We bought it for compatibility, mainly. 

Performance is sub par, even on an optimized mac. Logic, Studio One and Live all outperform PT on this machine (prior to any optimization). 

I can have 12 times as many tracks, plug-ins and instruments running in Logic, punch in, add tracks and instruments, set loop points, etc, all in real time w/o a hiccup, all at lowest latency (32 samples) - that's using an Avid audio interface, ironically enough. 

To simply play back a similar mix in PT, I have to increase the buffers to at least 128. I still get an occasional glitch/drop out. And that's just playing back. I wouldn't dare adding an EQ to a track...

I'm also less than excited about the way it handles instruments w/ multiple outputs. Manually creating aux tracks for each output and assigning each of them one at a time? Really? And then if you want to "render", start again, create audio tracks, label them and assign inputs one at a time... And then record, in real time. Couldn't you make this any longer, Avid?

To be fair, I do like certain things about it, and I'll keep on dabbling w/ it and reading manuals because I will to have to use it. 

Hi Bapu!

New York - Same building complex as last year, but different tower, on a higher floor, with a much bigger place. It's so nice to finally have all my studio stuff w/ me.

We're heading for Vegas and the desert permanently, and I don't really tolerate heat, so I thought I'd get rid of as much hair as I could. ;)

Rain's married now Bapu.  Guys always cut their long hair once the knot has been tied.
(Or is it usually the ladies that do that???)
