Hello there,
first time visiter, first time poster here... I am currently using a powerbook 1.25 and I want to move into the ability to use some robust virtual instruments like toon track's "ezdrummer" and spek's "atmosphere", along with interested in the new east west quantum leap app called "gypsy" and the like. My powerbook just wont cut it of course so I am thinking about getting a desktop mac. Can anyone tell me from real world knowledge whether I could do everything I want with a used dual g5 or whether I really need to bite the bullet and get the new quad 2.66 intel? I know ram is a big thing so I will upgrade either machine wiith atleast 4 gig ram. I will be looking to do realistic backing tracks for my songs with virtual instruments and then adding say 16 tracks of audio tracks as well to the track. Any ideas? Of course the music stores and the mac store are just out to sell the newest greatest of everything so you can't really get any honest opinions based on personal experience so I came here. Can anyone discuss this with me? Thanks and glad to be part of the group. |

Quads are the last G5, 4 cores, liquid cooling.
G5 Quad (PPC) are not Mac Pro (Intel Xeon). BTW, Apple should revamp the mac pro one of these days… -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home

Yes I understand that there was amac g5 quad and a newer mac intel g5. I have looked at them both as options but as you said I have found a few g5 quads with coolent damage already so I am staying far away from them for sure. As for the intel quad I have heard good and bad things. As for older dual g5 machines I have only heard great things about them.
thanks for your help Quads are the last G5, 4 cores, liquid cooling.
