Mac pro configuration for use in a sound studio
Hey,
for a college of mine I have to configure a MacPro, which will be used in a recording studio. I've thought of chosing a MacPro with two 2,26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon "Nehalem", 16 GB RAM, 2 x 1TB drives and 3x NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512MB. This system will be the basis of all recording and mixing issues. He'll probably use Cubase 5, and a lot of plug-ins, etc. Additionally we think about using as many screens as possible. Due to a lack of a window between the recording and the mixing room, we have to enable communication via two webcams and some additional screens. Would it be possible to use 4 screens with 3 graphic cards and to spread the signals of the two webcams to two different preset screens.
Thanks for the information, so far
