Greetings all!
I've been a PC user for decades, and have always been curious about the mac Audio scene (since everything seems to have spawned there). In the past I had not been able to afford to buy the hardware necessary to setup a mac in my home studio, this, it seems has changed. I have recently acquired a dual G4-5ooMhz, 512Mb RAM. My ST-Audio C-2000 card will transplant into it for audio. My question is, will this system be sufficient for multtrack recording? Please excuse my ignorance, I really have no idea. Any help would be appreciated.... -Me. |
