Hi, relatively new to this stuff, and hoping you can help.
I have a live gig (ugh... hate that word) coming up in a couple of months and I need to put together a simple keyboard rig. I've always drooled over the Sequential Circuits Prophet 5, so I'd like to come up with a Pro-53 virtual setup. Here's what I have: G3 Laptop, OS-9 Pro-tools Free M-Audio USB midi keyboard controller Before I drop $$$ on the Native Instruments Pro-53, I have some concerns/questions, and I'm hoping you can help: - Will the Pro-53 be compatible with Pro-tools Free/OS-9? Everything I read from the NI site talks about OS-X. - Am I missing something in the chain here? How do I get the audio from the Laptop into the external amp/pa? - Will latency be an issue? Is there a simpler setup that might alleviate this? - Can you recommend a decent free VST so I can test the setup before I get in any deeper? Thanks all! |

I don't think you'll have enough CPU to run PRO53 on a G3 powerbook. Pro52 barely runs on my G3 Beige without crapping out the CPU.
