I am running protools digi 001 on my G4, dual 500s, 640 ram, 160 hd. now i seem to be maxing out the capacity to handle my tracks after only about 8 tracks with some plugins, edits, etc.
my question is this... will i get signicant performance improvement by upgrading the memory, or will i only get there by jumping up to a faster processor? thanks for your input. |

thanks.. replies are appreciated!
i do indeed have 2 hard drives, one dedicated to audio. and i have been adjusting the hardware/playback engine settings as needed between tracking and mixing. I just don't know if it's worth keeping the current dual 500s and buying more ram, or if faster processors will be the only way to greatly increase my performance. I have to say, with those 8 tracks, i was using a number of plugins.. probably at least 1, maybe 2 on each of those tracks. thanks again to all who contribute. |
