Hi,
I'm thinking of buying a 17" MacbookPro maxed out with 2Gb RAM for use with the new Cubase4 Studio and Kontakt2 sampler + various other VST Instruments.. Spectrasonics, Latigo etc.. I also have an MAudio FW410 interface which I currently use on my G4 Powerbook.. it doesn't give me any problems - as long as I have nothing else connected to either the FW400 or 800 buss. My question is, are the fw400 and 800 connections on the MacbookPro on seperate busses, or the same? As I want to go for the faster 100Gb internal drive (7200rpm) I may need to also buy an external 7200rpm FW800 drive to accomodate all my project data.. samples , audio etc.. obviously, if I did this I wouldn't be able to run the MAudio interface reliably if the 800 bus was being shared or 'seen' by the 400 buss.. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.. Thx |

My only solutions are either a USB 2 drive or find a firewire ExpressCard/34… like this one (now, never used or heard of it, so I can't assure it's perfect.)
Belkin is working on one as far as I've seen on google, but it's not out already… -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
