Hey all...glad to be a part of this site\forum..happy 2005./...
I just have 2 quick questions about the new Mac Mini... Due to budget constraints I ordered the Mac Mini as a better DAW than what I am using....after countless blue screens and crashes im switching to a Mac......but anyway how do you all think the Mac Mini will stack up in recording music?? I mainly do hip hope so I really only need about 10 tracks....I purchased the 1.4 g4 mini with 512 ram.....and the 80gig hard drive......Please any insights are welcome ...THANKS!!!!!!! Also thinking about actual devices I was leaning toward Pro Tools Mbox but also have been doing a little research and for about the same amount of money I could get the cheapest MOTU ..... Could anyone point me in the right direction? Glad to be a part of the forums....Thanks to everyone in advance,..!!! |

When it comes down to it the mini is really just an iBook in a box, it has plenty of power for any music related tasks. I have done everything from recording, editing, mixing, and performances and not had a clich. Speaking of NAMM there were iPods, iBooks and Mini's all over the show. One group playing on the floor had replaced their drummer with 2 iPods. And at one of the nightly shows Steve Stevens was playing, and had all of his effects on a Mac Mini and ran them all via a touch screen....
