@neilmacmusic I'm referring to the full hd systems with racks for processing power, I haven't seen anything that rivals that studio setup

[neilmacmusic]

@115breno

Pro Tools is a completely different linear way of working compared to the almost organic Ableton environment

and certainly nowhere near as MIDI friendly

[neilmacmusic]

@miamiheatbubba

Hi - it's a bit like Apple - almost all AVID resellers are locked into set pricing...

[neilmacmusic]

@wolfman109h

The AVID MBox is pretty good but for more features

also look closely at the Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 and the MOTU 4 Pre

@ma0fille

no longer true

@dopemcee

Agree - it really boils down to who has the best marketing campaigns! And that's usually the ones with the most $

@TheLiquidBeats

Hi I would recommend SE - that way you are not sinking all your $ into AVID and will be able to choose / try other great systems / software out there as well.

If you are predominantly music based then AVID may not be the way to go at all

- it is primarily an audio recording / editing / mixing environment trying to catch up

with the main music production software out there already!

- definitely try the 'lite' versions of Cubase / Ableton / Logic Pro / Reason etc. first!

[neilmacmusic]

PS as a composer I am a big Reason and Logic Pro user and I have to say AVID could sure learn something about customer service from Propellerhead who make Reason.

When it came to upgrading to Reason 6 they gave all their customers a few weeks to upgrade

at WHATEVER PRICE THE CUSTOMERS THOUGHT WAS FAIR!!

So you could upgrade and pay as little as $1 or if you so desired....

This is a great Swedish philosophy and has earned Propellerhead some lifetime customers

- myself included!!

[neilmacmusic]

I love Pro Tools and have used it in TV and Film Post since it began as Sound Designer way back.

Digidesign were a cool company - I'm still on the fence about AVID

In April I updated my home MBox2Pro Factory/DV Toolkit2 PTools8 system.

I bought the (fantastic) Digi Eleven Rack which sadly only came with PTools 8

so i upgraded to PTools9 and Complete Prod. Toolkit for approx. $500

All was good until AVID just announced Pro Tools10 at an upgrade for me of a further $295!!

AVID that just sucks

[FMGProductions100]

I don't know much about pro-tools being an FL 9 user myself... Does pro-tools use similar VST's as FL? Nexus? Komplete? East west symphonic orchestra etc... ? Does pro tools also work on PC? I'm on windows 7 64 bit...

This looks pretty promising, I'm finding FL too slow, FL 10 was terrible. I hated the play list on it.

Thanks for this video, was inspiring. I might pick this up if it's worth it.
