Hi Mac community,
this is my first post, so please go easy on me
I've been a switcher for about 4 months now, purchasing a unibody Macbook 13' and loving everything about it. Having been a Windows PC user for around 15 years, it makes for a refreshing change (though I still use a PC in the office!).
My question is regarding using my Macbook for music...
Other than the sequencing software (ie Logic Pro), what else will I need in order to take full advantage of the Macbook for music creation? So far I have the following on my list:-
- Midi controller keyboard (any suggestions? Looking to spend under £100)
- Decent magnetically shielded speakers / monitors (again, any other suggestions?)
My music will be very 'loop based', so I have no intention of plugging in live instruments (ie guitar), but will need to use a microphone. What will I need in order to use a mike with the Macbook?
Is there anything else I am missing?
Any help with this will be very much appreciated.
Thanking the Mac community in advance,
Munkee
