I am switching to Mac and generally want a laptop. I actually have already bought an MBox from digidesign. Initially, I intend to use ProTools LE, Absynth. I envision myself running mostly MIDI, with half of a dozen audio tracks. I intend to also get a glyph drive in the future.
So, knowing that, will the iBook 700 suffice. The debate of course between it and the PB (maybe 550). It seems like the iBook will be fine, especially when packed with 640 of RAM, but I've read comments here and there on the net about how it isn't for the 'Serious' audio production. No, I'm not recording the next Puff Daddy album, but I want something that I won't outgrow for 2-3 years. Any opinions are great, especially from current iBook owners... Thanks, Tim. |

Hi mate!
Thanx for all the info, you've been great help...When I'll get chance I'll log on to Tascam's website and check out US prices...This piece I really wanted to ask you abot is the AUDIOPHILE 2496 24 Bit 96 kHz 4 in / 4 out PCI Digital Recording Interface with MIDI made by MIDIMAN....I know you said they have a mixed reputatin, but I was andering if you have any info on this specific piece of gear...Its price here is $179 so its really cheap...I appriciate your concern about getting the best I can, but I can't wait anymore....I'v been waiting too long!!! So if you, or anyone else have information about the AUDIOPHILE working with Logic, I'd like to know how its going! Peace...
