If I were in your shoes, I would get myself an mbox, but I would make absolutely sure that I got it together with a version of ProTools that runs on OS9, that is ProTools 5.x. (ProTools 6.x only runs OSX)
Then I would start up in OS9 every time I´d like to use ProTools and I would probably have an aight number of tracks/effects. I would try it on OSX, but if it didn´t work out, it´s all good. Still got OS9. When I´d get my new G5 I´d move everything to OSX. This is what I´d done, but I don´t mind being backwards and work in boring old OS9. You decide, depending on how interested you are in ProTools. Check out the user conference on www.digidesign.com. Did a quick search for "400 mhz" and found this. Might be interesting. Good luck. |
