Hey everybody. I just recently switched from a PC to my wonderful new PowerMac duel 1.25GHz G4. While on PC I used Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 and Sonar for all my recording/sequencing. Now that I'm on a mac, what should I look into? I seem to have noticed that the big players are Protools 6, MOTU Digital Performer, and Cubase. Any others I should look into? Thanks in advance.

Rickenbacker, unfortunately I havent used SX for recording live instruments my music is pure electronic, my vocals however are obviously audio, and I can produce industry quality results, expecially with the old VST plug-ins.

I do think nowadays it is getting very hard to choose which programme to use, to me its as if Pro Tools isnt as impressive as it used to be as many new programmes can handle Audio as good, SX uses the same audio engine as Nuendo whic makes it a viable entry for anyone who wants to create professional audio.

It all comes down to money! In an ideal world, I would like t have a fully integrated Pro Tools studio, but I can honestly say I am producing tracks that are of similar standard at the fraction of the price.

I am a Cubase man now, the latest update has aolved all problems with SX, it runs like a dream.

Good luck Kyle, I hope you get it right for yourself.
