hi
man, i hope this is in the right place.... Ok, i want to upgrade my computer, & i was thinking of getting a dual 1.42 ppc only because i'm unsure if my UAD card, and other applications would work if i bought a used dual G5. i can only spend about 1200.00 bucks or so & my current computer has been upgraded from a G4/400 to a 1.25 ghz (it use to scream) but as everyone here knows that won't do anymore, so it's time to make a move and this is the best place to get REAL info reguarding mac music. any insight would be greatly valued. thanks. G4 1.25ghz (single) OS 10.4.8 2 megs of ram Mbox protools 7.3LE |

And I believe FatBoy Slim uses something even more prehistoric and a lot of people still use an Atari. Point is, if it's just MIDI data and you're triggering external hardware routed through a hardware mixing desk, no problem. But if you want to record digital audio, use virtual instruments, plug-ins and mix it all in the box, you need a more powerful computer.
