I'd like to ignore your post because it's pointless to me.

Just as pointless as this thread.

you must be kidding, this thread is why moses parted the red sea, why the slaves were freed, why the nazis were faught, and why donald trump simply refuses to attempt any other hairstyle. this thread is delicious my friend... delicious, as a matter of fact this forum is the only place in the world where you could actually love a guy like machinesworking and pencilrocket at the same time-it really doesn't get any better than ableton.

It would have been better if I typed it on my Mac, but I'm at work, so I typed it on my PC.

TLTR. If you don't understand what I wrote just understand the word "cognitive dissonance" in your 'understandable' English. When you don't understand the word even in your 'understandable' english that's not my problem. It's your problem.

It comes, and it goes...

I hope you know you're special. However, I have a feeling people have been telling you this your whole life. Good luck with all that.

There is nothing objective about running a hacked OSX to prove that Windows runs better on a tweaked PC it was designed to run on.
The same test done on a Mac Pro would show significantly different results.

That's your personal conjecture. You didn't bother to give any counterevidence but crying your obsevation full of evidence. You conjecture is rather unnatrual based on basic ruls of experiment.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experiment
Keeping same condition is must for getting accurate data.

About the equipment of the experiment that's other thing. If you have question about the equipment you ought to tell or give us the data which prove that the equipment have flaw and it is giving wrong result because of that flaw.

Let's be clear here, if you're talking about the most successful and commonly used DAWs it would be Pro Tools and Logic, with Cubase slightly behind. Cubase is well known for having shitty performance on Macs, this has nothing to do with OSX, and everything to do with Steinberg, as Logic, Digital Performer, and Live all prove beyond a doubt.

Show us the data to prove it's not your conjecture that Logic's industry majority exceed the cross platform CPU-based daw which is seamlessly exported to most developed CPU-based full-featured scoring studio environment. No one would believe you because you have nothing showed us yet but your peronal preference.

The problem here isn't mac users cognitive dissonance, it's yours. You've found one test that proves the point you want to make, and haven't even bothered to research other tests of a similar nature. All of them besides this one with the guy running a hacked OSX come back with roughly +/- 5% difference in platforms in favor of optimized Windows, but usually only at around a 2-3% difference.

I don't think mine but rather you. I'm sorry to say that no one would believe you because you showed nothing to us except criticizing the equipment w/o counterevidence and directly me. You get nothing from me by criticizing me. However, we will get something from data or articles you will provide. I hope you will realize it.

When I say I love Ableton, I'm not just talking about making music in Live.

Gosh I love Ableton, ........it's,....inspiring.

You're welcome. Oh wait... shit.

In other news I am typing this in Windows via VMware Fusion on a Mac. Minds blown!

I think if we combined this argument with our friend 9V's "Audio vs MIDI - What is Music" discussion, we really could be onto something...

Taking into consideration that audio is not music (and thank you 9V for clearing that up for us) we only need to worry about MIDI as far as writing music on a computer is concerned. And the MIDI protocol itself is not music either. So that leaves what 9V so graciously informed us of - music is simply midi files. So bearing that in mind, does a Mac or a PC store midi files better? That should be our primary concern when talking about music created on computers. Anyone got any data on this?

ps: pencilrocket - you're not Italian by any chance, are you?

I have a PC that I just bought 500$ and is running fantastic... Imagine if I put the extra 1000$ to equal a Mac price...My pc gonna make fire...
