well i'm thinking about getting the apogee duet. right now i have the cheapest thing possible to get me into protools, the fast track pro. i just have it to learn pro tools. but i'm trying to bypass this p.o.s. so i can access protools and use another interface. could i go spdif out of the duet into the fast track? would that bypass the shitty fast track circuitry?
can you recommend some other interfaces that sound good? what about the presonus firepod? but then wouldn't i need a pro-tools compatible interface with the same number of channels? cuz if i go 8 from the firepod into 2 of the fast track, i won't get individual tracks in pro tools, will i? unless i fork over a few grand for a digi interface. ugh.
i'm considering just tracking in logic and mixing in pro tools. i'm really pissed off at how limiting pro tools is. they're really shooting themselves in the foot. especially with the delay compensation. logic pro has it, but pro tools LE does not. every fucking plugin adds more phasing problems!! and there's no way i can fork over 10 grand to get an HD rig. i'm thinking about just switching to logic entirely. then i can use ANY interface, i can mix in surround sound, i can have delay compensation, among other things...
...but i already memorized all the pro tools shortcuts. and i really do like the smart tool...ugh.
