Hello,
I am a longtime PC user making the switch. I will be getting the imac G5, and already have the Tascam US-428 interface from my PC. Is there any sequencer/DAW option that will work best with OSX? I have been using Sonar and am looking for the easiest Software to switch to that is compatible... Cubase/Logic/DP...?
Thanks
Mike

Have you considered Ableton's Live 4? Extremely responsive DAW that does a lot. VST and AU support, MIDI and Realtime Audio Download the demo if you are interested. Ableton Live 4I have used Garageband and it is great for the price, but it is at times sluggish and does have some limitations. I have also been using DP 4. Digital Performer is a nice app with a lot of features, but it isn't easy to learn. Also, it is less stable than the above mentioned apps unless you are on a monster machine. My suggestion is to give Live 4 a try, especially if you find Garageband a touch limiting.
--------------------
Ableton Live 4.1
Reason 3
Mac OS 10.3.8
G5 Dual 1.8 Ghz 2 GB RAM 160 HD
EzQuest 120 GB 7200 Firewire HD
EzQuest 200 GB 7200 Firewire HD - Pro Audio
M-Audio Firewire 410 (driver 1.4.3)
Behringer B1 Microphone (2x)
Behringer HPS3000 Headphones
Yamaha DX-11 going through a MidiMate XP (Midi to USB adapter)
