Honking Baritone Sax

I'm looking to capture that honking 50's/60's/Motown Bari Sax sound in an upcoming session. My instinct is to try a Royer R-121 near the bell, and have a Lawson L47 2-3 feet back to capture the sound of the whole horn.

Most of my experience with bari saxes has been in more of a jazz context. I'm open to suggestions!

First impressions

I'm excited about -the extra processing power, think that the upgrade deal for the first 6 months, at any rate, is excellent and love the idea of midi time stamping. :)

I'm disappointed that Apogee are only allowed in via a legacy port. I want to connect direct. Maybe in time Digi will let them make an AMBus card. :(

Impending market chaos?

So, tomorrow, or soon thereafter, Digi is announcing new generation TDM hardware and the new input unit for LE. How ready are they and the third party developers for the paradigm shift? Sounds like there's going to be a 96 kHz gml/oxford eq plug (likely the compressor too?), but are the other plugins going to be up to speed? Is there a need to update the Pro Control, or should it do fine?
