Re: LE to HD quality difference
[QUOTE=grendizer;1552220]
I record a guitar track on a HD system. Then I import the track with same bit sample rate to an LE 003 system. Did I lose any quality yet? if not lets keep going. On the HD system i use Waves TDM plugs to process the guitar track... Now I do the same exact processing on the LE 003 system, but with waves NATIVE plugs, not TDM. Is there a difference in quality? --------------------- LE has a fixed 32 bit bus. HD has a 48 bit double precision bus, right? LE means no tracking with plugs on the channel, right? Some of those Waves plugs have a pretty good delay on them - right? That makes it hard to track with plugs on the channel. And it might just be my little LE system I have to float around, but LE seems flaky-er then HD. I was prepping multitracks yesterday at home and PTLE just sorta 'ran away' with SWOD and PT playing until I hit force quit - twice. It didn't loop, or crash neccessarily, but it was unresponsive and was a drag. I've seenlots of HD systems do weird stuff before, but this was a 24 track no plugs no automation - no good reason for a fail. I cut bands all day. I am constantly changing the 64 voice to 96 voice DSP for playback cause I need 'two more' tracks for whatever. So, for me, HD is needed for any 'real' session. Of course, YMMV.

Re: LE to HD quality difference
[QUOTE=Keybeeetsss;1552722]Oh, really, Marque? Where did I go wrong?
Let's review, since you're not ANSWERING the QUESTIONS I asked, but merely saying 'more wrongs than right[s]' : LE 32 bit floating point mix bus - RIGHT? yes or no ? HD DOUBLE PRECISION 48 bit mix bus - YES? NO? Do you even know? What happens when you record arm a track with plugs on it in LE? That's right. They get bypassed. Did I get that wrong, too, champ? LE being installed on a non-dedicated system = less stability then an HD system (which is usually a dedicated CPU setup) - right? Right. So WTF are you talking about? And why does your MySpace tank Safari? The editor you used to build it is ... well, tanking the Flash plug in Safari. Fail. Did you hear DATT? I said - DID YOU HEAR DATT, DAWG?

Re: LE to HD quality difference
I did (and already knew that, but thanks) but this proves my point.... There ARE plugins that are identical and there are those that are not. I understand what's said, there are many arguments on both sides. Let me ask you this---do you feel and believe 100% that it is ALWAYS BETTER to use the internal clock of a product than to re-clock with another clock? I ask this because there are those that claim this should never be done, which I also heavily disagree with.

http://akmedia.digidesign.com/suppor...ixer_26688.pdf http://www.gearslutz.com/board/music...questions.html http://www.digidesign.com/index.cfm?...&categoryid=34 Maybe you should read up a little bit on what you're doing for a living... And plugs on every LE system I've ever seen bypass themselves when the track in question is put into record. Are you kidding? This is *pretty basic* stuff. I've never seen you act so ignorant on the threads before...

Re: LE to HD quality difference
Sean,
When you experienced the plugs being bypassed on LE it may have been in Low Latency recording mode, where this is supposed to happen. Otherwise, that's simply not the case. Otherwise it would be impossible to record a guitar through an amp sim. Of course the plugins that are inserted don't record the effect on to the track, but they don't bypass and you can here the effect. |
