what are the plans for an AU implementation? I feel like I am missing the party....
And for custom mixes, if anyone wanted to mix cabs then they could route one amp to more cab blocks, can they not?
does anyone know 1) if this is also stand-alone and 2) why this does not have a very important industry standard RTAS fomat available for it?
RTAS sucks....:razz I'm just kidding. I do hate AVID so by association PT is always going to be a target for me.
If you are looking for a standalone type application though I would recommend savihost. You can take any VST or VSTi and make it a standalone app very easily.
I've been working on AVID systems since 1992 and I hate them. They don't play nice with anything and you are basically forced into their proprietary nightmare of overpriced stuff.Uhh, hat'em all you want, but they only teach Pro Tools and Avid in any reputable technical institution for music/post (Logic too for midi stuff)... as well as video editing (final cut pro too but avid is for the hardcore stuff).... but Avid is the main recognized industry standard at the audio engineering society as well.
It does not respond when using Lecab 2. And my machine is clean. Or is it working for you?
I also tried Tobybear's Minihost and when i load my input and output as my soundcard proper ins and outs... and then load lecab - it makes machine gun sounds... this vst platform is ajoke... i have never ever experienced anything remotely close to this with anything Avid or Digidesign related.
Huh? Last time I checked, nobody was sticking a gun to anyone's head to use anything. LOL.They don't play nice with anything and you are basically forced into their proprietary nightmare of overpriced stuff.
I only agree that they had some years of questionable garbage in midi, but that was over come in the mid-late versions of PT.Yes it does work for the most part (after years of questionable garbage),
Its the only software that allows to to perform every single function with the keyboard. This is why its called "Pro Tools".but in the last decade there really isn't any reason to stick with them with advances in CPU speeds and the move to digitial acquisition.
And is VST not a proprietary format?But the proprietary formats...
(and incompatibility between their own products, try editing on Media Composer and then send it to Airplay for broadcast...it didn't work) has soured me permanently.
Which hamburger? Which funky timeline? The universe window? Thats the coolest thing they invented to allow you to instantly go to any spot in the session.I hate their interfaces as well...what is up with that stupid hamburger and funky timeline?
I've lived through almost 20 years of their shenanigans of tying hardware to applications and forcing you to go strictly with their product line....
I could sit here and spend weeks telling you about AVID problems I've had to deal with over the years. The bottom line is that every system has it's own set of characteristics that make it "special" and nothing is full proof. Even systems that I would prefer over AVID have their issues and I won't pretend they don't. But I won't have to pay for 200 client seats in order to use a Unity server which is baiscally hardware that I already paid for.
And most of those will use non-proprietary codecs so that you can use other applications and systems. You wouldn't believe the headache we went through to try to configure a frameserver on a Media Composer a few months ago so that we could get it to spit out to a serving that would convert it to mpeg in order to load into an Omneon Media Grid. And AVID acted like the frameserver was some new revolutionary idea; I've been using them for at least 10 years now and I paid $20 for one that actually worked unlike the DOS based garbage that we paid through the nose for.
Being the biggest and industry standard doens't make it the best. It just makes it the most popular. If that was what mattered most in life than Line6 would obviously outperform the AxeFX.
And to answer your question about lecab, it's been quite a while since I messed with it, but it worked perfectly fine with savihost last time I fired it up. Make sure that you're using ASIO drivers is the first thing that comes to mind for me.
Is that because the software is light years ahead of cubase or sonar? I dont see any of those programs containing or needing a series of 10 textbooks to fully master. Please kindly provide support to back-up your claim, because unfortunately I must point out kindly to you that it is an unsupported claim.Yep, Avid suck large.
Just because they have US institutions in their pocket doesn't make it standard IMO. I come across more

I'm not interested in trying to reply to every one of your comments, not because they weren't well thought out, but because there was a major disconnect between what I said and what you read and that's probably on my part. I typed that thing late last night.......
