Is the XL version worth purchasing versus the lastest 'regular' version?

I'm ready to jump into Samplitude but want to know whether it's worth the extra $ for the realtime room simulator/convolution that Version 8 Professional offers vs the offline room sI'm capability in Version 8 Classic.

Ok my Setup is as follows

When Bad Company, the Beatles, the Stones, Neil Young, The Who, Van Halen, etc, etc all made those classic recordings in the 60's, 70's and 80's, they used studios employing technology that was primitive compared to the average $1,500 DAW you can buy on Musician's Friend nowadays, right? Or wrong?

If it's digital...isn't it going to reproduce perfectly?

Hey guys (and girls),

Does anyone know of good online places/programs to download professional studio sounding hard house, hard nrg, hard trance, techno kickdums?
kickdrums from my gear, friends and programs i'm using aren't fat enough anymore.. i'm using effects and eqs to try to fatten it up and i know there are better samples out there..

someone let me know pleaze

Hey everyone -

I just am finishing an EP with my band, and we just went to a very nice, well repsected studio in my area to do the overdubs and mixing. We recorded the basic tracks at our well outfitted home studio.

Overdubs went great, and it was on to mixing. All the basic tracks sound stellar.

Greetings,

I was just wondering what the professionals thought about the Propellerhead recording software that is availible, I dled some screen shots and the only thing I can tell you is that it looks neat lol... what do you guys think? 8)
