Re: Moral support needed: relevance of PT today

Yes. I run Live and Cuase with core audio drivers, no probs at all. The same would apply with Logic.

I have an opinion. What you claim above is absolute rubbish. I bought a PT's rig initially thinking the quality was better and the extra horsepower. 3-4 years ago this was important.
