That will give you 16 simultanious inputs into PTLE. You could also pick up another 003 but thats kind of rediculous if you ask me. You could also switch to another DAW but its all about what your comfortable working on. I prefer cubase for just about everything.
Routing as i just said will give you what your looking for, 16 simultanious for tracking and 16 back for mixing. Hope that helps. |
Thanks again for the reply. Hmmmmmm yes, I guess this is the only real way of routing it to the 003. As much as I dislike protools/digidesign, it is really the only interface I've ever used and as you say am pretty comfortable with it.
I really thought that as long as I was using the digi hardware I would be able to use the '3rd party' zed to interface with it.
The workaround is tempting but kind of makes the features of the zed pretty much redundant. No midi, no 16 channells, auxs only on 8channels etc etc.
Hmmmmmm, dilema time again. May think about switching to logic/cubase/ableton and maybe just use PT at the final stage. Or was originally looking at the zed 420 before the r16...... has anyone used the 420, are the pre's much different?
Smooth dj, thanks again! Really appreciate your help and advice.
