Hi, i have some question to ask!.
Some time ago i bought Halion 5
Now that i have a Mac mini 2011, which came with 2gb of ram, i upgraded the ram to 16gb of ram 2 days ago( the mac mini is much faster, and now works perfect!).
the spec of the this mac is below:
intel core i5 2.3 ghz.
16gb ddr3 1333mhz.
intel hd3000 graphics
usb 2
firewire 800/400
512gb 5400 rpm harddisk.
osx lion.
-
My question is, can my mac mini handle Halion well, considering
my mac mini only has a 5400 rpm harddisk ?, will there be any drop out in audio, when using Halion on my mac mini ? ( using cubase element 7 64bit). -
do i need to buy an external harddrive with the following spec:
firewire 800, 7200 rpm, size 512-1tb, in order to get better performance with Halion , related streaming audio / sampleplayback ?.
3: or do i need to upgrade the internal hdd to a 7200 rpm ?.
4: My mac mini dosent have any external dvd drive, but i have a pc, which i installed Halion on the pc harddrive, can i copy the library to the mac mini internal drive or external drive, then i only need to install Halion 5 plugin etc, for cubase, but how do i configure Halion 5 to find the path for tbe library on mac ??.
I am planning to install Halion 5 on my mac as soon as possible !
