Perhaps my last post was confusing. I need to know if anyone can tell me what kind of performance to expect from running Logic express on an iBook. If anyone can tell me possible problems or known limitations. I don't intend to record more than 12 tracks per song (one at a time) and even that total will be rare.
Please help. I'm getting a mac for music come hell or high water, but I want to make an informed decision. All I get from store managers is a push to buy a PowerMac. And I would love to someday, but for now I can't bloody afford it. HELP! Thank you for your time. |

QUOTE (bigyello @ Jun 29 2005, 19:22) keep in mind, however, that ibooks do have dedicated video RAM, instead opting to share system memory. what this will do is bog down ur system when scrolling in place, etc. [...] when recording audio, ur main concerns are with disk speed and i/o. when editing tracks and using plugins, ur concerns have more to do with processing power and system bandwidth (fsb, etc). Could you elaborate a little on these problems? Will they cause functional problems for play back or cause a loss of recorded material in anyway, by which I mean if I were to record an instrument and a vocal track at once say, would the computer drop parts of the signal at all? Also what make of mobile pre do you recommend? This post has been edited by OneDerBoy: Wed 29 Jun 2005, 21:58 |
