I finished my diagram of how O4 is set up in the iStage environment (attached). Just some notes from when I was in there today:

-There are some extra power cables on the floor. I think they are from the setup for Tim Place's talk in the space.

-The Max 6 installation for the new Sound computer under the student account has been changed. There are now 2 installations of Max 6 (6.1.7 & 6.1.9) on the account and neither will load the sound patches. Had to run the sound today via the "Synthesis" user account which seems to have a normal installation (6.1.9)

-I have figured out why we've been having issues on both the old & new sound computers with iPad connectivity for Mira. It turns out that both computers run a keyed license of Max, which requires constant internet connection. When we make a wireless network for the iPad, internet connection is terminated and the key access error occurs. With this error, most of Max's features are terminated, including networking. Possible workarounds would be to put a fixed license on the machine, or turn the sound patches into executables.
