Hi, I am very new to this whole mac affair. For over 25 years, I have been using PC to create music and till now have come up to Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 with a creative Extigy sound card. I use a lot of ethnic sounds which are not part of the software synths and hence create my own sound fonts (which only the creative sound card supports). Now that I intend buying an imac G5, I would like to know whether Logic express/pro is compatible with this sound format. If not, how does one get them integrated into the software for use. These are wave files, convered into sound fonts and work exactly like the MIDI sounds (except that they have to be supported by the sound card as far as the pc is concerned).
I would be grateful if some one can give some detailed information on this. Thanks, Narayanan |

Honestly, unless you buy a G5 with the optical digital audio in, you're going to need some alternative sound input and output device, like one of the Roland/Edirol USB boxes. Pretty much any one of them will do the trick to get you started. I have friends who have completed movie soundtracks using only a 1.6 ghz G5, Logic 7, and a cheapo Edirol USB audio interface.
Hope this helps. |
