That's the downside of it. I can't use some of my beloved BFD kits. The problem is that this weakness is also it's strength. It will mean less bugs, quick workflow (though different) and power. A friend of mine whose a die hard PT user just gaped at the performance of the beta earlier this. We were at a producers conference and he was talking about his projects in Reason and PT (and I was his humble moderator and sidekick). He was using PT 8 Le on a Macbook (Intel Dualcore) and it was really heavy on the computer even with everting on PT and no Reason and Rewire. The demo of record had 60 or 70 tracks audio and some reason. It was not even close to choking. The sound and the power is amazing. But it lacks stuff aswell. My musical projects will have record as its main tool. My other audio projects (my bread and butter) might have a sniff at the channel strip.
Propellerheads arent out to make the DAW till kill all DAWs. Record is a mainly musicians tool for people who doesn't feel at home with the programs around but still want to use a computer. But the props are also very thoroug and just by bieng so they happend to make a channelstrip and a streching algorithm nothing matches in the software world. So for me who always loved to write music in Reason but mainly likes guitarr, voice, drums and synths the choice is easy. But if you love your synths and plugs it's not that obvious. Tell you this though I don't miss my UAD plugs when using record. Installed the first RC yesterday. This is not for everyone, but it is for me.
