To : Everyone
A few people (cant remember who) had a few questions about Logic and other things. Heres some answers.

Q : When I press play in Logic it uses 100% of the CPU. Is this normal?
A : Yes, the original with a dongle does this as well. Your guess is as good as ours why Emagic programmed it this way.

Q : In the Radium release of Logic the EXE is quite small. What's missing?
A : Its smaller because its compressed (like a zip file). Nothing is missing :)

Q : Can you tell me how to remove the Logic splash screen?
A : Grr. Absolutely not. We put the 'cracked' message there for a reason and made it very difficult to alter. Don't be using warez in places you make money!

Q : Do you read a.b.s.u for messages? or only a.b.s.u.d?
A : We read absu once in a while, but absu-d is the only newsgroup that we read consistantly.

Re: Fhg Radium MP3 codec v1.263 not showing up in Sound Forge
I installed Fhg Radium MP3 codec v1.263, everything went smoothly, I can edit the parameters in Control Panel... but there is no option to save as mpeg or mp3 in either Sound Forge 4.5c build 295 or Cool Edit Pro. Anyone have any ideas why?

Answer : In soundforge open a wave file, then click 'Save as'. Then set 'Save as type' to the option 'Wave (wav)' <-- important. Now for 'Format' choose 'Mpeg Layer-3'.

We received your encrypted message however you didn't include your public key. PLEASE TAKE NOTE : unless you include your PUBLIC key we cannot read any encrypted messages you send! ;)

Communication FAQ (new or updated text is in red)
Q : Does Radium have email, website or visit chat groups?
A : No

Q : How can someone get a message to Radium?
A : We periodically read messages in the Newgroup ABSUD. (Alt.Binaries.Sounds.Utities.D) Please put 'ATTN Radium :' in the subject line.

Q : How would Radium reply?
A : We will never post replys directly to newsgroups. The only place you will see a Radium reply is in this Radiumchat.htm file that is included with releases. We would be grateful if someone (anyone) would 'repost' each radiumchat.htm file to the absud newsgroup. (We won't be posting it there ourselves for security reasons.) Please post as an html file attachment if possible.

Q : What if the message is private?
A : Use PGP to encode the message. Our public key is at the very end of this radiumchat. **Be sure to also include YOUR public PGP key with any post.** (otherwise we cant read the message or reply to you!):)

Q : If we post our public key wont everyone be able to read the messages?
A : No. Here's a quick intro - When you first run PGP you will be prompted to create a key PAIR (use RSA 2048 for your key.) You will then have a Public and a Private key. To communicate with someone you will both need to know each others PUBLIC key. Other parties wont be able to read it because they don't have your individual PRIVATE keys.

Although we will read every post, our time is limited and we will only be able to reply here occasionally. Also please don't expect replys for questions like 'Where can i get X, When will X be released, etc'
