Do you need someone to replace the caps or are you comfortable doing the job yourself? Send me a private message if you need assistance. 73s de Phreakout. :rambo:

Hardware sequencers are pretty tight, it's true. What model/s are you considering? If you want to keep computer-style sequencing as an option, have you considered an Atari 540 or …

check your jumper settings, that seemed to work for me: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=12672

I recently received an old 400mhz blue and white g3 from someone and intended to use if for some pre-OSX stuff I have. I managed to get it to start up, and was able to boot from th…

Turned out to be leaky caps! Cleaned it up and it works. But I snapped one cap off so I ordered a set of caps to replace 'em all.

I want to get down to a couple of ms of MIDI jitter. So far I'm at about 5ms with my computer setup. I'm now only recording simple note on/off events to make sure nothing is cloggi…

You will be limited to the number of tracks you can run on a Classic. Performer is the best of the lot in those days. But you will run into the same problem if try to jam too much …

You mean Mac OS 8? Sure. A 9600 can even still do 7.x, the last Power Mac that could. Click to expand... The 9600 requires 7.6.1. You can't even use a 7.6 install disc, it has …

Because MIDI latency and jitter on modern computers is a problem. I've been contemplating in either get a dedicated hardware MIDI sequencer or an old Mac for MIDI sequencing, so I …

i too have one but its working without any flaw

My 8500 (RIP) did very well with 8.1, 8.6, and 9.1. Did badly with 8.5 and 9.0.4. I would probably recommend 8.6.

Where's the button to vote "Both, with MOL"? Click to expand... You have to have at least a minimal install of 9.x.x to run BootX so having an option for both seemed redundant.…

Where's the button to vote "Both, with MOL"?

I vote 9.1 due to it being mac and there is classilla for web surfing. I did try Ubuntu on a Dell but the disk would not load, and Kubuntu worked but it sucked. I really did not l…

Apparently, they all STILL require foolin' around waaay more than I want to do! BLEH! I'll just keep working on my X86/Radius 81/110 ubuntuGIMPbox™ Hack! )

The biggest problem I had was in copying the kernel and ramdisk from the installed system to the Mac OS partition. I didn't have a small HFS partition and Linux can't write to HFS+…

Ah, good. 9.2.2 is needed for the last update to the ATi drivers so I just hoped it could be done. I've also heard that 9.2.x is faster than 9.1. So now I just have to get OS9Helpe…

Cool, I didn't realize that there was an easy install version of ubuntu for PPCs! AFAIKnew, they all required foolin' around waaay more than I wanted to do. Will it run on a 6500/G…

I like Kubuntu on my Clamshell, it gave the iBook new life, albeit being a bit buggered up

Thanks for the replies, guys. The iBook seems to work when it wants, but so far its doing what I've asked it to do, I just wish it would stop doing these random "bombs". I might co…

My 9500 and 9600 both have Sonnet G4/800 cards and work just fine in 9.2.2. Also have a G3/450 in an 8600/200 that works fine in both 9.1 and 9.2.2.

I tried Ubuntu a couple of times on my iBook and iMac over the years. It's been a while but I think I had video problems with both (the iMac for sure). Kubuntu especially was very …

Could just be the drivers were not tested in OS 9.2.x and they don't feel like taking returns or testing for that OS.
