I've had the Digisign AIR Ensemble for a 2 years. I love the sound this produces when I am looking for a leslie type sound or for any type of chorus or vibrato application. It is amazingly easy to use as there are only six preset sounds on it that can't be manipulated with any further parameters. This is both a good and a bad thing. It is good b...
I've been using the AIR DB 33 for two months nw. It provides me quick and easy organ sound that I can play with my MIDI controller. The AIRE DB is quite a realistic organ sound, and while it definitely doesn't match a real B3, it is just as good as most organ sounds on synthesizers, if not better and more versatile. I haven't used any other virt...
I've had the Digidesign Impact for about 11 months and it has become an integral part of my plug-in collection. I love the way it sounds on electric guitars and electric keyboards. It makes for a thicker sound and adds a nice crunch to guitars. It is also extremely easy to use as it only has 3 parameters, making for a simple layout that is easy...
I really can't say enough about the amount of detail involved with the Digidesign Hybrid . I haven't used original RSF PolyKobol analog synth that this is modeled after, but I don't have to do know that this is a great reproduction. It has sounds that could definitely be coming from an analog synth if I didn't know better, and an interface that ...
Besides the lone MIDI issue there is not much to complain about, the built in mic preamps sound great, its really easy to setup and use, and its runs flawlessly. I used this unit on lone from a friend, and as great as it is I can't really see paying full price for it. Its an excellent unit, but not $1200 excellent. I'd much rather...
the Digidesign HD/c/24 pro tools studio bundle is one of the most powerful bundles on the market. My first experience with this was when I was doing an internship when I first go out of college. The studio had this in the set up and actually they had just purchased it for around 5 grand. That’s pretty expensive but it packs a extremely powerful ...
While certainly a bit outdated at this point, the Digidesign Digi 001 can still be a somewhat viable audio interface if you've got an older computer and are just looking for something to get ideas down. I'm not sure if it will run with the newest versions of Pro Tools, although I don't see why it wouldn't. The good news about the Digi 001 is t...
Digidesign's Control 24 is the most complete digital 'console' workstation available to control Pro Tools. It's been around for a good amount of time and I've probably used at least ten of these throughout my time working as an audio engineer. It seems to be the default interface for those studios and rooms that don't have a console. You can ...
The Mbox 2 is a portable audio interface that you can use in your home studio and sync it your monitors, mic, and almost any outboard gear that you use. The Mbox 2 allows you to have a pro tools setup in the privacy of your own home. The MBox2 can be used with other popular programs as well it doesn’t just have to be pro tools. I have us...
Here's what it comes down to. The 11 rack is a well thought out unit and from a functional standpoint it really whips most of the competition. Everything was thought out well and it packs in some serious features for the price. But the sound quality is, at the end of the day what really matter. The effects are pretty darn good. I would say ...
