slim - sorry i cant help u on yer question, but the reason that im posting is that i just saw a post that u put up back in november describing your set-up and its exactly the same set-up that i came to a conclusion on after about two weeks of research. my intentions are to use the aardvark direct pro 24/96 to record and play-back, and n-track to mix. i'm planning on my computer to have P-III 800, 256 RAM and (2) hard drives, prob 20/30.
i just wanted to ask u how you've liked that set-up?
i'm also planning to use REASON use a software synth/sampler/drum machine - most of my source material will come from vinyl records, electric and acoustic guitars and vocal mic.
thanks man - good luck with yer question (could it be a bad mouse or touch pad?)
