Where I mix everything given a choice
Logic is great, Ableton is unparalleled for creation for me, but for mixing I've never found a more intuitive, extremely fast, & productive mixing environment. In fairness I started on tape then Pro Tools so it's my home-I wouldn't compose in Pro Tools but for mixing? It's absolutely my 1st choice.
Avid turned a corner after the abysmal v10/11 releases
Hate that Avid implemented a subscription service for receiving updates for your PERPETUAL license. However, the implementation of a number of HD features (increased track counts, unlimited busses, gain reduction meter, etc) is very welcome. Too little too late, but still welcome.
A must have in any studio. (home or dedicated)
If you mix and you have never used pro tools, you are really missing out on great features. I recommend getting the HD variant.
El standar del mundo
Es imposible no gustarme. Es el alto estandar a nivel mundial. Lo uso a diario para mis grabaciones
Complicated yet good
You just need to put some efforts to get the best quality of output. The quality of highly processed output is great, also recording process is efficient here!
Um, it's ProTools
Yes, it's true that most studios keep older versions of PT on backup systems, and for whatever reason certain engineers will prefer certain vintages. I suspect this is because the layout and overall user experience changes slightly from version to version. This is my first version, so I'm using this latest incarnation and loving it. After being in so many studios over the decades and watching engineers work their magic, it's great to finally have my own system. Running on Windows 10 without issues knock on wood
I think everyone knows about this one... is The Definitive Daw for audio Recording and Processing
The Only thing i don't like about it is the MIDI interfacing and the need for iLok, aside that is freaking good
protools has always been the weakest DAW for MIDI, that's just not what it was designed for... I thought the iLok was a drag at first, but so many of the top plugin companies require it now that I am glad I had to get one. There's stuff I never woulda tried if I hadn't needed an iLok for protools (even though I seldom use pt). Its still a vast improvement over those early USB dongles they used to make us use for copy protection. They were the worst! and they were all proprietary so you filled up a pile of USB slots with them if you wanted to sue all your fancy plugins on a track. Its a vast improvement to centralize all your software licenses on 1 USB port.
I ended up leaving Pro Tools after the version I had no longer allowed me to import audio files into a project. I use an Apple computer, so I swapped over to Logic Pro X and I love it!
I remember when logic wasn't owned by apple and it was called creator.... and it was just MIDI and it only ran right on an Atari PC
even when protools started to become usable you wound up running one computer for MIDI and another to record, Atari and a mac or PC respectively... then Logic became Logic and notator became Cubase and things just got way better... Cubase became Cubase VST.... you guys have it so good.
