Hi,
I've been working for a couple of years with following setup: G4 dual 1G/1,5G RAM/2*80G HD's Logic Pro 6.3.3 bunch of pluginns I notice I run out of headroom with some of my tracks. Now I'm thinking of switching over to protools instead of getting a G5 Any recommendations/ideas much appreciated Thanks! |

Don't understand why you'd think Pro Tools might solve the headroom problem. Depending on how many tracks and on how excessive your use of plugins/effects is, you're always going to run into that headroomless wall, ..no matter what you're using as your DAW. Plus, Pro Tools is proprietary in design and has poor Midi implications. Pro Tools is great for mic oriented projects and that's mainly why it's so widely used in the studio, but still has other limitations, that Logic does not. Since you're already familiar with Logic Pro, I would say, ..definitely get the G5. And if your Dual G4 is in good working order, with minimal scratches and such, you could get a decent penny for it, to help with your $$$ spending. I use Digital Performer, but my second choice was Logic Pro.
