No interface. I'm running HD with the Apogee AD & DA 16x's. They will be staying with the Nuendo System.
It's a bargain price. Shouldn't last long. If no TR's want it I'll be starting the Ebay auction at $6,000. New retail is $14,515.

Re: FS PT8 HD2
Why did you leave the HD system and go Nuendo? Is there much difference between both systems from your experience?
Old school of thought...

Re: FS PT8 HD2
Hi John,
I've been running Nuendo since v2. I recently purchased the HD2 because i needed to send and received files from US and they were running PT. I never really like the editing in PT but assume that's because I'm so used to Nuendo.
Also, as I'm running an i7 core PC with Win7 64 bit PT 8 hates it. It never really ran as stable as I'd hoped. I started considering buying a mac but after a really smooth Nuendo session on the weekend I am just going to roll back and do it all in that. If I need file transfers I'll buy a small PT lite rig.
Cheers

Re: FS PT8 HD2
I bought LE/Mbox with DV Toolkit for PT file and project transfers and for checking OMF and AAF files. I'm a Logic user but recognise the need to send files to PT. I only spent $1,200 bucks on it though!
PT8 with DV toolkit gives you 128 tracks I think, but I still prefer Logic.

Is it the ExpressBox4? http://www.magma.com/expressbox4.asp
I'm assuming they work fine in the 8 core Mac's?
Shame I'm having such a broke month.
Swap for a BeesNeez Phelicity????
Hi Angus, Yep that's the one. Not sure about the 8 core Macs but I recon it'd be fine. It's a sweet box.
No swaps sorry.
