 I'm also getting into the idea of different toys for guitar(or GTR) into the MAC protools freeware version. Recently I lost the powersupply for my 4 track analog machine-AKA a scratch pad thats portable.this forced me to look again at my MAC.I realised I needed something useful but easy to set up.I looked around and found a GVOX Guitar pack that nobody wants.It is not made anyomore!Not supported either...GVOX has moved on to Metro and other cool stuff.I paid 50 dollars for it.And it's ok for me for now.Since I am running a old Powermac 6500/300 it's easy to configure and it's a nobrainer 4 me.I plan to get a Midiman midisport once I have more knowledge of the G3/G4 Macs and upgrade to OS9/X system software. You may want to educate yourself about signal/noise and preamping and studio setup B4 you get anything.(No point in getting buyers remorse!) One thing is for sure the bigger the hard drive and more memory, generally, the better.especially if you plan to keep adding tracks. A good place to start reading about MAC offline is the Recording 4 dummies book that came out recently.It is easy to follow,and if your new, or have a lot on your mind and love music it's a good thing to check out. |
