Re: good USB type C audio interface that is accessible as I need to buy a new mac

I still use my Digi 003. I used to use a firewire 800 to firewire 400 cable, but then I bought a firewire to thunderbolt adaptor and it works much better and is far more reliable now. Definitely worth a look. Hope that helps. Alan Sent from my iPhone > On 20 Nov 2018, at 20:47, Nick

Re: recommendations for control surfaces and audio interfaces

Thanks for the article on surfaces Steve. I'm still using my trusted 003 and am reluctant to change as it works very well for me. I've held my MacBook pro and pro tools behind a version or two though as I thought the 003 sadly wouldn't be compatible moving forward and I didn't hasn't want to

Re: aggregate device settings to have surface and interface

Are you using your 003 with PT 12.8? I've noticed its only officially supported up to 12.7 and was wondering whether to hold off upgrading. Many thanks for your input. Alan Sent from my iPhone > On 21 Nov 2017, at 04:32, Nathaniel Kile wrote: > > Hello everyone, >

Re: Interface

Hi, Yes, the Focusrite 6i6 is very accessible and I use it with pro tools. I use it as a back up to my Digi 003. Its very simple to use. It has a small light beside the gain knob to alert you do clipping so apparently this is handy if you have a little vision to be able to spot it, which

Hi Rocco, I'm running a 2012 Macbook pro with yosemite and pro tools 12.4. I first encountered this problem with the same machine whilst on mavericks and it is indeed the most frustrating and swear inducing problem I've encountered. Whilst on mavericks, I used to use a Digi 002 when I first

Re: Trying to locate a button on the Digi 003

Hi Poppa B,I’ve attached the Digi 003 physical description text file that Slau sent to me when I got my 003 recently. I’m not familiar with the button you’re talking about off the top of my head but everything on the 003 is in here, it’s gold though obviously I’m still learning it.Hope this helps

Thanks for this Slau, I had a list already but this looks far more comprehensive and minus the irrelevant for us windows commands. Also, I got my hands on a Digi 003 so needless to say the layout spec you sent before has been absolute gold as I learn my way around it. Cheers, Alan Sent

Re: what would you pay for a comprehensive Pro Tools tutorial?

I for one would certainly be interested in such a series. Regarding a structure, I like the sound of one hour segments in a series of around ten or however many it took to cover all bases. An hour is a good length to digest and replay where necessary. As for price I'm reluctant to say a number

I'm not totally sure regarding the whole server issue. I'll need to look into that in more detail too I think. In the meantime, I've borrowed an m box and a small USB Behringer surface to get me through the last few weeks of college, but obviously this is not a long term solution. It did get me

Hi all. Slau, could this be the solution to my query the other day? The retractable USB numpad sounds perfect, although I'm not entirely sure what is meant by the term modifiers in this case... Is it the issue with using command or option on the MBP with the numbers on the USB numpad?

I use a Digi 002. I believe they are not available new any more but you'll get one on ebay for a decent price. As has already been said, I wouldn't dream of recording or especially mixing a session without it. It simply will make you work a lot faster and frankly I've found my mixes with it are
