Well I hope this doesn't turn into another poop flinging festival. Things have been reasonably calm around here lately.
Turn into? The opening post is already nothing but just that. Why someone feels compelled to post a link to this ridiculous video on the X2 forum is completely beyond me. This thread should go into the trash bin asap.

I have no issues with pro Tools either, but the older versions, in terms of work flow are a pain. I've used version 6 and found it beyond clunky. Version 9 was a much needed improvement. The hardest thing for me at first was to get used to the MAC way of doing things after years of nothing but Windows.

You couldn't of posted that vid a few weeks ago? :)

Would have saved me quite a bit of wasted time adding Pro Tools to my mix environment.
I've experienced some of the gain-staging issues they talk about and have spent more time nudging tracks back and forth into time and/or calculating the additional manual delay-compensation to correct the flaws in what PT ironically calls AUTO-delay-compensation.

An example: I've got my buffer at 1024, mix some tracks.  Switch buffer to 128 to record a few more tracks, drums and bass are no longer lined up.  Line them up and record my tracks.  Push buffer back to 1024 to avoid the dreaded 'overload' message.  Guitar, bass, and drums are all out of time. Re-line up the tracks, rinse, repeat.

So far the best thing I've noticed about PT10 is the B3-Emulation is pretty killer.  That's about it.

Just goes to show like I said in another post, the grass is not greener.  I will say this though, I'd rather have an occasional crash here or there rather than to spend all my creative time on re-lining up transients.

Eh that's just Freddie for ya. 

What's more important here is your avatar. I used to love that little dude as a kid but totally forget what the name of the cartoon is. Help a Beepster out? I wanna see if there are any on youtube.

I only have PTLE 7.4 running on a Vista partition, but I also like some of the instruments.   I believe the AIR group left Avid and were acquired by MAudio, maybe, and if so there coulp be some nice stuff coming out of that.
 
Personally, the PTLE interface just never clicked with me.  I tried just so I could say I did, but it never really panned out.   At this point I'd have to be paid to work in PTLE.

I just played a Brown Note Symphony for ya. Unfortunately Smellovision technology has not advanced enough for you to enjoy it fully over the internet.

And now if you'll excuse me... I need to open some windows. ;-)

There's lots and lots of them . Watching that guy is a much better waste of time than this thread. Plus he's got hillarious music going with his banter.
I think in the english world the cartoon was called "The Line", but you probably find more videos searching for "La Linea" (no need to look for english versions, as the guy's gibberish is understood fluently in the whole galaxy).  If you need a break from his brabbling and the backing tunes, but still want to watch the guy, watch this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWaUbcUXMLY

I just finished reading "The Spot On The Wall" by Hugh Phlung Pooh :)


You know what they say, "If it's brown, flush it down".

Well it says PT has floating point now anyways. But who cares. I mean just turn down where your clipping so not really a big deal either way. These kind of posts beg trollers to come reek havoc here. Which isn't to hard to get people started around here.
