haven't posted in a while, and finally I am getting an upgrade from my iBook G4 (10.4.11)
I think I'll be getting an iMac
I have always partitioned my drives about 2/3 for the OS and apps and 1/3 for files - or writing files to.
I like the benefit of having "two" drive mainly because it takes much lsee time to defrag a sammler drive

however I have heard that snow leopard does not benefit from partitioning or from defragging. (could that be true?)
I have always been fond of my "tool" programs to keep my system up and running at its best. Like TechTool , Drive Genius, Onyx, and of course applejack.

any thoughts on if there is a reason to partition or not?

thanx

hey
so...
I am new to AudioDesk... and the Ultralite

I have been in the field( with power) the past 2 weekends recording two festivaLS
the Pickathon and North West World Reggae Festival
been using my MOTU Ultralite > AudioDesk 2.04
on my Mac iBook G4/1.2 ghz / 1.25gb ram OSX 10.3.9

while I have recorded a number of thing, my iBook has not been recording for so long as at thses two festivals
12 - 15 hours perday w/o restarting
I have gotten now a few times a message about memory buffer full (harddrive slow) with the option of clicking continue...

I always optimize my drive (internal 7200rpm 80 gb) using techtool and also use applejack to repair permissions etc partitioned in 1/2 all software and OS is on one partition and the faudio fdiles are written on the other partition


in the past I have tried recording to different 7200rpm firewire external drives...

which is what I did all day Sunday at reggae fest
and the end of the last couple of sets on saturday , after the message
sunday same message

all were recording only 4-tracks 2 mics 2 hosue PA soundboard feeds
24 bit / 44.1khz


I am wondering if the fact that both evens wwere powered with bio diesel generators, and at least at NWWR fest we were having some issues with even power off of them
could have caused it?
or running so long with out restarting, causing temp files to build in the cache?


ran with my CHUD sysprefs processor nap off

any one got any ideas...
more info needed?



thanx
in advance

peace thru music

after 2 + years struggling with
my Presonus Firebox and issues with it

I am considering "upgrading" to a
MOTU Ultralite

Do you use one?
what are you're thoughts?

What software do you use with it?
does it function properly every time?


I am running a iBook G4 1.2ghz 1.25GB Ram but often get poping and clicking and other digi noise with the firebox, I NEED reliability!

and record live shows in the field
There for I need a reliable unit that can function (by battery) with lack of "wall" power...

any insight would be very helpful

thanx

Does any one know if there is away to get my
G4 1.2ghz iBook (OSX 10.3.9) to be able to run with the lid/cover/ screen in the closed position without it going into sleep mode?
I Ask since I do Live recordings
and often it would be great if I could start recording and then close the cover and stow the iBook away,since I can monitor any clippin levels on my presonus firebox....

I thought I heard that this couldbe possible...

thanx
