Welcome to this week’s podcast! On the show, we are joined by Microsoft’s Pete Brown to talk about optimizing Windows 11 PCs for music production. Pete discusses what you should and shouldn't do when setting up a music PC. He shares his tips for getting the most out of your system and explains why it’s all about tailoring the system to your needs rather than chasing numbers. Pete also explains the different audio standards in Windows and gives us the latest updates on MIDI 2.0 for Windows. If you are building a Windows PC for music production or want to get the best from your current system, Pete has some great tips and tricks. If you have your own tips, let us know in the comments!
