Hi All
I have a question ?
(i'm new to the midi life, but think it's the cat's meow!!)
My question how many of you midi user's actually use mac computers live other then a lap top
I want to try out my G3 and want to find out if some one else has used there's and found any problems

I've always had a Mac. I started out using Mark of the Unicorn (MOTU) FreeStyle, a MIDI sequencing program that isn't too expensive. That was in 1993 or 1994. I use Digital Performer now. FreeStyle does sequencing AND notation, so you can create sheet music of anything you play, or if you import a MIDI file, you can create sheet music from that, too.

I use both pc and mac. The mac is an old laptop that I use live with with a program called Master Tracks Pro. Works great live.

At home I have a pc with Cakewalk. More powerful but I don't want to carry my desk top around.

I'm using a iMac 500 G3 with Digital Performer 3.

I want a Macintosh. They're nice better than PC. But I don't know of any MIDI programs work with Mac.

A quick search showed most of the Steinberg programs are available for mac, Qbase etc. Also Band in a Box is a good starting midi program lets you create right away. And look at my post further up ... Master Tracks Pro is still available.

I would like to thank all who replyed to my question, Mac computors live.
we finally tryed out my G3 and with DP3 and it worked better than I thought.
I think I could Have gotten some better files, the ones I found kinda sucked
but did a good job! I guess you get what you pay for.
Again Thanks "Mac Rules"!!

I use a Mac in the studio, running DP4, Reason, Battery, Absynth, and other software synths, but I still keep a PC around for Acid and Gigasampler.
