so..
i was thinking about the timeline of the origin of the hardware..
and i said thats it.. im putting my digi 001 inside my B&W G3 450mhz
this machine has always felt zippy as hell in OS9.. and i was looking for forever to get a
g3 version of the stealth port for the b&W .. but i dont think thats going to happen anytime soon
and i dont feel like holding my breath.. so i decided to pull my megawolf serial pci from my mdd
i had been thinking of doing this also because the megawolf card is from around 1999. the time moreso
of hte b&W g3 rather then the mdd 1.25 (2003).
i then took it a step further and moved the digi-001 off the other MDD DP 867..
and its happily inside the b&W aswell..
seeing as both the megawolf + digi001 + the computer itself are all from 1999..
i just have a good feeling about this combination!!
on the mdd, it would sometimes not detect the megawolf romulus pci when booting
also, sometimes the digi001 adat light wouldnt light up and the card itself wouldnt show up
both are working 100% from first boot inside the b&w
i also plan on using the Studio 3 as my midi I/O via the megawolf romulus 2xserial pci card
beefing up the hard drive with a 30-60gb SSD, either IDE DOM or SATA with IDE converter (Screw the Sata pci card)
another thing ive done is removed the radeon 7000 PCI video (by sapphire, which is apparently an official mac card)
and replaced it with the original RAGE 128 GL PCI that the model shipped with..
