Re: Mac G4 midi software question

For sure go with the dual if you can swing it.  Why?  OSX *does* use a
dual processor. If you've got one and Digital Performer 4, which was
supposed to be already released (late 2002 release...) will be written
for OSX.  Also, I use DP3 in conjunction with a MOTU 828 and I really
like it.  It's POLAR loop module is a really great software loop tool. 
Remember, you can't have a computer that's too fast or too much memory.
