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 advice Dustan, i'll give it a try. I have a Pbook G4 12" that is expandable to 1.25 GB. Right now I have 512 MB module installed in addition to the 256 MB factory installed module.
After checking out various models of firewire drives (LaCie, Glyph, OWC, etc.), I think I'll be buying a Seagate 160 GB external firewire drive with 7200 rpm and 8 MB cache. At $220 (American) it is a little pricey; however, it seems worth it. Take it easy, KC |
