A SCSI (RAID) card with a very fast SCSI hard drive will help, sure. > 1. Will USB adapter works fine with MTP AV if I need to hook it up to a > G4? (My MTP AV is not the new USB type) Nope. Either use something like an Stealth G3 or gPort (you will loose the internal modem) or use a USB MIDI interface. > 2. Is the audiowerk8 card compatible with Digital Performer? Yes, I checked the Audiowerk ASIO driver with DP 2.5 and it worked fine. BTW: I just put a new version of the ASIO driver on www.emagic.de, it finally should work with Mac OS <8.5 and now also has support for Metro5 (a work around for a bug in Metro...). The text on the web page is not updated, but the driver is new - believe me. BTW2: I also put a new version of the SoundManager driver on the web. It now works fine with 3 Audiowerk8 and all 12 stereo outputs at the same time (with the right software)! > 3.

Yes, Logic doesn't check for applications of other vendors and refuses to work, when they are installed on the same machine :-) MMM -- Markus Fritze Emagic Soft- und Hardware GmbH <http://www.emagic.de>; Chief Developer New Technology Integration, MacOS
