So, you're saying that the next step from a VS machine is a MM1200 and an
MCI or Trident? Interesting :-) Ok, I'm teasing a bit.
My reason for suggesting this path is this:
It costs a little more, but not an unreasonable amount more.
You'll be using fully professional equipment that's designed to not
break very often, but which can be serviced when it breaks, and it's
old enough so that it's had all the upgrades it will ever have.
People working in most forms of music production strive to get a
"warm, full, analog sound." There's no better way to get it than with
analog equipment. They may learn that this is not really what's most
important to them, but they'll never know until they try the real
thing.
It can be easily integrated with digital tools where that's
appropriate.
Having a limited number of tracks and (due to media cost) a limited
number of takes changes the way you work, often in a positive manner.
It makes you think about where you're heading rather than always
wondering if you're there yet, or if you should add one more part.
How bout some good
outboard pre/ converters and a computer?
Sure. Anything you can afford.
Add a used d8b and stir well.
If your production life centers around full automation, then this
might not be such a bad choice, but there are a lot of trade-offs (in
both directions).
