can i install "audigy 2zs platinum pro" on mac pro

Hi and welcome to Discussions,

first of: your english is very good, no problem with it 😉

Bigger problem: you can not use the Audigy in your Mac Pro.

The audigy is a PCI-card whereas the MAc Pro 'only' has PCI-E slots.
The card simply won't fit into these slots.

Sorry

thank you for your response but can anyone give advise on sound card that i can use with music programs like (Reason 4....) for example !!

From a quick googling on 'sound cards Mac Pro' only brought back RME internal PCI-E sound cards http://www.rme-audio.de/enproducts_overview_pci_express.php?page=content/products/en_products_overview_pci _expresslist#intern from whcih the HDSPe AIO sounds very interesting.
Another company would be M-Audio but to my knowledge they hadn't come out with a PCI-E card.

in windows i needed something called ASIO drive which will lower the response Time between MIDI Keyboard and the result sound

Mac OSX already includes all that your need (Called Core-Audio and Core-Midi) and in general the latency in OSX in far lower than in Windows.

however now i am so confused about the sound card should i choose .

From what I got reading around here, most seems to use external (USB or better FireWire connected) sound modules.

For my own private useage of Logic Studio I use the internal 'sound card' of my Mac Pro.

i need somthing tested and really work with me

Might be a good idea to head over to the Logic Studio Forum http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=231 where the real sound cracks are.

again thank you for your time

You're welcome anytime.
Hope it helps.

I recommend the M-Audio ProFire 2626 - $699 at most major musical retailers. Great latency response.
