How's life in ProTool-land?
Hi!
ProTools has been an industry-standard for audio-production for a long time. I don't have ProTools, but I'm curious if I've missed anything. Especially, I'm curious about this forum. I'm a Reaper-user and in our forums we have a lot of newbies, bedroomproducers and people taking their first steps. Many pros as well, but I sometimes wonder what it would be like, being on a forum with so may top producers, mixers and engineers. So, please tell me: How's life in ProTool-land? Geir |

Mostly there's been a lot of traffic about PT11. Why not give PT a try? 30 day free trial but you need an iLok. Not as cheap as Reaper if you buy PT but then again PT does a LOT more than Reaper and is worth it. |

Well, 677Eur, that's far out of my budget :) Does PT support vst/i natively? I don't have an iLok. |

PT 10 supports RTAS and 32-bit AAX only PT 11 supports AAX 64-bit only In the past there was a vst to rtas adapter but this product is discontinued.

No harm in asking questions, but yes, people should really try to read the most basic info by themselves. The Reference Guide answers most questions directly, and it is pdf. That said, we're here to help but please guys don't get offended if someone RTFM's at some point...

Well just buy one, or you're restricted to PT versions older than 7.0

Or get 8LE and be tied down to avid only hardware but at the same time you still don't need an ilok its only PT9 and up where ilok is required or when you purchase plugins that require an ilok.

Since you already have Reaper, you can use it with Pro Tools via Rewire to host the VSTIs you have that aren't yet AAX compatible. Buttdialed by me & Tapatalk

Neve, SSL, and all other large format consoles & a whole manner of effects & processing equipment. That's what Pro Tools has replaced. The idea behind Pro Tools has spawned a market where the recording environment is scalable to the needs of the hobbiest/project studio. While we can build our studio to fit our needs, it still does not compare on the same scale as large production facilities. That may be overkill for most jobs, but those are the people buying Pro Tools & making it the industry standard. Quote:
Somethings are easier in Reaper, some things make more sense in ProTools. Some things can't be done in Pro Tools.... or Reaper. But it doesn't matter. I may have missed them, but I don't see many "top" producers or engineers visiting here. Lot's of pros, no doubt... But the guys being interviewed by SoS or EQ... not so much.
