And typically, I'd say buy as good of gear as your wallet will allow, but in these situations, audio recording, I'd say buy along the curve of your needs, and upgrade only when your needs ask you to, because this stuff gets expensive and the differences, just like everything else on planet earth, get extremely small the more expensive you go, sonic-ally speaking, and you really need to train your ear to hear these differences.

Tools are useless if you don't know how to use them, as I'm sure you're well aware. The learning curve is huge for this kind of stuff and jumping from Garageband to UAD stuff and Logic/Protools is like going from a Gorilla to a Road King, so many knobs to turn and things to manipulate it will get busy fast. I would start with reaper and a Focusrite to be frank. The "zero" latency monitoring and some UA plugins have got me interested for sure.īut since I have no real prior experience in a DAW (mucking around GarageBand doesn't count) the question is: would it actually be easier for me to jump completely into the world of UA than to straddle Console + Logic + 3rd party plugins? Or should I not even step into the world of UA until I know what I'm doing? I don't mind investing money, but don't like wasting it - either spending too much the first time, or buying twice because I didn't start with the right tool. Obviously, $900 for an interface is a lot to spend in general when you're just starting out, and even more-so for a UA product if you're not going to use the DSP of the interface. SPDIF in from my Torpedo Live, and 1 stereo send/return if I want to bring in my hardware Lexicon or Eventide. The Universal Audio interfaces are the right type of desktop format I like (aka Mackie Big Knob style), and the Apollo Twin X (Duo) is what I'm leaning towards. But I need to pick an interface and recording software.

The rule is below as it now reads and will be enforced. However, we are coming into a new era with people doing different manners of monetary transactions.Įssentially, we'll no longer require anyone to be tied to Paypal only people can now use whatever payment they want, but we want to let people know they are on their own. In the past, we had required people to use Paypal to head off attempted fraud, which has been a concern for many years. Please note that effective immediately we have updated the Emporium Rules for payment options.
