How do the AMD 64 chips perform when recording guitar and let's say chatting on AIM and surfing the web? I am considering buying the AMD 64 3700 chip, but I want some feedback from musicians on how well the recording process goes and how well multitasking goes. I was considering intel, but I...

cool, thanks for the tips. You guys know any informative tutorials on using the envelope?

I'll try that and keep listening to enya.

but I'm wondering how do I learn about it in the first place?

I'll try to explain to clearly, but please bear with me. I am trying to make one synth sample switch notes from let's say C to D. I was the notes to flow smoothly into each other so that the transition is smooth between the switch. I don't want to hear a sharp attack or a slow one either...

I might end up going with the intel, since I've heard more about it with music apps then amd. I need to focus on getting the right ram, videocard, soundcard, preamp, etc. A couple of friends told me not to go with M-audio because they aren't that good with audio recording...not sure if they...

1) How much money can you spend on this system: $1000-1500 2) Exactly how much recording are you looking to do? Full out productions or just using your computer as a theoretical 8 track Tascam where you can record riffs, solos, drum machine beats, etc for the purpose of making songs/decent...

well that stuff seems a bit too technical for me. I'm not the serious DAW user, I'm just a beginner for fun DAW user. I would like a computer for both games, recording/playing guitar, chatting, surfing web, etc. Recording/playing guitar will be my main thing, but games would also be of concern...

well I understand that you'd like to inform as much as possible and that calling would be a easy way for you, but I was wondering if emailing was an option or instant messaging on AIM,Yahoo or MSN was alright with you? I'll be honest and that is that I don't feel too comfortable talking over the...

well most critical would be recording applications of any kind. I don't have windows XP nor do I have a computer that can support the newer audio applications. I think recording guitar is my most important task that I want to perform on the PC, so a program like Cubase SX or Pro Tools, or even...

I am currently in the process of buying a PC. I want to get an Intel P4 3.2 GHZ HT LGA 775 or the AMD equivalent (or better for the same price). I am struggling to find any difference between AMD and Intel. All I hear are opinions and not facts or examples that support opinions. I want a PC to...

actually I haven't made a decision yet as to what amp I want to buy. I might buy an amp later in the summer because I've decided to invest in a new computer first. But the main thing I'm looking for in an amp is using the boss gt-8 to the fullest and of course I want a reliable loud amp with a...

yes, but can I just play in real-time as if the soundcard is my amp?

I'm just wondering, can I use the Delta 44 soundcard, and directly plug-in my guitar to just play? Can I play my guitar directly through soundcards and out of the speakers without any delay? Also are there any problems with electric guitar and delta 44? I want to be able to use plug-ins like...

how good is that compared to the dmp3 and any other mixer/preamp?

that's way out of my price range. I'm looking for a preamp that's even less than 100 bucks. As cheap as possible to plug my electric guitar in directly.

what if I buy a small mixer, will that work well as a preamp for the delta 44? How much do Omni's go for?

does that mean 1/4" inputs? sorry, I've been lacking in my recording terminology lately.

will the Delta 44 work good enough with viewing Dvd's, playing games, etc? If not, I was thinking about buying a separate cheaper SB Live card or something just for that if that's even possible...or use my onboard motherboard soundcard. I'll definitely check out the delta 44. Quick question: do...

I am wondering what are the better soundcards that are low-cost, that will let me record my electric guitar directly and mic'd on the amp? I've heard of brands such as M-Audio, Echo Mia, Layla, etc, but I have no clue what to get or what models to look for. How are the soundblasters for guitar...
