This page originally contained an additional appendix which clearly and succinctly set forth the five simple steps to attaining perfection in every part of your life, especially miking drums and editing WIN.INI files…along with several surefire methods for becoming incredibly rich overnight. However, somewhere along the production process, this material was lost forever. We apologize for any potential inconvenience this may have caused.

The text is a compilation based on input from a number of sources, including distinguished design engineers Mats Jarlstrom and Cal Perkins, acoustic engineers David Bie and Terry Wetherbee, Mackie’s celebrated cerebral technical support staff, and several species of small furry animals gathered together in a cave grooving with a pict. Extensive input was provided from various and sundry interested parties including mega-SR and recording guru Rick Chinn, our colorfully convoluted communications connoisseur and Master Geek Ron Koliha, Linn Compton (proofreader extraordinaire), Sara Delahan (Art Department Diva), and Paul Larson (Technical Support Supreme). Finally, Dave Franzwa patiently patched the pieces into perpetual prose with passionate precision.

Initially written in Microsoft® Word 6.0.1, the text was imported into Adobe PageMaker®

6.0(which was upgraded to 6.5 during the pro- duction process). Illustrations were produced in Adobe Illustrator® 6.0. Most of the work was done on a Power Macintosh® 8100/100AV with Mac OS 7.6.1 installed and an external hamster- driven power-supply which consumed 6.7 pounds of hamster food during the production of this manual. This machine has a PowerPC 601 processor, 136MB of RAM, a 1GB internal hard drive, an internal Matshita CD-ROM drive, 2GB external hard drive, and an external Iomega Zip™ Drive for backup and transfer of files. This entire manual was written and produced while sitting in a comfy chair.
