Re: HD Native now on Digi website
$6000 for a native protools while Logic sells for $499?
Who is Avids intended market with this high-end product? This is not a general consumer option. This is crippled high-end professional gear. If I'm paying $6k for protools, I would like to use my TDM plugins too! |

Re: HD Native now on Digi website
Sure, but there are tons of hardware options for running other native software that are much cheaper. $6k or so seems to be the cheapest "native" option for PT.

$500 for Logic $250 for Apogee One = $750 The cheapest way to do this for Pro Tools Native is: $3500 for Pro Tools HD Native $3000 Avid HD Omni =$6500 I would like to see less of a gap between Pro Tools HD Native and Pro Tools LE. I also think that because of Pro Tools HD Native, Pro Tools 9 LE will likely not have ADC. This feature alone would help justify the cost for Pro Tools HD Native for many people.

$250 for Apogee One = $750 Surely a fairer comparison with this would be an mBox 3 at $549 ? No ADC perhaps but for many that's not a deal breaker.

Why don't people understand that you aren't paying $3500 for the software? You are paying $3500 for an interface card that out-performs HD1 for half the price. Find me a 64 channel card+I/O+Software that isn't several grand. Then... find me one that connects to an ICON.

Re: HD Native now on Digi website
[QUOTE=Dizzi45Z;1677807]For example. Somebody who is just composing with Logic using samples and perhaps recording an occasional guitar, vocal etc. could pay:
$500 for Logic $250 for Apogee One = $750 Exactly! Almost all my work on my system is mixing. Every now and then, an overdub. Why not let me have a true native version that I can use with my existing Digi system? Even if Digi (Avid) would charge me for ADC it'd be worth it as I already have the CPTK. |

Re: HD Native now on Digi website
You seem to be ignoring the fact that many users don't need 16 in and 16 out. You don't think you can get an IO box at that quality level for less than six grand?
