[kudyapinimannlee]

The ultra only allow up to 6 analog input channels, so yes, you can multitrack but note that you have a maximum of 4 mic inputs - 2 of the 6 are line inputs. Maudio states that the Ultra is an 8x8 device but the 2 extra input channels are spdif.

salamat pare ha.... thank you very much.

salamat sa info ha na notice ko na medjo madami vst wala sa essential pero pwede bang bilhin yan later pag may extrang pera kana? at saka pala ano yung vst. sobrang newbie talaga ako e so talagang hasitant akong bumili should i buy the studio o essential. for basic band recording mainly percussion kasi world music yung tugtugan namin e i play tabla djembe at conga. like sa essential wala yung grove agent parang drum sampling na vst. so pwede bang bilhin yan seperately????salamat sa info bro

[KitC]

Yes, pwedeng bilin ang groove agent separately.

May sound interface ka na ba? Kung wala pa, pwedeng kang kumuha ng interface sa steinberg na may kasamang Cubase 5 AI - parang essentials na rin ang AI version.

Compared sa essentials, yung studio version ang mas powerful, pero medyo bitin din sa plugins kung ikukumpara mo sa full version ng Cubase 5.

sound interface po??? iba po ba yung fast track ultra ng m audio??? oo nga e binasa ko nga kaso sobrang mahal ng cubase 5 meron po ba sa pinas mabibilhan dyan baka mas mura nasa japan kasi ako ngayon e. ano po ba yung suggestion nyo po. sobrang newbie po e. salamat po.

Oops! I glossed over the fact na may ultra ka na. my bad.

anyway, pwede ang cubase dyan sa ultra. pwede rin sonar at pro tools. kung audio recording lang ang gagawin mo at hindi midi, try Propellerheads' Record. Pro Tools is also a very good match for the ultra, at compatible pa mga files ng pro tools sa mga studio na may pro tools setups.

thanks pare so ill asume taht you are a pro tools user. sige po check ko po yung pro tools. anong version po yung sa iyo?

thanks pare so ill asume taht you are a pro tools user. sige po check ko po yung pro tools. anong version po yung sa iyo?

We primarily use PT 6.9 in the office although I have dabbled with v.7.4. Hopefully we will be upgrading to PT8 soon.

tiningnan ko yung price ng pro tools 8 m powerd at cubase essential medjo the same price range. does it means mas maganda yung cubase o talagang mahal lng talaga. one thing taht atract me sa cubase 5 is yung variaudio at pitch corect dahil hindi ganon kaganda yung boses ko so pag gagawa ako ng kanta pwede kong madaya. hehehehe pero yung problema wla naman sa essential at sa studio sa cuabse 5 producer talaga at sa pruducer price ay sobrang mahal. meron bang parang ganon sa pro tools? saan ka nga pala nag oofice astig naman nang trabaho mo. hehehehe salamat sa info pare ha im now leaning on buying pro tools since madami pala as pinas yung gumagamit ng pro tools.

Pro tools has the same... they call it elastic audio.

I like cubase. I cut my teeth mixing with Cubase SL2 but I liked Sonar's midi editing better. A lot of people slag Sonar because of it's user interface, but when Cubase was having timing problems with SL2/SX2 and SX3, Sonar's midi timing was spot on.

Pro tools was a different beast when I first encountered it. Purely audio recording and editing, but it did it very well. With PT8, they finally improved midi, although I have yet to personally experience it.

If you don't do midi, I would think Pro Tools is better for you especially with it's compatibility with PT HD systems. It also makes a good audio post platform, although having done both with Cubase and Sonar, the playing field is somewhat level with most aspects of DAW software today.
