I have a G3 that I bought from a friend who bought a G4 from a friend who bought a G5. The G3 has been sitting around, as I basically have to start from scratch with it (I've put 512M of RAM in it, with two slots to go...other than that, no interface, etc...) I was using my roommate's PC, but I feel like it is time to get my own up and running. I will probably use it mostly for Reason and wave editing, but we used to record six tracks of audio simultaneously on it in ProTools...so I know it is still a very capable machine.

Recording audio tracks is largely dependent upon the speed of the hard disk. My G3 iBook can handle 12+ tracks at once if I use my FW disk. Reason is a whole other story. That depends upon the CPU and RAM. For a G3, I'd recommend working in OS9 if possible, since it has a much lower overhead than OS X. Also, were you running PT LE or a PT MIX (TDM) system? If its the latter, that will help greatly with CPU usage. Ce message a été modifié par edge100 - lun. 5 juin 2006, 12:14. |
