Faux Tools?

I do little demo projects on the side, so I'm a bit of a dillettante, but I once ran an 1/2" analog 16 track place for a few years... so I'm not a rank newbie, but man... I've got a "new" problem I keep running into.

See, I prefer tracking with Cool Edit. It's what I've always used, I can set it up essentially instantly and get going immediately.

The problem is - I'm getting people who somehow insist, or infer that Pro Tools, even just tracking with it, is somehow superior to CEP, or anything else for that matter.

Never mind my own experience and results that BROUGHT THEM TO ME IN THE FIRST PLACE - it's like once they see something other than PRO TOOLS on my CRT there's like automatically the results are going to be stifled somehow.


SO, what I'm thinking is.... just a thought....:

Some little app that looks like a PT screen, that will show a level meter and maybe some tracks scrolling across the screen - so I can run CEP underneath and avoid the whole issue. I could load up PT LE or something, but I don't want to waste system resources doing that.


"What's that there....?"

"Pro Tools"

"oh, ok."

You know.....?
