Hi all...new to the forum & I'm kind of new to the whole world of computer recording too, coming from more of a tape & then digital 16 track DAW background...but pretty soon I'm going to have a s/h g4 Powermac ( 450 cpu, 512 ram) to play with.
I'm going to run ProTools Free on it ( can't afford full blown PT just yet) & I have a little audioBuddy pre. I'm also thinking about getting a better soundcard - something like the Audiophile 2496. So...will this card be compatible with my set-up? Oh...and my Mac has OS X & Panther installed, but ProTools Free only works on OS9 so I'm pretty sure I'll have to install that & remove OSX...unless it'll run in Classic mode. Any tips, advice, etc will be gratefully received!! Thanks.. |

For your own sake, don't get stuck on the idea of Pro Tools - it really is not the only game in town. Lots of other interfaces are also available that may come with, for instance, Cubase LE. The Mbox 2 is arguably the worst/dumbest product release of the past three years - check the threads on here.
That said, what you've got already is perfectly adequate for knocking up some cool 8-track audio recordings - more if you bounce tracks and go easy on the FX. Remember Sgt Pepper was recorded on 8 tracks etc etc. You can find your DAW feet this way, then explore more complicated options in the future. They all work the same way, really, so switching to something else - Logic, Cubase, Live, Nuendo, whatever - won't really phase you. It's no different from recording on a digital 16-track. Enjoy! |
