Hi!
My husband has been a musician for roughly 20 yrs now. It’s been my goal for years to set him up with a new laptop and recording program so can record his music as a 1 man band. He’s VERY specific about his sound (I’m sure everyone is) but he is to a flaw. He plays mostly metal and loves to tune down...he also dabbles in to some classic rock here and there and would probably like to have some synth or electronic add ons maybe? We tried setting him up years ago with pro tools and a desktop that was supposed to have all required RAM and whatnot but for whatever reason the program never loaded and he gave up . He NEEDS this in his life. I have about $800 to spend and have been looking at some laptop options. Mostly Dell windows 10. 8gb RAM and 1TB. I’m thibking that’s enough to start. Any input is really appreciated can I add some special external speakers maybe? He’ll be using his ax-fx with the laptop. Should I buy the new protools or is there another affordable program that’s better suited for him.
Thanks so much!!
