I am building a new studio funded by my company so money is no obeject.
1) What is the best, top of the line, AD/DA converter and Audio I/O that is compatible with MAC G5 Panther. 2) If I am suping up my MAC with 8GB of RAM is it still necessary to buy additional DSP Cards for my VST processing? Ifo so, what is the difference between the two? Thanks in advance. |

Hello,
I am building up my modest home studio, so unfortunately money will be a big factor. I've just bought a 1.8 DP G5. The problem: I've an apparently incompatible Delta44 i/o I bought way back in 2001. From posts, I've gathered that the Delta44 is noisy when used with 1.8 DP & that Apple/M-audio aren't dealing with the issue (ugh). so...here are my questions: 1) What are the top contenders in the $200-300 range AD/DA converter and Audio I/O that is compatible with MAC G5 1.8 dp (o/s: Panther). 2) What's the smartest way to go with the power a g4 1.8dp's got onboard...firewire perhaps? I'm quite the newbie here, so I'd really appreciate some help  Thanks in advance. ((steveo))) |
