I have some basic questions for any Pro Tools user.
First of all, I'm a songwriter in Nashville and I'm curious about upgrading to a protools setup. 1. Why choose a Mac instead of a PC? 2. Besides the Protools software, can someone list what all I need? I can't seem to find any complete information on what to buy. And some general price estimates would be great. I'm interested in the HD recording and not simply recording it to the computer's drive I probably sound like an idiot, thats because im pretty new to this. Anyone that could help and be a reference or a guide would be greatly appreciated -------------------- Jesse

Oh yes, I almost forgot.
Buying Logic 5x is an investment that wont cost much in the future to upgrade. You only have to initially spend the money on buying it, but after that upgrades are generally free and simple to install on your mac  (VERY unlike Dodgydesign NoTools/ProFools - you'll pay through your nose for virtually every single upgrade with them - they will 'rob' the money right out of your wallet at every possible turn of a software 'corner', and there is the 'red tape' when performing installations - sooo political)  And then you'll visit your friends who dont use ProFools and realise that you made a big mistake, just like a lot of those PT folks out there who cant bear to admit it.I strongly advise you to go for Logic! And hey, I'm not biased, I would even recommend Cubase SX, DP, or even Nuendo (but you own a proper computer, not a PC)  But dont make the ENORMOUS mistake of buying PT...load of old carp! 
-------------------- Nobody can take from you what you give freely.
