I am about to purchase a G5 Dual 1.8 (my first Mac) and an 828mkII and up until recently I was going to use CubaseSX2. After reading some rather bad reports on Cubase for G5 and Panther I've decided to think about other software. I was thinking maybe DP4 as it is dedicated to the Mac and seems to be a great application. I considered Logic but I've heard it takes complicated ways around easy functions (plus the price is a bit too high). Has anyone had much experience running DP4 on a G5 with Panther and the 828mkII? Any comments are welcome.
Thanks.
Kai

I am curious as to what are some examples of "complicated ways around easy functions".

I use Logic on panther on a G5 dual 2 GHz and it works very well. Logic, like performer, is also dedicated to the mac. Logic is also the first sequencer to be optimized for the Power Mac G5.

Yes, Logic is an excellent choice for the Mac user. It can be maddening to get your head round at first, but the Logic forums over at Sonikmatter have bailed me out on numerous occasions - the main man over there is Dave Bellingham, who wrote the Wizoo Logic Audio Workshop guide. Between that kind of online help and the manuals, you'll find getting started a much smoother process - and you won't have any of the bug nightmares that I guarantee you will have with SX. I have both and while I like many aspects of SX, I use Logic for everything. Rock. Solid.

Metro 6 will work in a G5 running Panther.

Be aware that the guys at mac kinda goofed on Panther's core midi, seems it will assign virtual instruments to channel 0, which, in effect, means that it don't exest. Fortunatly (until Mac gets that straightened up) Metro 6 has a work around.

Interesting note.. SF2. files can be used like a virtual instrument in Metro 6 sequencer.

Demos for Metro 6 are available here
