Opinions??????I'm getting a new computer for xmas and would like opinions on if you think this will be ok.
I record by myself, therefore only one track at a time ( except stereo drum machine ). My new computer is a Pent 4, 2.66 Ghz, 80 gig hard drive,with a soundblaster Audiogy (sp?) card. software is CEP.
I run everything through a new Yamaha MG 10/2 mixer and into the soundcard, and monitor the soundcard out through a home stereo reciever and sony MDR 7506 and MDR V6 headphones.
I been trying this on my old computer ( P2, 300Mhz ) 192 ram, which sucks cause I cant use any effects on the vocals cause the computer cant handle it.
Another issue is recording a track ( say vocal ) while listening to previous tracks....I cant get enough volume on the vocal to monitor it unless I open the mixer window and turn everthing else down so I can hear what I'm recording, then have to remix for the next track ( say a harmony part ) to hear myself....any ideas or is that just the way you have to do it ?
Anyway, my new computer should kick ass I hope.....
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks, Bubinski......
