I got one of those 1GHz G4's that boot in OSX but contain a "Classic" environment that supposedly runs OS 9.2. THe salesman convinced me it would work. So I went out and got mysef a Digi001 with Pro Tools LE 5.2 to run in this "Classic" environment.
The OMS setup crashes the computer. Pro Tools doesn't even start up. And now whenever I reboot the computer, a big orange OMS button just jumps onto the screen with a big question mark over it. Help! Is there a solution? Or should I just take the damn thing back to the shop and go back to my old G3 running OS 8.5. I'm sorely tempted. |

Unfortunately I'm still stuck in the OS9 trap. It's not just Pro Tools I'm using my Mac for. All my other software is OS9 and upgrading all that to OSX will cost thousands of pounds as all the upgrades are not upgrades at all but a whole new re-write, you have to buy it ll over again.
Plus, I run a professional studio and I've been using my beloved Nuendo, Reason, Recycle, etc, for years and I just can't tell all my clients that from now on those programs aren't going to work! I will make the move to OSX, but not yet, not before all the software has caught up. And everyone I've asked is saying the same thing. Switch to OSX, but don't do it yet! |
