Hi everyone,
I am new to this site and i wondered if anybody could give me some advise on starting up making music on a Mac.I am wanting to run Reason 2.5 and was wondering weather a g4 400 mhtz would run it Ok, or would the 766 mhtz quicksilver models be more suited? sorry if i sound a little dumb but i am new to Macs.All the best, |

Hi, I'm using 2.0 on an 800mhz, 512mb G4 ibook and it's terrific. I can't see that it'd be a problem with what you're looking at using using as Reason is very light on for cpu demand. I don't know about the quicksilver, but the G4's quick. Only problems will be, as you'd expect, when you start loading up the number of tracks. i think the stereo strings are probably a drain. Extra RAM would be a good idea.

RAM is always a good idea

Reason is really good on almost any computer especially G4's and G5's... its very efficient but if you like to lots of samples then the more RAM you have.... the better.
