I Just got my powerbook, yay! its the 1.33ghz 512mb ram, with the fast harddrive (7800rpm i think). I've got the Edirol fa-101 for my audio interface.
Right now I'm using reason 2.5, I'm lookng to add audio to my tracks. Should I go with Cubase or Logic for this? they both support rewire as far as I know. I have no experience with either program so will be learning which ever I choose. Seems like most people talk about using logic in this forum and a friend said "logic hands down". Just wondering what some others think before I go dropping a grand.
thanks in advance,
JS

Having the audio card and hard drive on the same firewire port is of no consequence.

In a session I usually only record a few tracks at a time which is nowher near the full bandwith of the firewire pipe. Even is you record 8 to 16 tracks at a time, you should have any problems.
