Hello,

I'm using Mac for audio production only for few weeks now, so please forgive me those silly questions smile.gif

Ok, so I've read on this forum that making two accounts on OS X -one for daily stuff and other optimized for music making is very good solution. Well... indeed it works fine, but I have some annoying problems with it too. I'm using Logic Express 7 and every time I open my song all the samples have to be reload again, software cannot save overview as this account doesn't have enough privileges for that. Do I have to change privilages to every folder ? Is there a way to set it globaly ?

Other problem I have is that Logic does mix/export audio to either WAV and AIFF format but neither of them can be played later with Quick Time and system don't know how to open this files. I overcome this problem importing it to Audacity (at least WAV files because Audacity don't recognize Logic's AIFs) I can live with that... but since I do everything on Logic (mixing and mastering too) it takes much more time.

And the last thing is memory in Mac's. I have G4 with 512MB. I don't use a lot of software samplers and much ram consuming applications... so the question is - how expanding ram to 1GB would change my system performance for my use ? Would it change it A LOT ?

I'm a bit affraid of reading what I wrote. Anyway it's a Getting Started Forum, isn't it ? tongue.gif

thanks !
