Could anyone tell me how well Pulsar runs on MAC. Any major issues or problems. How is stability? Have a PC and going to get MAC in near future.

My G4 400 runs perfect with Pulsar II. However i've read about problems with the new G4:s.

You will need a big chunk of RAM. I have 576 mb myself.Tried with 320 and could'nt get it to work.I use Pulsar with Logic.
And don't buy the STS 4000, it doesn't sound very good for the moment.
The PCI performance on the Macs isn't as good as some of the PC:s. It's not a problem but you can't use a lot of reverbs.

hello i have a mac g3 blue 384mo ram,
I make run vst5 and pulsar2
but as jupiter8 says you will need lot of ram
cause pulsar is taking lot of ram on my os8.6
system
I have some problems but it is ok in 10 hours
of studio the g3 is stopping 1 or 2 time
I dont know why maybe cause my projects are
loud(50 audio tracks in vst+8 effects plug in, and pulsar dsp at the limit!!!!)
thats all i can say about that bye
