i dont have much money. and to do simple recording/sequence (1trackat a time, maye 2 but i doubt it) tasks. i wont be needing a G-something, right? im a guitarman and i just want to make some songs with midi drummachine, work out structures etc...

theres a company here in belgium that recycles macs and they sell a full equipped 7300/200 for 200euros. i wana buy that thing it looks very interesting for the price(for the research i have done on macs)

the only problem left is SOFTWARE, how do i get older versions of whatever cubase, cakewalk...

another thing: yes i wanna do those things on a computer. i worked with cakewalk pro audio 9 before on this computer (which is a pc that runs on windows and isnt mine) and i like that better than working on the stupid drummachine (alesis) on which i tend to lose my patience all the time. keep in mind that i dont have my own computer yet so im gonna use it for some other minimalistic things

you think id be allright for 400-500 euros?

any suggestions Highly Appreciated smile.gif

and im sorry if theres been someone else before with a similar question. i looked for a bit and it looks like the most have a g3 or more. so before i got crazy i made my own thread blink.gif smile.gif

A few thing you must consider too : there will be no USB so you rely on serial/ADB keyboards/mouse/printer/midi interface/modem

You'll can find them dirt cheap (be carefull you have the eventual drivers needed!)

You'll have an audio in CD quality, it can be used, but something better will be a PCI card.

If you want to use the mic input if there is one (can't remember), the minijack socket is peculiar as it powers the Apple original mic.

On the computer, just buy the most powerfull you can afford! Check that it has a lot of RAM, it's important, and it can get costly if you have to complete with some more.

(yes now we know everything and we'll tell it to News of the World to put you to shame wink.gif cool.gif laugh.gif
