However, I have no idea why you would track through plug-ins. Mix with them yes, but track through them? That's just restricting your options. Remember the mantra "record to tape as clean as possible"?
We released a new beta of V3 yesterday, and I am running this at the LIMS show in London this week come down and say "hi" if you're not hampered by the Tube strike... |
Ah finally, latency details. "Tracking" with plugs. Song is almost done vocalist comes back in to overdub some vocals. Using plugs all over the place, along with compression/eq on vocal tracks and want the same settings to do some overdubs.
All of a sudden I'd have to change everything on those tracks Duende is on so we can do the overdubs? Meaning, bypass it and run another native compressor/EQ with similar settings? Seems awful goofy since I never do that with native plugs. I am not sure why it's hard for anyone to understand what and why I would be tracking a vocal with some additional compression from a plug in. We are allowed to use hardware compression only while tracking???
I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT ALTERING THE ORIGINAL SOUND "TO TAPE", I'm talking about say inserting a Duende plug (like compression) on a lead vocal.
You mean to tell me know one here is inserting plugs when tracking things? I am not sure how to more clearly spell out what I'm hoping Duende might be capable of. My English may be sucking more than I thought.
I am creating things as I go along in a song and doing whatever I feel is best. Maybe it could be squashing the crap out of the vocal with a piece of hardware... maybe it's just a touch of hardware compression while tracking and I don't want to commit anymore so I'll do some additional with a snazzy Duende comp. That doesn't seem to kooky to me.
So, final word, Duende can't do what I'm describing in a DAW like Logic 8 for instance, is that correct? If it can't, it can't but I was sure hoping it would. It also would mean SSL still hasn't gotten any of my money which they surely would have by now.
