System requirements are one thing, having a machine that is powerful enough for recording is something else. You can get by with less but the general advice is to get the most powerful processor and as much RAM as you can afford. A good start is an i7 (newer is better), 16gb RAM and a SSD. You can d...

Latency is really dependent upon the power of the pc that's driving the interface, so if you have a weak computer you'll be limited if your system is older or can't handle the wo...

Not one with experience but I know a few folks who use Bandcamp and they seem pleased.
