I began recording an album on my laptop. (I no longer have a desktop) I have 3GB of ram. I use the old Fast-track USB. It started with the idea of Drums, Guitars, Bass, Vocals. Simple. Fast. Now there's samples, some orchestral parts, and etc.
I have all of my guitars, bass, and lead/melody parts frozen. Im using Superior with Metal Machine cymbals with Metal! shells, and I wont freeze it until the last second, because I add to the drums just about every time I open the project.
Now, its time for some guest leads, and vocals. I began doing some scratch work on my vocals and after adding one track, it has just tanked my CPU with stuttering. The latency is horrid because of the ass-track.
I asked for help on the Cockos forums, got some kinda vague answers. I know REAPER, but I don't the depths of it, or tricks.
Here's the reply:
I took about a month off from the project, and I couldnt figure it out. I made a render of the master mix and none of it synced up with my tempo changes.
Can anyone help me on this fucking shit, so I can get it done? I would appreciate it. I dont know what to do.
Thank you

Here's the reply:
if you render a stereo mix of the project as a stem and import it as a new track, the rendered mix will be in time (sync) with the project. You can save that track as a new temp project and record to it. (Hopefully you can get just the few tracks and one amp sim running with a small disc buffer.) Then open up the original project and literally copy/paste the new recorded tracks into the original.
