Yep, that is right we have gone HD. Now we are still on 9 for now, or at least until Avid figures things out from their end. There has been a big uprising on the price of the upgrade and I know they will do the right thing whatever that is I cant say for sure, mainly because I don’t have all the facts.
What HD can offer you if you record at TMJ.
#1 VCA mixing is the thing I am most pumped about. VCAs are something I use every week mixing live and I have been using them for years before on other boards and have longed for it to be in Pro Tools LE. That didn’t happen, but this upgrade for us will make it happen.
#2 Low latency recording and tracking. Now I am going to be honest and say this is something that will happen in the not too distance future, but hasn’t happened yet. This is a major deal. To record with little to know delay in the play back and not have the computer struggling every second will save you TIME and MONEY!! Again, I dont have this yet, but it will be here soon.
#3 More tracks! Now i have access to 96 tracks.
#4 higher sample rate. I have been recording in 48K since the beginning and now I will move to 96K for most project from now on. This will increase the overall warmth of the sound of the recording.
#5 DSP on the card! This again will help with the CPU use and make the computer more responsive.
I am looking forward to this move. I am at the beginning of the process but the software is in the building and the rest is coming soon. I am also looking forward to working on your next project. Email me -TMJRecordings@hotmail.com
