I OWN 3 MACS..... ROLAND 24 BIT VX MIXER..... DM-5 w/pintech pad controllers....
my macs.... (1) G4 933 mhz ..... (1) G3 beige w/G4 chip.... (1) G4 Titanium powerbook All (3) MACS have FIREWIRE... & USB.... (beige has usb/firewire pci card..) WHAT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND FOR A DRUMMER TRYING TO GET BANG FOR THE BUCK.....?????? THESE WERE MY TOP CHOICES.... M-BOX w/ pro tools LE TASCAM US-224 w/ Cubasis M-AUDIO FIREWIRE 410 (soon to be released) EMI- 2/6/M (not sure about this one) I am mainly interested in sending PDIF out from my mixer into my computer for recording or perhaps doing 1 or 2 track multi-track recording..... I dont need anything over the top.... and figured USB might be just fine for my situation.... IS USB OK??? or am I making a bad mistake by leaning towards the M-BOX???? SHOULD I JUMP ON THE FIREWIRE BANDWAGON with the M-AUDIO 410???? Do I really NEED FIREWIRE???? ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED |

......... Thanks for the Referral @ Sam Ash...... That guy Tom.. did the M-BOX for $410.00 + tax.......... NO SHIPPING...
I just dont know when it is arriving... didnt get Tracking info yet....... I figured for my purposes........ (i have a 12 input Roland Digital mixer) I can port my mixer into the M-BOX through PDIF ports and sent all 12 channels to my computer into Protools.......... Now, I will just have to figure out Pro Tools.... Digidesign's site seems well organized and they offer tutorials and training pdfs........... so, i am psyched.... And, when I outgrow the hardware, I can option to perhaps get the Digi001........ or break the bank on the Digi002..... KINDA PSYCHED TO CHECK OUT THESE NEW TOOLS................ i will keepya posted............. now, if anybody can tell me why my '82 BUICK REGAL wont start..... (wont turnover) that would be even better......... sposin, if i didnt spend all my money on musical equipment, i might have a car that wasnt built 2 decades ago.... OH WELL.......... WE'RE TALKING FUNCTIONALITY HERE............... |
