Re: Pro Tools 12 vs Studio One 3 vs Logic Pro X
I just came off the Cubase Pro 8 demo (Yes a dongle but the same as VSL and others)
Also I'm 2 week into Studio One 3's demo period. Prior MOTU DP8, Logic 9 (However use X in another location) HD-Cost for me as well as workflow but more to the future is why I'm looking around. $600.00/Yr..... now a demanded fee becomes an issue as I relate to a Softtech-cycle budget. DP8 with it's chunks and video tools very nice. Cubase Pro8 I got around quit well and it was the least familiar to me in it's current configuration. Logic a solid building-block (has come a long way from Notator). Studio One Version 3 strangely logic like (Even CuBase 8 is) and seems a work in progress (Right Track though). Pro Tools 12 like 11. most expensive upgrade path of any of the others. Daw-Gonnit I still like working in Pro Tools. There really does not seem to an apples to apples with any of the above mentioned (And don't even send me to Reaper). Now I like use and own license to 3 of the above mentioned. (I write regularly) Pro Tools has a simple elegance for editing (My main profession) and likewise tops my list. Followed by DP8, Logic X, Cubase and Studio One. Just a users non technical point of view for this post.

Re: Pro Tools 12 vs Studio One 3 vs Logic Pro X
I haven't looked at alternatives to Pro Tools yet, but based solely on comments elsewhere on the DUC I was kind of hoping that Reaper was gonna be a good alternative. What is it you don't like about it?

Only to record and mix. No real audio processing, not many MIDI, no instrument.

Too busy and not as robust as the rest. ------------ "If PT suits you, the best economy is to keep." Not necessarily (Sure stay at the version I'm at) It is the company, my clients I need to keep in the loop. Hence all the comparative analysis (Many are doing)

Re: Pro Tools 12 vs Studio One 3 vs Logic Pro X
The input buffer is what you *do* have control of. The disk buffer is what you do not. it is set to 1024 or 2048 depending on sample rate. Folks from Avid development have discussed this before on DUC. And verifiable by increasing the buffer size and seeing the resulting increase in heard latency.

e.g. see http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=340255 for clarification on what is happening. You have to be careful about the terminology Avid uses, they never call anything the "input buffer" they call that instead the "Hardware Buffer". They call the other buffer thingy that you can't change the "Playback Buffer". They could have avoided confusion by naming sing the term "input buffer" but I suspect they may have gone with "hardware buffer" for backwards user compatibility/familiarity. And it would just make no sense to work as you descried, always going with the nastiest small input buffer would cause awful problems all over the place. |

Re: Pro Tools 12 vs Studio One 3 vs Logic Pro X
So why then does changing the value on the Playback Engine options window affect playability? If it does not affect the playback buffer something weird is going on. When I have playback issues and it goes all static-sounding I change this buffer either up or down one and the problem is gone for a while. In most instances my sessions, even though they are small with no VI's won't play with anything less than 256 samples at a minimum.
If this doesn't affect playback buffer, then why won't it play back when I have something like 64 selected? If it is truly just input latency, then I don't see how this would matter if all I'm doing is playing back a session and not recording... Something in my programmer brain is saying the understanding of the hardware buffer setting is flawed in more ways than one... |
