Re: Mac + 2200: QTR or OPM?

2003-10-08 by jessupsa

Sanders,
I've tried both OPM and QTR, and so far, have found QTR to give more
consistent 
results. This is without tweaking the curves, and with EEM. You don't
even have to 
reboot to run OPM, but it's not quite as convenient, as it does
require a switch to 
classic. You might want to try both programs.
