QUOTE (damann @ Aug 25 2002, 04:23) put mister 001 in front of an ssl desk and you'll find that what he does with it doesn't sound anything like as good as what mr ssl trained engineer does with an 001. Mmhh.. In the same situation, just replace the 001 with a 896 (just to name one :-) and you WILL hear the difference. Sorry, but the A/D stage is VERY importnat, Digi001 is just not in the competition (really poor sound & dynamic IMHO, i did comparisons, even if subjectives)... Sorry if i misanderstood the original post... Bye. |

hi beezkneez,
what this means in reality is that he's signed an endorsement with digi and they asked him to do some promotion work for the mbox. i'm sure he's probably using it occasionally for putting ideas down when he's not in the studio, but will confidently place my bet that he's NOT making the album on this setup... digi would obviously like to encourage us mac musicians to buy an mbox! don't believe the hype. -------------------- one for all and all for one...

On this subject, is anyone out there using an Mbox with Logic? If so, how's that working out for you? I know we're not supposed to use the Mbox with anything other than PTLE (Digi frown on such activity!) but some reports from the frontline would be interesting.

a good point,
yes, it works fine with logic. there's an asio driver for it available on the steinberg site, that digi don't seem to want to mention! -------------------- one for all and all for one...

Hmm, interesting. I'm still caught in this weird OS 9/OS X limbo - I've got Logic 5.3.0, but not many interfaces have drivers ready for OS X. I think the Mbox has a decent sound for recording, but what are the chances of getting it to work in OS X?

realistically, there is no limbo state,
os9 provides a great resource for making music, osx, well, dosen't! the only reason to be making music with osx right now is your wanting to... it will take at least a year for osx to gain the support that 9 already has! in the meantime, is an os more important than what you do with it? i don't think so... -------------------- one for all and all for one...

Yep! I'm not alone in this, though, am I? |

I'm not alone in this, though, am I? i agree, audio in osx isn't really viable yet, but i also agree with rickenbacker, i'm currently in the limbo state of using os 9 because that's what works, but preferring osx... i'm basically waiting to see whether protools or digital performer gets to osx first... anyone have comparisions between those two (digi vs. motu)? -------------------- there can be hours between the so and the what of the so
