I've got a fairly grunty PC running Win 8.1 with Reaper 4.76 ( 64 bit )
The hardware is a Peavey PV6 mixer and a Sennheiser MD427 mic.
When fooling around at home I DI the guitar via various pedals into the mixer rather than mic the amp and when I am recording a jam session I simply hang the mic in between the three of us.
The guys I jam with one plays lap steel / dobro & sings and the other plays a Takamine & sings, I play bass or 6 stringer depending on the song.
At the jams I use my wife's lappy running Vista and the same release of Reaper via the Peavey mixer.
The Peavey only gives you two out which is fine for my needs
