Hello Friends! (Ouch...I meant "optimize"!)
I'm a newbie setting up a little home studio, and just ordered a Dell Inspiron (Amazon.com: Dell Inspiron 660s i660s-3850BK Desktop (Black): Computers & Accessories) 3.3ghz processor, 6 gb ram and 1tb, 7200 rpm hard drive loaded with Windows 8. I've never set a computer up for recording and was hoping someone here might be kind enough to provide me with instructions, or tell me where to find them. Any opinions on my choice of computers are also welcome. I'm not all that savvy so I did a little research and took a shot.
I guess I'm going through my second (or maybe third!) childhood and so treated myself to what I hope will be a fine computer for recording. I plan on using Reaper, by the way. Thanks in advance, for any help!
