Re: ProTools 002 vs. MOTU 828
Just so you know PT free will work with MOTU. I have hear the pre-amps on the 896 were good, better than the 001. You may want to look into Logic. You can set yourself up with the 828, Logic control and Logic audio cheaper then the 002. If you go with MOTU you will need a midi interface. The 896 & 828 do not have it. Mackie will be release Mackie control shortly, it will work with DP if you want the control surface.

Re: ProTools 002 vs. MOTU 828
also,
the 002 has MIDI I/O, whereas the MOTU doesn't.

ProTools 002 vs. MOTU 828
This is not an effort to avoid my personal painstaking research of comparing the two products... well, yes it is. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
However, I wondering what the differences are between the two..(besides the obvious like number of pre's, and rackmount etc..) On initial sweep, I plainly noticed:Firewire! and "works with other software".. (anyone run PTLE through a MOTU 828?) Anyway, is there anyone that owns the two or has used the two (meaning PTLE 001 since 002 is just out) that might want to share some thoughts.? Thanks. Donovan |

Eventually it would be nice to have MIDI... what are the options to run midi on a TiPowerbook? I imagine there are some PCMCI options out there.?? Donovan |

Re: ProTools 002 vs. MOTU 828
to be fair, this should be 001 vs 828 or
002 vs 896 the 828 was the answer to the 001. same thing but firewire. the 896 is the portable, 8 mic pre box. more recent. and was an answer to the suggestions of users. more mic pres, still small enough to travel. the 002 IMHO was an answer to that. Rather than make a digi version, they gave the control surface with it. seperate software is not a bad thing, if i wanted to go to logic, i can use my 896's with it. digi is tied, so you cant even listen to something without a box attached (although, to hand it to them, it is the ultimate copy protection) but to say MOTU's support is bad is just not correct (or it has been massively changed). i've called their help desk 3 times, and get a PERSON ON THE PHONE IN 2 RINGS! All 3 times, the error was my mistake, and fixed in 3 minutes. MANOWAR! |

Re: ProTools 002 vs. MOTU 828
I really like using my 828. I got so sick of CPU noise problems that in one of my studios I set up a Mac Cube, and 828 and I'm jammin'! I'd be very willing to pay Digi a few hundred dollars if they'd open that box up to PTLE. As much as I like MOTU hardware, I still prefer PT software. Maybe some day they'll let us use our hardware of choice.

Re: ProTools 002 vs. MOTU 828
DP can read PT's Time Stamps, so you can move your PT recorded tracks to DP and spot them into original time stamps (time code). That way you don't need to bounce them first.
I used DP first with 001 and it wasn't 100% stable. After I moved to Motu's 828 I haven't had any crashes. DP 3.02 with MOTU's hardware is very stable and powerful (I'm using it with dual800). Learning curve is a bit slower than in PT, but after you get familiar with it, you'll never look back on PT LE (TDM/HD is a different thing). |
