I'm in the market for a computer. I'm going mac. I'm taking an audio digital class at the New School, and the teach is helping people decide what they need to get. I've been told to get a duel proc mac, about 533 mhz. Now...about the program... what to get , what to get...we haven't looked at the programs yet. They mentioned Acid (not avail for mac) calkwalk, qbase, fraser, protool...yadda yaddaa... Have you any suggestions? I want to do loops, love drum n bass... I'd like to combine that, with a spice added, flavored with Fripp, Apex Twin, Reich, M. Monk, We, ambient / trancy / atmospheric stuff..going into beats. Least that's what I'm thinking. I just got 2 turntables, no microphone ;p (unless you count the piece of crap that I've had bought from Shit-Shack) and a mixer...I hope to encorp that with the mac. (side note: Got a Gemini mixer...someone told me that they are not known for their quality. I tried it out, and found that channel 1 is bad. I have to go back to Sam Ass and exchange it. Should I xchange it for some other brand?) thanx o'bunch, -nikki
