No apology necessary and you did not hijack anything. I encourage and appreciate diverse perspectives. They often shed new light on the discussion.
That does not mean however I am not going to discus how those perspectives may objectively reflect into the discussion .
And on the contrary you were quite clear about Luna.
I was the one not being clear , I should have said
Even though I don't use UAD, I do understand the basics of how Luna works in the UAD environment and how Console works in slaving to other DAW's . For years I used Reason slaved to Pro Tools via Rewire, which like UAD Console, is a protocol for running one audio software within a different DAW. Which is also a two software layer situation, and what Jim was talking about .
My point was and is , when you "are" going to be using another DAW ,, I was simply observing that I can perceive no advantage of less, complexity or abstraction, in tracking to Luna and then mixing in Pro Tools as per your suggestion , over simply using Console and tracking directly to Pro tools . Either way you are still involving two layers of audio software , where as in Carbon you are using only one layer being Pro Tools (which seems to be Jims original point)
