Re: Let's talk high track count systems: 64-128+ tracks

Hey Justice, 128 tracks? I thought you wanted big I/O...:D

We're using a couple of the RME HDSPe cards. Works great in a Sonnet chassis as well. On this one the primary input backbone is MADI....

Re: GET RID OF ilok ONES AND FOR ALL. please

Having an iLok for the software or plugs isn't so bad these days. It used to be MUCH worse. I wish the iLok had one of those dual A and C connectors. It's great. I bounce between a couple of...

It's OK, he's American...:eek::D

Besides, having been to both places several times I'm not sure the Swedes want Helsinki back.

Re: Recording with a microphone

I haven't used (or seen) a Scorpion in 30 years or so.

Re: I believe it's time to change DAWs

Unless you need session compatibility with .ptx there are several tools that do the job well. It’s not the tool. It’s how you use the tool.

Re: Came back, but regretting it already.....

Of a couple dozen shows worldwide I don't think we have any of the bands/composers that write using Pro Tools. At least none I've seen. Typically it's Logic or Live for composition. Some shows use...

Re: Switching from Windows PC to Mac

Macs aren’t a silver bullet in terms of issues vs Windows but my experience using Macs vs Windows is more pleasant.

Re: M2 mini or M1 studio?

For about the same price you say? Without a doubt an M1 Studio. We’ve got both. An M2 Mini is a great workhorse. We use them for playback rigs but the Studio while older is more stout in terms of...

Re: Pro Tools Public Beta: December 2022

Not impressive to have waited over two years for this. I think an “early next year” is pretty optimistic. My guess is closer to June than March.

Re: How to play live into PT with amp/cab sims

For pro players that play live with plugs and sims but aren’t tracking they generally don’t use Pro Tools. What I see the most of is Live or Mainstage though some go high buck and use an Axe FX. ...

Re: Looking for a good audio interface

The budget isn’t realistic for tracking 16 simultaneous inputs with Focusrite or RME level gear. It’s more in the realm of prosumer/MI type gear.

You can easily get 8 good preamps on a pro...
