Anyone using Logic/PT with 1366 based Hackinotsh?

[aero++]

Hello there,
I was wondering if anyone here could report of their experience of using a 1366 based Hackintosh with Logic and/or Pro Tools.

Still trying to figure out if it's as compatible as the P55/H55 based rigs as the DAWs environment above are particularly finnicky and have to interact with tons of external software and hardware components

thanks!

Me , i use Logic pro 9.13 and protools 8.03 , no problems so far....

my guess is that as long as you're running up to date hardware/software and compatible firewire chipsets you should be fine.

pci/pcie pro tools interfaces. i have no idea whether they would work but my gut instinct is that they probably won't be able to.

i hope to be using a firewire digi 003 rack with my hackintosh when i get round to building one.

i'm not a massive pro tools user, so i'm probably going to get round to buying an apogee ensemble at some point for use with logic.

thanks for the replies

lulraep i know what you mean, however you can be moderately optimistic i've seen reports on this forum of people use their HD rigs with success on P55 base hackintoshes

I myself use regularly PT and a 003 on a old Q9400 hackintosh

the ensemble is better tho'

Just set up SL 10.6.3 Retail +10.6.6 combo upgrade disc on my system dualboot with (win7 RAID 0). Currently loading to 64bit kernel.
Pro Tools 9.0.1, M-Audio FTU-8R and Axiom Pro 61 MIDI controller.
It all works. I am going to wait and study on installing SL to a RAID array, with a seperate single disc to record to. So far, Pro Tools really sings on SL. I am liking the low latency of SL vs Win7.
Is it possible to install SL to a TRUE HARDWARE RAID array? Not software RAID.

Digidesign 003 & ProTools HD works flawlessly and MUUUUUCH faster/better than on the old Dual G5 Power Mac we were using. Running on my bros 1156 i7 860 P55UD3R setup

OSX 10.6.6 of course.

I'll be testing the exact same setup on my i7 950 & X58-USB3 shortly.

Check out Other World Computing's RAID PCI cards here. These guys are the Mac 3rd party go-to-guys.

no problems with PT 8 or Logic 9 on my i7 920 setup - running with a 003R.

Hi, which firewire card are you using to get the 003R work?
Thanks
