  • I’ve had similar problems and this was the issue. The problem is there’s no way to know what the requirements are from a user’s point of view at the moment of posting, and the error doesn’t provide useful information, so it just looks broken.

    I don’t know how much can be done within the app about the error messaging, but having a way to squish down the image in size and compression within the posting flow would be really helpful.



  • I run into this problem too. In my case I finally figured out that it’s an image size problem, as the other commenter said, though the error doesn’t message that, it just fails without explanation. What I would like is an image resizer within the app so I could just shrink it down, and generally some way to know before failure what I’m supposed to do. Some of that could be solved within Boost, but I understand not all of it.

    Another person said that instances will encourage uploading to imgur or catbox - but catbox files don’t get previews on Boost, so that’s no good. At least for me anyway - but that’s kind of a separate topic.


  • Oh wow. I’ve been needing to upgrade for a while and happened to be in a place where I was ready to make the purchase. The day the news about the most regressive tax scheme in history hit I went through the whole normal process of selecting all the completely insanely priced upgrade options I needed and placed the order. It’s due next week - I must have been one of the last ones.











  • Maybe we can keep all the ‘whubout macs’ comments contained as replies to this comment 😆

    I’ve used a little M1 macbook air since they came out for music production stuff and they’re just so unreasonably good. That and Reaper will get you very very far. Audio stuff isn’t such a heavy lift that you need crazy hardware like gaming or other graphic intensive workloads. Mine is finally starting to show its age when really piling up the more modern VSTs, so I’ll probably get an M4 air when they come out.

    I use a UA Apollo X6 as an interface, but I’d probably go for one of the more capable MOTU ones if I got another one. The MOTU M2 is a great little interface that I use on both my mac and PC as well, and I’d highly recommend it.
