Hello, I have recently ditched my old pc, cubase and my hardware - and i am looking for help with my new set up. I have never owned a mac or used logic 8.
I am looking to produce drum and bass/ dubstep using logic 8, plugins, soft synth, soft samplers.
I'm sure thers a lot of people with this equipment new to logic and apple - I would really appreciate some help, advice , opinions and answers to my questions.

The set up is...

- How is it best to set up these items together for a smooth simple work flow?

- Do i need to purchase an external drive? Whats good?

- which internal macbook pro drive is best for this setup 7200rpm or is 5400rpm enough?

please help i live in the middle of nowhere and have no freinds with this setup...

phantom1...

7200 RPM's is the only way too go... The costs are about the same...

Your gear sounds great otherwise,

Mac Daddy is right - the rpm on the harddrives should be 7200 rpm.
