I board buy Mbox2 I wanted protools, protools I board had ...
the three dots to the galley was to install! but
FAUS it goes! I think a user on average two
was entitled to its share of crashes in series, error, and company.
Has cooled enough to start, if not frustrating,
after all with all the crap around protools! and all pro
the tralalala, the solution in audio, etc ... outright
we said we would do better now to buy samplitude!!

Briefly, the first day, in contact with protools, it often enrages!
then after you understand a little tour of the site to upgrade
the software required, we move from the basic version to 7.machin is
checks the USB port which is connected Ms. Mbox2 (and yes it
FAUS to be careful, Ms. requires a dedicated port in its own right!
Computer users warned understand a little warning), it also checks a lot of little things that are
explained in the manual (in French am the way, in pdf format) and there! its Tournai (BE says so ...)

short, easily installed plug, we forget the VST, which
is a shame, but after all ... all air stable,
therefore see the use!

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

I board up a bike for the occasion, has as its What was planned things so I well done! CoreDuo cpu 3ghz, 4GB RAM, 500MB hard drive, and all tralalala, two nice flat screen 22 "for visual comfort (have room on the display is very important when you have spent hours to sharpen a soft like this!)

Finally I put my eyes on the interface of ProTools, I run a
plug (kontatk3, EZDrummer) I plug my guitar on my ToneLab LE and
mix on my desk ... and finally the Mbox2, I plug the bass, my microphone static short, I switched on the studio! monitoring the output of Mbox2 ok, everything seems ready! we take off!

I send a drum track with presets Ez, nice keyboard
kontakt sheet with three chords that I play in a loop, the first step done! I created a stereo audio track and I configure the inputs IN1 and IN2 to use what comes out of my desk mix, rec j'enclenche then I go into a little groove on bass, same for the guitar, then a friend has played the voice of improv a third runway, I want to set up a fourth in which I add small guitar solo ... Briefly, after the frenzy registration go to mix! then the balance on the plug, it compresses, the EQ, reverb on, it automates levels, one chorus, the flanger, the limit is cut, the glue is off, on ... Briefly, the mix work and honestly we have fun! we add an instance of a solo instrument kontakt history to discover the MIDI editing and ... have fun a little less!! MIDI has never been the strong point in protools, I had heard, I read it everywhere, in short, was no surprise that I am a chouilla disappointed but overall it could be worse, luckily there Findus, my keyboard, it will not edit, we'll play live and edited behind, will be more lively and spontaneous! with my qualitées recognized as a pianist I board successfully aligned three notes of saxophone and worse voilou ... we touch a little, we shall deliver up its fleet because its a little but do it anyway! short, MIDI Editor sufficient to edit a live recording but not to edit GG pretty complex sentences directly in the sequencer, or to my 9, to say that symbolic
I am disappointed but after all was to learn gymnastics

What else, I board already doing a fine novel! place further notice

OVERALL OPINION

I would say that time spent helping the rage of the installation only a few few little crashes disrupt the whole, was otherwise stable, just not bad swing track, more than enough in a home studio, the Sound is really good, the protools (and its companion the Mbox2 in my case) is not a scam small budget, if you want to start using equipment that holds water and then turns pro digidesing signs a interresting offers accessible

not everyone can afford ProTools HD and digidesing understood it and even if this app is not as powerful and flexible than its big brother HD remains a good investment for which the means learn to use it ^ ^
