there are a number of processor upgrades on the market. I understand that pci type accelerators are ill advised for audio processing, but what about the ones where you swap it for your old processor. does anyone on the forum have any experience of using say sonnet st g4 upgrades? this is going tto be the only way to improve my digioo1 system on powermac g4agp400 on my budget with a mortgage to pay and a baby due in may.

thank you

you could ask on the digi user conference to see if anyone has had a similar upgrade done, www.digidesign.com, press support then press user conference, I understand there were a lucky few who had g4 upgrades working ok in their 9600's with tdm pci systems, I had a sonnet g3 upgrade in my 8100 with the old nubus digi tdm system and that was fine but that's irrelevent blink.gif the underlying message is that cpu upgrades are widely used and generally reliable.
