Hey Ricky, glad to see that you are up and sailing over this last year. I remember about a year ago the waters were kind of rough, but once a person cuts their teeth on PT then I think that it can be a great experience and with Logic picking up the slack on the instrument end, Mack has a really

Get it Steve it is a great investment. You have too much midi from your windows days that logic would handle easily for you. For only $200 you cannot go wrong it will give you more drum sounds if we all work together we can learn how to combine those kits and make some excellent drum kit creati

Hi Steve, I used logic before purchasing Pro Tools, and I still will for some of my midi work. In fact, if you're used to PT key commands, there's already a built-in template to use the same commands in Logic. Not sure exactly how far that extends, as I haven't tried editing audio, but they're t

Good evening Ricky, Thanks for providing this information. Am I correct that yours would have been the one from Early 2011 then? do you remember the size of your screen? My swift google brings up two models from that year, with the early, referencing the jacks while the fall may not. Much appr

One more thing whatever computer you get be sure to max out the ram it is not very expensive today. Are you using multiple hard drives for recording? If not you need a great FireWire drive or something very fast as I said in my earlier post Sweetwater can advise what to do. Ricky Prevatte LMBT

When it comes to a Mac computer I would definitely never be under an ice seven processor if I were spending money. I would keep what you have until I could do that. Mac mini or more iMac or some kind of tower would be a strong upgrade I use the MCU pro. If I were you I would call Sweetwater musi

The computer you configured should be plenty sufficient for pro tools. While i have gotten away with mixing on my MBA i wouldn't recommend an air as your only computer if you are trying to run a studio off of it. A mac mini should be find but once again go for as much ram/processor as you can aff

If you're going back and forth between PT and Logic I would recommend the Mackie MCU pro, I think you can get them for around $400 used. If you need mic pre's and headphone all in one surface then you would have to let us know your price range. I haven't heard of any using the Beranger piece wi
