I am not into programing at all but I think the upgrade would be a little more difficult to do then you explained, because they would be upgrading the PCI card and would also have to make the neccesary change for what ever the G5 processor requires. Would this upgrade not cost as much as the...
Its not irrelevent at all. Digi is designing software to run on panther with a G5. The 001 will not run on a g5 so why waste time on it. The 001 will still work fine with out updates why should they put so much focus on a single product in their line?
you cut off my quote Biff. It is an upgrade of the PCI AND OS. All their LE systems run on a serial connection except the 001. Not sure but I would imagine the software is a little bit different then the software for the 002, 002r or the mbox Now they can concentrate on just two versions of...
I think the MOTU deal is great but for the 001 its an upgrade in a PCI card and OS mabye the unit itself would need upgraded for it to work. they would have to get pretty involved for just one product in their line
What I mean is PCI is going to have to do something extrodinary to keep up with the easy of "plug adn Play" type devices. In their attempt they created a PCI-X that will not work with the 001
yes that was the point I was trying to make.
I was not attempting to turn this in to a technical...
why is what a factor. 001 is not compatible with the G5's PCI-X. If PC's end up with a similar upgrade the 001 will not be compatible with PC's either.
Who cares if it gets its power from the bus its connected to? I would if the bus it was connected to could not power the unit.
your right! But I was not really comparing speed. By power I meant it cannot power the 001. Look at all the new interfaces that are comming out.....why are you questioning it when I say "PCI needs to Keep up"
That link is not an accurate assesment of the situation at all. PCI interfaces are having to change to keep up with firewire and USB 2.0 (If it does not keep up then it will be a thing of the past). So much so that the new G5's PCI X does not produce enough power to run the DIGI001 interface...
yes I have.....and it only came with the mother board......but I got it for $40 cheaper then new and I downloaded and/or printed everything I needed from the manufacturers web site and bought some IDE cables from ebay for $1.75. I came out way ahead just check the Manufacturers web site to make...
well this question is in the MIDI forum so I am assuming that your using midi for the keys. Mbox does not have any MIDI capabilities. Pro Tools is not the strongest when it comes to editing MIDI. But for audio I think PT is the easiest to learn and most efficiant to use. As for it being a...
