Well, I just gave 'em my credit card.

I'm getting:

• G5 dualproc 1.8 w 1.256 RAM 60+120G HD
• MOTU 896HD
• DP 4.1.2 (upgrade from Perf)

I will need advice from y'all as I move my dinosaur analog ass into the digital age. Any thoughts?

Here's the rest of my setup:

Space: 4000 cubic feet single room with cathedral ceilings, Ethan Weiner bass traps, and OC703 absorption

Mics: Neumann U89, 2 X Crown cm700s, SM57, etc...

Pres: Demeter, Art, Mackie 1202

Outboard: RNC, dbx 166, lexi lxp-1, Alesis garbage

Monitors: Audix 1As; Hafler 200

Misc: Yammy promix01 (MOTU control surface?), Tascam DAT machine (for digital conversions?), ADAT blackface (for sharing tracks with buddies?)

MIDI: Roland D-50, D-550, U-220, MKS-7; Korg prophecy, X5; Emu ESI-32; Peavy Spectrum Organ w/ Motion Sound rotary speaker; Yammy P50

Gits: '76 Tele deluxe, ibanez strat copy, Takamine acoustic; Mesa Boogie DC-2 amp

Crap: Fostex R2R, brother's drumset, lots and lots of ancient sound garbling stuff and miles of wire

Then I have two next-door neighbors with equivalent or better setups.

Any thoughts?
