I am a Mac person FIRST and a PC person last. It would be great to be able to use ProntoProEdit on my Mac G4. Has anybody done this? If so how? Is it reliable? What extra software/harware is involved?

Much thanks to anyone that can reply

I don't know if the Pro works with Tonto. Do a search on Tonto to find where you can get it (or at least get more info on it).

Tonto is a ccf editor that runs on various OSes, including OSX. It doesn't run in the "Classic" MacOS.

Your other option is to get VirtualPC with a copy of Windows that ProntoProEdit will run on and go that route.

Since you have a G4, you'll also need a USB->Serial adapter. The main one I've seen success with is the Keyspan High-Speed USB/Serial adapter. I don't know if the "Stealth Serial Port" product (I believe from Griffin) will work with a Pronto.

There's much useful information in the archives if you search....

Best,
Brad
