I And what about overdubbing once the basic track is cut...? The native system was simply unusable for both of those scenarios.

It can be done.

That particular native system was not usable, but I wouldn't be too hasty to paint all native systems with that brush.

I routinely record/overdub/mix on a totally native system here, Samplitude in my case. I can track through a plug-in without issue, as long as it's fairly low latency. Overdubs with a loaded up native mixer @ 24/96kHz is also no problem.

My system is rock solid with an Apogee AD16X front end, I've invested the time to make it a totally stable system.

Understood, and "Well done you."

With respect.

If I'm not mistaken [hopefully Sean or Adam can pop on and confirm or refute this] there is a function in Logic that permits you to "monitor input" [just like on a tape machine] when you're doing overdubs.

It might just be with Apogee converters [which is what is used at The Meth Lab] but if I'm not mistaken it is a part of the Logic software.

I'll pop Adam / Sean an email so they can confirm [or refute] this impression.

You can do this in Logic regardless of interface. You can also set up nifty splits in the older versions of Logic and do something similar with pretty latency free results (audio interface permitting).

There's also a record mode where it kills plug's temporarily if they are the culprits.
