hi there,
last week i tried the new powerbook g4 of a friend of mine, fell in love with that wonderful creature, i decided to try out a program for guitar from native-instruments (guitarrig),i noticed that worked pretty well and with almost no latency, but the input volume was anyway to low, and when i tried to turn it up the guitar went in orrible feedback. so i just ordered an iMac g5, that i guess should go way better on prestations, but i really don't know if it's going to work the way i want. do i need an amplifier for my mixer to get the sound into the computer with a good recording level? I don't know much about the internal soundcard either. thanx for your opinions. greets Pietro |

The stereo input on your machine will take line level on a mini jack..with the right lead from your mixer you should get a good level, but it depends on what kind of features your mixer has..Group outputs? Auxilary / Effect sends? Direct outputs?
You may be happy with the sound of this 16 bit stereo input, if you need more quality you will have to buy an ' interface ' -------------------- Simon Flinn
