Default Re: Correct system requirements for pro tools First?

You're going to need more than 4 gig of ram. 8 gig minimum and more if you can get it. Don't forget to budget for a separate hard drive to record to. You've got a small system drive but don't say if it's an ssd or a spinner. If an ssd you could record to that until you can afford a separate external recording drive.

edit for additional:
Maybe this should be moved to the PT First forum.
