I'm using a Mac and pHatfactory and pHatmaticpro.
There is a problem for some of us if more than three PPro's are used. I get
around this by bouncing.
There was a problem using pHatfactory in a song with a pHatmatikpro but Art
fixed this and sent me a new version. It works perfectly now.
Yes,  Art can be a little brusque if your attitude is a little loose but I
put that down to a musician/programmer temperament and a very busy schedule.
He seems to be a very creative guy and has programmed some great sounding
loops for his own and other peoples products (Spectrasonics).
On the other hand I don't trust NI one little bit.
They stuck it to me with Battery and Dynamo and I won't be buying anything
from them  until I see a change in attitude and support.

About this pHatmatikpro issue.........I sometimes wonder if we don't get a
little to anal about how perfect something is. I mean if something keeps
crashing your system then......fair enough, you have a relevant gripe. But I
didn't even know that pHatmatikpro had these problems you guys are talking
about.
My loops are in time, my work flow has improved and I can do things with
loops I could never do before.
Are you guys working or obsessing over your tools?
BTW the file features you are looking for in pHatmatikpro are present in
pHatfactory and it's fabulous. This will of course be implemented in the
update of pHatmatikpro.
