Suggestions for type of recording computer
Forums
I currently have an old (2004, Pentium II, 4GB) desktop computer that's painfully slow to use even to web browse and fairly audible in terms of cooling fans and HDD, and I'd like to get into home recording.
My goal is to buy a used computer with the following four objectives:

Looking to buy a new computer for recording
Forums
Hi There,
My (admittedly fairly minimalist) recording setup was recently written off in a fire. I am awaiting a payout from the insurance company, and this gives me an opportunity to wipe the slate clean and start again from scratch.
The hub of all of this will of course be the computer. I have been umming and erring over this for a long time and feel I need some guidance.

Beginning of the end of computer based recording (finally?)
Forums
Check this out! The product itself is cool, but the implications are what I'm enamoured with. Computers are generally clunky, bloated, and relatively expensive. In my opinion far too 'open' for our needs in audio. I've been saying for years a closed, audio (video) only machine has a real place in our little corner of the world.

Audio Cards for monitoring
Forums
I have to confess that I am so ignorant of this stuff that I am likely asking the all time dumbest question ever... but here goes. I have a pair of monitor headphones (Sony) and shoot and record video. I'm upping my game a bit and wonder how best to monitor the sound recorded once it's in the computer so it's not colored by base boosting etc.

How long does a recording computer last?
Forums
Hey guys,
My recording computer is a quad-core i7 iMac that I bought just over 3 years ago, the day that the 2011 refresh was released in early summer 2011. It has 8gigs of ram and purely solid state hard drive.

Rig for Live Recording to Digital / Computer
Forums
Hello,
I am primarily a musician, however I have been running a "Rock Band" after school program which is a lot of fun. I have a lot of experience with Garageband and I know this doesn't get much credit as a program, but I did a lot of recording on it with my friend in the past and I had results I was happy to listen to and continue to enjoy listening to.

ART Pro Dual Pre Usb Interface - Computer playback in recording
Forums
Hi guys, So I'm not new to music, but pretty new to home recording. I got myself an ART Pro Dual Pre USB Interface so that I could record vocals and guitar at the same time, but as different tracks. But when I hook it up to my laptop and record using the Edison recorder in Fruity Loops 8 it records it as one track.
