Hey all...glad to be a part of this site\forum..happy 2005./...
I just have 2 quick questions about the new Mac Mini... Due to budget constraints I ordered the Mac Mini as a better DAW than what I am using....after countless blue screens and crashes im switching to a Mac......but anyway how do you all think the Mac Mini will stack up in recording music?? I mainly do hip hope so I really only need about 10 tracks....I purchased the 1.4 g4 mini with 512 ram.....and the 80gig hard drive......Please any insights are welcome ...THANKS!!!!!!! Also thinking about actual devices I was leaning toward Pro Tools Mbox but also have been doing a little research and for about the same amount of money I could get the cheapest MOTU ..... Could anyone point me in the right direction? Glad to be a part of the forums....Thanks to everyone in advance,..!!! |

Nooo not the Mbox! take if from one who knows - unless you NEED Pro Tools, the Mbox and OS X just dont mix. its issue after issue, compounded with bad efficiency and bad latency...
The Presonus Firebox is the one I am keeping my eyes on, if they ever decide to make it avaiable! ("shippinging december" changes to "shipping this month", a decidedly Orwellian timeframe!)
