    Logic Express 7 and PowerBook G4 1.33 GHz

    Hello, I recently purchased a 12" PowerBook G4 1.33 GHz computer, 256 RAM, and started fiddling around in GarageBand. I was shocked, however, at how easily GarageBand gets overwhelmed by playing a couple loops and a couple software instruments with basic effects! I was thinking of upgrading...

    good use for extra computer?

    Hello, I recently upgraded from an old Indigo 400 MHz G3 iMac to a 12" PowerBook. I was planning on selling the iMac to the highest bidder, but is there any home-studio-type use I could put it to that would be worth more than the few hundred dollars i might get from it? Thanks, Mike

    Cheap Mac MIDI software?

    Hello all, What are folks' recommendations for inexpensive Mac sequencing software? I'm looking for something that (ideally) can do MIDI and audio, and maybe work with software instruments as well (since I'm using a fairly old Korg N264, and the French Horn sound leaves much to be desired...)...

    does this mix "work"?

    Hi all, I have a piece from my demo reel at the following link. I'm fairly new at home recording, and it's one of my earlier attempts at mixing in MIDI and then recording the final output to stereo audio and tweaking that. Does this mix "work," or feel like it needs more spit and polish...

    Mixing head-scratcher

    Hi all, I'm currently working on this little demo, and I'm having problems mixing it to my satisfaction. I'm fairly new to mixing and EQ and have been trying to boost frequencies on various tracks in different ranges to help them pop out (the melody just gets lost, no matter where I boost it or...

    getting from Cubase to CD

    Hi all, I'm trying to record a Cubase MIDI/audio file onto CD, and it's not as easy as i'd thought. I'm quite new to computer recording, and may be missing necessary gear. I can record the output from my hardware MIDI keyboard to a mini disc, and then transfer that via an 1/8 inch cord back...
