Re: New Motherboard

You're welcome.

A web search using: digital audio workstation provides information and links.

From :

Introduction to DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations)

What’s a DAW?

A digital audio workstation (or DAW) is a computer program that is exclusively designed for the recording, editing and playing of digital audio files. A DAW allows you to edit and mix multiple audio sources simultaneously on a musical timing grid and to visually see how they line up over time. It also makes it easy to synchronize audio clips with each other based on a common tempo, meter, and beat.

(Technically, a DAW is more than just the software running on your computer. It’s also the hardware: the computer running the software along with any special interfaces routing audio or other signals into and out of the computer. For simplicity, we’ll refer to the DAW software as a DAW throughout this curriculum.)

In professional recording studios and in home laptop-based studios, DAWs are the main software being used today. If you’ve even seen GarageBand or Pro Tools or CakeWalk, then you’ve seen a DAW.

Within a DAW, it’s possible to apply effects to audio and control how these effects change over time. It ‘s also simple to remove any previously-applied effect from an audio clip. When you add and change effects in a DAW, it is done non-destructively. In other words, the original audio file on your disk is never changed: only the resulting sound in the DAW.

As we learn computer programming with EarSketch, we will run all of our computer programs inside of a DAW program called Reaper to create music.

To open Reaper, double-click the Reaper icon on the desktop:

This is seriously high end stuff!!

Re: New Motherboard

In years past owned a couple famous live entertainment venues in Los Angeles. And on occasion would mix the live bands for the club. What you showed me brings back many memories, and is way over my head. Now just get me some simple memory. Thanks again my friend.

Re: New Motherboard

Sometimes I take things a bit to far

I'll try to keep things simple.

You seem to be leaning towards Corsair memory, which is fine.
Whats the price difference between their 2400MHz and 2666MHz 4 x 8GB compatible memory kits that you've looked at?

Re: New Motherboard

The Newegg prices for Corsair quad core kits with 2400MHz and 2666MHz varies from $310 to $330 and one kit at $355 for Vengeance LPX 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR4 memory.

The price for the similar 2800MHz quad core kit is $500 which includes two Corsair memory cooling fans.

G.Skill RAM Configurator compatibility results for your Asus X99-Deluxe/U3.1, G.SKILL - RAM Configurator

Newegg current prices on June 9, 2015 for 32GB (4 x 8GB) quad channel kits:

• [Ripjaws 4] F4-2400C15Q-32GRB $310
• [Ripjaws 4] F4-2666C16Q-32GRB $315 - $320
• [Ripjaws 4] F4-2800C15Q-32GRBB $350

This list only includes the Blue heat spreader models.
The Black and Red models have similar part numbers in the G.Skill compatibility list, but the last part of the model number will be -32GRK or -32GRR

You can probably find Asus X99-Deluxe (usb.3.0) motherboard reviews from last fall and see how well the memory kits in the reviews worked out.

Others have their favorite brands, for me it's a coin toss between Corsair and G.Skill.
Crucial and Kingston HyperX memory should also work equally well.

Re: New Motherboard

Cannot find G. Skill here. Can you walk me through the process to find them. Then I can pm Matt. So many different ones, I am afraid of picking the wrong one. Tried to find a couple memory warehouses, just to see some models listed a few times, but different depots, list different compatibilities for the ASUS Deluxe 3.1. So I will get ahold of your Matt and see if he can make a couple specific recommendations. Let me know how to get there. Thanks

Re: New Motherboard

If you click on TweakTown at the top of the page, you will see Tech Support from Vendors and G.Skill is the 3rd forum in the alphabetical list.

The forum link is: http://forums.tweaktown.com/g-skill/

Click on this link to quickly and easily send a PM to G.Skill Matt: http://forums.tweaktown.com/private....=newpm&u=70599

Use the link at the end of the first sentence in post #35 to see the G.Skill Memory Configurator's compatibility list for your Asus X99-Deluxe/U3.1 motherboard.

Obviously you want to ignore all of the memory kits that provide 8GB, 16GB, and 64GB of memory.

Re: New Motherboard

Sent Matt a personal email, I think.
Thanks

Re: New Motherboard

In your Settings window, look to the options on the left of the screen where the second option in the My Messages section is Sent Items.
Click on Sent Items and see if a copy of the PM that you sent is there.

I don't recall if the default forum settings is "place a copy of sent messages in my Send Items folder."

Re: New Motherboard

If I looked in the right place, nothing there. I sent message from the Skill thread, where it states send private message.

Re: New Motherboard

I've PM'd Matt to contact you if he hasn't already received a PM from you.

Re: New Motherboard

I see thanks. Wish I was as good as you with computers.

Re: New Motherboard

If there's any confusion about which 32GB G.Skill memory kit you should buy, the following information should help.

From the G.Skill memory faq at http://www.gskill.com/en/faq/Memory[email protected])

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
note: their memory FAQ has not been updated to include ddr4 memory information.

You've decided to buy a single quad channel 32GB ddr4 memory kit.

Your remaining choice is the memory speed and the color of the memory's heat spreader.

Available rated memory speeds are 2133MHz, 2400MHz, 2666MHz and 2800MHz.

Re: New Motherboard

Thanks I got the email from you and G. Skill, now I am really confused. Can you narrow it down to one group? Or just a couple of options. I am not worried about something being a trillionth of a second faster. Thanks
