Thanks Frodo. I will experiment with computer placement, the base station settings and also give Apple a call. I thought I read somewhere on this board that it takes a week or so for Airport cards to calibrate properly to full capacity? Sounds strange to me.

It's Here!! It's here!!!!! I just received my new MAC PRO 8 core, 2.8GHZ!! It's been so long since I did the original installs on my G4 (in like 1999) that I can't even remember what the best sequence is for doing clean installs on EVERTHING from DP 5, MACH 5, EZ drummer, various drivers etc. In par...

Thanks Frodo! I actually just had an Airport card installed today and it works fine except I notice the reception is not as good as I had on my G4. Only difference with the G4 configuration is that I needed a external receiver?? transmitter?? unit that plugged into a USB port. Does that type produce...

I just purchased a new MAC Pro 8 core 2.8GHZ and am trying to find the simplest way to connect to the internet for my situation. On my old G4 Mac, I ran wireless from my wifes PC using an Airport card. Now we're considering moving her office to the other end of the house away from my studio. Questio...

I am seeking advice as I'm planning to upgrade my severely outdated G4 400MHZ purchased in 2001 to a Mac Pro soon. I'm currently running DP 4.12 and use MACH Five and EZ drummer for drum tracks. I primarily record audio as a guitarist/bassist. I realize i will need to upgrade DP however a tech at th...

Thanks Shooshie. I'll give it a try. I'll just run the L & R RCA audio out from the cassette deck split to a 1/4" stereo jack into my Motu 828's input and see how DP handles it. If my G4 400mhz chokes on all the audio, I'll wait until I purchase a Mac Pro xeon dual 2.66.

Thanks again

Does anyone have a quick way, (with reasonable qualtiy) to convert old audio from cassette tapes? I have some old band tapes from the mid-late 80's that I would like to convert to digital before they degrade any further. I've inputed the audio from one tape years ago through my Mackie 1604 VLZ Pro m...

I'm finally needing to upgrade my old circ. 2000 era G4 400MHZ single processor w/ 1.3GHZ RAM and I'm not sure which way to go. Anyone aware of compatibilty issues with DP (I'm still running 4.12 but willing to upgrade) and the new Microsoft Xeon processors in the MAC Pro's? I'm also using MACH Five...
