Hi there,
Is this new imac 2GHz core duo a decent system for recording? I currently have Pro Tools LE 6.1 with the MBox (1). I'm most likely going to upgrade to the FireBox or another firewire interface and with different software in the future. The digi 002 is quite expensive for a fire wire connection. I'm sure it's sweet, but the MOTO seems like a good product and it's cheaper. I don't like how Pro Tools locks you into their gear. Basically any thoughts on the new imac 2 GHZ core duo are welcomed and appreciated. Thanks, Rob Ce message a été modifié par RobbieG - lun. 14 août 2006, 13:45. |

I have the 2GB/250GB option on my 20", and I've never had CPU issues in either Logic 7.2 or Live 5.2 (which is my new DAW of choice). Skip the 002. It is just "ok" sounding, and offers little to no flexibility in terms of DAW choice. Get yourself a Metric Halo 2882 or RME Fireface for less, and spend the extra $$$ on monitoring, acoustic treatment, or something like that, especially if you already own another DAW. |
