It’s time for me to buy a new windows PC. I want it to last the next 5 – 8 years. What should I get in the way of…. The CPU,RAM, Hard Drive, and Storage, and Graphics Card?  I am not  computer literate.

Here is what I will be using it for.

·       Cakewalk by bandlab will be the most complex thing I do on the computer.

·       Basic home movie video editing with adobe premier. Nothing complex.

·       I would like to reduce the myriad of wires if possible.

·       Roland UA-101 interface usb.

·       I want to hook up some basic flat response studio monitors to the UA-101.

·       A flat screen hdmi TV to watch netflix

·       Email

·       Youtube

·       Microsoft word, Excel

·       No gaming.

·       Currently using windows 8.

 Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am a lost puppy.

Worked! Your the man!  Hey what kind of beer are you holding there? It looks good!

Can I open a sonar platinum bun. file with cakewalk by bandlab?

I have an old 2004 sonar bundle file saved onto a dvd. disc. I would like to open it in the cakewalk by bandlab daw.  Is there a way to do that. I want to remix the song. I tried to open it but I get a "Cant find audio path" error message.  I thought on a bundle file all audio data was in the file. So what do I not understand?

Thanks! I moved the slider all the way to safe and no delay all good!

Thanks big time!

After succefully recording 5 tracks of guitars, bass, tamborine to an "Addictive Drums" track.   I am now trying to add vocals.  But for some reason  when I start recording the vocal  track the drum track is ahead of the beat , out of sync.  But it in time oar in sync during play back.  I can mute the drums and record the vocals and then unmute them to listen but I want to hear the drum track when recording.

So in short

Recorded 5 tracks to a Addictive Drums track no problems all in sync during recording and playback.

Now,

Drums are out of sync during recording.

But Drums are in Sync during play back.

I probably caused the problem some how but do not know how to fix it?

All programs are updated.

Any suggestions?
