I just took my new Powerbook G4 out of the box yesterday, and have now turned towards selecting my interface and DAW equipment. Since I'm relatively new to home digital recording, and have a limited budget, I'd like to make an educated decision before I start forking over money. I've messed around a little with Live, and have some friends who are fond of Pro Tools and have watched them use it. However, all this talk of dongles and a lack of "sociability" on the part of Pro Tools has led me to consider my other options, such as DP and Logic.
Is Logic really as scary and difficult as some people have said? Is ProTools incompatible with other programs/interfaces, and does that even matter? What sort of interface/DAW combos have the least bugs? Since I'll be recording primarily through mics, I was considering buying the Digidesign 002R with ProTools LE. Is this something anyone would recommend? Also, the words mobility and versatility come to mind... Probably not enough info to get any pinpointed responses, but any help is surely appreciated. Thanks. W. |

I have used PT and Logic... IMHO... Logic is better at dealing with midi but PT is the king of dealing with audio sequencing... PT works a bit like using actual tape recorder in some ways and is easy to understand if you come from a hardware recording/mixing background.
I have not used DP but it has always seemed a good compromise of both Logic and PT to me
