I bought (was sold) an M-Audio Quattro USB audio/midi interface.
Have a B&W Powermac OS X 12.2.8 - 512 RAM - G4/500 upgrade processor.

It was an 'open box' special - which I obviously knew - i didn't know its a discontinued model.... There is, however a driver on the M-Audio site that is supposed to work with OS X 12 and 13 (Jaguar & Panther).

I install it. The MIDI seems to work fine
But on the System Preferences 'Sound' panel AND
in Apple's Audio Midi Setup utitilty program's panels, though the Quattro device appears as an option for sound input & output, when I choose it, further settings/choices are grayed-out.

In the 'Sound' preference panel. when chose, no sound is registered on Apple's 'level meter'. etc

Any ideas or should i return it???

Hi -
I'm experienced with Mac's but not music software.
I'm interested in learning by starting with a program to mix maybe a few midi and a few audio tracks.

I've seen Logic Express for $140 student price and Cubase SE at Sam Ash for $100

Are there any real differences between these 2 products as far as what they DO?? Is it just a matter of differring special effects? (I'm most interested in pitch shifting audio due to my limitations of various kinds - ha)

I get the idea that these programs are basically what used to be called 'sequencer programs' (a term that seems extinct for some reason - i had dabbled in Metro 4 a LITTLE years ago)

I have a B&W Powermac with a G4/500 upgrade chip. And a Casio consumer MIDI keyboard and a USB interface i got a while back, in case thats a concideration for the software.

In short - assuming my machine can run them (which I think it can) what do these programs (or their big brothers) actually do that are different from each other - interfaces etc aside.
Thanks
