Enforcer69 Welcome.
How many Tracks and what? Audio or MIDI? I use 78 Tracks of Audio with Logic Pro7. G5 Dual 2 GHz. RME Sound Card and Interface(s), a discontinued emagic amt/8, Mackie Mixer, Mackie Universal Control, good cables. Never any problems. Sometimes a Message saying: "Hey, easy... gimme a nano second. Now proceed". But, it's usually my clicking and pushing buttons too fast. Can't speak about MIDI, yet. The best and most accurate advice for unbiased opinions by serious 'Testers' is Sound On Sound Magazine, UK. You will find Macs simple compared to PC's from what I've heard ... I don't know, from day one I was Mac. Lot's of PC making the change. It's good because Mac was always looked down upon... I think it's because of our fancy 'Rich Kid' Price. Sort of how Prep were ragged upon. (I heard it in an Avril song). Oh, yeah... Software issues are serious issues with Macs... Security issues. You have to keep your make up to date with constant Security Downloads... Put something "Begged, Borrowed or Blue" into a Mac... They explode! " Be berry berry careful" ala Elmer Fudd. Welcome to da hood! |
