powerbook G4 & Live. as soon as i have the money i'll upgrade to a new macbook pro!

of course it goes without question that os x is by far the best music production platform. the best anything platform, actually ;)

anyway, there's pre-amp pedals or digital amp emulations to pre-amp guitars and record through line-in's (i guess you missed the discussion with liquidbass about it on the wall). i have an electro harmonix LPB2ube, roger linn adrenalinn2 and sherman filterbank that all do the job very well. each with their own character of course.

yep, audio interface. but my midi controller does both... i thought hiz were stereo, but maybe i'm wrong (well, it doesn't matter, it doesn't work :p )

yep, someone told me about pre-amp pedals too, and softwares like guitarrid. but, it's just a try, and i don't really want to spend money in something i would maybe not use anymore :)

anyway, i'm going to look for that topic by liquidbass! thanks for caring ;)
