Hi you all,
I am considering upgrading from a G4 to G5 (which one is to be discussed later...), so my Audiomedia III will be have to be dropped except if I choose a G5 1.8.... My questions are, at this time: 1/ which card do you think is the best (rapidity, least latency, sound quality). Within a reasonable price range (200 to 300 $) for a home studio. 2/ generally speaking, are PCI-X cards still better rated than FW ones ? (FW would free us from the problem of slots being changed these times... and probably more often in the future...). I had a look at some cards like Echo Mia-midi, M-Audio 410 too but I could not try them and I think there are some others worth looking at... Thanks for your posts !!

Hi Phil, thanks for your post.
The fact is that I have a G4 733, is that the beginning of the nightmare ?? !! I'll try to be more precise: overall: sound quality first, rapidity second, latency as short as possible third, price fourth (as I said, around 200 - 300 € or a little bit more, it depends....). Regarding FW and PCI-X devices: of these two kinds which one is the best in terms of sound quality and rapidity (regardless of all other features) ? In other words: if you had the means: what would you choose ?? FW ?? PCI-X ?? and in each of these two categories which ones do you rate among the best ?? Thanks !! |
