First Thanks to all the people who helped other people in these forums…you helped more than just the person you replied to…Greatly Appreciated
Secondly I plan on keeping my posts as To-The-Point as possible… 1st Background Info to put the issue in perspective… I’m planning to purchase a PowerBook G4 for Two Dedicated Purposes: 1) Music Production and Recording (Cubase, Pro Tools) 2) Live Performance (V-Stack)…so in essence A VST Beast! I plan on buying: Akai MPC2500 M-Audio Semi-weighted 88 Keys M BOX II I just realized that these devices are mainly connected via USB… ************************************ *My question for The Gurus is: If the G4 only has 1 USB port…How should I connect these devices? USB HUB? If so, is it stable? I’m was raised on PCs but I’m not ashamed to admit that I’ve been seduced by The Mac and I’m a tip away from totally going Mac …Somebody sell me on it…PLEEEAAASE!!! |
