LMBO!

Yes, that's the whole point. Especially the DA is VITAL in order to hear the truth. I mean - who would like to take mix decisions upon hearing influence of jitter or such phenomenas?

I'm not...

Wait a minute, I now have an answer to that - you might attain the feeling of NOT having to process the basic audio by any manner, or at least - process it less to make it fit.

You might attain some workable midrange.


I totally agree about Bob's statement regarding older soundcards. The Yamaha DSP Factory, for instance, is beating the crap out of any "audiophile"...

Pingu.

I saw someone mentioned the UA stuff here.

If you ever consider UA stuff (for them having tubes), then - please - look at the Pendulum products line before deciding what to do.

Earlier in this thread I wrote phase....

Ok.

So today I did my usual "grab the audio that was formerly recorded in my floating point host and mix it in SAW now as I have SAW". Well...I don't...

How are your monitors connected? To the analogue out on the Fireface's rear or via a TRS from the headphone jack?

I kind of do not get what you want to do...

Where do you want the main mix to...

What RME card do you have?

If your master bus in SAW is dedicated (assign button #1) to the first analogue RME device, I suppose you should assign aux 6 with assign button #2 in SAW and also...

To my ears SAW just sound more in phase when a lot of things are playing together. Transients are so well maintained.

Yeah - phase. That's the thing I hear. And I guess I like that.

Nah. Reconsider that. There are some ups and downs between platforms. Initially use your 002 for getting into SAW, but do not ditch the box completely. I think it will be a lot easier to change the...

Mbox 1 - Focusrite supply the mic preamps to a Digidesign hardware product.

Mbox 2 - Focusrite do not supply the preamps for Mbox 2 and instead make an own interface (Saffire) which is not...

Hi Pingu.

I think it's a good idea to stick with your 002 for a while. You'll most likely notice that there is an over-all improvement by the switching over to SAW from PT LE - a sonic...

Bob,

Yes.

To quote myself:

"But I am happy and I have no problems with my situation and I respect any musician with any type of gear."

To which I'd like to add:

Upgrading myself to a verison of SAW that is "more" than basic would probably not affect my results, if the mixing algortihms are the same within the software versions. I can see some benefits with...

The difference between what's being accomplished by using either a M-audio 2496 card and a Lavry Blue 4496 for digital in and out has for me been more than subtle.

The difference between playing...

Johannes,

Regarding the tracking; what depends there is really the A/D-part. Any host should just place the output of one or more A/D's in one or more files somewhere on the HD. The host should...

Hello everyone.

Hope you're doing fine. I'm trapped in ice and I am fighting the polar bears here in Sweden (yeah you know the drill - they walk all over the streets and they chew peoples heads...

Thnx perry & Niles for yet another hug. Land ohoy!

My second step is, in some decent future that is, to put some §'s into some additional SAW-plugs. Any directions in this matter are highly...

Thanks for all the additional welcoming.

Thank you Bob for the welcome and kudos to you for your great algorithm!

The way SS combines a reasonable amount of tracks is...astonishingly undestructive. After auditioning your platform I feel...

Hello everybody.

I have just purchased the SS Basic and am awaiting permission and istructions to download my new baby, so I'm kind of a kid here in this forum as well.
