Chris, FYI the PCI 324 does work under Tiger driver version 1.08. Just do not use the card for system audio e.g. QT, iTunes etc except for temporary purposes. Thank you for that info! I just went back to Panther and recorded some tracks today, and I realize that what many have told me is true: my s...

I can't use Leopard yet because it's not Sibelius ready...although I don't neessarily need to run Sibelius on my recording computer.

After much research and good advice from all concerned, I'll be looking to upgrade the whole shebang. Money will definitely be an object, though, so... I'd like to go with an iMac, since I have three older ones (two at home, one in the office) and they've all been great. How fast a machine should I ...

I think you're being lulled into a false sense of security, but I'll let you figure that out on your own. We've done our best to explain that your G4 ain't gonna be a lotta fun. :( But one thing I really do want to get clear to you is that your 324 card is going to cause problems. Most people (myse...

I seem to have stirred up a hornet's nest...heh. :oops: At any rate, if DP 5.13 is likely to be Tiger stable, and if (as several have said) it should run okay on my old machine (which it looks like I can spend $35 on and then do installs of software), then the DP upgrade sounds reasonable...especial...

Wow - thanks for all of the replies, guys. To answer some of your questions: I'm afraid of the expense of having to buy not only a new computer, but also a new interface. I have three other Macs I use on a regular basis: a 20" G4 "iLamp" model (home), a 17" G5 iMac (office), and ...

Hi everyone. I took a hiatus from multitrack recording for a few years and have been doing direct to 2-track recording in the meanwhile. Now it looks like I'll be coming back to multitracking this summer, and would like to upgrade my DP system before then. Right now, I have DP4.? on a G4 800 tower w...

I just upgraded my old G4 800 quicksilver to Tiger recently. An older partition still has on older version of OSX running DP4, but I'd like to upgrade now while I still can. This machine is for audio only. What stable version of DP should I upgrade to, and what is it likely to cost to upgrade from D...

You should do the following. ••• Spend the $99 on Peak LE ••• Spend the money that you would end up spending on the full blown version of Peak and purchase Izotope's Ozone3. If you do this, the single FX insert point will never be an issue, and you'll have an amazing Plug-in/Mastering Suite for any...

Worked a bit more with the DSP Quattro demo last night and was able to make some pretty good headway. The price is certainly right! From the OSX Audio boards I gather that quite a few people are using this program. Does it have any options for "batch processing"? (I'm assuming this means a...

I downloaded the demos of both. DSP quattro seems to have a lot more plugs, but I don't quite feel comfortable with the non-visual (non-graphic?) layout of them. I got good results out of the Peak LE demo, but do I understand correctly that there is only one insert point on the LE program, meaning t...

Thanks for the quick response! I completely agree about the piano - I brightened it it too much in an effort to make it cut through the drums. I like the bass sound on the bass solo (but then I'm the bassist, so I would say that... :wink: ), but can see how some more bottom end could be useful with ...

http://fretshop.com/Durrl/I%20Fall%20In%20Love%20Too%20Easily.mp3 DP 4.0, all six channels at once through a MOTU 1224. The main limitation was that all instruments were (of necessity) recorded in the same room. I think it came out pretty well, but I think some of the tom and snare hits are a little...

I do a lot of live recording of my performances, all the moreso since getting an Edirol R-09 recorder. It produces a wonderful basic recording, and loads into the computer in a flash. If the tracks are balanced and clean sounding, I just basically dump them into an iTunes folder and burn a CD for th...

Thank you! I kinda hoped that was the case...but do I need to do anything special to designate that either the Jaguar or Tiger partion can be the startup drive (so that they are switchable)?
