Comparison with Avalon and ua

Hey all

Anyone know if there are any issues with running Pro Tools LE 6.4 with the Mbox running under Windows XP SP2? All I need to do is open some sessions that were given to me to see what is wrong with them...

Let me know if anyone has this scenario working ok or not! I unfortunately do not have access to PTLE 6.9.. I'm borrowing my friends basically!

Thanks!

Greetings all, my first post here. I've read lots of useful info here and now I'm after some specific info.

Hi All,

I have a question about that item in the subject. I have an option to buy one of these in near mint condition with the R-BUS card for about $100. Is it worth going for it? I vaguely remember buying one back in 2001 but not with the R-BUS and it was not the Pro version. It was good mixer, fun to use, but fairly complex to setup.

Hi - I'm currently building a DAW and I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the following configuration. I'll be using SONAR, Waves plugins, soft synths and I'd like be able to have stability with at least 40 tracks of audio/midi. I won't be recording more than 16 tracks of audio at once.

Its really hard to find a professional I/O these days that supports lower sample and bit rates such as a 8kHz and 8bit, is it pretty much a given that I must have this support at least for playback because I tend to work with low quality audio in my field of work.

Can anyone tell me about their transition from ADAT to computer?
Can anyone recommend a good card for getting my ADAT tracks into the computer? I'm looking at the G5's

Did you keep using your ADAT to record with? I would like only to use my ADAT to archive and remix my S-VHS ADAT tapes if possible.

What software are you mixing with?

Are these new DVD recorders that record CDRS suitable for CD mastering? Many will have 4X as the slowest speed and recently I found one with 8X as the slowest speed. THANKS for any help on this.

what kind of difference would a preamp make on drums? Right now I'm running a really low budget setup. I have sm57's on the toms and snare and one overhead condenser all running to a Yamaha mixer and being run into my hard disk recorder. The sound is ok but I get a "roomy" sound... So i was thinking i should get a compressor and some preamps. Should i get a preamps for all of the mics?

anyone, have any thoughts on this card? anyone, using it, and if so, what do you think?
