Hello, I am very interested in switching from Sonar Producer over to Protools, but still, after much research, have a couple of questions.
What is the difference between Protools Native and Protools Native HD? I am currently running a MOTU 24IO audio interface with Sonar and would like to be able to continue to use it with Protools, at least initially, in an effort to save some up-front cash. Can I do this? >From what I've read, you need a special Protools Native card and an Avid interface if running the HD system. I guess what I'm trying to figure out is if there is a flavor of Protools that will allow me to use my existing audio interface, and if so, which one is it? I want to be able to record at least 10-16 MIDI tracks using virtual instruments, as well as 6-8 vocal tracks (including stacks) and possibly 4-6 other audio tracks for live instrumentation. I generally run compression and a tuning plug on vocal tracks, as well as some form of reverb and delay. Which Mac system and version of PT do I need to be looking for. I am trying to stay away from the $10,000 range as much as possible, at least until I can build up some funds to go bigger. Thanks for any guidance in making this switch. I need to do it ASAP but want to get it right. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Pro Tools Accessibility" group.
