Going that route would give me a great sound, but if I want to get something like that then I would have to be doing more recording to make it a worthwhile investment. I don't just want to get an inexpensive API 312 clone to get one. :)
I'm stuck with my MBox for now because it's Firewire only and the iMac I have is late 2009. So PT10, the late 2009 iMac and Mbox work well.
Thanks!

I got killer tracks with the Fathead II thru API 312 clones(Five Fish Audio X-12) with any brass instrument(and great vocal recordings with several LDC mics)  |
