I am using cubas SE and need to upgrade. My mac finds cubase hard work. I always thought Logic would be worse but I am not so sure now.
Has any one here got either cubase + logic or cubase + live 5 on their mac? If so do you find one of these to be lighter on the CPU than the other? Any advice would be welcomed as a sequencer chance is a big step. |

If you are using OSX Logic is the most effecient, followed by DP.
Cubase is the biggest CPU hog and has the highest minimum requirements of all the Mac DAWs Live is ok but lacks support for Altivec, and dual processors. I own them all except SX because it's performance was so bad that I sold it to a PC freiend.

I am glad I noticed the system requrements for cubase when I checking features for upgrage tha other day. Just as I suspected then. I might be able to keep my much loved G4 imac after all
