First, thanks to all who chimed in on the logic big box v. cubase SL.
After doing a lot more research, I'm trying to decide between logic 6 Gold and Cubase SX. I tried cubase on a pc and liked it, but from looking at the Steinberg forum, there seems to be a lot of problems w/ OSX and Cubase SX, but it's always hard to tell if the people claiming that are just a vocal minority, using a cracked copy etc. I'd be interested in hearing if people think that Cubase SX works well with Mac, or, if it is excpetionally buggy and I should stick to an Apple-owend product, or DP 4. Thanks |

I have been suing a full legit copy of Cubase SX (1.052) with NO problems at all. I use a G4 933 with 752M of RAM and the MOTU 828 interface under OS 10.2.5 update. I have had a few spiratic crashes, mostly when I really load the plugins on it but other than that very good.
One complaint, AUDIO UNITS!!! They had said they could do it when i bought it and Steinberg simply neglegted to say that they had not infact put them in the copy I purchased. As well the export to MP3 function available under SX for PC seems to be non-existant in the MAC for this version. If you can be patient on those two features until them come out in future version I would recommend Cubase SX without hesitation. The install was LITERALLY pulgin hardware, install software, restart and go. The MIDEX 3 i bought for USB was even easier. REPLY TO DIXIE CHICKEN: Sx has worked very well for me with my Proteus 2000. Go to the EMU website and download the patchnames for the unit and they come up fully named and in fact searchable. i can change my setup accuratly and within a second of changing my mind.
