Hmmm, that's not what I'm experiencing. For instance, I can select a track that plays then press Shift+M and it won't mute. Those keystrokes don't seem to do anything at all. I'm going to steal the wired keyboard from my wife's iMac and see what happens.
Best wishes.

It seems that when I try to use one of those keystrokes it mutes or solos everything and when you unsolo or unmute certain tracks seem to not be in the state you want. I thought it had to do with having assigned tracks to groups and I tried deleting the groups but it didn't help.

This machine will be used to get a Mac version of the Mackie Display Reader going. I'm interested that you've had some issues with using a PC keyboard - the only one I've found on my Mac Mini is that using Shift+M, Shift+S, etc. in the Track table doesn't mute, solo, etc.. Is that what you've experienced, please? Best wishes.

But I am really impressed with the interface of both, and the ss drive is really cool. I went whole hog with the macbook pro, the 500 gb drive, 8gb of ram, and the 2.3ghz quad i7 processor. Now if they would only get the thunderbolt supported with some hardware that would be it. I'm surprised it only has two usb ports, but I guess they expect you to use a hub. I do need to get an actual apple keyboard, the pc keyboards work but there are some incompatibilities. Anyway, I do have some issues but it's too late to get to that now.
