Thanks Dave,

this is helpful. You have potentially stopped me putting too much energy into dead ends... and sort of what I was expecting / dreading. I have an old firewire card from my last build but they seem to have changed the format of the pci slots on motherboards so the old one doesnt fit.

I would just have loved to stagger some of the expenses a bit. (fat chance!)

Too much to research all at once...and looking at PT upgrade options makes my heart sink a bit. Yeah you never know what new features might help lift your game...

Two months ago I had a workflow, software/hardware I understood and I was creative.....(hits the wall)
