I've read the many discussions in this forum, but didn't find my exact situation. I'm trying to choose software for live multi-track recording using a MOTU firewire interface. I have a 1.2GB iBook w 1GB ram, 10.3.9.
I doubt I'll ever go near midi. Just want to location record multi-tracks, then mix them down. Pro Tools file compatibility a must. CPU usage light enough to allow for recording 24 tracks of 24/96 at once on my iBook. Seems like it comes down to Digital Performer vs Logic. Opinions, thoughts, tirades? Thanks |

For live audio, especially with no need for MIDI you could just stick with the Audio Desk 2 software that ships with the 828/Traveller interfaces. Rickenbacker has it nailed. It also supports OMF import/export - AudioDesk supports complete multitrack session interchange with Pro Tools, including track layout, frame-accurate audio region placement and volume and pan automation data.
For more info, check MOTU's AudioDesk 2 feature list. Plus it'd give you the chance to tweak a lot of the audio settings, get used to the MOTU interface (especially useful if you are already used to ProTools set ups) and let you decide if you really need to upgrade to DP. There is an upgrade price from Audio Desk to DP should you decide to do that. DP is much more feature rich for mixing options, power, nuances and includes MIDI support, but if you are strictly looking to do live mixes and board level quality compositions, then AudioDesk may be all you need. peace, deacon -------------------- |
