Subject:New Kid Posted by: arterre Date:1/4/2000 12:05:00 PM Any suggestions/comments on what type of computer / sound card performs best with loops 2.0? I want to update to a new pentium system and I'm considering buying this software. Thanks in advance Arterre@pacbell.net
Subject:Re: New Kid Reply by: Dogcreek Date:1/5/2000 8:09:00 PM Hi Richard, Any Pentium over 200mhz should work well. Since speed is cheap these days, get the fastest machine you can afford and gets loads of ram. Soundcards are another issue. I have used three with ACID and greatly prefer the quality of the "Turtle Beach, Montego II" with analog and digital outs. It sounds great and is far quieter than two others I tried. They were a Yamaha and a Creative Labs "Awe 64" You would want to go with a PCI style card if you have the choice.

Subject:Re: New Kid Reply by: Dogcreek Date:1/7/2000 3:08:00 PM Hi Richard, There are notebook onboard sound cards that come with the computer. If you want to record your creations off to DAT or MD then I would stick with a desktop model. I really don't think the laptop cards are as capable but I may be totally wrong. If you use a docking station, then Turtle Beach, Event, and others will make a good card for you. Any laptop ACID users out there?

Hi Richard,

Any Pentium over 200mhz should work well. Since speed is cheap these
days, get the fastest machine you can afford and gets loads of ram.

Soundcards are another issue. I have used three with ACID and greatly
prefer the quality of the "Turtle Beach, Montego II" with analog and
digital outs. It sounds great and is far quieter than two others I
tried. They were a Yamaha and a Creative Labs "Awe 64" You would want
to go with a PCI style card if you have the choice.

Peace, Jeff
