What kind of Mac do you have?
Most of them come ready-to-roll with a pretty dandy sound interface.
All except the Quicksilver Towers.
MOTU has a good interface.
Edirol has some good Analog-to-digital interfaces.
What sound a will you be using? _________________ DBCooperVO.com

I'm looking at getting the G5. I'm really just in the investigation stages. I was weened on Mac....An old 512 was my first computer. It was built by a chop shop that added a fan and hard drive. Ohh those were the days...what would we ever do to fill a big 20mb drive???
So I'm not real sure about software (audio interface) nor the sound card.
Thanks!

I should note, that's a G5 tower, perhaps dual proc. But more than likely single proc.

You'll see at Apple.com the specs for the new G5's have:
Optical digital audio input, optical digital audio output, analog audio input, analog audio output, front headphone minijack and speaker
You won't need a card unless your sound editing a calls for a proprietary interface. _________________ DBCooperVO.com
