Hello,
I am interested in getting feedback from any members that are using mac mini computers to do music. I recently purchased the mac mini specifically for general use; but I realized I have a computer w/ a 1.42ghz processor. I've been doing music projects on a 500mhz G4 powerbook for the last few years. My software of choice is Logic Pro 7.1. The audio interface is a Firewire 410. I'm interested in knowing if mac minis have been reliable for others who are recording audio. Secondly, I'm interested in the choices of software that others are using with this computer besides the bundled garageband software. Any feedback would be great. Thanks |

hey bassman1976,
let me know how your setup behaves with 1gb of ram, i got the 1.42ghz mini with 512mb ram and i'm thinking of live with softsynths, maybe reason as well. Let me know if the 1gb of ram sorts things out for you. cheers z |
