Hi everybody, Im new in the forum and in the mac world! I posted my very first message yesterday and I have had no repplies so far, I'll give this forum one more chance!
I have always worked with cubase on a pc and I finally swithced last week. I'd like to know if anyone have tried cubase Sx3 on a powerbook, specially on a g4 1.5 ghz, 15 inches. Please tell me if I'm going to be able to use them together.
Thanks!

Sold my SX2 licence, because performance was poor when compared to DP4, and Logic6. It choked my 1GHz Powerbook, I was unable to playback sessions created in Cubase5, on a G4/400.

From my observations SX2 used 40%-60% more CPU with the same load, when compared to Logic and DP4.

If you want to use SX on Mac I suggest a newer Dual cpu G4, or G5. Better yet a PC.

You will probably be dissapointed with the performance on a single cpu machine, especialy if you're coming from PC land.

I'm thinking of taking a step into Logic 7. Seems like a good move because it's dedicated to OS X as am I and Cubase SX for the mac seems to have many issues.
