Hi all, would the following parts be suitable for building a PC for a DAW?

CPU – Core 2 Duo E4500

RAM – 2GB DDR2, PC2-5300 (667) non-ECC, 240 DIMM unbuffered (2x1GIG KIT)

MOBO – Gigabyte GA 945 GZM-S2, i945 GZ S775 PCI-E (x16), DDR2, 533 SATA2, uATX, On Board VGA Motherboard

HD – 250GB Seagate Barracuda, SATA2, 7200RPM, 8MB Cache

Thats right, I would like a audio interface for the PC so I can do digital recordings, however I am having trouble finding any that don't have built in preamps. I am sure there some with great preamps out there, but if I happen to have some high quality preamps, and would like to keep them in the signal loop while still switching to digital, would I have any options?

Hi guys, I'm using two computers in my studio, one for recording and the other one for virtual instruments, both using Nuendo 2. The controller is conected to the recording PC. Is there a way to sync the tempo in both computers via MIDI?

i have a question regarding using a drum program on a mac as a standalone and running it into a standalone daw, such as a boss 1200. i have tried in vain for some time now to use Cubase to no avail, and have since decided go the boss daw recording route..computer recording is not my thing. now I'm wondering can i run battery 3 (drum program) and my midi controller as a standalone into a daw?

Dear Readers,

Just recently, I came across a couple of comparative tests regarding fast Hard Drives.

Hi there, I'm setting up a small home studio for creating dance music and i'm currently looking to buy a PC specifically for this.

I've spent hours looking at various sites and was looking into building my own but i'd much rather just buy one that's already built as i've spent more time looking into it than making music!

My apologies in advance for my first post being so lengthy, but my old recording haunts seem to have grown inactive.

Heres a Question?
I have been recently moving toward using more outboard gear when tracking.

Im using Sonar 6 PE on my PC but Im switching to an intel iMac and need some advice. I want something just as powerful as Sonar, maybe something a major rock producer would use. I mean of course other than pro tools.

Thanks for the help!

[Informations] - Choosing a new Professional DAW Machine (CME VX8 controller)

Hello, I'm going to buy a new PC (serious DAW usage) so that I can run as many VST/ plugins I can (EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, EWQL Symphonic Choir, GPO, VSL) without having glitches/fuzz/clicks/noise/etc (lowest latency possible).

Here are some info:
