Help! I would like to get a plextor CD-RW for my laptop, but am limited by my connection options (PC Card, USB 1, serial, parralel).

I was hoping someing could point me in the right direction.. Thoughts were to slap a plextor IDE into a firewire enclosure ->Firewire adapter card-PC CARD slot. Im using WIN2k on a beefy HP laptop.

Any thoughts?

hello,

i have an ibm thinkpad, p3 500 / 320 / 10GB.

1.) will this be enough for stereo recording of practices and live shows at 24 / 48?

2.) should i get a USB 2 or firewire external drive? (brand recs?)

3.) i have the Maudio USB Quattro - is there a better interface in the $300 price range for a laptop?

thanks,
mike

ok, so i'm going to get a digi 002...what would you recommend to use as the laptop for it. i tend to like macs, but what is the best bang for the buck out there? so you need a computer all tricked out and fast, or will something cheaper do?

thanks

Hello, and sorry for such an abstract question, but:

if you had experience with running SONAR and/or
Cakewalk 9.03 on laptop for live and recording
sessions, could you please let me know:

1. is there a "perfect" laptop from major manufacturers like
Sony (vaio) or Toshiba (satellite) that works flawlessly
with SONAR/CW?

HI THERE.

JUST WANT A LITTLE INFO HERE. I WAS WONDERING IF I CAN USE MY LAPTOP FOR EDITING OR MASTERING OR JUS PLAIN RECORDING? I HAVE A DELL INSPIRON 8000 PIII 850 WITH 512 MB MEMORY 32 GIG HD 32MB ATI VIDEO 20 GIG SECOND HD 8X CD-RW WINXP PRO CORPORATE. IT HAS FIREWIRE AND USB.

Okay, if I track my initial drum tracks at a recording studio, I can do the rest at home with merely an M-box. It might be nice to have more flexibility with the Digi 001 and I probably could afford to get both. The M-box with minimal latency sounds pretty cool.

Laptop & Nuendo: Can it be done?

I can already imagine the main answer that will be given. "Don't bother!"

Hi all :( )?
Anyone any other suggestion?

Thanks

Cheers

ps. If you want to get an idea what sounds I currently prefer, you can listen to my music at http://www.goltstein.com

Okay,

So I picked up a Apple G3 Laptop that has 1 firewire port. two usb ports and a line in and line out.

Already had a version of Emagic Logic on the machine. I have a peavey mic and a compressor.

How do I record to the laptop?

For Midi I bought something that handles that pretty well. Just need to know how to get audio in and out and at a good level!

I would like to be able to edit the Kurzweil K2000
via MIDI on my PC laptop...

Anyone know of a modestly-priced (or free?)
Editor Program that would do the trick?

As far as I can tell Kurzweil does
not offer such an item...
