i just got into computerized recording. i got a free version of Digital Performer 3.11 from a friend, bought a motu 828mkii (upgraded to a 896 hd because of guitar center advice but am going back to the 828), and am using my roomates g4 mac.
i'm a pc guy though, and my roomates mac is a temporary solution that i need to fix.
cheapest macs are $1300 g4 (new) + monitor $300
i can get a very fast pc for 1300but then i have to buy software. also the motu units are firewire and although i hear pc's can run firewire i haven't seen any firewire equipped pcs, so would i need to change the motu for something else?
anyone have any advice for a newbie?
