Hi all, I'm sure someone on either of these lists can enlighten me... The place I work at is liquidating all Mac's (we got a memo from our parent company that all employees WILL standardize on PC/Windows platforms!). Anyway I see this as a good opportunity to obtain another sequencer platform to drive the MIDI-->CV converters for my analog stuff (so there's my analog content HAH!). So what's the best sequencer/Mac setup, given the selection: SE 30 8Meg/100Meg w/ Radius tilt-o monitor, SE 30 same without Radius, IIsi, IIci, IIcx, SE, Classic, Classic II. Just to make everybody really jealous the SE30's are $50, the II's are $100, and the SE/Classic/Classic II's are $25. There's about a dozen of each, they all have keyboards/mouses, and they all work. One per employee so don't you get any ideas out there. We're having a lottery on Monday for these but we do get to list our preferences in order. So - do I need slots? do I need a good power supply? is a serial port good enough for a MOTU box or whatever? how about screen size? what's the cool setup? My goal is cheap. I already have a Pentium/90 with 7 MIDI ins & outs and Cakewalk Pro which is a very gnarly system. All I want is a slave sequencer, not a master system. Any advice would be much appreciated. Sorry about the binary content but I need to fill out the form today. Thanks! - Gene xxxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx
