Текст показался мне любопытным. Ни в коем случае не хочу разжигать священные войны стенка на ст.. то есть хост на хост. Оказывается, миф о звуке секвенсеров жив не только на постсоветском пространстве.
Взято из статьи, посвященной новому альбому Дональда Фагена (Steely Dan) "Morph The Cat". Текст принадлежит Элиоту Шайнеру, звукоинженеру.
Given Scheiner's view that "digital will never catch up with analogue", it's a little surprising to see his studio in Connecticut filled to the brim with digital equipment, including a Yamaha DM2000 desk and MSP1 monitors, Alesis HD24, and Steinberg's Nuendo DAW. The producer/engineer states that he went for digital equipment because of economical reasons, but given his preferences the recent acquisition of a Studer A827 24-track was pretty much inevitable. He does, however, wax lyrical about one piece of digital equipment.
"I very much enjoy working on Nuendo. It's probably the best digital workstation available. It is the closest to analogue of any digital equipment I've heard. Nuendo sounds much better than Pro Tools, for instance. The two aren't even on the same page. I don't know why it is, I am just trusting my ears. A friend of mine, Frank Filipetti, did a comparison test between Euphonix, Pro Tools and Nuendo. It was all digital, there was no analogue-to-digital conversion, and Pro Tools did not even compare to the other two.
"I work on Pro Tools in commercial recording studios, but that's because I don't have a choice. I owned a Pro Tools system when it first came out and found the company impossible to deal with. They never returned any phone calls, if you had a problem there was no help. I spent more time rebooting the system than anything else. This is not necessarily Digidesign's fault, it was probably a Mac problem, but as a result I stopped using digital for a few years, until I got into the Nuendo system in 1998 or 99. I don't know whether it is Steinberg, or the combination of Nuendo and the PC I run it on, but so far it has never crashed."
