Get my AFX2 early Jan - and wanted to clarify something. From reading the information available, I believe I cant use he AFX2 as an interface with my music PC.
Its an AMD 3500 Athlon processor, single core, runnin at 2.2Ghz. oporating system is Windows XP.
From what I understand, the AFX2 needs a dual core processor to work?
That would be be a dissapointment, I do have a dual core Intel i5 laptop -but thats not used for music. my PC is more than capable or running pro-tools (7.23 actually) for my music and its rock solid. i had initially intended to use reaper for AFX stuff (as the MBox is required for 7.3 - I can use the AFX for audio but not for re-amping etc) then import that into PT to work with. If I need to put a completed track into reaper to re-amp that would be fine - BUT I wanted to use the same hardware - ie the same computer. Having to use the laptop would probably mean I would only use the AFX2 the same way I use my standard - ie not for re-amping or as an interface.
