Hi everyone.

I'm using a G4 PowerBook (867 MHz, 1 Gig RAM) with Pro Tools LE 6.4 and Reason 2.5.

I find Pro Tools a good application to use. Interface is good, work flow (for me) is OK, and I am still learning how to better use it's features all the time. However, on my PowerBook, Pro Tools often grinds to a halt pretty quicky when using 3rd party plugins (e.g. ohmforce and camel audio plugs) and quicky becomes frustrating. I have been considering upgrading to iMac (or even PowerMac - but ofcourse money is an issue) and running Pro Tools 6.9. However, I am concerned that if I do this, I'll just find myself in the same position as I am now. That is, have brand new fast Mac (as was my PowerBook when I first bought it), and still only to run relatively few plug ins due to Pro Tools' supposedly poor CPU efficiently.

So firstly, just wanting to know if other users have found this assumption (upgrading to faster Mac, but also updating Pro Tools makes little difference to plug in count) to be true.

and secondly, should I hand over extra money and purchase Logic Pro 7 (I have read on other posts that it is more CPU efficient, especially when running Logic plugins) to compose in (using both Logic instruments, and Reason), and exporting audio files to Pro Tools. Would also be running Logic Pro 7 through Mbox.

Of course there's the problem of learning a new application, and also the decision of buying and iMac or PowerMac (especially considering Logic can take advantage of dual processors of PowerMac). I know Logic isn't going to make my music any better either, but the idea is to be less frustrated, and hopefully I will have no reason, or need to buy any 3rd party plugins again.

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
