Much better to look and ask questions on a DAW forum like Steinberg who have a large user base. Do your research but not just on this forum. It will probably be fine but there is a chance it won’t.
It’s when those run out you have nowhere else to go.Ĭhoose one in you price range and then search on other forums (probably DAW specific) and see if anyone has had a problem with that particular machine. There are lots of tweaks that can be done to help. As I said easy to fix on a desktop if the video card is the problem but not on a laptop.Īlso there isn’t t a problem having lots of software on as long as they are not all running at once or run in the background. It is one that has been tested with things like latencyMon and other tests to make sure it doesn’t have sudden spikes that cause audio to stutter. It may work perfectly but then again it may suffer from stutters even though it is powerful enough.Ī dedicated audio laptop is not one with software pre installed. Some people can switch between the two easily, and some just find the other side just incomprehensible! You can probably find a solid Wintop machine for a few hundreds less than let’s say a MacBook Air M1 with bigger hd and more ram than base, and it’s ok.Īn OS is a personal thing. and bit above their average understanding! But I digress…)
I’ve seen 2-year old cheap things fall apart, hinges broken, key falling off and abysmal performance for other things than FB, IG, and a light text work (although the IG and TikTok crowd doesn’t seem too keen on using text editors. And to be so cheap, it will be filled with sponsored garbage apps that take up space and slows the thing down. It will often skimp on stuff like memory bandwidth, cpu cache performance, and lots of plastic parts.
So, a $400 wintop machine will often not work out too well. Gotta to to manufacturer website and look up specs like memory speed, chipset, etc… One can buy off the shelf laptops that will work for audio.īut, you have to be willing to look up the specs, not just cpu, ram and hd.
