 I don't know if the offer still stands, but Digidesing was (this winter) 
giving away CD's of ProTools3.4 along with the ProMix driver (that 
enables Protools to run without hardware). It only has EQ builtin, 
though. On a 7300/180 i was getting a solid 16 tracks (the realtime maximum 
allowed by ProMix). Check on their web site, i got mine in the mail by 
filling a form there.

Hi All,

Anyone know of any low cost multitrack audio recording software for 
PowerMacs , especially shareware ? Seems a pretty simple thing to 
implement  in faster PowerMacs,so I was surprised to not be able to  find 
any on the 'bahn.Digidesign's old $200 Session seems to have vanished.
In case anyone's interested,Macromedia's anounced it's discontinuing 
Deck-II,something about integrating the technology into some other 
multimedia product.
Digital Performer  and the like I cannot afford, given my already 
stretched <d. budget .

I'm also hoping Event electronics gets the Mac drivers for it's amazingly 
low cost PCI digital audio boards  done soon.They're at  
in case anyone wants to go bug them about it.

Thanks in advance,
Drew
