Re: Turned off "Auto-Renew". Three days to change my mind. Thoughts?

I know I have a few days to make up my mind. They offered $199 to renew for one year. With PreSonus, you buy the license, and you own it, and get all relevant updates as long as that version is...

Turned off "Auto-Renew". Three days to change my mind. Thoughts?

I'm leaning towards spending that $299 on an upgrade to Studio One Pro 6. I used Pro Tools for 15 yrs. The educator's discount made it affordable, and I used it often. Now that I've retired; I...

Re: I have to December 2022 to leave ProTools. Recommendations?

Thanks Darryl. Your input is always welcome. I have a Presonus Revelator mic I got for a song. It comes with Studio One Artist, so I'll put it through it's paces over the next few weeks. I'm familiar...

I have to December 2022 to leave ProTools. Recommendations?

After nearly 15 years, I can no longer afford Pro Tools. I am looking at both PreSonus Studio One and Cubase. I lean towards the audio recording/editing/mixing and distribution side of things. I also...

Re: Drum VI recommendations

I agree w/Albee and Darryl. I very much enjoy using EZ Drummer. It's good. It just works! But I sympathize about Strike. Very, very cool, especially how it used the keyboard to lay out the intro, vs,...

Re: PT 2022 release?

But there are those of us who had a choice: buy a new INTEL Mac, or a new Apple Silicon Mac. But as the owner of Soundblade suggested (this program is 32 bit, and will NEVER port to 64 bit): buy an...

Re: PT 2022 release?

Anyone notice that Apple chose to highlight a power-user for Ableton Live?

I had to purchase a new Mac. NO WAY was I going to put $$ into an extremely hot and noisy Intel Mac. I also had to pay...

Re: M1 and PT.....11.3?!

The replacement of my bricked MacBook Pro, 2.3ghz i7 quad core has truly turned out to be nightmarish. After an Apple financed replacement of graphics, motherboard and keyboard (per class action suit...

Re: bluetooth in ear with Apollo I/O simultaneous comparative listening.

I've gotten my AirPods Pro to work. They sound incredible! Love the noise reduction. The problem is that what I see on the screen and what I hear is NOT in sync. So its kinda pointless. Just as...

Re: 2021.12 | Release Notes

I had to get a new computer. I have no functioning Intel Macs. There are two M1 Airs in the house, but I can only borrow those. I waited over a year for this 16” M1Pro. I have ProTools 2021.12, ...

Re: MacBook Air M1 with Pro Tools

The Air is very capable. Silent too. 16gbs ram is a necessity imo. But the lack of ports might hinder you. An audio interface needs one dedicated port. So the remaining port must be used for power,...

Re: AirPods Pro as Playback Engine

I LOVE my AirPods Pro! Incredible experience! That being said, I find Bluetooth not quite ready for prime time. So finicky. And I'm not even talking ProTools. One set of earbuds, one smartphone; good...

Re: Apple Macbook Pro - M1 Pro & M1 Max

My 17" MacBook Pro died last summer, after the i7 portable toaster inside fried my 2nd GPU and motherboard. Not to mention one of the two fans. I ordered two M1 Air's in December. One for my wife,...
