hi,
I`m really new here and you can help me.
i am searching for a new host on pc.
i`m used to PT HD on mac, but don`t like the windows version. and i want to use a pc.
i don`t use any midi.
i just record, edit and mix. i need a lot of audio tracks, not only 32 like PT le.
I tried samplitude and really liked it, but the workflow in PT is better to me.
so any suggestions what`s the best host for me?
I don`t mind reputation, so it could be free if it works for me.

Try Audition.

I think, regarding audio work, Samplitude would be your best bet, probably with Nuendo following.

Samp and Nuendo.

Wait ... wait ... it's Sequoia if you're serious

Tracktion of course

I'll second the Rabbit (our ProTools connaisseur): try Adobe Audition. Done a few audio-only (no midi) projects in its predecessor CoolEditPro and its a breeze to work with.

Edit: and a warm welcome to KVR!!

PT HD on mac, but don`t like the windows version

Once you have open Pro Tools HD what's so different between Mac and Windows ???

Is there any intentional significance to the spelling of "alter-naives" in the thread title?

@dramsenic: it was just very unstable when testing.
audition looks quite good...
i found ntrack on the net and it seems to have nearly all features i need, any opinions to that?
or more advises?

I never had any good luck with nTrack, but have not tried it in a while. It might be more stable these days. Honestly, if you don't like or don't want to spend the money for Audition, I would give Tracktion a hard look. I've been using Tracktion and Audition together for a while now and it turned out to be a great combo. I recently decided to purchase Samplitude 8 and that's the only reason I'm not using Tracktion anymore. I still recommend it highly for most things.

Hmm, my ProTools is stable on both platforms. Of course, I could be using different features than you in different ways.

I'm still a Tracktion guy, but PT is there when I need it.

What? no CUBASE SX? Same as Nuendo, $400 less, minus a couple of Surround features. It can do anything PT can, I believe (the hardware would be the biggest difference).
