Greetings
I am trying to config a live setup and I want to use soft synths with logic or Ableton live.
I have a G5 dual 1.8 at home that I could use on stage but not sure how road worthy it would be.
Just to run a couple of soft synths would a MAC mini do the job?
I Dont really want to get into the expense on a laptop.

a mini would work decently - they are the same processor as my powerbook i use on stage. But i know a guy who performs with a G5 - he lays it down on its side, uses it as a table, and has a little tiny display - the ones for the backseats of cars for watching movies - that he puts on top of it on a little stand, along with his interface/control surface and other stuff. He runs video and audio from it. pretty cool.

Marathon do a racking kit for the G5 so you culd put it into a flightcase..The only problem is that you have to cut the handles off wit h a hacksaw!! A bit too permanent for my liking.
You can always 'freeze' tracks and ease the load if you're not going to be fiddling with them live
