Logic 6 Big Box, Reason 2.5 & M-audio Ozone, good combination or not? Options

Hi,

I'm looking at running the above on a 1GHz iMac with 768MB RAM. Am I along the right lines for 16-20 tracks of audio & MIDI?

Cheers folks,

Nep.

Hi all,

Thanks for the tips.

My copy of Logic has arrived, but in the installation guide it says make sure the drivers for your hardware are installed before you install Logic. While I wait for my interface to arrive, would I really be wrong to install Logic?

Surely you can add drivers/hardware at a later date, or you'd never be able to upgrade your gear???

Help me, 'cos I'm itching to have a play!

Cheers

Nep

synthetic and editbrain..

in MAS (midi/audio setup) for Panther, I can click on "test midi" and with the little note click on my MIDI device and it sends random data to it. When I play notes on my keyboard, nothing is seen in that setup. In Logic, nothing shows up in the transport bar, it says "NO MIDI" for both, in and out.

The firestation has clocking set for INT and EXT clocking source. I have no idea but could that be causing my problems? I absolutely hate MIDI did I forget to mention that? Keyboards and devices should just use USB for @#$% sakes.. Yes MIDI signaling over USB cables. So that when I plug my keyboard into the computer, it does it's Plug N Play and auto detects the keyboard, the settings. I mean if printers work like this, why can't keyboards?

Is there such a thing as midi auto detect? oh man I've gone so far off topic....it's scary. I think today I'm gonna return the FIREstation and try something else. Everyone says it's not the device, but I need MIDi working.... I'm tired of holding the phone in my ear and recording to my voice mail...
