Digidesign says that G4 with speeds less than 800 Mhz will result in worse performance while using the 002/002r. I also read some threads on the DUC where people who exchanged the 001 to a 002r had worse performance on the very same sessions.
Can anybody explain why is that? Is it because it's Firewire, or does it have some processing overhead that the 001 doesn't have?
Just curious. Cheers, Andrés
