Hi folks, biggrin.gif

I'm actualy using a nice legacy refurbished Pro tools III tdm pci on a 9600 PPC with G4 sonnet 800 mhz
one card i/o and 3 dsp farm everything run ok.
My question is : is there a easy way to migrated and upgrade to a 24bits mix or mixplus system ?
I though it was possible to do this by just swap my i/o card PTIII and replace with an used mix core card from a old mix system. is it possible ? or m'i wrong?
I don't want to go PTLE, Because of the awful lantency.
Thanks for your answer and sorry for my poor english. wink.gif

Hello there,

From what I've heard and recall from the time everyone used 24Mix is that you can use the DSP Farm cards (PCI) with a Mix Core card without problems and I think you can use both DSP Farm cards and Mix Farm cards at the same time too if you place them in this order: 1, Mix Core 2, Mix Farm 3, DSP Farm. It's the same wit the HD cards, you can use the old HD cards with HD Accel and you can even use the 888's through the legacy port on a HD system too.
You can find used Mix Core cards very cheap on ebay and maybe you can find a better G4 too, maybe a dual machine.
Hope this helps you...

Best Regards,

Andy
