DAW choices - help!
I may be interested in 001, but have the following concerns
>- I know ome of you TDM/DIGI experts can help me: > >I have a songwriter/project setup based around a Mackie 24x8 desk and (2) >TASCAM DA-38 tape machines, and have been investigating a DAW for the >purposes of MIDI (currently sequencing via hardware seq); and editing audio >tracks. I am buying a G4 400 256RAM in the next month. > >I seem to be stuck: > >..... between Logic Platinum (+card); the new DIGI 001; and MOTU 2408/DP. > >The DIGI 001 piece looks great, and I am sold on the PRO TOOLS 5.0 LE interface and the PRO TOOLS concept as "industry standard". But, it will be harder for me to import tape tracks into this >config. (ADAT lightpipe only - I am TDIF) > >I like the idea of the TDIF's on the 2408, but it seems a Logic/PRO TOOLS >combo is a more often used/common standard setup in pro studios - however >it does not offer the sleek card/interface of the 2408 (great for dumping >my tape tracks for editing!) > >Am I best mixing and matching (a la Logic sequencing, plus 2408 interfacing >tape tracks, plus pro tools LE for RTAS plug ins/editing)? ....Wouldn't it >be best to keep it all under one "brand"? > >Is host based processing/editing there yet? I cannot deal with crashing and >burning - I like tracking to tape - i hear too many horror stories around CUBASE, etc. > >Should I just get a sequencer (LOGIC) and wait til I can afford TDM/MIXPlus? > >PLEASE HELP! Your thoughts and insight are greatly appreciated. thanks in >advance.
