Re: Thinking of dumping PT HD and going with Symphony 64 PCI-e and two 8-cores...

I have looked into it and my assumption is you have PCI rather than  
PCIe and Im spot on with my estimations
I think you gain nothings by moving to Apogee --much better to use  
Logic 8 TDM
Personally Im going to buy a used 192 and HD2 PCIe system now that  
prices are down -it would cost me much less than the Apogee
