M Box Users Options

[nlowther]

Hey all you MBox users out there.
I want the to get the Mbox 'cause Pro tools is great for what I want . Only thing is Ive been toid by some people that it cant run Virtual Instruments without noticeable latency and chews up processor speed real quick when adding effects.
Tell me its not true, tell me simplicity rules and keep away from the maze that is Logic.

Well, I still have a problem here, if I may again bend everyone's ears...


I read somewhere that Logic Express could be upgraded to Pro for no more than the difference in the cost... that would make Express the obvious choice to me, EXCEPT that I hear it has fairly difficult documentation. That's tough for me, because I *will* be a noob to recording, even though I've sequenced for some time.

I also still like the amount of software that comes with the MBox bundle. Reason especially, where as I would have to go out and buy Reason to use it with Express. VSTi support may become a big deal for me, but I don't know. I'm mostly prolly going to us my Korg and Reason/VSTi. One big thing is that I hate my drumkits on the Korg. (Well, I like one of them, but it's pretty damned limited.
