I have a emac G4, running OSX 10.39. It has no P C I port, but does have firewire (400 only I think). 80 gb hard drive and 528 ram.
I want to use Pro Tools plug ins and intend to get an M audio firewire soundcard that works with "Pro Tools M powered". Will my emac be compatible with the soundcard? Id be really grateful for any info as Im a tech newbie. Many thanks. Phil Murphy |

For the basic compatibility info, always check first The Compato page at Digi. It says for the emac

It`ll work fine. I have some experience with ProTools LE on less than optimal computers.
I have been running PT6.9 on a 800mhz iBook, with 384MB ram. Didn`t run awesome, but it ran. More RAM and a firewire HD, and you`ll be ready to rock in no time. -------------------- @ home:
