Hows it goin. I'm required to get a pro tools equipped power book with an M-Box for school. I'm not too familiar with the Pro Tools interface (used for a little kinda confusing) I am a Fan of the Cubase interface however and I am a little more familiar with it.
I will have Pro Tools LE no matter what. but if I go out and buy Cubase would I be throwing my money away. I know that Pro Tools is considered "the industry standard". Does anyone have any opinions about these two programs?? (and what about Logic I've never even touched a systen with logic and I know nothing about it's capabilities) *edit* oh yeah I should also tell you that I am goin to school for Music Production and engineering / Music Synthesis. which means that I will be doing alot of Live audio. as well as Midi (I have to have almost every NI suite) so I need good audio and good midi I think This post has been edited by slowintrepid: Wed 21 Jan 2004, 08:10 |

Pro Tools V 6.4 is the very latest and the Apple OSX version is brilliant. Midi has everyting and more than I need and as far as Audio goes, you can't beat it.
However, Everytime you upgrade your Apple OS using the update software feature, you can guarantee there will!! be a problem. so be careful with those OS updates - if it ain't broke leave it as it is!! Logic Pro, is another story, and I am seriuosly thinking of getting that soon, just take a look at the plugins and power of what you get, it's superb!!! SO, if you're serious about working as a pro in the music industry get BOTH. But ... one step at a time, Pro Tools is so easy to use, it's just so CPU hungry, unless you are blessed with an HD system with all of their powercore cards etc, then you'll be flying .. one day ...
