-sean ========================= Digidesign Digi 001 Basics Getting your Digidesign Digi 001 system up and running involves a quick, simple, six-step process. First, you install your Digi 001 PCI card in your computer. Second, you load your Pro Tools LE software onto your computer. Third, you connect your Digi 001 I/O box to your PCI card with a simple, single cable. Fourth, you power up Digi 001. Fifth, you connect your signal sources - mics, instrument cables, patch cords, etc. - to the front and/or back of your Digi 001 I/O box. Lastly, you launch Pro Tools LE software. At that point, you're ready to rumble. Your audio and MIDI information travel back and forth between your computer and Digi 001 via the PCI card I/O box connection. It's that simple. Digi 001 Hardware Features Overview Complementing the intuitive, comprehensive software components of Digi 001 is a unique and innovative hardware configuration that provides access to inputs and outputs, visual indicators, and tactile controls. Once you've routed your audio and MIDI signals via Digi 001's I/O and created a session to build and manage your project, you are in an ideal position to create from beginning to end in a fully self-contained environment. Together, Digi 001's hardware and software interact seamlessly, offering you all the power and flexibility of a Pro Tools workstation in a results-oriented mini studio. Features
Audio Digi 001's Pro Tools LE software enables you to record and play back up to 32 tracks of audio at sample rates of up to 48 kHz. As soon as your audio enters Pro Tools, it enjoys a 24-bit signal path until it leaves via your Digi 001 I/O box. Coming or going, the sound involved with your sessions also benefits from your hardware's high-quality signal converters (A/D and D/A) and a pair of custom mic preamps, ensuring the fidelity of your signals. Of course, Pro Tools enables you to determine the quality of your audio as needs demand — you can always determine the bit rate and sample resolution of a given session in advance. But, it's always nice to know that you have the option of high-end sound at your disposal. Mixing With Digi 001, we've made mixing extremely easy on your eyes and ears. The Pro Tools LE software interface allows you to tweak every component of your mix whenever you choose. As your computer's processor transparently crunches mixing data, you guide the mixing process via the intuitive Pro Tools user interface. Digi 001 and Pro Tools LE software present you with a variety of methods to control and automate your mix, all within a non-destructive, recovery-friendly environment geared toward rapid, superior results. Pro Tools LE features better mixing automation than some of the best stand-alone mixing consoles available. MIDI Similar to its audio features and capabilities, Pro Tools LE's integrated MIDI environment gives you full control over the MIDI components of your projects. MIDI events and sequences can be manipulated as easily as audio, eliminating the need to learn yet another operational paradigm. Pro Tools LE software supports the import, creation, and export of MIDI data as well as multiple MIDI device protocols. Regardless of the amount of MIDI you involve in your projects, you'll be surprised by Pro Tools LE's friendly, comprehensive, integrated MIDI environment. Editing Pro Tools' editing capabilities are such that they have become the standard by which all competitors' efforts are judged. This phenomenon has everything to do with two factors: ease of use and magnitude of scope. Just as with Pro Tools TDM software, a single screen within the Pro Tools LE interface — the Edit Window — enables you to adjust literally every aspect of both audio and MIDI data at sample level resolution. Trim waveforms, reprocess regions of audio, pitch-correct a compromised performance, replace drum sounds, rearrange song sections on a whim — Pro Tools' non-linear approach to editing enables you to act instantly on your decisions without having to commit to them. And with tools like Antare's Auto-Tune available for the Pro Tools application, there's always a tool available to fix what is — or isn't — broken. Plug-Ins Plug-ins, add-on software-based tools that work in conjunction with Pro Tools, are paramount to the effectiveness of the platform. Plug-ins facilitate and embody everything from dynamics to effects to sound design, often improving upon the hardware counterparts and equivalents that many emulate. To use plug-ins, you simply instantiate (or activate) them within the Pro Tools interface. At that point, you are free to employ presets, customize settings, and/or automate a given plug-in's activity within a mix. Unlike outboard gear, you can use your plug-ins on multiple tracks, with multiple settings. Pro Tools LE-compatible plug-ins take two forms: RTAS and AudioSuite. RTAS (Real-Time AudioSuite) plug-ins afford you all the benefits of real-time processing and can be assigned to multiple tracks as frequently as you like within the limits of your system. AudioSuite plug-ins are non-real-time, and once applied to your audio, result in the generation of a new audio file with the processing intact. Of course, you also have the option of saving your original file. There are practical benefits to the use of both types of plug-ins; for more information, visit the All Products index. Mastering In addition to providing an ideal recording, editing, and mixing environment, Digi 001 also affords you the opportunity to add the finishing touches to your projects through mastering. Editing capabilities and plug-ins used in conjunction with the Pro Tools software interface enable you to make the necessary fine adjustments to your final mix to achieve the perfect combination of warmth, presence, and balance. Alternatively, Digidesign's MasterList CD, a software application specifically designed for mastering tasks, can be used to master a single piece or a collection of work with professional results.
