I decided to go with the audigy 2 paltinum for the recording for many reasons, one was the pricetag, I would og with an external sourceto keep extra noise form entering my recoriding, the pc's noise can affect the sound through wiring....argh, but I am going to put insulation around the 5.25" input on the audigy 2, another reason is the 24/96 recording....i would have to pay 400 for the same type of stud, and since i only need on input, plus midi i decided this would be awesome, and these are the best prices i found. I looked for hours. And I am happy with what I found, well tell me what you think, and again I will post pics of the pc Edited June 1, 2003 by santacruz395 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

General912 Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 yep i just hate the kids who are rich and then go have there parents buy them a computer from alienware and then go saying that my computer kills yours! I just laugh and say go away amature. My rig will kill yours trust me. then they go like "no i got an alienware" Im like Just because your paying for the Alienware name dosent mean its better than mine.

santacruz395 Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 Yah all my friends are like get alienware or dell they are SOO good so i told them the benchmarks would prove it, but i could build a pc for half the pric eof any of those that would woop em up on the benchmark tests... plus i like the assurance of knowing the parts are MINE not knowing that i had to get someone to get it for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
