Hello. Newbie here, so please be patient.
I need to invest some money in a laptop for the purpose of playing live shows. It needs to be able to run Cubase\Reason (for Midi Controlling)\and I guess a small external box for two mics and a geetar. That is all I really know- I am really not hardware savvy in the least. I am pretty sure whatever laptop I pick up is going to need at least 1 Gig of memory and a hefty bit of ram, but I just do not know where to start outside of that.
Also, as far as guitars an mics, I know I will need some speakers probably for the mics, but will I need amps? My bandmate has a small amp for his guitar already but I am pretty sure we would need more. Also, the box in question from the above paragraph- do they make amps that can go from computers to insturments, or would I just be better off with a small mixer?
Any and all help is greatly apperciated! <3
