i'm hesitant to ditch my 9600, but i would like to add a software sampler to my setup. does anyone have experience with a halion or other such product on this machine? i could add a vst wrapper, since i use digital performer. i would also like to use my tdm environment. maybe i'm asking too much from the old 9600?

Damann is right too
Buy a second G4, install toys in it, and you may change your mind, when experimenting what native technologies can bring to you. BUT, keeping the 9600 to do what it always has been good for, may be a cheapest (an more reliable) solution than complety changing all your setup. I'm convinced that converting old mac to do simple tasks, is a better solutions than selling it for a few $ and trying to have the new machine making all the tasks. For example: when i've switched from PTIII nubus to the PCI one, i've kept my good old 7100 when buying the 9600, and i've converted the 7100 into a reliable, fast, never crashing, "multitask" CD burning/editing machine. that's now my "DAT" and when i've finished a project on the protools, i record it straith to the 7100 (with an old PT442 card) and use the 7100 to burn CDs for my clients, while doing other stuff on the 9600 at the same time (i can reboot, surf internet, crash if i want, etc...not disrupting the CD burning process). That far most reliable than trying to burn in background with toast 5, for example...on a single machine get the idea? -------------------- Soif, MacMusic Webmaster
