Guys,
I'm thinking about buying a mac for studio use and also need something that's portable that I can take anywhere and work on it. I need to run the entire studio on there sequencers, soft synths, audio midi interface, plug ins run mics, mastering. I'm thinking about using Reason, Cubase SX...Please advice which is a best option for me, Desktop or Laptop. I really want to get a laptop but I need to know if the laptop will be versatile enough to add additional external hardware to it. |

most external hardware is USB/Firewire anyways. Just the fact that you want to be portable would tell me you need a laptop, considering I don't see that haulin around a desktop everywhere would be very efficient, and the iMac G5, even after haulin it around after a while, might just become a pain after a while.
