Euphonix MC Control & MC Mix - Pro Tools HD

[kk6downing]

I want videos of the System 5-MC!!!

[soundpurestudios]

@kk6downing ... we'll get to it sooner or later... there are only so many hours in a day!!

[MattDeatherage]

I would just like everyone to know the MC Desk is a custom desk with 15 rack spaces and looks amazing with one mc control and 3 mc mixer's.

Also i would like to add i just made the hard step to protools from cubase 5 yesterday.

[soundpurestudios]

@MattDeatherage Congrats on your move to PT9. Please let us know how we can help with the infastructure around it. We are an entirely Pro Tools based facility, and have setup a huge variety of systems around PT9 for our many clients. We were aware of that desk, which is nice, hoping that we can find a similar but much smaller version of it for some of our smaller editing suites. Thanks for posting, and please do give us the opportunity to help!

[MattDeatherage]

@soundpurestudios Well i just made the switch from pc to mac also . my university has 12 mac based protools hd setups with c24s and from what i have studied i know the artist series is very powerful in control much like the c 24. so they are my next big purchase

[soundpurestudios]

@MattDeatherage Very cool, then you definitely know what's possible with these things... let us know how we can help!

[Plakosternas]

do i have to have mac to use this controller or can i use it with windows too?

[soundpurestudios]

@Plakosternas Support for this device and PT9 is finally here on the Windows platform. Be sure and call us or visit our site when you are ready to order yours!

[soundpurestudios]

@ubotstudios5 Sorry, didn't follow your comment/question? Please let us know if we can help in any way!

[fortgreene31]

nice vid i'm a beginner beat maker using Propellerhead software. I keep hearing about Protools 9 is hot and Hd version as well. I see a lot of people using this mix control you demonstrating. I will check it out.

[soundpurestudios]

@fortgreene31 Thanks. If you check out our website at soundpure(dot)com, you will find a lot more videos and information about the Euphonix products as well as ProTools 9. There's even a video on how to get an extremely good deal on a ProTools 9 rig for a limited time. Be sure and check us out there. You can search for "ProTools 9" and "Euphonix" on our website and find what you are looking for!

The compression is so heavy on his voice I can hear every globule of saliva pulling off the roof of the guy's mouth D:

[soundpurestudios]

@TwinVulcan Welcome to the world of lavalier mics... if it's audio quality you are after, check out our other videos!

[yobhsiFehT]

@TwinVulcan

lol! This is one of those comments I wish I could "Like" again and again:D

[klandestino22]

Great video ... Is it still only for Mac users'???

[mauricesoul]

Great video! However, What about the monitoring section? Looking to purchase....

Peace

[soundpurestudios]

@mauricesoul Hey Maurice, what is your question regarding the monitoring section? There is monitoring control available in the sense that you can set the unit to control your master section, and of course the entire devices are 100% customizable, but these are ethernet based controllers (that's the only connectivity that they have), as there is no analog ins and outs or analog direct volume control- there are some nice monitoring options out there that we also represent if that's what you need

[soundpurestudios]

@mauricesoul We will be back in the office in full force on Monday after the holiday weekend... feel free to give us a ring toll free 888.528.9703, or international +1 919-682-5552, there is a limited time "special" happening right now on Euphonix products, and the new functionality with ProTools 9 (if you are using that yet) is absolutely stellar- even better than what is demonstrated here. Hope to hear from you !

[aninstrumentalvision]

good demo. Why a sheet is covering the "real" console, I don't know. Also, have to agree about the f...ckin dinner comment.

[soundpurestudios]

@aninstrumentalvision Thanks for the comment. Our large console was covered so we had a place to put these! Our B-room, where we utilize these Euphonix controllers is just too small to configure the multiple cameras and lights necessary to do a video such as this.

[vaani2]

he had a full f...ckin dinner and ready to burp on his face lols

[soundpurestudios]

@vaani2 not sure where that is going... anyhow, hope you actually liked the demonstration

[airic554]

LOL. the sheet over the real beast of a "controller"

[soundpurestudios]

@airic554 Heheh, yeah, but these Euphonix Artists Controllers are no joke- we use them throughout the facility. Now with their functionality in the new ProTools 9, these things integrate as seamlessly as our D-Command. We are going to be releasing some more videos about this sometime early next year. thanks for the comment!

[MrManuelNoriega]

I can see your roof isolation material.

[soundpurestudios]

@MrManuelNoriega impressive eyes

[SteveBrownOfficial]

Thanks for this great demo.

Steve

[soundpurestudios]

@SteveBrownOfficial We appreciate your supportive comments! We will keep the videos coming...

MACS Suck . Battle my 12 gb ram intel i7 PC .

i Render 1920x1080p video almost at playback speed .

[soundpurestudios]

@JSprayaEntertainment I hear ya man. You can definitely get a lot of bang-for-your-buck with a PC. Bottom line is, ProTools runs better on a MAC (otherwise we'd be running PCs in our studios). Can beat the cost/firepower ratio of a PC. Sounds like yours is a beast. We've got Mac Pro after MacPro here, but also a bunch of PCs. We run Final Cut for video, but if we were on Premier, we'd be all over some less expensive smokin PCs

[FilmmakerRyan]

@JSprayaEntertainment Umm... MacPros use i7's and listing the amount of ram you have is redundant since you can have a ton in either PC, or Mac.

[FilmmakerRyan]

@JSprayaEntertainment And saying "Macs suck" is ignorant fanboyism. Macs may suck for YOUR needs, but they are more reliable than PC's, whereas PC's are better in terms of price, gaming and upgradability. Pluses and minuses to both platforms.

[yohami]

dude, shut up

[wilkskills]

Luke is ill he gave me a 30 minute lesson on this at the AES convention this brother knows his stuff in and out

[classicalguitar2]

Nice presentation! Would sure love to have one of those...

[Nexis]

Is there anything this good for a PC platform? Thanks for the video!

[soundpurestudios]

Nothing as of now Nexis... Euphonix is working on a PC platform for these controllers in the future. I am glad you enjoyed the video!

[TheVanhuge]

Why would you want a PC compatible surface. just buy a Mac

[soundpurestudios]

@TheVanhuge Cost is the only reason you should consider a PC over a Mac. If they were the same price, generally speaking, Macs are better suited to audio (And video) production. But, while some say you get what you pay for, others don't like paying double for the same computer hardware guts... particularly those that are more comfortable working on a PC to begin with.

[flysubs]

Excellent information. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
