Re: Mbox Mac vs PC

Hi

I have an Mbox, which I use on my desktop PC, and Apple Powerbook.

Firstly - and this is from a Mac lover - don't buy into the Macs don't get viruses they do, and there is currently a worm...

Re: audio card for LE on a laptop?

Neil

You're thinking of the 2 slot Magma expansion chassis I think, this connects to the PCMCIA slot of a PB and gives you two PCI slots.

I would strongly suggest the Mbox (I have one) for the...

Re: Should I get an Mbox?

Well I have exactly the same machine, 12" PB running 10.2.8.

My background - I'm ex-HD user, got fed up with the TDM merry go round (plugin prices, keeping up with hardware etc.) and as I was...

Re: direct connect & dynamo

Might also be down to dynamo - I used it about 18 months ago, and had massive problems with processor usage - this was on a 533 G4 with 896mb and PT 5.x.

I spent a lot of time with this, and it...

Re: Ducking?

So what you want is the gain of the track reduced when the side chain is present?

In that case you want to use a compressor, with the side chain selected - as you're doing with the gate.

Re: Any UK users wanting an 002 for £320, check this deal -

And that price is +vat, which means it's £376 £1.01 dearer than walking into any Digital Village.

Not such a good deal!

Re: Can PT5.0 run on OS9.2?

Re: Just got Logic 6.0 and ....

I was the same, never bothered with Reason and Logic in 5.5 just too much hassle.

In 6.0 - full Rewire 2. Rewire is a new type of audio track, and it lists all the Rewire outputs.

Re: What The Hell ... iLOK.... DUMB!!!!

Re: midi recording

Yes, don't use an audio track!

Instead create an aux track, set the input to be the input you have the synth plugged into and you'll hear the synth when you play midi.

AND you can apply plugins...

Re: How to use AudioSuite plug-ins?

You are aware that the time compression/expansion isn't a compressor?

This allows you to shorten or lengthen the duration of a piece of audio (time stretching).

Just a thought.

Re: Match Fife from MOTU!!!

You'll never (never say never?) see a TDM sampler, as the TDM cards don't have enough memory to load the samples.

I would have thought that Digi would have done another SampleCell - but I...

Re: ASIO and Battery

On windows, you really need another soundcard to use battery and PT, or use something like Cubase initially (as this supports VST), using the ASIO driver, then switch to PT.

Battery is not a drum...

Re: ASIO and Battery

There seems to be some confusion here -

ASIO is a Steinberg standard for audio drivers, since also adopted by Emagic and various other coders.

ASIO offers far lower latency than Direct X/MME...

Re: Altiverb and Logic

Logic does support HTDM - but only (as with PT) with the presence of Mix hardware.

Therefore, on a PT24 system - no HTDM.

Must have been VST then images/icons/smile.gif

Re: POWERED PLUGINS FOR LE

That's not strictly true.

The latency on these cards is basically twice your audio card's latency (plus a tiny bit for the processing, but that's more academic in this instance).

So, for...
