![]() ![]() ProTools still “doesn’t play with the other children” well in the “sandbox”. While that may be true to some extent, the exclusivisity(?) of PT has been exposed as more PlugIns and more sophisticated processing software has been created. I would agree that ProTools was the “standard” and in some circles still is in DAW operations. If there is anything we have learned over the last 5 or 10 years is there are no more “absolutes” in the recording processes anymore. One of them remains the big dog, the top dog the PT Dog… As I said, sometimes, what you need is what you have… But to deny that PT owns the pro / semi-pro market is to deny that for all the talk about green cars, Americans like their SUV’s and F-150’s it’s to deny that Coke owns a much larger market share than Pepsi, even if they don’t have Beyonce plugging their product: they are not equals. I’ve heard of getting certified for Pro Tools (to work in Studios), I’ve heard of getting certified of Logic (thank you very much) but, not for Sonar, etc… ![]() In a home system, a do it yourself system, a mom and pop operation- they are great… And, I’ve seen some projects totally produced in Logic (my DAW of choice), etc… but, not with the proliferation that PT enjoys. They make a PT HD version and an everybody else version. There is no Cubase HD, having Waves, Avid (they later merged) and other manufacturers specifically tailoring their products to operate with it. You can disagree but I’ve yet to see $70, $80 or $100K systems specifically designed to run Cubase. But, any studio running Cubase or Sonar is not going to get my business. Thank you, I have! Granted, PT was initially focused on the recording of digital audio. ![]()
