ProTools is entrenched in studios, but that's actually a small niche market, and getting smaller - way smaller than all the musicians out there who could potentially make their own world class recordings at home. |
OK, very good point Macaroni, this is what I've been saying all along. Also goes along perfectly with what the Apple rep said at NAMM. Maybe Apple has decided to leave the shrinking studio market to their partner Digi, and take over the musician market. I've said it like four times on this thread, but that would be a VERY good move if that's what they're doing.
You guys need to realize I'm a big Apple fan and enjoy watching their strategies. The Emagic purchase really intrigued me, so I've been watching ever since. The big question is, did they really want to take over the pro market, or did they mainly want the Logic engine for Garageband? Obviously the emphasis has been on Garageband for the past five years, but maybe that will change now? Only time will tell. Bring on Logic 8
