Any thoughts? I happen be a very big supporter of Digital Performer. I dont understand why the hype about Pro Tools. Any other DP users in the house?

I have been reasearching for about 2 months now and after pretty much deciding on a Dual 1.8GHz Power Mac (I would add about a gig of ram), an Mbox w/Pro Tools, and probably Reason, someone has turned me onto the idea of just getting a nice digital recorder instead.

just curious if anyone using dp 4 would have any insight, I'm currently looking to set up a mobile recording rig that would contain the following:

Focusrite octapre mic preamp's x3
MOTU 24i/o
powermac 2.0 or 2.5 dp with 3 gigs of ram
digital performer 4

i know its a really dumb question but, is there a difference between digital coax and regular rca video cable? could i use video cable? my computer is going to be about 20' away from my digital converter and its going to cost me about 60$ jsut for a cable. if i could avoid this then its not all that bad but if i need it then ill just have to do it.

Hi all,

Got possibly an obvious question for anybody who knows. As maybe most of you know the UK the UK music chart rules are changing requiring all record companies to not only release and standard CD and Vinyl formats, but I've recently been asked for something called a "Digital Master" for downloads, as the 'Download Chart' is merging with the normal charts April 17th 2005.

Im looking for a digital mixer that has up to 4 coax,S/PDIF stereo inputs,and a coax digital output--I now roland has made a m-1000 that is out of production,the ones I do find,the retailer wants to really put the screws to me.
My question is----is there another mixer out there that does the same thing? :?

Looking for a mic preamp with optical digital outs. Have seen several listed with digital outs but not sure if they or optical or not. Not looking to spend more than $500.00 so maybe this should go in budget gear! Will be using the pre for my Earthworks SRO and going into my minidisc. Any help would be appreciated.

hi,

As I'm in the market for a new mixer the specs of this one looks quite intersting. Anyone here got any experience with this mixer recording any sort of classical music?

What is it used for?

(I got it along with a Lexicon 2400 (used package deal)).

It seems to have 2 sets of AES/EBU in/outs.

thanks,
