First, SF does not compete with Pro Tools.
David,
I couldn't agree with you more! Folks, you gotta understand something.
This is by the way coming from someone who uses ProTools every single day
Sunday through Sunday of every single week of my life as a living. You all
need to realize that it's kind of like comparing a Mustang to a
Corvette/lamborghini. Soundforge is more for audio restoration, or
editting/remasterring. ProTools on the other hand just to give you a very!
brief idea what it can do, and mind you this is not even! the outer core!
let alone! everything.
1. Multitrack audio/midi
2. Edit Midi once inputted (not accessible)
3. Add processing to audio such as effects, E Q, dynamics, etc.
3. Elastic Audio functionality/stretch.
4. Editting
5. Comping
6. Multiple playlists per track for various takes
7. Printing and transcribing musical scores
8. Editting musical scores
9. Remasterring and audio restoration
10. Ability to use practically any audio interface and control surface on
the plannet
11. Quantizing not just midi, but audio as well.
12. Creating click tracks and syncronising audio to the correct tempo
12. Setting constant tempo/regulating tempo for things such as retards,
etc.
13. Working with send and receive buses
14. Up to 128 different buses in just! the standard version, forget! about
the HD version. It's insane!
15. In PT standard, up to 164 tracks mono or stereo per session
16. Up to 10 inserts per track, and 10 sends per track.
17. Video playback/mixing
18. Loop playback and recording
19. A built in audio sampler
20. Punch in/out recording
21. Distructive and! non! distructive recording both for midi, and for
audio.
22. Unlimited place markers per session
23. Region splitting/joining
24. Panning both left and right channel independently, or both channels of
a mono track together.
25. Creating master fader tracks
26. Converting mono tracks to stereo and vice versa
27. Setting key signature and time signature, say example: Key of C# 6/8
time vs. key of F# 4/4 time.
28. Ability to set the scale: major, minor etc.
29. Ability to set the mode: IE: contequian vs. pethagorian
30. Nudging tracks as little as a 10th of a tick at a time forward or back
in the time ruler.
And that's just a really! small example, believe it or not.
Believe me! If I wrote everything you could do, trust me! You'd probably
be here for hours just reading and soaking it all in.
Chris.
