    The oxygen will work fine with pro tools, just update your software. You do know that the same company that makes Pro tools also makes that keyboard right. Also you DO NOT need an ilok for Pro tools to work, but you will need it for other plugins. Now AFAIK Pro tools 9 WILL require an ilok.

    ?? You disable the onboard card and use your USB interface. You can drop another video card in for $50 if you like, but this is a MUSIC machine. Few people EVER EVER EVER use there expansion slots anymore. And firewire is all but dead. NEXT Well I have two responses for this #1 a computer...

    That has not been true for 5 years. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883155017 $370 drop another hard drive in and this is more than enough for music production. Also motherboard form factors change, so often times you need to buy a new case as well. Also when you get a...

    For sure, but I believe any CPU upgrade would mean a board replacement. But honestly I don't see any reason to try and upgrade or build your own PC these days. Its so cheap to go get a dell and they work great. In three years buy a new one. at $300 that ends up being under $10 a month for a...

    not to change the subject but overpopulation is a myth! It is easily disproved. But I agree on the rest of what you said!

    Or an Emcee that is loud, or a kick drum. Hmm or a bass guitar cab. All things I would choose a dynamic for over a condenser.

    Thats phantom power. :) and spec wise there are dynamics that can blow away condensers. Specifically the SPL spec, dynamics will win that one every time ha ha

    The bus speed of his old ram will not match a new i5 or i7 board. 95% chance he will need new ram even if the pin-out matches.

    I totally disagree here, in fact all the vocals for Thriller where recorded with SM7 (NOT SM57) mic. Dynamic and Condenser mics are different for different purposes. I almost always use a nice dynamic mic for really aggressive vocals, and usually a condenser for the pretty type vocals. I say get...

    @lion-ucs I cant say I disagree, but when you go USB on the mic you are forced to use two interfaces. One for input one for output. This will cause extra setup hassle and latency. Its just not worth it.

    Need Help (new into music scene)

    But you said you are getting an Mbox, Your first mic should be an SM57, you will use that forever. Once you get a better handle on things then you can upgrade. As far as your track, there are so many effects on your voice its hard to tell. But a better mic would help for sure. Now the ART...

    Need Help (new into music scene)

    Just don't get a USB mic, if you have an Mbox use that as your interface and plug a mic in to the mbox. When you use a USB mic that becomes and audio interface as well, and lots of programs don't work well with multiple interfaces. Honestly if I was buying my first mic it would be an SM57 hands...

    DONT BUY THE SAMSON MIC! Get a regular mic NOT a usb mic. A USB mic will cause fits with pro tools!

    When It Comes To Digging...

    Well kinda, the big problem is that you really could not build a following on your own. And even if the record flopped the label still owned you and I mean OWNED you even if the band breaks up, the members are still owned by the label. It was crazy back then. Shady stuff for sure! But now you...
