I am building a new studio funded by my company so money is no obeject.
1) What is the best, top of the line, AD/DA converter and Audio I/O that is compatible with MAC G5 Panther. 2) If I am suping up my MAC with 8GB of RAM is it still necessary to buy additional DSP Cards for my VST processing? Ifo so, what is the difference between the two? Thanks in advance. |

Just becasue you have lots of money to spend doesn't mean the most expensive option is best... Don't forget that your music won't be as pristine on the end users system. Ram is a great investment and it looks like you have that more than covered. Logic 7 Pro is a great DAW for MIDI (arguable the best for MIDI). A Motu 828mkII firewire interface with an Apogee Big Ben clock and some Mackie monitors will give you more clarity from your system than any end user will ever be able to appriciate...
Once you've completed a piece burn it and play it through an average end users system. If it doesn't kick there a $40000 Pro Tools mixer and rack of $6000 dollar converters won't make it sound better to the audience... [Unless you equip each theatre with the same kit and stop serving noisy snacks (like those damn nachos!) to the patrons.] |
