Pro-Tools

[Hardrock69]

Yeah. If you must have 16 channels, do your research and find one that can export directly to wav.

It would be nice if there was one you could hook the unit up to your PC by, say, a USB port and back the files up directly to your hard drive on the PC.

One other advantage to a stand-alone unit is the fact that there is zero latency. You record on it, you hear it all in real time with no delay.

With PC-based systems, you are always fighting to get your PC and/or sound card latency down to a reasonable figure. Unless of course you have a real ProTools rig including the hardware, which can = BIG $$$$$

So obviously the thing is to get a way to connect the two, so that you can transfer data between the two efficiently, so you can harness the strengths of both the standalone and the PC.

Just do your research, man, and I have no doubt you will find something that will work.

Damn I love technology!!

For IN-DEPTH info on the Roland VS series, you can find the owner's manuals for the VS-1680, VS-1880, & the VS-2480 here:

Just out of interest, how do you burn stuff off the 1680 into a playable audio format for your home systems, if it doesnt convert to wave ?

[Phil theStalker]

Pro Tools my ass.

Get a $9.95 cassette recorder from Radio Shack and put it on the front table in the club.

Go out and play live in a basement club like the Bealtes and the SeX PisToLS did you lazy fucks.

And just use white lights. No colored lights or lasers or dry ice effects crapola.

Now go out and have a goodtime, it's later than you think you audio fucks. There's no future for you types.

Cock Robin has spokeneth.

VIVA PHIL AND HIS SHIT RECORDINGS !

You can use the VS-1680 to back up your projects, but it does so in a proprietary format that cannot be read by PCs or Macs.

You cannot hook a cable up to a PC and transfer files directly that can be read by a PC. Also, you cannot save your project on a data cd, and put it in you cd-rom drive of your PC, and read it with the PC, because it is not a DOS-based format. IF you use your burner to burn audio tracks, yes the PC will recognize it as audio and will play them. You just cannot transfer data files that the PC will read...

Kinda difficult to explain.

Am I clear as mud yet?

Over at the vsplanet.com forums there have been threads created on this subject for many years....

But as I said, the VS-2480 can export the tracks as individual wave files, and I am not sure if the VS-1880 can or not. And there are other digital hard-disk recorders by other manufacturers that can export as wav files as well.

Just do your reasearch to find out more.
