Hey Guys,
So I'm hunting around for a new DAW since my current system is dying a slow death, and while wading through all of these specs. I'm starting to wonder what it is that really makes a great DAW.
Is quad core better than dual core? Does SAW take advantage of a quad core processor? How about FSB speed, or for that matter RAM type and how much RAM 2G or 4G, is there really a performance difference? What about the various chipsets available?
Any guidance you guys could offer would be greatly appreciated. I typically work on music projects with anywhere between 24 to 50 tracks. I also do a fair amount of video sweetening and am finding that I'm doing more of that type of work all the time, so I definitely need a system that isn't going to choke and and crash, since my clients are often in the room while I work.
Since the DAW is now the centerpiece of my studio I really need to regain some confidence that it isn't going to screw me in the middle of a session and make me look like a bigger fool than I already am, so I really need to make a smart and well informed choice here, and at this time I just don't feel I have enough info to make that choice wisely.
Thanks,
Ken Dabek
