Axe-Master
Forgive the lengthy post to come......I’m in unfamiliar,waters now.
As I have become sorta frustrated with the current Audio/Midi behavior of my 2018 MacBook Pro, not only the occasionally less-than ideal interactions with the betas of AxeEdit III and Logic, but numerous other onerous
Symptoms such as increased RF or some other interference that I believe has to do with the various Thunderbolt 3 hubs and dongles required to attach all my audio/computer gear (AFX III, Multiple UAD Apollos, IconnectMidi, Linnstrument, Tripleplay, et.al...) and LOUD fans most of the time. And most scarily..I attempted to update to Mac Mojave Public beta, which made Every audio device completely unusable (silent)..Which doesn’t bode well for the future...(yeah I know these are all betas...but..) and I rolled back
To High Sierra.
..So I’ve decided to try to adapt a recently purchased well appointed PC tower put together for VR use..I’ve been a Mac guy since 1984 and really wouldn’t know a .dll if it bit me on the ass, so questions abound as I flounder around the new setup which I think has great potential......
all my FAS and UAD drivers and software on this PC seem, in my initial attempts , to be more stable, and
To my ear sound even better, with a silent PC and seemingly much less RF noise.
BIG QUESTION #1- I have searched the interwebs but can’t get a clear answer about AGGREGATE
Devices, apparently one thing that Mac OS does better...is ASIOforall ( which I don’t really u derstand yet)the only way to be able to use The III
And it’s USB in/outs at the same time as my Apollo’s in’s and monitoring , Is there a PC DAW out there or some magic app I haven’t seen that will create the routing ease I’m used to? Seems that the 2 daws I’ve tried so far (reaper and bitwig) only allow one interface to be active at a time........
BQ2- Which Daw provides the most similar experience to Logic?
BQ3. Tips for optimizations for a music creation PC..?
BQ4. Am I Pissing in the wind on this?? (I’m still going back and forth between the two computers...
I’m an old dog and new tricks are increasingly challenging......)
I may consider reaching out to experts on this for maybe a skpye session or two if it’s worthwhile
Thanks!!!!
