I literally have identically the same exact system, and identically the same exact specs you mention here with only one exception. I'm using a mid 2012 mini, not a mid 2011. This however said, I find that the quality is absolutely gorgeous! I don't think you'll have any issues at all. I'm using an I5, 8 GB ram, and the internal stocked 500GB hard drive with Mavericks 10.9.5.

Is anyone using this kind of set up right now? I had a friend who used it with PT 8 successfully but he wasn’t into using busses, sends and a lot of plug ins. I would upgrade to a one TB 7200 drive and probably the same for an external. . -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Pro Tools Accessibility" group.
