The much heralded new Mac OS update was released on Friday - you may have noticed the Apple PR machinery whirring faster. The new OS boasts over 100 new features and enhancements to make workflow and integration more of a delight. However as with all significant upgrades, make sure you check that all your essential applications are up to scratch before taking the leap and do, do, do make a system backup before you leap. About Tiger's improvements for audio:
64-bit audio file support
Tiger improves on the robust audio capabilities of Panther by adding 64-bit audio file support, which effectively removes the 2GB limit on the size of an audio file. This allows a single audio file to contain up to a thousand tracks of PCM or compressed audio in a single file of indeterminate size. Device Aggregation
Mac OS X Tiger now allows you to use multiple audio devices together to increase the number of input and output channels. You can combine devices of like sampling rate together, whether via FireWire, PCI or built-in, into a single aggregated device. Set up is easy via Audio MIDI Setup and your new "virtual" device will automatically show up in all applications on the system. We've had a flurry of compatibility statements since Tiger was unleashed, here's the lot so far: BIAS
