Hi people!

are these worth buying
i run nuendo Wavesand some sample libraries . but some guy at guitar centre told me to buy the more expensive(wayyy more) drives with the oxford chip or Pro Tools and maybe some other stuff won't run on it.

is this a marketing ploy? or should i really consider just how important this . .oxford chip really is.

Hi.

I'm pretty familiar with the picky FW-1884 and it's need for a FW controller with a TI chipset.

It seems that the Belkin uses the TI chipset. Does anyone know if that's a safe buy, or is there another brand that I should be checking out?

Thanks,

pm

Hi, been a while since i posted on here,

I made a daw a year ago,

AMD 3200 64bit
K8V-X Mobo Via chipset, (which most of you said was garbage)
1G Cosair Value Ram
128 Ati Graphics Card
2 Maxtor HDD 120G & 200G
External DVD burner
Emu 1820 Soundcard

HI,
A dealer told me that more powerful chips bundled in the new generation of Accel cards are coming in close future, although the interfaces would stay the same.
Any rumour about it?
See, if Mix Systems lifetime was between 1998/2003
so, HD + HD Accel would be something like 2003/2007?

Thanks

Just an FYI to anyone looking into buying a Firepod that uses Windows...

CHECK YOUR FIREWIRE CHIPSET SETTINGS by going into My Computer, right click and select Properties. Look for the firewire card, and verify says either "TI" or "VIA" for the chipset.

If it says "NEC" based or anything involving "NEC", the firepod will most likely not work.

It looks like this has 2 processors and that makes it 4 times faster than the newest Powerbook 1.67! Did I make a mistake in buying a Powerbook 1.67 recently?

Would Intel chips reduce the price of Macs? If yes, by how much? Does anybody have an idea?

Also, is the Apple care plan ($350 or so) worth it especially since there's all these boards to help you out in case of problems?

Going to record on location.should I get one?

Hi for all!
