Greetings,

I'm close to buying a Roland VS-2480, but I still have a few questions:

(1) Can I easily get the tracks I record using my PC/Win XP setup's MIDI sequencing software onto the VS-2480? (FYI: my Soundblaster Audigy 2 Platinum-eX sound card has coax & optical SPDIF I/O, firewire and line-level jacks.)

I have been using PT LE 6.2.1 on my g4 dual for the last 10mths. Well when it works it's great, when it starts acting up, Im at a loss. My MAC troubleshooting skills suck and besides frequently visiting the DUC forum for advice. My setup has pissed me off. I just us it to mix and recording my own projects (at home). So if I go with a Roland are my cpu crashing days over?

I JUST GOT A ROLAND 2480CD AND A LCD MONITOR . IM NEW TO HIGH TECH RECORDING SO I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE IS USING THE SAME BOARD CAN TELL ME SOME COOL STUFF TO GET WITH THE UNIT, AND WHAT SOFTWARE RUNS BEST WITH IT WHEN I GO INTO A COMPUTER. THANKS ALSO AREN THERE ANY DVD TUTORIALS ON RECORDING AND Mixing ANYONE KNOWS ABOUT?

What do you think of the 2480 vs Mackie,Tascam,Yamaha etc. regarding the sound quality ( please reference the 2480 not older Roland units they upgraded thier front end on the 2480)

Thanks
Buzz

I have been using ROland for 3 years and may go up to the new 24 track this month...total investment is about $ 3800...
I have 2 effects units, mic preamps etc. how does the Radar compare to the Roland? I suspect it is more money...thanks in advance!
