I’ve been looking at the new Avid products lately. I might be looking to get back into Protools. Looking at all the HDX options/Converters. It seems the new Core Cards are very powerful and you can do pretty much anything just with a core card now. Anyone using the MTRX or the new DAD converters? What are your thoughts? I am tired of screwing with buffer settings and having to deal with latency. I have a lot of outboard and I think it’s time to look into a solid solution. I’ve always told myself I would never go back to Digidesign/Avid, but with all the projects I’ve been doing lately, I just can’t deal with a native system anymore. I hope I don’t lose a lot of my core plugins I like going AAX. I don’t use many plugins, but there are a few that I use on every mix. I got rid of my UAD Interface and now I’m just looking at a bunch of options. Protools HDX with Aurora N/MTRX/DAD. The desktop thunderbolt chassis, and the DAD box looks killer!

I use the AX32 as a monitor controller and router. But Avid Interfaces as the main IO. But it's a killer box if you can afford it. The converters are stellar and clean if you plan on using thing plus can get mic pre. Dante enabled too and lots of AES all built in.

I have a lot of research to do because there looks to be a lot of pieces to this system. Has anyone heard the new DAD conversion for Protools HDX? That MTRX box looks pretty sweet, just curious as the Aurora N or the MTRX with the DAD conversion are very close in quality. I know DAD was very top quality conversion, but never used it.

Haven't used the Aurora N so no comment there. The DAD is very very good though. Im my world(classical) the DAD, Grace, and Merging are often the top three choices for converters/mic preamps. Few other close one but I wouldn't ever 2nd guess the DAD's converters and they really would never get in the way. Very clean. |

I watched a you tube video on it with a guy from Dynaudio. I’ve been watching you tube videos trying to get more information on the AX32. The MTRX has the DAD conversion as well, but looks a lot more limited in the I/O |

Just black with an avid logo haha But yeah it's super powerful. So many options for routing and for I/O. It's pricey but it's a worthy investment. Can do so much with it. |
