Re: Software Monitoring On/Off
i guess anything you don't buy is a deal breaker.
Did you make a deal with Avid? and they broke it? are you dangling your $300 over their head after they just posted one of the coolest updates of the best DAW software on the market? Just say that i would like to see this function & why........

Re: Software Monitoring On/Off
It's pretty simple, but can be difficult to explain.
Basically he wants to be able to record into Pro Tools without hearing what he's recording THROUGH Pro Tools until he does a playback. So a vocalist will hear themselves monitored through the desk without hearing a "double" coming back from Pro Tools. The only time the channel being recorded makes any sound is in playback, NOT in record. As a vocalist, I find that even at 64 samples you can hear that monitoring delay - it manifests as almost a chorusy sound against your own voice in your headphones. This isn't a deal-breaker for me, but it would be dead handy to be able to switch it :) EDIT: Never mind all this - captainhook explained it all much better while I was typing :) |

Re: Software Monitoring On/Off
does the RME Fireface 800 have a 32 buffer setting option like the digi003 does?

Re: Software Monitoring On/Off
AH - very interesting workaround. Never thought of that one.
The only problem is you don't get to hear the audio before a punch in that way. Other than plugging in my 003, the only other workaround I would come up with is that you could run 2 tracks all the time and just copy up the keeper audio as you go. That way you can hear the audio preceding the punch and you just mute the track you are recording on. Still alot more work than just using Low Latency Monitoring, or being able to keep your buffer low and monitoring through pro tools. I think I am more excited about having Delay compensation and 128 buses than being able to use any other interface. |

Truly I also see the lack of a software input monitor "off" option a deal breaker. The FF800 round trip latency through the converter box is a tad under 2ms total for the DSP monitoring. Even pushing the DAW software down to 48 samples is audibly more sluggish than the RME DSP mixer though it is getting close. Fastest I can get my system to record clean is 64 samples, but I'll try the new RME driver and see if it can go down all the way. That said, I think folks that are used to the RME DSP mixer would hate to give it up. Also the new RME DSP mixer in the UFX is killer and even has effects. Folks would hate to pay $2k+ for one of those and not be able to use that portion of the device. Even Reaper & Sonar have the ability to turn off input monitoring. Heck it seems they come up after install that way as the default. |

Not sure of your system, bit I track at those lower buffers all day w verb, delay, eq and comps on everything. I am running an i7. Track a lot w bfd 2 also in these scenarios. Everything is fine w the ff. A lot of what you seem worried about is no different than moving back a few feet from the speakers. I have to go now, but will get back to you in this thread.

Re: Software Monitoring On/Off
Found this topic on the Pro tools Idea scale and voted on it:
http://protools.ideascale.com/a/dtd/...on-/23853-3779 This is the basic functionality we are looking for. |

Re: Software Monitoring On/Off
I would really like to see Pro Tools be able to make use of RME FF800 Total Mix!
