Need laptop recommendations for music production
Need laptop recommendations for music production Posted on: 29.10.2013 by Dylan Kockler So I'm trying to find a solid laptop for music production, it doesn't have to be the best but get the job done (hopefully smoothly)My budget is about $1000 ($1100 max) and I'm very interested in MacBook Pros and MacBook Airs (Retina as well) and really prefer only the 13 inch models. 8GB Ram is an absolute must for me and I would like an SSD however I don't mind if it doesn't have that. Please help me find some solid deals on some! (Also I'd like to find deals with financing for like 6,12, or 18 month financing) Refurbished is okay with me, same as used! ALSO SHOW ME SOME EXCELLENT PC's as well!! | |

Rolanda Clodfelder 31.10.2013 | You should be able to pick up the last Gen Retina in the Apple Refurb Shop for $1100 with 8gb / 256 Unless you are well versed with optimizing PC's (or willing to learn alot) I'd say go for the Macbook, or else feel free to spend half your time dealing with nitty problems. |

Narcisa Hughie 30.10.2013 | Oh yeah and there's an old adage that anything with 'pro' in the name really isn't pro at all. It's just consumer gear dressed up a bit... |
Narcisa Hughie 30.10.2013 | Lenovo T or W series (previously IBM's) I've got a W530 (more than your budget mind) for music production but I've had T31's and T61's in the past (they're all still going strong) They'll shit all over Macs spec/price and they're built like tanks Check out the 'Legends of Thinkpad' page http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/c...gends_overview |
Galen Fraile 29.10.2013 | Macbook Pro 13'' is great. Can't go wrong. I suggest picking up a good Mini Display Port to HDMI cable too so if you have a reasonably sized tv monitor nearby you can use it as a bigger screen for your DAW/ plugins As for where to find a cheap one... unless you're a student I donno ): |
