Maybe I'M the idiot
I am quite new to the computer recording world. I don't even own a computer of my own for recording yet. I have a computer that my mother bought me to go to college years ago, but it is hardly good enough to support Windows 95 and the internet much less record. So I am going to buy a computer THIS THURSDAY!!!!!!! Plus, I live in Munich Germany and am no where near that computer that my mom gave me for high school graduation, and I need help before I
f--k up big time and buy something shitty. I have read almost everythread on this website. I know that I need certain spec to make it all work perfect. (well as close as I can get to perfect.) Here is the computer that I am planning to buy THIS THURSDAY!!!!
Pent III 866 MHz
128 MB RAM
40 GB Hard Drive
I will also add a 24-bit 96 Sound card (Delta 66 with the new Delta OMNI I/O audio interface, pre-amps, etc.. package)
I am going to use a Roland JV 1010 to generate the drum tracks and bass lines for my music and then play my guitar into the OMNI I/O. All using Audio Logic Platinum software to sequence it all. I am completely alone and entend to do this alone. So my questions... I have 2.
- Will Windows Millineum Edition work with all this? I know that everyone always says Win 98 is solid, the best etc... but the computer that I am looking at buying ONLY has win ME on it. Will EVERYTHING that I have mentioned work with WIN ME???
- Do I need (100% NEED!?!?!?!) a mixer? Is ther ANY way that I can hear the playback of my previously recorded MIDI tracks from my Roland JV 1010 while I play the guitar tracks and sing the vocals? I also already have a Tascam 424 Analogue portastudio casette recorder (4-track). Can I use the built in mixer on it? Please help guys.
Thanks,
Mike
