Well its not that slow, but I want somthing that is faily light and powerful. Its for my laptop. Cerleron 1.06ghz 256ram. I will be using a PreSonus firewire interface for recording.

Which software would you recommend to be the lightest on the system when it comes to tracking? But still with some decent features.

Thank you,
Josh

Notebook versions of the Celeron are notoriously slow. Add to that notebook HDD's are slower than desktop models and only 256 MB of RAM and I don't see you running a whole lot of tracks let alone plugs.

Going with software that taxes the processor less is a good idea but I would seriously consider adding more RAM to that machine as well. In your case at least 512 MB, more if you can swing it.

Check the speed of your HDD, as a faster drive may help also.

Also do the DAW tweaks listed in this forum many times.

That should help performance with whatever software you choose.
