hmmm...that is really wierd....

i'd like to see the same comparison with something even cheaper , such as ntrack...?
 
Makes sense to me. All software DSP is handled by algorythms programmed by the different companies. Some may be more efficient with processor usage or less prone to rounding errors. Luckily I already use Logic ;)

According to Skippy you can avoid these problems by never mixing more than 6 tracks together on a software buss. You should bounce them over to a stereo submix and continue with the rest of your tracks.

That is also why many people still prefer to send all the tracks out of the computer on their own outputs and use a mixer for the mixdown. A good mixer just makes mixes sound better IMHO and it relieves the computer from having to sum all those tracks.
 
This kinda reminds me of the whole cheap plugin and behringer mixer arguements. Sure you can get decent sounds of a lot of equipment.

The first drum track sounded pretty good until you heard the second one with just enough more 'oomph' to really make it stand out. That is the same thing with different plugins, mixers and any equipment.

If people want to buy a lot of the new cheap digital stuff they need to be aware that all digital is not equal. Different DSP's can sound very different and some things are a little more subtle. But it is the subtle differences that make the difference between good and great.
 
yep, the logic one sounded much better...i'm not taking anything from the sound of logic just the program.. :)
i've done the same thing with Cuabse-nuendo-logic 5-sonar 2-and samplitude
nuendo and logic 5 sound the best, with samplitude right behind them.then cubase vst32 then sonar..sonar's sound was so dull...
all the programs used a 1010 to record. now i'm gonna do the same test with logic 5, cubase Sx, nuendo, and sequoia...
 
By the way, what's "ur music?" Never heard of it...
 
This rocks my world. I wonder how well Sonar does compared to Logic.

By the way, what's "DP3"? Never heard of it...
 
DP3 is MOTUs Digital Performe 3 which got some great reviews by Electronic Musician, or was it Recording Magazine? I dunno remember mucho......

There was a related article in the latest tapeop.
 
This is getting too much for me to handle. Not only do I have to worry about how good my mics are, but I also need a world-class preamp. Gotta' have those expensive a/d converters, and if that's not bad enough, a $400 word clock to go with it.

Now I have to add the mixing software to my list of "things to worry about."

That's great. Just great.
 
I´m in the phase where I´m about to build my PC from scratch and I am (or was???) thinking of going with Sonar because of some features like groove editing and its ease of use. I once fiddled around with a version of LOgic for an Isis soundcard and I can tell you that program almost made me want to puke because of its unfriendly interface and difficulty in learning and finding stuff that was easy to find on other stuff. I never thought until now that it made a heck of lot difference in sound which program you are using.....this is one of those things that make you go hhhhmmmmmm.......
 
FALSE alarm fellas...go to the thread again...reason for the descrepency is because Logics master fader is a few DBS hotter then Digital Performer 3
 
It is still generally accepted that Logic has the best sound quality for a home DAW.

It is also agreed that it's interface was developed with the same learning curve of a NASA satellite tracking program.
