Pro Tools 9

How well does the VST to RTAS wrapper work with the free amp sims from LePou, Nick Crow, onqel etc.?

Wondering whether I can do pre-production straight into PT (dream come true in terms of saving time!).

Interested to know this too. Also if LePou's IR loader works well, or is there a good, free RTAS impulse loader?

Ah shit, good point, I'd need to wrap SIR2 as well :s

Might just install PODFarm and be done with it.

Sir 2 is terrible in the wrapper, you will pull your hair out.

 

[Ermz]

PODFarm it is! Thank you.

Yeah or just use Eleven Free, sounds good enough for prepro easily.

It wraps, and you can get the gui up. Forget about tweaking it though. I got so pissed I just snagged IR1A even though Sir 2 is a better plug. Anything else I have wrapped has been fine though.

Luckily I still have my Revalver MKIII licence, so that'd be me covered.

Anyone know of anywhere offering similar package deals in the EU?

All you need to do is find anyone selling a discounted LE interface, you can then just crossgrade through Avid for $249. It's not really a Sweetwater special bundle or anything, just something they noticed and decided to advertise haha...

what's next?

a collaboration between AVID and Stienberg to create a format which works on both Cubase and Pro Tools?

that will be awesome....

Here's the official Avid PT9 FAQ: http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=285388&cmpid=AV-SM-PT9-1

I added it to the original post, too.

Thanks for the FAQ. I think all this upgrading stuff is strange, nevertheless.
PT9 Crossgrade from LE: $249
PT9 Crossgrade from M: $349
Complete Production Toolkit2 Crossgrade from DV Toolkit -> $299
Complete Production Toolkit2 Crossgrade from CPToolkit 1 -> free

So this means if you buy: ((hardware prices are european))
PT9 alone you'll pay 430€
Mbox2Mini and the Upgrade to PT9 -> 448 €
Mbox2Micro and Crossgrade to PT9 -> 409€
Hell even Mbox3 + Crossgrade PT9 -> 509€

PT9 alone + CompleteProduction Toolkit 2 -> 1860 €
Mbox2Mini + DV Toolkit + DV Crossgrade to CPT2 + Crossgrade PT9 = 1761 €

(Downloadversions from sweetwater for PT9/Crossgrade and CPT2 Crossgrade for the Europeans, otherwise you pay a lot more)
The shitty thing is, I want the new iLok and i basically don't need a second, portable interface. Especially no crappy Mbox2.
The cheapest PT9 software only but as a hardcopy and the iLok is 570€ without shipping. Shit.

Cheers Adam. I think I'll hold off until the new year to see what new hardware bundles Avid or M-Audio will introduce.

Well after a full reinstall of win 7 64-bit i managed to get PT9 to work!! whoop. However, i get frequent BSOD's appearing, now this could be due to a memory issue i rekon. As im still on a Core2Duo OC'd to 2.93 (from 2.13) with 4 gig ram, with overclocked timings, and i think thats where i need to read up on more as theres some settings as i havent touched.

Just got an e-mail from AirUsersBlog, they have a limtied special deal, selling PT9 download only at $199. I'd grab it myself, but I'm broke at the moment. FUCK.

Here's the link, hope someone else can profit from this deal: http://airusersblog.us1.list-manage...46af2c4c785475a28b&id=53497eeef9&e=5b07d5bd5f
