Hi ,

does anyone know if I can connect an Imac G5 with a Power Mac g5 for the Distributed Audio Processing within Logic Pro 7?

According to Logic literature, you need Gigibit ethernet to use the Logic node processing, which the iMac G5 does not have. However, I have read something about a workaround using Firewire. You might investigate that option.

How does this distribution work? Just plug in your gigabyte ethernet and bam, your other dual 2GHz G5 processor is added to teh power of your existing interface?

That's cool

You have one computer running logic 7, you plug other computers via Gigabyte ethernet to it (that means a switch used for this sole purpose, the network of the node should not be used for something else). You start the other computer(s) with the node software and you go.

Just tell into logic which is to be made by the node.

Now:
- use it for effects/dynamics, not instruments or latency will show its ugly head
- the master computer should run the instruments
- G5 are better the demo was with a G5 master and a Powerbook (G4) as node host

(had a little demo at paris SATIS fair last week)

Do all node computers need the Logic running, or do they just need to be on with the "node software?"
