Hello there. I'm new here I'm considering to get a Mac (I think it works better for making music - and this is a question I'd like you to answer).
I am new in music production either. Should I get a Mac? Is it better? thanks |

The beauty of using a Mac is that the computer hardware and software are designed to work together 100%. PCs, even really good ones, are put together with pieces from various manufacturers and that means you need drivers from various vendors. The fewer vendors involved in getting your OS and hardware to work together, the less time you'll spend troubleshooting problems with your machine.
Relatively speaking, the Mac is much more integrated at all levels, so you'll have more time to spend learning your software and building your core skills in music production. And less time having to be a computer geek. And I say that because I am a computer geek and love my Mac 'cause I don't have to be. peace. -------------------- |
