Guyz be sure to specify that PT really sucks for modern producers (aka in the box) ...for tracking and live player iut's exellent but for Producers ....keep it minds that Sonar will be far Superior in the midi dept ....keep PT as an option after ...and giving the quality of sonar summing engine and double precison options and that full 64 bits ....PT is just struggling to be as good nowdayz ....
So really , using PT is to be considered if like Bob you gonna use it's editing and specificty to the fullest , cause it's wehere it shines ...
Not for producers? Woooh....I guess thousands of Producers in major studio's all over the world
aren't using Pro Tools then? Hmmmm...no...not really...
I guess that Modern Producers = Beat Makers, as some of them like to call themselves.
Parenthesis - It always makes me cringe a bit see the title "producer" abused as it is nowadays. I mean, there's a world of difference between George Martin or Alan Moulder and self-promoting DJ's making music on a cracked copy of Fruity Loops in their parents basement who call themselves DJ/Producer... As if the lack of a proper producer entitled any self-promoting "artist" to appropriate the title by default. Self-medicating does not make one a doctor.
Still - even outside the ranks of those so-called "modern producers", there are major artists producing music that's anything but traditional pop or rock band with Pro Tools. Nine Inch Nails come to mind...
