Metric Halo Community Resources

Metric Halo users have formed a vibrant world-wide community on the internet and have created a number of resources that users can utilize for peer-support, interesting discussion, and help with related techniques and technologies. We are proud that Metric Halo users are super-sharp and super helpful. If you are looking from help from other users, want to ask questions about the gear or products of independent owners, or simply want to learn about a wide variety of audio and computer topics, we recommend that you take a look at one of the community resources listed below!

Members of Metric Halo staff read the discussions on the lists below, and respond where appropriate. These lists are not official support channels, and should not be used to communicate with Metric Halo for official support requests.
