Best Apple Computer For Music Production 2018

Best tool for music production when traveling

I needed a new main computer for my music production studio. I was not sure whether to buy this or the 2.93 12-core. I did some research and everything pointed to processor speed trumping core count in heavy DAW use. It is true. This machine outperforms a friends 2.93 12-core in plugin/Virtual instrument count in both Logic and Cubase. The only downside is that you are limited to a max of 24GB of RAM (using 8GB sticks) to still get the triple channel functionality. But that's still quite a lot.

I have a dell inspiron 3847, came with 8 gig of ram. I'm using it for music production, cubase and a lot of vst instruments. Well the day came to add more ram. Because this computer is a bit older, it maxes out at 16 gig. The Crucial 16GB DDR3 1600, was the only thing I could find for an upgrade. These specs are not the fastest, but the mother board would not accept DDR4. Swapping the ram was easy. On restart the computer recognized there was a hardware change, went to settings and ran a diagnostic, than restarted and works great. OS Windows 10 64bit. If your doing music production, I recommend 32GB or more if your computer will accept it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am building my computer for music production and this was one of the missing pieces I needed to finish my build. I’ve been looking for extra ram to give my computer the storage it needs to run my music programs without stalling. It was easy to install and works great. Im sure this product will last.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using these headphones for the past week, I must say that I am pleasantly happy with this product. Here are a few key points for those who are looking to purchase. Long lasting battery: Over the past week, listening to music and connecting to my computer for work meetings, I have yet to charge it. It automatically turns off when not in use and connects when needed. So this allows for a longer time of use. Comfort: It is very light, I could hardly tell it was on my head. For someone who is staring at 5 other over the ear headphones, this one is my go to now. Quick connection: If I am on my computer, once I turn it on, it connects automatically now. When I first got it, my tablet (apple), my phone(apple), and my computer (windows) all recognized it and connected without failure. Buttons: The buttons are displaced perfectly on this set. I didn't even have to look at the instructions, it just works! Sound: Crisp and clear for music. Not overly bass heavy, which is nice when comparing them to my Beats. Clear and no background noise for phone calls. I asked many people and made phone calls and everyone stated that they could hear me and I could hear them perfectly. Nice Job JBL!!

I was looking for computer speakers that could double as Bluetooth speakers for music and podcasts. I have several BT speakers and an Apple HomePod but was looking for a little more separation. While I was a bit skeptical about the size of the speakers, I am very pleased to say that the reviews were accurate. This system is phenomenal. I am shocked by the depth of sound that comes from speakers of this size, and the integration of the sub in the soundstage is excellent. This is a terrific compromise for computer/BT/bookshelf speakers.

this computer is fast and its apple... what more can I say.
