Tyson, I am not sure I understand what you are saying about the cross-platform aspect of Ms Pinky. From their web site, I read: "Ms Pinky's SDK enables application developers working on Mac, PC, Linux, and Low-Power embedded DSP platforms to create their own compiled applications incorporating Ms Pinky's vinyl/CD motion transducer technology." (at http://www.mspinky.com/Developers.html) Is that information incorrect ? For Ms Pinky vinyls, you can simply order Torq vinyls (M-Audio licensed the technology from Ms Pinky). These are available all over the place: http://www.google.com/search?q=torq+replacement+vinyls (http://www.mspinky.com/MsPinkyProducts.html explains that Torq=MsPinky ; the info is somewhere on Torq's site as well) Anyhow, xwax is great. Period. :-) Big props to Mark. Cheers, Jacques On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 10:29 PM, Tyson Henning <p.y...@gm...> wrote: > Serato's timecode is freely available.
