[QUOTE="jstevewhite, post: 1018112, member: 147314"] No, you're right, I misinterpreted your advice. My bad. I thought you were talking about actually acquiring real-world audio, not softsynths. After re-reading, I understand. You're absolutely right that it's a completely different thing, and your statement is correct as stated. With Logic Studio 9, freeze is a button click away, and performs essentially the same thing, though, so it's six of one and... Sorry I wasn't paying attention. Right. I get it now. Seems clean enough. I still like Freeze better - or actually, I like having all my tracks *live* :D. But yeah, makes a lot of sense. Yeah, I've read that SATA spindles can benchmark at upwards of 100mb/sec on a single drive. I'm not sure what magic they're doing to get those numbers, but I know that in the server world, we'd LOVE to get that kind of speed, but it just doesn't happen. XBench says my internal iMac drive will do 70MB/sec for 256k blocks. It's great that it benches that way, but it just won't actually deliver. Maybe if I deleted everything on it each time :D. I think your assessment is exactly on target - record to a different drive than you boot from. When I take my MBP in the field for recording, I have a 2.5" 7200RPM FW800 drive I record to. Sorry again for my misinterpretation. -Steve [/QUOTE]
