I am a Music Programmer.I am really keen to switch from Pc to Mac.
This my basic gear list . PC AMD X2 3800, Motu 828MK2, Cubase SX3, Akai Z4, EMU E4XT, Motif ES 6, Korg Sp100, Maudio Axiom 61and Midi sport. I'm really confused in selecting whether an IMAC 20 or Mac Pro. IMAC 20- It is affordable for me but the question is does it worth? Mac Pro. Should I wait for a Price slash? I also have a plan to switch Logic pro, though i am comfortable with Cubase, I would Like to how better Logic sounds with Motu 828 Pls help to find a solution asap!!!!! I found this Site really a cool one ! Thanks to moderators and the guys behind it!!! Cheers Anil Jons |

The Steinberg products currently aren't in the greatest shape on Mac, SX3 is not compatible to MacIntels.
Cubase 4 is incomplete for MacIntels, it's missing dither, and some of the bundled plugs also haven't been ported. Then there the issue of performance, from my experience apps like Logic and Digital performer can use 40%-60% more instances of virtual instruments and effects. My SX is installed on my PC where it performs the best. For more details check out Cubase.net mac forum. -------------------- G-Dub
