Computer Hardware : G5 compatibility and Delta PCI card upgrade program - macmusicM-Audio has been working directly with Apple to ensure that all of the company's PCI-based products will be compatible with the PCI-X architecture introduced with the Power Mac G5. Delta models being redesigned for G5 compatibility include Audiophile 2496, Delta 1010, Delta 44, Delta 66, and Delta 1010LT. (The critically acclaimed Revolution 7.1 consumer surround sound card is already PCI-X compatible.)

The original versions of M-Audio Delta cards operated on 5 volts as supplied by the original PCI bus standard. The newly revised cards are PCI 2.2 compliant (3.3 volts) and universally keyed, allowing compatibility with 64-bit PCI-X standards on all Power Mac G5s. On-board sensing technology will also allow the new Delta cards to be backwards compatible to work in 32-bit 5-volt PCI syste ...

Music Software : Digidesign + Panther: Warning !! - macmusicI was talking about the upcoming compatibility issues between Digidesign and G5 systems with Panther. It seems to me that some major changes need to be taken under consideration in light of Digidesign's current three step calendar:

- phase 1: (October 2003) Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools|HD Accel systems will feature G5 compatibility but only on OS 10.2.7.

- phase 2: (mid-November 2003) Digi 002, Digi 002 Rack, and Mbox support for G5 compatibility for (with caution !!!) OS 10.3 Panther.

- phase 3: (early 2004) Pro Tools|24 MIX G5 compatibility for (again, with caution!!!) OS 10.3 Panther.

I have tested a Digi 002 and Pro Tools with Panther (final development version), and trust me: it does not work. Sadly, others have experienced the same thing as well...

So, dear Dididesign ...

Audio Hardware : AES: Filter with Electro Harmonics… and a Comp - macmusicHeard thru the grapevine (thanks to the grapeviners ;), shown on pics somewhere on the net, EH is about to release (when?) a real analogue filter into a 3U rack. the designer behind is Mike Beigel (Mr Mutron Bi-Phase). The Bi-Filter is a 2 filters (switchable parallel/serial) with LFO and envelope follower. Price TBA but supposed to be reasonable.

Also on the booth is a big rack named NY-2A (ain't the AES in NYC?) a 2 channels compressor… There's glowing things inside but sorry no detail right now…
