A person with little to no financial/business stress working on less than the best system will be happier and more creative than a person with serious financial/business stress who is trying to meet quotas. Ones sense of peace and inner calm can't be left to chance. Disenchantment and financial/business stress has taken serious tolls on the music world. It pains me to think of all of the individuals (my friends) that have proudly posted pictures of their studios in evolution and end up having to hocking their gear a couple of years later. I am not trying to be doom and gloom. I am just trying to affirm a cautious, creative approach. |

Re: Conumdrum: New Mac Pro?
These are incredibly good points, and I agree whole heartedly. By all means if it is not in your budget do not do so. (My accountants stated that I could use the write-off). This topic to me was about the new Mac Pro and it's functionality. Yes it is expensive. I have a Mac Book Retina right next to it that can run PT 10 Thunderbolt into the Sonnet chassis. Can you make things work with a Mac Book, or Mac Mini, iMac, or old Mac Pro? You bet. Its the song, the music, the dialogue heard the right way in contrast with the picture that moves us. A great console never wrote a hit!
To me it is the opportunity to try the new technologies that the many have put in front of us to create our art. Please see the new Sony commercial that is running now. I am excited about the future! I can't tell you how many times I have cursed Digi Design and Avid in the middle of things, but, I am also grateful for the opportunity to work with new Products Apple and Avid has given us. The new Mac Pro is worth it. It will probably last me a good 5 to 7 years into the future. |
