Im totally lost on this topic at least in my understanding of it
People spend all this money on buying DAWS..you know outfitting computers with all this expensive memory, cpus, hard drives etc plus buying nice expensive interfaces
only to have this opinion come out that mixing inside the box is DEGRADING the audio.
Now they have these things out like the Dangerous 2 Bus...which people are buying all over the place and recommending and im just looking at this like WTF??
If the whole point is you need to mix outside the computer because of the summing issue..then why are we even mixing with computers in the first place?? Or messing with them??
I know somebody will say my untrained amateur ears cant tell the difference..im not saying i can because i havent taken a listen to that cd yet that contrasts between analog and digital mixdowns etc...
But my real question is...do any of you buy into this idea?
At least in terms of getting this dangerous 2 bus thing
I know a good deal of people have been analogue for life and they've already leapfrogged over this since they're already in an analogue environment.
Me im not...I would love to own a whole bevy of tape machines and compressors and look upon them like Dr Frankenstein but the truth is I already spent my money on computer based recording.
Now this comes about and its like we've been fooling ourselves at least thats the way people have portrayed it as of late.
But enough talk
Whats the stance on this??
Also theres this whole snafu about differences between programs and their sound quality....i just cant help but laugh because it sounds so absurd and yet you have so many people that are saying its true man oh man it just gives me a weird feeling...almost like this whole ordeal is just an audio psychosis of sorts
Anyways begin the discussion already!
