    Hi,

    Does anyone know if the Digidesign 002 can be used as a control surface for Final cut. I’d like to pick up a digital mixer/control surface and this is my first choice because I use pro-tools for audio stuff.

    I would be psyched if I could use the 002 in FCP and soundtrack.

    Thanks,

    David

    Well,

    I’m replying to my own post. Just for the record. I did a little research and if anyone is interested i think this might be a cool way to go:

    Digi 002 rack. Gives you 8 inputs and pre-amps and runs pro-tools.

    then you get the Tascam FW-1082 control surface. That will control Pro-tools in the Mackie HUI emuation mode. It will also control Final Cut Pro and Soundtrack and MIdi stuff in Motion.

    Soo… You’d get the phenomenal focusrite pre-amps of Digidesign, Pro-tools functionality, plus Apple Studio functionality.

    Best part is looks like you could bring the package in for around $1500.
    That’s like $500 cheaper than the cheapest advertised 002.

    Of course if the 002 would work with apple studio that would be cool.
    I can’t seem to find any evidence of this. Knowing how jealous Avid/Digidesign are of their precious little softwares I’m guessing that this would mean no.

    Anyone know for sure?

    Dave

    1500$ seems low to me. Where did you get this number, I get 2000$ at zzounds.com. Where do u buy your stuff.

    This is the zzounds link. https://www.zzounds.com/item–TASFW1082

    teh 002 “rack” (not the control surface) is around $600 or $700 on a couple of “buy it now” auctions on Ebay. One even comes with a Bheringer condenser mic.

    Still wondering. Anyone know if the 002 will controll Final Cut Pro?
