Going Surround!

K, so I am in my final semester for an Audio Post-Production program in college and have been looking at certain things for my personal rig that I can use if I were to do some freelance while looking for an actual job in the field. Certain features in pro tools 10HD that are also available in the complete production toolkit, are things I actually may miss in the future.

i5 cpu video capable but at what cost?

Wondering if the i5 2500k Gen 2 chip which has on-chip gpu will affect daw performance when using this gpu instead of a separate video card ?
In terms of temps and speed since it does sit within the same die.

Along with Cubase 5 for audio I would be doing some infrequent video rendering but only at a pro-sumer level.

contacting producer/composer

Hey all

I am new here. I am getting mixed answers on a few questions.

I am a heavy metal singer and I sort of know 1 composer/producer who writes stuff not only for his band but for side projects.
How would I approach him to find out if he could use my voice? What do I need to do? Get a demo? I know they will come down here by end of the year.
