I want to set up a new PC for recording, mixing etc...
At the moment I am definite on going for the pc and not the mac (I know, I know...). I have a motu 828 unit and I'll most likely be using cubase sx.
So what are your recommendations for processor, ram, hard drives etc... etc... I want to be able to use 3-4 plugins on all my tracks (around 30 usually), whithout getting overload errors. So what's the magic trick?
Dual processors? Lots of ram? If a dsp card can be avoided that would be great too.
How do you do it? What are you using, and are you able to use gadzillion plugins at once?
