MIDI
Both USB and serial MIDI interfaces work effectively with Pro Tools.
Digidesign recommends using a serial MIDI interface, as they offer the
tightest possible MIDI timing. Serial MIDI interfaces require either a Mac
serial port or a qualified modem-to-serial port adapter. Digidesign
currently supports the GeeThree Stealth Port for G4 - AGP Video
(Sawtooth), Stealth Port for Dual Processor G4s and Griffin gPort II
installed in the modem port (thereby not using a PCI slot).
When using the GeeThree products with OS 9.0.4 the latest version of the
Stealth Port extension (v1.0.3) is required. It is available here:

Digidesign supports the following MIDI Interfaces for use with the 2001
models of Apple's G4s and Pro Tools® 5.1:
● MOTU Fastlane (USB)
● MIDIport32 2x2 (USB)
● AMT8 (USB/Serial)
While full testing will not be performed with older Pro Tools versions or
older CPUs, we do not anticipate problems using these MIDI Interfaces.
Dual Monitor Display Card
Digidesign has found only one configuration and card that appears to
reliably achieve full Pro Tools performance when two monitors are desired.
The card is called the Jeronimo 2000 by Appian. For information on
installation, which must be followed very closely, and to download the
required Mac driver for this card click here:

DSP Farm and SampleCell II Support:
The PCI Matchmaker chip on a DSP Farm must be rev QC or QE (check the
end of the line directly below “PCI Matchmaker” on the chip) to be
compatible. Cards with rev Q chips can be upgraded.
