I have IMac G4 800 Flat Panel 15' Mhz and iBook 12' G4 1.0 Mhz

planning to purchase Logic 7 Pro,
what to expect on theese configurations... do not have a cash for G5
yet...?

My daily use is usually going to be , recording up to 8 multi tracks of 24bit audio ,
and mixin' it using EQ's and one high quality reverb (Space Designer) + few mastering plugins . or using few virtual instruments with few audio tracks.
Is this real on my macs.... or should i forget about it and saving for
G5...?

thanks for your input

iMac G4 800 Mhz Flat Panel/ 768Mb RAM
iBook G4 1 Ghz /768Mb RAM

OSX 10.3.7 / MOTU 828 FireWire interface/ 80GB External FireWire HD

from 2 to 8 maximum simultaneous tracks prferrably 24-bit
for 1 hour uninterrupted Live Bands recordings.

reasistic?

Yes. Definitely realistic.

As long as you're only recording 8 tracks simultaneously, it probably shouldn't be a problem on the iMac, and if the external harddisk is 7200 rpm it shouldn't be a problem on the iBook either.
You probably won't have any problems running the plug-ins you're talking about either.

But don't expect it to handle too many instances of the biggest Logic plug-ins too well (Sculpture, Space Designer). I usually have to freeze if using more than two or three instances of these plug-ins.
