I have to admit to >being quite shy yet excited by the idea. This could be a monster (in all >senses of the word). Yes I agree. I had a debate with a friend of mine who thought that you didn't need Rocket at all to have these same features. You could use IRC prog and send files to one or many people thru that. You might even use something like i-drive or similar to keep copies of your stuff online. Of course you need a few programs to do that but it would not cost the same since that means you could also have "private" studios without paying monthly fee. One thig that just occured to me is that you'd still need that Logic-Rocket program since regular Logic can't play mp3 files (is that the format Rocket is using ?) or otherwise even the "testfiles" you'd use would have to be uncompressed audiofiles. Also you really need something more that just modembased netconnection which might be quite expensive in different parts of world (although I don't see this as big problem with professionals as it is for those of us who do this simply for the love of music). Another great thing with this idea is that if you had a logic using friend you might even think about saving money by buying different plug ins and asking a friend to have "Auto Tune" your vocals while offering him the Renessaince compressor on his bass :-) > > You can hire a "private room" for a small fee.
