Do you need hardware to run Pro Tools?

Simon.

This might be a stupid question but I was wondering how u use your hardwarecompressor? I dont mean how to operate it, but how u hook it up.

I understand how to hook it up when I`m tracking (Mic - Micpre - Compressor - MOTU - Cubase... Right?)

Does software based mastering compare well to hardware based mastering with devices like the TC Electronic Finalizer or the Focusrite MixMaster or the Drawmer DC2476?

Does anyone own any of these hardware devices?

I was using the Reason 3.0 Mastering suite last night and I must tell you guys that it is amazing! I don't know if you really need a hardware compressor. I know Reason can't do audio but you can always export a file from a program like Cubase as an audio file and then load it into the Reason sampler and then use the compressor (or M-class mastering suite).

Mixing to

Philips hardware CD recorder

Does anyone know of a good drum machine and sequencer for piano and guitar. Hardware that is. I have a EMU 0404 card and software installed in my computer, but I keep getting crashes, so I am having a hard time trying to transfer CD's from my DAW recorder, 8 track, to my computer software, which is a Cubase software program and a Patchmix mixer.

Hello! I currently have a PreSonus Firestation. It's great, but... I need more inputs :-. So, I was wondering, since I am using my Firestation on my firewire card (PCMCIA), and only using 1 port (1/2), could I also hook up let's say an M-Audio Solo to the other port and also record from both hardware.

I need a cheap (

How about the cheap Lexicon models? Sound OK? I'm not too demanding; I just need a decent Hall or Plate that doesn't sound like a tin can, man.

Thanks,
