Re: Recording Programs?

[Josh Carroll <josh@infinivert.com>]

I'm also an old CEP user.  I upgraded to Audition when that came out  
and used it quite happily for a long time.  However, I have a Mac  
now, and while I *can* run Audition via bootcamp, that seems gimpy to  
me, so I broke down and bought ProTools LE with the MBox2 Mini.  I  
like it so far, and since I rarely do any sizable multitrack jobs, 2- 
ins / outs works well for me.  And it was only $250 USD.  Not bad for  
software + hardware.
