you are gonna push it a bit, but i think you could probably get away with it.

so should I be looking for More RAM ya think?
or faster CPU?

what is the slowest (CPU) , smallest (RAM), I should look for?

Should this be in the laptop section? Can I move it?


Thank's in advance for your input.

id like to see a half gig of ram and a bigger hd if possible, but thats just me.  i think 880mhz would be fine though.  bigger is always better in terms of computers, but if all you are gonna be doing is taping you will be fine- i assume you mean a p3 or p4

with 24bit I'd be looking to get as much HD space as possible...

ya I dont really want to do anything but tape with it. I have a pretty Nice Home Pc already, and Im not into lurking at starbucks  :D  

It just appears to be "a bit" better than both DAT and the JB3


thank's for the input.

Apparently my Firewire410 will do 24/192, as soon as I get my hard drive upgraded (putting in an 80 gig in the next few days) I'll do some tests. ;)

I have a Celeron 350 w/196MB & a 4GB hard drive and have had no problems doing 24/48 via USB once I got my buffers up to a good level in WaveLab...

Latency is a bit higher but who cares? Its just being recorded.....

Wow Wow wow

Hell Im still Not sure Why Infact we record @96 khz, and then Have to dither it.

hell now your talking 192khz. Is there really folk's in the forum that can play these back in a home Stereo.

My Pc can only handle up to 96khz, I had a Guy that run's the board in a Local Venue here in KC, and he thought I was crazy for running 48khz, He asked my why I would record them at 48 and then dither them to 44.1

I told Him I was New to the game But it was just kinda a standard. I percieve it as being like a VHS tape (SP,LP,SLP) I mean you can tape a show on Tv in SLP mode but do ya really want to watch it or Just like the look of Snow on your Tv.  :)

But what are really be the benefit's Of 96/192 .

I mean if we have to dither it , Is it just for archive sake?

Sorry for all the newbie ?'s

I've yet to do it, but I think you can burn it to DVD & play it off a DVD player @ 24/96?

Is that right?
