The answer is simple ... 001 cards do not work on a G5. And as soon as the G4 stops shipping in the future, newer versions of PT will not work on a G4


But they are still shipping G4's. People are still using G4's.
So it makes no sense.

I've seen recently someone using a NuBus PT system. His system is no longer supported.

What were we talking about?

We were talking about systems that are still being shipped and sold. Clearly NuBus Mac's do not fall under that category.

Please pay attention.

Henchie! How are your 5 Fairchilds? I'm paying attention. I was just checking how far back you hated the empire.

BTW, how's support going on the Fairchild side?

cheers!

Let's see.  Digi dropped development (NOT support) for PCI hardware running with Pro Tools LE.

They currently sell only USB and Firewire interfaces for Pro Tools LE.

Two years ago people were bitching that Digi didn't have a Firewire interface for Pro Tools LE.

None of their competitors have PCI interfaces or the resulting driver development overhead and complexity.

They're going to spend less time in legacy driver development and maintenance that has precisely no value to new customers, and put those resources into improving the Pro Tools application instead.

You're right.  It makes absolutely no sense.

No problem on the support sied. And they're still going strong. Haven't broken down once.

Hey Mark-

I know this is getting off topic here, but can Fairlights (Other than the new Dream system) directly import AIFF files yet?  A terrific post house I send music files to still can't import AIFF files on their mfx (?) systems.  Is there an update for this?

I think so, with the latest software update.
