Re: Mbox2, DAW... seriously. Seeking the knowledge and
guidance of those “wiser (and patient) ones”.
Primarily, interested in connection with a Mac mini...
¡Ay Chihuahua! Hoi polloi!
While all this talk of monitors and multiple displays could be considered quite titillating,
perhaps nothing whatsoever to do with
basic introductory forays into DAW exploration…
especially (ex-specially) with the Mac Mini?
Monitors??? See:

everyone. Basic approach was to just barely place a solitary big toe into the
DAW waters with the primary intention of transferring R2R recordings to digital, with
maybe a few basic enhancement(s) and some filtering. Given the performance of
Firewire (compared to USB 1.0) Reasoned that instead of the Mbox with the Mac
mini, that maybe the Mbox 2 with Firewire might be somehow a more advantageous
POE. Extrapolate that line of reason a little… and a reasonably priced Digi 002R
(FIREWIRE) reared its’ head and I purchased it. Oh… woe is me, indeed.
Now my tiny mind runneth over with PT5LE 7.4 downloads, learning curves and
Mac OS X Tiger system requirements and the 02R has yet to even arrive.
PT disdain? Already?
And all this time, I’ve had a simple little Behringer USB interface - UFO202
here that I’ve never attempted to use (thinking that it was OS X only). Now
I do wonder if ye olde Instant DAW would function well with that… in this
theoretical “big wet toe" basic DAW Mac mini scenario?
In the meantime, anyone need or want a Digi 002R… inexpensive?
Ah hell, it may eventually get tethered to an MDD running 10.4.6.
(And just to be
sexy, I’ll run four freakin’ monitors!)
Grrrrrr.
