Hello, I have some money to burn and I’m in desperate need to get a new computer, since my 2012 macbook pro is having seizures and little fits.
It’s long overdue, but now I want to make a good investment and buy a m1 macbook or macmini (m3 is out which is better, 10 core m1 is apparently better than m2 for audio processing).
The price difference between the macbook and mini is so big, that when I buy a mini, I could also get a secondhand Octatrack mk1. I’m playing livesets currently with my macbook, but I’m thinking of changing to octa for these purposes. I don’t travel much currently, but I hope to travel more in the future for gigging. The mac mini will be used for production mainly and some video editing.
What do you think? Anyone has experience with a similar set up?
