I am new to the world of Macs and music, and I'm looking for some advice. I currnetly have a decent sized home studio that I have been assembling for the last few years, and I have been using an Atari (yeah... I know) for all my midi sequencing, but I really want to make the move to Mac. I have alot of midi gear, and I need some help finding a decent system for what I will be doing. I have an older performa 6400 running os 9.1 with a Sonnet G3 processor upgrade that I use as my internet connection. I really don't want to put this in my studio, due to ram issues, so I'm looking to maybe buy a beige G3. (I'm a poor musician, so I don't want to spend a whole lot of money to get started) I have a Motu MTPII serial interface, but no software other than ProTools free
;) do any of you out there have any tips that could help me out? I would definately appreciate any feedback that wil point me in the right direction. thanks in advance, Temple you can e-mail me at cubedmusic@earthlink.net |

will you be using outboard midi gear, or will you be using virtual instruments?
if using outboard gear it should be fine. it should be fine with audio also. i guess you could buy a firewire drive later to use for audio tracks. seems like you have the right idea to get some good use out of older equiptment. good luck. G3 tower will work especially if you are doing outboard midi modules. see if there is a G4 400 somewhere. you know a friend of mine has one that is in mint condition i will ask him if he is thinking of upgrading. happy recording, editbrain |
