Pro Audio Support

Q:
General Info - CakeTalk#1
 
A:
1. How many tracks Cakewalk Pro Audio will record. (real life examples)

486-SX 33 MHz w/8 MB ram: 2 to 4 tracks
486-DX 66MHz w/16 MB ram: 4 to 6 tracks
Pentium 60 w/16 MB ram, 2.5 meg/sec HD: 9 tracks (Dr. Solos setup here at
Cakewalk)

A faster processor and/or hard drive will allow Cakewalk Pro Audio to record and
play back more tracks. Different sound cards do not influence the number of
possible tracks. These tests were done under Windows 3.01 on stock computers.
Windows 95 will require more ram.


2. Simultaneous Recording (Full-Duplex)
Full-duplex means the ability to play and record simultaneously. Some
inexpensive sound cards do not allow for simultaneous record and play back. The
full-duplex sound cards we have successfully tested with Cakewalk are: the CardD
Plus, Audio Trix Pro, The Turtle Beach Multisound, Classic, Tahiti, and Montery
cards. Well continue to test new full-duplex cards as they become available
and keep you posted. Refer to attached sound card chart for details.


3. 4.01 Maintenance Upgrade
