Just wondered if anyone here has used RADAR before? We've got it in all of the tracking studios here at LIPA and when I first started using it I pretty much hated it. When you're so used to using a DAW for tracking and editing, going to something like RADAR is a massive headache.
Anyway I had to eat my words when we A/B'd the same mix in PT HD. The quality of the converters in RADAR is absolutely unbelievable. The mix we demo'd sounded cleaner and clearer, while the same thing in PT sounded cloudier and a little dull in comparison.
Integrating the two systems is pretty simple too. We've been using Pro Tools to set up cue mixes and then tracking into RADAR. You can save everything as BWAVs so importing into PT for mixing is easy and you get the added benefit of RADARs AD conversion.
So I just wondered if there are many RADAR users out there and what your opinions are? It's really surprised me how much difference there is in fidelity, but working totally in RADAR you sacrifice a LOT of the speed of workflow and some of the editing power you get with a DAW.
So this is essentially a pointless ramble, but I'm stunned by it is all!
