Protools On A Powerbook Options

[artyfufkin]

Hi this is probably a stupid question but I will ask it anyway.

I currently use Pro Tools 6.2.2LE on my G4 466 Power Mac. I have the DIGI001 interface but because I tend to only use samples and some midi I have hardly ever actually needed to plug a real mic or instrument into it.

I saw Powerbook G4s on sale and I want to get one and be able to run Pro tools on it so I can work on my sessions on the train/couch etc with headphones.

Will I be able to run my Pro tools LE software on the powerbook without a hardware interface? Or could I use M-Powered if I got that?

I seriously wouldn't need any ins/outs, if I ever have the need I can always use the Powermac and the DIGI001 anyway.

Also, assuming I can find it, will M-powered run without the dongle?

Wow... Great songs, each better than the next, all constructed professionally. Chords, Structure, Playing, Voice, Variety. You have done well... Bravo.

You're also correct regarding G3's and G4's. I was very surprised when I went into one of Gremany's Top Mastering Studio's and found they worked on a G4 OS9.

You sure got that "Rock" Thang down. Lot of creativty and work has gone into your compositions. Excellent.

Thanks for the comments Mac Daddy! I am very proud of that work. I now get well-paid mixing work on the strength of that.

Those songs were written by myself and my co-songwriter (he's the singer and the lyricist). Everything else I played or programmed, but unfortunately I'm not working with him anymore. We got very close to a deal a couple of times in the USA although we are from UK.

I'm not so bothered about going out on tour or being a rock star anymore, but I'd still like to see that album have some success and bring some financial reward for all the work that went into it!

Glad you liked it. Thanks again.
