re: Laptop for low level music recording.
Posted by 4thand20 on 1/16/26 at 10:40 am to prplhze2000
Yeah I’m sure the pro would be way better. And I do love a snappy machine so I know the 16gb would be better. I’m just getting to that point where it’s like ‘if I spend this much then I may as well pay a little more and get a bigger this or a better that’. And in the end I really think I just need something that will work good enough for now.
I saw an 8gb MacBook Air M1 with 256gb storage for $371 off of backmarket. I’m leaning towards just going with that. Then I can see what I need/want don’t need/want and it won’t break the bank. If I only get a year or two of use out of it then I’m fine with that. I can just turn around and trade it in on something better

Thank you for the detailed reply but oh man, most of that went way over my head lol. I should’ve noted that I’m borderline computer/tech illiterate. Which probably means I just need the bare minimum laptop to get started and if it’s something I really get into then I can get a beefier setup.
So you think I should stay away from 8gb RAM altogether? Because some of the refurbished laptops I was looking at only had 8gb. Also I do have a Scarlett audio interface. And some Audio Technica headphones for playback and a Shure (can’t remember the model) microphone although I don’t plan on doing any vocals as my singing is worse than my playing lol
Laptop for low level music recording.
Posted by 4thand20 on 1/15/26 at 1:19 pm
Looking to dip my toes into recording music. I have some edrums, a bass and electric/acoustic guitars. I have a GK mb210 bass amp and a Boss Katana 100 gen 3 guitar amp and a handful of effects pedals. Also a focusrite Scarlett audio interface. I'm looking to do some very basic music recording just for fun. Not looking to become a professional musician by any means. This is just a hobby of mine. And I’m not that good to begin with lol
Looking for a laptop dedicated to this. I want to download ezdrummer 3 and Boss Tone Studio and a basic music recording program on it. I know laptops can get expensive but I’d love to something in the $500 range if possible. Max budget would probably be around $800 but I definitely do not want anything overkill for my basic needs.
I saw a new 16gb MacBook Air m4 at Costco on sale for $799 but it only has 256gb storage. Not sure if that'll be enough even for my basic needs.
The Apple certified refurbished MacBooks are more expensive than the new ones are of the same model at Costco.
I saw a refurbished 8gb m1 model on Backmarket for around $500 with 512gb storage. I know that site has mixed reviews but it looks like they have the best deals.
Also saw an 8gb refurbished m3 model with 512gb storage on Best Buy for $750.
Do any of these sound good? Too much/not enough? I’m leaning towards a MacBook but should I consider a windows laptop as they are cheaper and may be all I need? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Enough time for Miami to get a 3 and out and get the ball again before the half ends

Fallout 3 was my first Fallout game so it is my favorite. I have an irrational hatred of New Vegas, even though I know it's an objectively great game, because when playing it a bug caused a save file to corrupt and I lost something like 10 hours of playtime. I turned it off and have never touched it since. I was extremely salty.
I had the exact same experience. FO3 was my first fallout game and the first rpg I ever played and it blew me away. Still my all time favorite game ever. I played NV and was really enjoying it until I reached a point where every time I loaded my game it would crash after playing it for 10 mins. Every fricking time. So I never even got close to finishing it and was too pissed about it to start over
