I presently run all my audio and effects natively on my G3 processor. It's only a small one (233MHz) and gets overloaded quickly with about 6 or 8 audio tracks with effects. I need some advice on what non-native solutions are available out there. As far as I'm aware there are DSP's (Digital Signal Processors) that take care of the effects (like the Powercore) and others that do both audio and effects (like DigiDesign's MixPlus). Is that right? Potential candidates so far are: TC Powercore, Digi Design 001, Yamaha DSP 2416, something by Terratec, MOTU Audio 2408, DigiDesign MixPlus, Creamware Pulsar, Creamware Scope.
Ideally I'm willing to spend more money on something that fully removes the load from my processor so that no matter what computer I buy (Macintosh) it will not overload. Basically I need at least 30 Audio tracks. thankyou karambos  ---------- www.thefair.de -------------------- Waiting on my new MacBook Pro

The replies you've received have all this topic covered thoroughly except for one thing I didn't *see* mentioned (I could have missed it), which goes back to something you said in your original message about the capabilities you were looking for: none of MOTU's audio interfaces have any on-board DSP effects capabilities.
