We have been offered a $4000 price for an HD3 upgrade, which is basically the same thing we already own, except it will allow us to buy new computer for $2,500-$5000. So we are looking at a pretty big upgrade price.
yup.

But it's probably because they're a bigger company with more resources.

You can use your existing pci cards by spending $2500 on a Magma pci to pci-e expansion chassis like I did and save your investment in cards. It works perfect on the MacPro and is cheaper than all new PT cards

It seems kind of confusing to me that if you print that Virtual Instrument, it will then have HEAT on there. Which will instantly make it sound "different". Or do the tracks default to bypass?

And what about "recording to disc"? Do you need to bypass it there too as you will be hearing HEAT applied twice? But only once on the file?

Also, what about gain changes and normalize? Will they effect how hard HEAT is hit?

Also, what if you print a track from one to the other with a buss? Is HEAT applied?

The tracks themselves default to ON. HEAT globally, by default, is turned OFF, unless you have a preference set to have it turned ON for new sessions.

I also print mixes using a bus, but have HEAT turned off on that channel. Otherwise I would be monitoring that channel thru HEAT (now hearing HEAT twice).

Reaper is still not anywhere near Pro Tools. I consider Reaper in the same class as Record.

Ain't no one who's flipped their studio just for Reaper. It's not gonna happen just yet.

Just because Reaper still works for PPC... it actually puts it in a pretty small field these days. Most other DAWs have moved on, as have most plugins. You wanna put Reaper on your G5... no one stopping you. But it's not like a 64-bit program is going to run as one on a G5, either. As I continue to say... PPC is obsolete. Not because Jobs says so, or any other company. It's simply archaic technology. HD still works on them because current HD architecture is also dated. Nothing new is going to be developed for PPC, and I wouldn't want it to. It's time to move forward.

So if I print a virtual instrument to an audio track it will by "default" sound different upon print?

And if I want to record Autotune in graphic mode to an extra track, I have to first bypass the source track to avoid double printing HEAT?

I don't understand what that means. I can name feature after feature that Reaper has that Pro Tools still doesn't.

When you tell your users to move on you have to be careful what they move to.

Many of us want to give more money to Avid. It just has to make sense.

Man, Lotta folks making lotsa $ with PPC. It is old, and being phased out... but it ain't obsolete, lol. One of those folks is Kenny Gioia, I believe.
But it does crack me up when you like to pick arguments with the likes of Bob Ohlsonn and Kenny Gioia. hmmm , both of those guys are HD owners, .. and you?? Get back on the porch ff

Here's an oldie but goodie work-around to print your plugs on the same track.
Haven't tried it with HEAT yet, but I'm sure it would work the same??
