Any benefit to TDM in 2021?
We have a commercial Studio, doing mostly local and regional, bands, singer songwriter, Simple projects.
Currently running a Mac Pro 4,1 Pretty Maxed out with RAM, Drives ETC. Running ProTools HD 10 With a magma Chassis and HD3. These are the original HD PCI type cards. With 1x 192 Interface and 1x 96 IO Mac OSX 10, pretty much where the support and updates for all of this hardware end. ( as far as i'm aware ) We are looking to possibly ditch HD all together and move this all to an M1 mac mini maxed out running the standard version of ProTools ( not ultimate ) Studio is built to 24 inputs max, When tracking, almost always are running the session clean, not tracking with plugins ETC, So not a lot of work on the computer in the tracking phase. We have an antelope Orion 32 extra interface from a project room. that we would use in place of the Avid ones as its pretty plug and go with our DB25 cables. Main reason for upgrading is the mac and it's limitations. ( not being able to play internet videos, spotify anything thats new and has been coded since then ) To use new VI's and plugins that are available post this system. Over all system speed, as well as all of the new ProTools Features ETC that simply speed up and help work flow. Wanted to see if anyone has thoughts on any reason this is NOT a good idea.. Is there any benefit in this scenario to still running an OLD Hd rig? Is tracking latency basically no longer an issue in small sessions with the power of Computers now vs why you used to need TDM.. Is there any benefit to running an older HD rig in 2020 vs new modern ProTools native? Thanks in advance! |
