In what I think is probably the quickest turn round ever Digidesign have today announced that Mac OS X 10.5.7 is now qualified for use with all flavours of Pro Tools 8.
Pro Tools 8.0 — Mac OS X 10.5.5, 10.5.6, or 10.5.7 Required
Pro Tools 8.0 software requires Mac OS X 10.5.5, 10.5.6, or 10.5.7, and is not compatible with earlier versions of Leopard. If you have an earlier version of Leopard, you will need to update your Mac OS using one of the following Combo Updates before installing Pro Tools 8.0:If you do not own Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard), you will need to purchase Leopard from Apple or an authorized Apple distributor. Pro Tools 8 is not compatible with Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) or earlier versions of Mac OS X.
Notes:
- Digidesign testing has shown no known differences between 10.5.5, 10.5.6, or 10.5.7; all are officially qualified with Pro Tools HD, LE and M-Powered version 8.0.
- Downloading one of the “Combo Update” installers is the recommended method of updating your Mac OS.
- Updating your Mac OS using the built-in Software Update or smaller incremental “Delta Update” downloads may not install all required components, and is not recommended.

Seven radio producers – all based in the north of England – have joined forces to launch a new co-operative venture – ‘Radio Wizards’. It’s equally remarkable that their aim now is to work together on every kind of sound production... except radio!
"It’s taken over a year to get to this point," says ‘wizard’ Mike Thornton, "but now we’ve got a viable business plan, we’ve launched our website and we’re already starting to attract commissions. As a facilities provider we decided to facilitate this partnership and set them up with a web site to help kickstart this excellent partnership."
