Hi,
I'm a first time user of pro-tools. I've been recording off a tascam 646 for years, and am just now getting back into it.
I had an old company and now have a $11k credit with Dell, of which I want to puchase a computer dedicated to protools. Want to get the 002 or 003 and mod it with Black Lion Audio.
I was thinking a machine like this:
- Dell Precision Workstation, T7400 32 bit
- 2x Quad Core Intel Xeon X5450
- Windows XP Pro, w/ SP2
- 256MB PCIe x16 nVidia Quadro
- 4GB, DDR SDRAM FBD Memory, 667Mhz
- 500GB Harddrive (I can increase this later)
There is no firewire option on Dell.com that I can see, so i guess I'll have to install a compliant firewire card later.
So really I'm asking, does the above system look okay for use with ProTools? If not, what should I get with my budget?
Thanks much!
