I've done home multi-track recording for many years using a Win 7 quad core (Dell OptPlex 980) and Adobe Audition 3.0 and this has worked fine for my needs. Recently, my son-in-law gave me his old Win 7 dual core machine and I wanted to use it for multi-track recording but there is a noticeable latency (when I play my keyboard there is a half-second delay).
My question is this: will getting a dedicated sound card for the Win 7 dual core solve the latency problem?
My son has recommended these new USB mixers but will that solve the latency problem?
Economically, I can't afford a new machine and I need to keep my Win 7 quad core where it is (not move it to the new home studio).
Comments very appreciated.
