Hello,

I read some folks have access to that file. Where is it? What is Patrick's 
site? I just joined and I don't know who is who Could you guys be a bit more 
precise. I'm sorry I'm a newcomer it feels I subscribed to some list where 
people already know each other, some kind of Protools elite. 
Many thanks,

Thierry
