Hello guys,
My new USB 2.0 Audient iD22 works just fine with hackintosh :
32 samples @ 44.1 Khz on my current rig (and it was fine too with my old rig)
This soundcard just rock my world for a few weeks now. I was under 10.8.5 and I had to make a clean install when my old mobo died last...
Hi there,
It's been three years now and my old mobo died last week...
I went thru the last buying guide to change the cpu and the mobo : Z87HD3 and I5 4670K...
Everything works fine with Mavericks !
Hi there,
Working on a stable hack since I built it (specs under my avatar). It replaced an first gen mac pro who started to be limited (because of NI Komplete/Kore packages)
My soundcard is a TC Konnekt Live and my main DAW is Ableton Live.
Using various other virtual instruments and...
I own :
1 mbp 13 (for live/djing)
1 old macpro quad 2,66 (old production rig)
...
and the new "read my specs" Hack which works 3/4 hours a day (minimum) without a single glitch (new production rig)
Consequence: I'm going to sell my macpro (even if it's the best achieved computer I ever bought)
That's what I did... Works like a charm and far enough power for music production.
That's a weird choice...Velociraptor are known to be noisy and to run hot... (even if the things are far better than with the first generations)
I would go for a SSD OCZ Vertex 2E 90 Gb (3'5) as System drive and...
:clap:
I've planned to buy an external HD for my laptop backup... The price difference between the USB 2 and 3 is only 10€.
So I come back here as soon as I bought and tested it on my hack !
I'm in music production and I would like to give you extra advices.
If you put extra damping material in your case, fans are mandatory.
If I were you, I'd put at least 2 12cm fans on the case (CPU + rear/exhaust). If you rig still run hot, you might need to put an extra fan (on the front) to...
I guess you're talking about Vertex 1 series as the 2 series have the exact same controller you find in OWC drives.
All the other drives need a monthly maintenance routine (except Sandforce equipped and in a lesser extent Intel drives according to a lot of mac users)
you're welcome ;)
I prefer FW over USB for music purpose. If you only use FW port for the sound card, It will allow you to have a "dedicated" bandwidth and it's more reliable.
No problems here. I installed iworks, Ilife11, Logic studio 9 and many other apps, updated thru the apple updater and everything works fine (but my rig specs are closer to tony/macman/lnx2mac 's than yours)
What did you think ? You could achieve without a glitch something that peoples are...
:thumbup:
If you can spend a few more bucks, for less than 70€ more, you'll have a "silent" computer using specific additional components.
Heat sink : I would probably go for an aftermarket CPU cooler like the Scythe mugen 2 to achieve a better cooling and noiseless operation.
PSU : I...
