Hi, idk really where to post this so im sorry if this is the wrong place. But I have a mac, and I run GarageBand and Ableton live. When I play via my midi keyboard connected through the usb hub, its fine. But when I plug in my guitar through the jack next to the headphone jack, it lags pretty bad. Same thing when I run my synth through that jack. How can I take the sound from my hardware synth and guitar into my DAW's without lag? Like what exactly do I need to buy, as cheap as possible haha
Thanks, Tyler |

Ahh, I see. Let me tell you what my specs are:
Model Name: MacBook Model Identifier: MacBook5,1 Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz Number Of Processors: 1 Total Number Of Cores: 2 L2 Cache: 3 MB Memory: 4 GB Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz Boot ROM Version: MB51.0073.B06 Everytime I open Ableton it freezes up after a few tracks, I figure I need to clean my Mac up. If I clear up some of the HD, do you think that this mac can be used for serious audio production? Or do I need to upgrade to a MBP? |

clean this machine up and it should be adequate. i ran Live and Reason for a few years on one that's just the same.
good luck. |
