Pro Tools for Me

Finally got my new Pro Tools system installed last night. I installed most of it over the weekend but was still having problems with my midi setup inside of Pro Tools.

I stopped by RobotSpeak for a new software sampler. I picked up Native Instruments Kontact. After some registration crap I got it all hooked up and now my Pro Tools is rocking along. Much better than Emagic Logic.

More music on the way.

My Emagic Dilemma

So, I have almost given up on Emagic Logic audio software. How bad the interface and overall “logic” of the product is, is just killing it for me. Although this product is said to be the most stable of the new audio plugin programs I’m not sure that is a good trade off for how maddeningly aggrevating it is.

I got some good advice from the guys down at Robot Speak and they told me what I feared. “Everybody has this problem and we all just put up with it because it’s the most stable platform out right now.” While it wasn’t exactly what I wanted to hear I was glad that they took the time to talk me down from the ledge.

My dilemma is this: Should I pay the money to upgrade a program that I hate, in the hopes that it will work the way I want it in the higher version or do I cut bait and run. My other audio choice is to get Protools and get the Native Instruments plugins to do what I want. Either way it’s going to be about $600-$800 to get me going again.

I guess I am kinda fucked. Maybe I should just go back to outboard gear.

mmmm donut wisdom

As you wander on through life,
sister/brother, whatever be your goal,
keep your eye upon the donut,
and not upon the hole.
