Hi,

I am attempting to record 2 tracks live with DP4 on a 12" G4 powerbook and am getting a "disk too slow" error. I own a MOTU 828 mkII, but prefer to keep it in the studio and record with the built in audio for live purposes. I use a Rode NT4 stereo condenser mic with built in power and plug directly into the mac. I have adjusted the buffer settings to 1024 and still it gives me the error after recording for awhile. I have a total of 768 megs of RAM and feel this should suffice for 2 track live recording. I play in a jam band and hope to record continually for up to 3 hours, stopping from time to time to save of course. Do i need an external firewire drive? If so, do i install DP4 on it or keep it on the internal drive. Any help would greatly be apprectiated!

THanks for the reply destroyw! My studio size set is 8 mono and 4 stereo("latte" setting) with 150 k bytes disk read/write size and buffer size per voice = 350. I am worried the 4200 rpm internal disk drive is being overworked. What do you think? I have recorded successful band practices; however it always seems to give the error during extended performances! Go figure! Our band is beginning to think a curse has been bestowed upon us! We have tried recording with other DAWs and always seem to get this error (ie- MBox w/ Pro Tools LE). Thanks again for reply.
