Hi,
I've been working for a couple of years with following setup:
G4 dual 1G/1,5G RAM/2*80G HD's
Logic Pro 6.3.3
bunch of pluginns

I notice I run out of headroom with some of my tracks.
Now I'm thinking of switching over to protools instead of getting a G5
Any recommendations/ideas much appreciated

Thanks!

Hello,

Steinberg supports VST-LINK, linking up multiple machines via an audio cable to the sound card. I'm going to try this with my two PC's pretty soon, and you can have Mac's in the fray as well so with the G5 I'm getting I'll have 3 machines running, which if it works well is a very good reason for me to stay with Cubase SX/Nuendo.

I'll tell you Logic users that I did Logic PC 5.5 before going to SX2 and I found SX to support a very nice interface and I found the Audio to be better (Nuendo heritage, though I didn't know back then) and midi seemed pretty able as well, though Logic is considered the king by most. Wait to find out what Yamaha does with Steinberg, but if you have a few machines SX is an option and would be easy adapting to from my own experience. This is of course if Yamaha doesn't abandon the Apple market in reaction to Logic leaving PC market, because with Logic gone every PC user went to SX/Nuendo, with a few going to Sonar but they don't know any better =) (sorry but that interface flow just blows, even as far as PC apps go)

I have a post under PC | Mac that talks about a lot of this sort of stuff with good input from everyone, PT HD talk, and such. Maybe it might help.
