogas Productions' Studio
Session.  They are GREAT!  All I can say is if you are at all producing
music using your Mac and you are on a limited budget (i.e. can't afford a
sequencer or a MIDI interface) this is the way to go!

I have a few questions:

1) Are there any public Pascal of C routines which will play a Studio
Session song?  (Falcon does this at startup).

2) What is the best way to save a MacRecorder sound as an instrument?  When
I save it as instrument it asks me if I want to compensate for non standard
recording rates (I sample in 22k mode).  If I say OK it can only be played
back properly in SS as a very very very low note.  If I say "CANCEL" it
plays back in SS at about a middle c (or a little above) which is good, but
if I then load it back into MacRecorder it plays at only half speed.  How
can I save so that it loads back into MacRecorder at the right rate (I know
how to set pitches, but it's a pain) and so it plays back in SS at a
reasonable note range (how can I control that?)

3) Is there a public repository of SS songs or is anyone willing to share
songs and info and sounds?  I'd be very interested in seeing what others
have done and in sharing what I have (will) done (do).

4) Is the format of SS songs publically available?

5) Is the format of MacRecorder sounds available?

eMail to me and I will post a summary if there is interest.

Thanks in advance!

Andy
