[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 708129, member: 21101"] The Mac uses Core Audio, rather than rely on drivers of any particular 'sound card' - meaning all the processing is done on the CPU - incidentally Vista now does the same thing. The issue with most PC sound cards was the driver. I have a 'lowly' MacBook with a 2ghz Core Duo, and most of my soft synths (the Logic synths, Korg Legacy Collection and a Yamaha CS80 by Arturia) all run on 256 samples without issue, that's around 5 msec latency, and barely use 20% of one core, even with effects. Make sure you update Logic Pro 8 to the latest version, because the original release had some performance issues. No additional hardware is needed. [/QUOTE]
