Protools/Music Prod. Toolkit/max track count/Dual 1.8 G5

Hey Hey!

Can anyone advise more specifically on their experience with a Dual 1.8 G5 (original) and the ProTools Music Production Toolkit max track count they get?

I mean, when they say, \"not guaranteed to achieve maximum track count with Music Production Toolkit\", are we talking closer to 33 or closer to 47, or do other problems come up?

I could use the great track count, but I'm also interested in the convolution reverb, which I understand takes a lot of processing power. I'm also running a couple of UAD-1s and, with the original Dual 1.8, I have that AMD-8131 problem where it takes some processing power to route audio to and from the cards.

All this combined, am I just looking for trouble with a \"qualified, but...\" G5?

If so, then I'm doubly anxious about UAs deal with the crossgrade to PCI-e, because I'm going to need to upgrade my G5.

Thanks,
Archmart
