Bronze Member Username: DurskiPost Number: 19 Registered: Nov-06 | I have a $1200 budget, I need to build a pc with audio engineering / editing capabilities. I need the whole thing with monitor, and 7.1 surround speakers, i can find those just fine but they need to be taken into consideration with respect to the budget. Any ideas? |

If you are unsure of brands and hardware types, use the reviews as guidelines. If you need further help, let me know and I can put together a suitable system for you. Keep in mind that "audio engineering/editing capabilities" is software driven, and almost any decent new system will have the ability to run those programs. |

Bronze Member Username: DurskiPost Number: 20 Registered: Nov-06 | I have known and loved newegg for a long time and I have built many pc's, but I'm not sure what an audio engineering pc would need that would be different than... say a gaming pc or regular work station. I assume some sort of 8 channel sound card... I draw a blank after that. Was really wondering if anyone has an Audio editing pc that they're happy with, and if they could share a little about it, and some of the apps they use. Thanks for the help so far. |
