If you’re looking for a more static ‘studio’ rig, then I think a Mac Pro is the natural choice. If you’re going to be a road warrior, a MacBook Pro is for you. It’s a no-brainer.Īs far as which Mac you need, you’ll have to decide how mobile you need to be. 99% of them will be using Macs, so it would be as well to start off inside an operating system that translates easily to your compadres. You may well (=are likely to!) find that once you start creating your work, you’ll want to involve other people to help you realise it - other musicians, arrangers, producers, mixers. Modern Windows computers are very powerful machines, way more than capable of helping you produce your magnum opus, but in my experience, music at its best is a collaborative activity. A simple answer, and not one born out of any snobbery, zeitgeist, elitism (and no, I don’t work for Apple). So which computer platform should you choose, Windows or Apple?Īpple.
I realise that I’m probably stating the obvious here, but aside from microphones instruments and cables, the basic tool that you’ll need to record and manipulate audio in the modern age is a computer.
If you’re just beginning this journey, the world of audio recording can seem very bewildering, so I’ll start the basic tools that you'll need. I’m assuming that if you’re reading this, you’re likely to be a newcomer to digital audio, so I’ll start with the broad view.
