Digidesign Digi 002 Rack - Portable Pro Tools Powerhouse
If you've ever wished for a Pro Tools system based on an Apple PowerBook with – well – a bit more power, GearBox suggests the new Digi 002 Rack. Essentially the existing Digi 002 without the control surface, the new system is capable of handling a wide range of audio production tasks, including multi-input live recording.
As with other Pro Tools LE products, sessions created with Digi 002 Rack are compatible with full-blown Pro Tools|HD TDM configurations, making it the ideal bridge between project studio, location recording and pro studio production.
The Digi 002 Rack interface is a breeze to install, as it communicates with the host computer via a single FireWire cable. Remarkably, this conveys up to 32 steams of digital audio (18 I/O), along with MIDI and Pro Tools control data.
The supplied Pro Tools 6 LE software is OS X compatible. It supports 32 tracks of 24-bit or 16-bit audio, integrated MIDI sequencing, and real-time mixing and processing. This, along with the included DigiRack plug-in bundle, makes Digi 002 Rack a truly complete system. In addition, the system offers native support for a host of Development Partner RTAS plug-ins, which GearBox is also happy to supply.
Digidesign's latest release is unbelievably affordable but the design does not cut corners. For instance, the mic preamps are the very low noise units found in the already established Digi 002. Similarly high quality 24-bit/96kHz converters are built-in as standard.
In short an offer too good to refuse. GearBox invites you to place your Digi 002 Rack orders today.
