  1. Well done. And its done! Its in the can. Don't obsess, move on.
    Evidently Chas Chandler liked to remind Hendrix that Mickie Most produced House of the Rising Sun for 10 bob.
    How long would Jimi sit in front of Pro Tools if he were still alive?
    How long do I (or vous) sit in front of CbB, obsessing over half dB cuts or boosts?

    Just my nickel98's worth...

  2. I have a pair in the office, I love em!
    These are "open backed", but I do no tracking in the office.
    If you're looking for some isolation try the 770, Sweetwater calls them "mixing" headphones; not so much.

  3. Maybe Jim will give us/me a definitive answer here; 

    Are SSD drives the way to go for the project/audio drive? I thought there was an issue with multiple read/write cycles with SSD drives. 

    As to the OS on the M.2:

    why waste valuable sample space with the OS?

    I upgraded my old Cat to ssd on the OS several years ago, cloned the existing drive, other than the time it takes Sonar to scan the vst’s, I really didn’t see a “blinding” increase in speed.

    Jim said I wouldn’t, maybe his optimizations, and keeping things “lean”?

    As to size; go 500 if you feel you need it, I’m on my phone so I can’t quiz my Cats as to actual use on my OS drives. I know my 9 year old “office” rig is 250, and it’s not “full” by any means. 

    Best of luck with your build.

  4. Andy,

    listen to Jim. 

    250 SSD for your OS. Keep it “lean”. 

    1gb M.2 for samples. 

    Edit: 1 tb, I’m on my phone, pita!

    Conventional 7200 hd for projects.

    at least one more hd for data, backups etc.

    I’m not a composer who does “huge” orchestral mockups. 

    But I can tell you that the M.2 loads Superior Drummer Trilian Kontact “right now”. 

    Best money I spent last year!

    You can thank me later,
