The other tidbit is just because ONE person says "this is better then XXX, it's easier" etc, that doesn't make it accurate. If you want to buy a car to go to the grocery store, a Smart Car will do the trick, but you can't stop at Lowes and buy a bunch of 2 x 4's on the way home ! what do you want to do with it ? A $29 small recorder from Radio Shack will take care of ideas, shows, or rehearsals.
There really is no right or wrong, or which one is better.the deciding factor is you. My other option that is half way between, is the Auria app on IOS that works plug and play with our 22 channel Soundcrsft desk with has a 22/22 audio interface - it’s the digital equivalent. For recording a band rehearsal or demo, the portability is great. I’d say if you are making a serious recording go DAW but if you want to capture ideas to a high standard like a HiFi musical notepad, the Tascam has a role.
#GARAGEBAND VS BAND IN A BOX FULL#
It feels better to be required to nail the full take rather than punch it fixes - although the DP32 can do punch in if I wanted. So today I have both but most stuff recently has been the DP32 for convenience and the extra buzz and feeling of commitment. It’s also easy to be sloppy with a computer knowing you will quantise or just edit repeats of good bits. I was finding that I was playing with details in the DAW and VST options rather than just making a song and playing the instruments well - analysis paralysis. If you are using lots of digital drums and midi, then it’s certainly not the way today with DAWs much better for that, but for getting real drum and bass down and then tracking guitars and old synths or drum machines, it feels just right. Assign an input to a track/s, hit record, repeat, move sliders, etc. Recording is fun and simple and old school. It does have good compressors and basic effects like reverb although I like to capture everything as unprocessed as possible. The DP32 is all complete and portable, can take 8 mics/lines from a session live with no extra interfaces, wires, etc. The individual WAV tracks drag and drop to computers via USB or SD card.
