Thanks for the reply! I have to say that when all this first started I kinda new the few possible solutions…just needed to make sure I wasn’t missing anything. I do want to tell as many people as I can about an solution I hadn’t considered! Before posting this here I wrote Steinberg support basically saying the same thing. They responded and gave me an additional license to run Cubase 5 (the last version that my Mac would support) for free! So now I can record on the Mac and do everything else in C7!!! I didn’t ask for anything but advice and they gave me free software!!! Now that’s support!
