Re: MOTU 24i/o 24-bit/96 kHz pciE converter

Punching in on Pro Tools native is awful.

Something like Logic makes life a lot easier; proper input monitoring without workarounds, the fact that plug-in performance is much better, and if you do...

Re: MOTU 24i/o 24-bit/96 kHz pciE converter

TDM does not have bad latency; the point is that there is no real difference in latency for plug-in usage between TDM and native. 1 sample is immaterial.

Last decade, the issue was the power of...

Re: MOTU 24i/o 24-bit/96 kHz pciE converter

That's completely false. Plug-in latency with TDM is higher than native. Always. Full-stop. I don't know about HDX-DSP, but with TDM, every plug-in has at least 1 sample of latency. Compared to...

Re: MOTU 24i/o 24-bit/96 kHz pciE converter

What's currently wrong with your FireWire setup?

PCIe has the potential for lower latency versus FireWire in theory.

What do you expect to be "better"? Latency? Roundtrip latency is lower on...

Re: MOTU 24i/o 24-bit/96 kHz pciE converter

Beware of hype and marketing. People are gearwhores. Subjective descriptions of AD/DA is interesting, but even more interesting is the fact that all of the double-blind tests that are done show that...

Re: Is registration on 2 iloks posible ?

You bring all that stuff, and you are complaining about buying another $50 piece of hardware and a $600 license?

Better yet, since you are willing to go with "less than optimal" backups,...

Re: Is registration on 2 iloks posible ?

Do you have a backup computer with you? How about a backup interface? A backup board/preamps? Backup microphones? A backup singer?

Breaking an iLok is the least likely scenario....

You are wrong; iZotope wrote the code for Elastic Audio.

You either need to use the same iLok on two computers or you need to buy another license.

Re: West L.A. Music acquired by Guitar Center

Stinks for the consumer, but good for the owners and glad they were able to place their staff as part of the deal.

Re: How bout a hybrid.

Breaking down the price of the components, it really should be do-able. I mean, the faders are $20/each retail. Buttons and step-pots, LEDs and some LCD or OLED displays for scribble strips? ...

Re: How bout a hybrid.

That's not true, actually, for anything but the very-low budget gear. Roundtrip latency in most of these units are negligibly different when the same interface is used (PCIe, FireWire, USB). In...

Re: How bout a hybrid.

I'm with you on most points, Fooks.

I disagree in the quality gap of converters; the newest converters are better, but as has been shown in multiple double-blind tests, most TRAINED ears cannot...

But the professional world is shrinking. Significantly. Very, very few studios are around that are still recording 30-piece orchestras for movie sound tracks, and even then a lot of it is being...

Re: Apple $29 Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter now available

Thanks for the heads up. I might pick one up "just because" at that price.

Re: How bout a hybrid.

Agreed, but with the right desk setup, you can do a lot with a Mackie MCU (or SSL Nucleus), a keyboard and a mouse. I think it is down to ergonomics and muscle memory. And they work with any DAW. ...

Re: How bout a hybrid.

Mackie MCU and extender is under $2k. No meter-bridge, but the faders are great.

8 analog inputs and 24 channels of lightpipe? Firewire?

You can run a pair of MOTU 828mk3 units via Firewire....

Re: Avid seeking feedback on closure of Sibelius UK office

I disagree with the assessment on the "background" page.

Cash and receivables/payables actually seem to be within normal fluctuations. The cashflow caveat is a standard "Risks & Exposure" type...

That's not true; plenty of the reports are showing kernel panics.

Re: Its Official... Mountain Lion will be released tomorrow...

I'll let you all know how it goes. I'm going to clone my MacBook Pro tomorrow and then dive in. My main DAW has been Logic as of late and I have Pro Tools on my Mac Pro, so I'll dive in.

Re: What do I need to make 64 inputs?

Doing mostly sequential reads and writes... it should be fine for a while. It's not like it is being used 24/7 in a logistics server, getting pounded every second.
