PC for music production.

[vanthus]

I've noticed quite a few people enquiring about PC's for music production and recording,but the sound cards on offer are more geared towards gaming and multi-media apart from maybe the Creative Sound Blaster ZxR.
The option of a low latency audio interface might be an idea,just a thought.

Thanks for the suggestions, we'll look into this further shortly.

Generally anyone serious about making music will utilize an external audio interface. These do not generally have very many settings and are geared more towards complete accuracy (No bass boost, x-fi etc...) They can range from something budget (What I have) - Tascam US-122 MKII to ridiculously extravagant Metric Halo ULN-8. My one functions using USB 2.0 but higher end units may require a PCI/PCI-e card to be installed in the computer as well, others may use USB 3.0/Firewire etc for a better connection too!
