I wouldn't be too sure about that...
on second thoughts your'e right, it was badly worded, there's some excellent software mastering tools out there, i was meaning that an analogue desk in a hardware domain is going be better than routing everything back into ableton and using the EQ in there. sorry.Zoiberg wrote:steevio wrote:and if you can only afford a behringer, then its still better than the digital EQ in your software.

I'm still not sure that Behringer EQ is better than Live EQ8.steevio wrote:on second thoughts your'e right, it was badly worded, there's some excellent software mastering tools out there, i was meaning that an analogue desk in a hardware domain is going be better than routing everything back into ableton and using the EQ in there. sorry.
Isn't it protools then that you'd use for this mastering stage. Would it work out better to get a hardware controller and use protools for all equalisation if its eq's are better than say a 800-900 desk which is all id be willing to spend.steevio wrote:on second thoughts your'e right, it was badly worded, there's some excellent software mastering tools out there, i was meaning that an analogue desk in a hardware domain is going be better than routing everything back into ableton and using the EQ in there. sorry.Zoiberg wrote:steevio wrote:and if you can only afford a behringer, then its still better than the digital EQ in your software.

ok let me explain myself better, it's easy to be misunderstood on quickly thrown together posts. in no way would i argue in favour of behringer eq., if you read my post original post again i was saying that i hardly used the eq on the behringer because i didnt like it. what i'm arguing FOR is if you are going to build a hardware studio, its far better to work in the analogue domain altogether and avoid the digital domain especially as far as a mixing desk is concerned. believe me ive tried lots of different set-ups involving total analogue, total digital, and combinations in all sorts of ways, and ive settled on a 95% hardware set-up, and usually only use software for sequencing my hardware, and for final editing if say i make a mistake during a live mix which needs attention, or if the mix needs shortening or something.Zoiberg wrote:I'm still not sure that Behringer EQ is better than Live EQ8.steevio wrote:on second thoughts your'e right, it was badly worded, there's some excellent software mastering tools out there, i was meaning that an analogue desk in a hardware domain is going be better than routing everything back into ableton and using the EQ in there. sorry.
IMO the most important hardware in a studio is a great pair of monitors.
ok mate, read my previous post about hardware desks,credit_agro wrote:
