Guest Andreas of Amygdala Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 I need a huge favor from someone. I would be thrilled if any of you mac-users could spare 10 minuttes to check out something for me. I wan't to know, if it possible to run Voyetra's Digital Orchestrator Pro in virtualPC... How many audiotracks can run simultanously, and does the program crash? Some MIDI on the side would be nice... Please, if you're able to (and have the time to) help - take a look at www.voyetra.com - there you can find a demo. Let me know if you're into it, either here, or mail me at buding@hotmail.com - immense thanks in advance Quote
Strumpling Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 sorry d00d, my old old old old Mac won't run it (i use this fancy PC now). If I could help you, I'd definitely sacrifice the 10 minutes, man. Sorry :-/ -=- Matt/Strumpling -=- anybody? Quote
Guest Andreas of Amygdala Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 Thanks anyway Matt - I'm sooo close to buying one... Just need to be sure! Quote
Guest phin Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Andreas- even if it doesnt run - gET THE MAC!!!!! I wonder if Ill ever have the money I had when I bought this pc again I go to Computer store all the time and just drool at the G4's hehheh just an opinion, but a thousand musicians cant be all wrong -mike Quote
Guest Andreas of Amygdala Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 You're right they can't! But I'm planning a live-job the ninth of feb., and it should be ready to run - so I need to make sure Buuut, it looks like I have to drag a stationary PC with me... Drat! Quote
Guest Elysium Project Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Andreas..... If you are planning to run Virtual PC on a Mac forget it...it's damn slow on any Mac even the 2 x 800 mhz Power PC G4.... I suggest you do your live gig on a PC and then switch to a Mac after you gig. Be aware that you need to change quite a lot of programs in order to be able to make music on your mac...don't make the mistake and think that Virtual PC will do the job for you...it won't! Quote
Guest Andreas of Amygdala Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 THANKS Elysium, that's what I needed to hear - though I'm sad, 'cuz I hoped it would work... Hmm, I'll have to think of something else then... I came REAL close to buying it today, but din't (pheew ) 'cuz I didn't know if it would do the job... Hmm, maybe later then - Thanks again Elysium, you saved my *ss Quote
Strumpling Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Macs kick ass! There's just not much software for them. Anybody seen those new iMacs? The ones that look like some kind of lamp with a monitor instead of a lampshade/bulb? Slick! Long Live Apple! -=- Matt/Strumpling -=- Macs kick ass Quote
Guest Elysium Project Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Not much software for Mac's Strumpling????? Mate get your facts straight...lol :-) Check this link out and read all about the apple myths! Then I am sure you will change your view about the software. Click here Quote
Guest akindo Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Elysium: "Be aware that you need to change quite a lot of programs in order to be able to make music on your mac...don't make the mistake and think that Virtual PC will do the job for you...it won't!" doesn't really fit with "Myth 2: Macs don’t work with PCs." does it? akindo Quote
Guest Elysium Project Posted January 23, 2002 Posted January 23, 2002 Well akindo Mac's do indeed work with Virtual PC it's just not as fast as one would like when it comes to music production - why? because the Mac has to run 2 systems at once - together with the midi data! But yes Mac's can simulate a PC completely! Can a PC simulate a Mac?? NO my friend! I think that got rid of myth 2 - don't you think so? By the way I am not trying to make a Mac against PC arguement! I was merely answering a question and commenting on strumbling's view that there's a lack of software for mac's.... that's all...It seem to me akindo that all you are trying to do is pick a fight...grow up! And yes it is common logic even for a child in a Kindergarden that a person need to change programs when he or she goes from a PC to a Mac! Quote
Guest Cujo Posted February 11, 2002 Posted February 11, 2002 even though you did it on PC.. that live gig, was pretty damn nice! too bad the party was closed early, but hell..... :-) i was pretty happy all the time,, pretty wasted as well. and people seemed to like my set as well... so IMO, it was a killer party :-) :-) :-))))))))))))) :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))))) Quote
