I was brought up on British English, but on this forum (unless I'm replying to British posters), I try to use American spelling (or should that be speling? wink ).

Unfortunately, Americanisms are starting to impact on my 'normal' life and I'm begining (sic) to spel program instead of programme, behavior instead of behaviour etc, etc.....

Is there any particular reason why?

As a ten-year-old I was furious when my teacher corrected my "travelling", saying it should be "traveling". Hmmmmphhhh! I know the rules, I thought. There should be two ells! (I was wrong.)

Well, Frank (the owner of PianoWorld) is America, and the server that hosts PianoWorld is located in the US, however I don't 'feel' that this is an 'American forum' any more that I feel the Nord forum is German.

The Nord forum is owned and run by a German chap, the server is based in Germany.

You should stay away from software that uses lossy files/compresion if you want to achieve professional recording.

Just for clarity - Vintage D use lossless compression, so everything's fine there. I also think that most softwares worth considering will by default use lossless, because, really, there's no justification doing otherwise.
