Hello...I'm a PC-recently-turned-Mac-Lover and Need some Advice...

I want to build The Ultimate Portable Studio that can also Handle playing Multiple Resource-Hogging Plug-ins (Virtual Instruments)...

So, Two Purposes for the laptop:
1) Music Production and Recording (Cubase, Pro Tools)
2) Live Performance (V-Stack)…so in essence A VST Beast!


I plan on buying:
The Akai MPC2500
M-Audio Semi-weighted 88 Keys

Can someone help me out of this overwhelming decision process with What laptop? what interfaces work best...etc...all this "wait-to-buy"..."buy-now- stuff" is crazy

Any advice is Hugely appreciated...

I'd say go for the macbook (there will be other models by the end of the year) as you don't have legacy peripherals or software to run on it, it'd be a safe bet. But you'll have to wait a little for availability, including software.

Now the interface will be a problem… right now. unsure.gif

Now whatever the laptop: bcatcho is right… RAM! the more the merrier.

On the USB keyboard, I'd have a look at what's available, M-audio touch cheap but work usually, and now there's a load of controlers available everywhere, I don't know half of them.

On the high end, i'd look into the Korg and CMI direction… Now not everyone needs this stuff.

Now laptopists! it's your turn! wink.gif biggrin.gif
