Hi all,
I am just about to purchase a 15 inch G4 powerbook 1.5ghz and intend to run Logic Express. Would anyone be able to tell me how many tracks of audio I could expect to run smoothly if: - no plug ins are being used - recorded at 16 bit quality Cheers |

If your're not using any effects or soft-synths, the limit wil be your hard drive speed. Playing audio alone hardly uses any processor power.
I use a 12" 1Ghz Powerbook with Logic Platinum 6, and have recently completed a project with about 20 tracks of 16bit audio running from the Powerbooks internal 4200rpm hard drive. The hard drive was at about 60% (with occasional peaks above that), so there was probably room for a few additional tracks, but if you want 48 tracks, you'll probably need an external firewire/usb hard drive. -------------------- electronicmusic.dk
