VSTI and MAC

Hexfix93 · 6th April 2005

So if i use cubase on the mac, do regular vstis from the pc work on the mac? or do you have to get mac versions of the vstis?

If i go mac are all my VSTIS useless on the mac?

Yes, you'll have to switch to mac-platform vsti's...bummer...
But when it comes to vsti's, I'd stay on PC, or buy a dedicated PC
for vsti and samplers; you have much more choice and compatibility.
I would consider buying a mac for audio and a pc for midi.
At least, that's what I did, and it works like a charm!
