Hi all, I am about to make the switch to MAC (wohooo), but I would like to know peoples opinions of the built in audio interface. Could I use the built in audio interface to efficiently run my VST's AU's and reason? I ask because I would very much love to carry my MAC on stage as is and plug straight into a PA.
Your thoughts would be most appreciated. Many Thanks. Phil. |

Yes, it's great to have CoreAudio as the built-in API for OS X. It has low latency and multiple channels. The built-in soundcard (and most externals) run at 512 frames per buffer.
Where does QuickTime say it's 64-bit? That probably means it's a built as a 64-bit library, not processing 64-bit samples. -- PROGRESSION: Music Software for Guitar |
