So I've been doing some digital recording on my desktop computer. It's a dell, and 5 years old, and that's all I know about it. I know very little about computers other then their functions. I'll admit that it is not a very good computer but it's all I've got.
Last night I had recorded a number of tracks and started adding effects, EQ and compression. I played back my song and noticed some crackling in the audio(during a light single guitar part) once the whole band comes in it all goes crap. It lags and skips and almost seems to freeze.
I'm assuming the obvious that it's something with my computer that can't seem to handle all those tracks being played at once.
What would be causing this issue? Is there something that needs to be upgraded?
