So Studio works with all daws except logic: wtf ? Workstation mode can run any DAW, excluding Logic. static1.squarespace.com/static/570d497dc2ea51b9b798fed7/t/5f63eaa827c2823bf0e29fd1/1600383656528/RADAR-Studio-brochure.pdfI've thought about radar more than once but I'd need to switch computers, maybe ?, ( I understand that studio has the pc built in), apparently daws, no logic, get the radar system and a controller or use keyboard/mouse to start, seems like a lot of money ? I started the thread as someone locally is selling the base chassis for like $450 cdn, so was curious what the least expensive way of trying radar might be, but after buying a card even used and a decent pc computer, not a cheap demo option. if anyone is interested in the link let me know. You don't need a computer at all with a Radar system. It acts like a multi-channel recorder with many daw-like features. You do need a mixer of some sort for playback It was the reference to pc as I use Mac that through me, thrn I realized the pc is integral to radar:,thx!

Real creativity, has a serendipitous aspect to it: don’t think that can or should be programmed.

There was a recent fb post that they are in build phase. “ Not excited to figure out where to put it, rearrange/rewire/etc.”, Gee, what a problem, send it here: I’ll sort that out for you!

yup, all good, I just thought I could open a session and just walk you through what I did and how, so you'd have a sort of how to get shit done view of using LD rather than as an abstraction.

Thx, I was aware that the Mike can be tweaked, not planning on selling it but like the idea of keeping mike stock.
i knew from my mk-u47 diy build how much different tubes can almost eq the same Mike, so happy to roll a few tubes for the sa67.
The Tong Sol gold is working well. How would you sonically characterize the tube you referenced ?

Very pleased with Tung sol, all my nos tubes are inconsistently: good sometimes but also crackly , noisy: pita, try the gold pin tung sol working fine here. Very apparent difference cardiod vs omni: nice !

I don’t believe I said it was not needed in all cases. i said if you are are not tracking with UA plugs, and only mixing with them , then the native versions are attractive. Don’t need apollo or cards so get better bang for you bucks as you don’t need an interface with dsp or a satellite. So, why buy into the UA dsp works now if you don’t have too? Depends on your workflow. Fair enough. It just sounded like a blanket statement about DSP when you said "The only reason to buy UA dsp now is to run the uad2 plugs which are not native: yet". That sounded pretty absolute to me. Well, that is the only technical reason: uad2 needs dsp , Uadx doesn’t. For me, just mixing with plugs, UA dsp is irrelevant. I understand the latency concern: just not a problem I have, as a singer songwriter. not pretty, but easy enough to turn off all plug ins or bounce a stereo sub mix to a new session, record new tracks and export that back to original, there are workarounds .

Don’t think anybody is saying you can’t use UA dsp. But now the UA has 50 odd good plugs native why buy UA dsp.m I really only use plugs for mixing, use my ob for tracking, so latency is mostly a non-issue. Nice to have options. But others DO use the DSP for tracking. Super low latency matters more to some people. That's why DSP is still around. Some people are also mixing large track count songs, where overdubs could be a problem for their CPU, regardless of how new, fast, or powerful their computer might be. That's where DSP also comes into play. So I would disagree that DSP isn't needed by anyone anymore. Certainly not for some people.

Check out the signature bundle it’s all the native plugs. If you like that bundle, you could sell your UA stuff, get your new interface and buy signature and run native. What a gigantic pain in the ass, though. Hardly, I freed up like $15-1600 usd selling my UA stuff and buying back just the plugs I wanted:,works for me !

? Not really understanding you. Prior to UA going native, there was no choice, you had to use UA dsp to run UA plugs: period. Whether, you tracked with them and needed an apollo was a choice. Now, with uadX and Luna, you don’t need UA dsp, you might choose to run apollo but you don’t have to. The only reason to buy UA dsp now is to run the uad2 plugs which are not native: yet. The only ua plug for me on that list would be ampex, but there are other tape options, studer runs natively or competitors’ plug, won’t be buying UA dsp for one plug, that’s for sure!

The signature bundle is something you buy and do get perpetual license for, it just also happens to currently include 100% of the subscription plug ins 44 in total, I think.
It was recently on sale for 50% off, an excellent value form UA. Only catch, is I believe you cannot sell UADx plug ins.
UA dsp is ok, but if you have a fast computer you just don't need it anymore and ua's card's are clearly on the table now so why buy into its old model.
The only time you don't get a perpetual license from UA is when you use its subscription plan, which regulaly is also discounted, 01 cent for 3 months or 1$ for a year etc..
