I'll tell ya - some studios put up with lots - some waste a million dollars on a euphonix console that can't sync - but mainly, what I see is studios go ahead and spend 50 grand on a protools rig with hardware so badass that they know it'll be stable - also i've seen fairlight systems in places and maybe some cubase - but if it ain't stable, it don't get used, basically. and i mean stable as a mufucka. we all kind of got burned out by the ADAT situation and now nobody wants to mess around - that's what it looks like from my point of view anyway i always bring this up when i can cuz linux has a lot of work to do to get really acceptable in that regard
