OK, I bought this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MY6IMXL/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I don't love it yet - but it's grown on me in the first couple of hours. Anyhow, it's a virgin Windows 10 laptop that is definitely technologically able to do what I wish.
I will be going Scarlett 6i6 >> Reaper >> Scarlett >> monitors. (at least that's the current plan)
What advice do you have in terms of setting things up? Particular questions I have:
* Would you install Reaper first, and then the Scarlett driver? Scarlett driver first?
* The speakers on the laptop are utterly horrible. However, the outbound sound (heard via a bluetooth speaker on first test drive) is excellent. Would you disable them? I get nervous mucking around too much with Windows as it seems to always be looking for an excuse to cause problems.
* Do you have a 'way' of setting up new laptops for recording? Any lessons I'd be smart to learn from you, rather than my own mistakes?
Thanks for any and all responses.
