Re: Digi 002 or Digi 002R w/command8
I own a 002r and a C/8 and I like it alot. Right now I don't use the monitor section but I think I will hook it up to see how it performs. I like the fact that my audio interface is in the rack and my control surface is on my desk. The C/8 has a better display than the 002 too. I haven't used the 002 so I can't compare them very well.

I use the C|8 with 002-R. It's a good combo. Less space is used on my desktop. Keyboard sits underneath desk on movable keyboard tray, directly below C|8. The display is better than the 002, also.

Another 002R/C¦8 user here. The combination is great. The only thing I miss on C¦8 is a jog wheel, for which I'd be prepared to pay another $50 or whatever towards the extra cost if implemented.

Re: Digi 002 or Digi 002R w/command8
this may be an unenlightened question.. but why would you use a 002r with the C8 instead of just the 002 desktop?

Re: Digi 002 or Digi 002R w/command8
Also, the C|8 works with the M-box, too. So, for a very low entry cost to Pro Tools, the C|8 permits you to have a external harward mixer with touch sensitive faders, etc. For me, I had the M-box and later upgraded to the 002-R. It's a nice path. Now, assuming you have a multi-track session you can mix it.
Also, I see the advantage of putting the 002-R in a rack and having only the control surface on my desk. In my configuration, the 002-R sits to the right of the monitor, which is on a shelf above the desktop. The C|8 sits below the monitor -- almost centered below the monitor -- on the desktop. CC

Re: Digi 002 or Digi 002R w/command8
hey folks:
i have a new command|8 running with my HD|2, having just upgraded from a happy 18 months on the 002; i think the build quality of the command|8 is slightly better than that of the 002 - the feel of encoders and buttons is a bit more solid, and certainly the display is far superior - i do wish it would boot with the control room outputs muted though, as the 002 did; here's a drawback for those of you one day considering a jump up: the 002 gives you 18 channels of i/o, and i grew quite used to having my DA78 coming in the lightpipe while also having send and return for an effects loop to my eventide eclipse on the s/pdif ports; now with the 96 i/o i only have 16 channels of i/o, and i have to deselect channels 7-8 of the DA78 when i want to send to the eclipse - sad! but cool that you actually get more i/o on the 002. enjoy! sp/L/icy |
