I've recently entered the world of DAW by purchasing Digi 001 to work with my PC. I was dismayed to find that the software is rather picky and I need a new PC now. To keep expenses down, I would like to build one.I would appreciate any advice on motherboards, processors, etc. so that I can build a compatable system that works. Thanks. . .
