002 and power book - track count?

neopotato · 5th July 2003

Just wondering if anyone knows what type of track count you can get using a 002 rack with a 876 or higher Power Book?
Also any idea on plugs?

I am looking to get a system like this and want to know what its limitations will be. I need the power book as i want to keep mobile.

Any help will be apreciated

Matt.

the current versions of PTLE are up to 32 tracks. as far as i know that's a hard limit. but you do have inactive tracks (finally!) in the LE versions now, which means if you're clever about it you can have many tracks in your session but just have to combine to stems and de- and re-activate between different tracks to fine tune...

i don't know about plugs but am also curious to know as i'm looking at a similar system...

Is it just me or did viaspiaggia miss the question entirely ?

He sure did

I came all the way over here too. I wanted to know what the performance is like and how many tracks i can record at once (max 18 I know), and what plugs are like. I also think it will not be long till the new powerbooks will be available as the 15"876 is last years stock of ti. Then I will be 'goin mobile'

I need this info because I dont know what osX is like on CPU as well as PT6.x with new plugs for ten.

cheers anyone got any numbers.
