I am wanting to purchase the 002 rack and pair it with my 12" PowerBook. My PB has 640 RAM, 867mhz and a 40-gig HD. I will be purchasing a 80-gig external HD. I plan to be recording full live bands. I would like to know if anyone else has tried this yet and how well did work? Will I need to add anything into my setup? I don't plan on using many plug-ins during the recording. Most plug-ins will be added during the editing and mixing. Will this allow me to use all 8 ins at the same time?
I have done a fair amount of recording in studio and on a G4 tower with 001 and a little bit with a borrowed Mbox on my PB, but I yet to test it with any hard core recording. I would love to know how well it will stand up and or what I will need to add? Thanks for any advice or help.

I use a G4 800mhz Powermac with a MOTU 828 and a Lacie 120GB Fire Wire Hard Drive. I bought the external drive recently and I have noticed a few teething problems, notably more frequent crashes, although the quality of the recordings has been fine. I gather there may be conflicts between the 828 and the Lacie which stem from both using the Firewire protocol. As far as I know DIGI 002 also uses Firewire, so it might be worth checking with digidesign or with lacie as to whether such problems are common. I should add that it has been 8 months since I last defragmented my system drive, and this may also be a source of trouble. Hope that helps man...
P.s. if anyone else has had problems of a similar nature I would love to know, thanks... |
