440 Forums _ Mac PowerPC _ Emac G4 For Recording

Écrit par : rickenbacker ven. 23 août 2002, 12:55

Anyone got any thoughts on the eMac as a standalone recording station? Being a G4 (only 700MHz now, but within a few months it'll probably be 800MHz) it looks like a pretty good solution, plus Apple have just announced one with a SuperDrive for £1,000. I was thinking of buying one to use solely for music, so if anyone has got any thoughts I'm all ears. Thanks.

I think it's a fine machine. However I'd probably Dedicate a 7200rpm Firwire drive to Audio recording. I think the internal drive in the eMac is 5400 rpm. I'd also get loads of RAM. OS X LOVES Ram.

i have a superdrive in my g4, use it loads, g4 is great technology. wink.gif
7200rpm drives are going to be needed for audio, firewire is excellent and will allow communication with 64 devices, including other firewire macs...
i have a g4 and a tibook, firewire drive, 828, etc, in my front room,
all connected by firewire. tongue.gif
by holding down the g key from one of the computers on startup, and re-starting the other, i can use both macs' drives from the one computer, at all times, including of course, removables and peripherals! huh.gif
you're making a good move! cool.gif
