I'd like to know what is more important to work with audio samples (and some MIDI). I have a 1.25 G4 iMac with 512Megs of RAM. Right now, i have some problems when working with multiple tracks and fx. Sometimes the computer freezes, and i don't know what to do. Should i buy more RAM (i think 1Gig is the maximum for my machine) or should i save some money to buy a 1.8Ghz PowerMac G5 (or maybe a DP)?

It could use certainly more RAM, but a sampler is an heavy task so maybe the G5… Remember the imac is a entry level computer so it's not all over optimized for performance but a price…
Check the classifieds for a bipro G4 or a first generation G5 at least, with RAM ! (the most the better…) -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
