I wouldn’t dare try to convince you otherwise.
#FUTUREMARK PCMARK 10 MAC#
If you can assemble something faster and better than a Mac Pro… go for it. I have no doubt you know far more about this subject than I do… It may not have the speed or flexibility of the more expensive models…but it offers ALL the benefits of the Mac OSX, for a very modest price tag.įor those of you guys who build custom PCs… The newer models, and especially the boosted ones show surprisingly good performances on the benchmark, and in some cases even outperforms the regular iMac.

Well the Mac Mini is proof that this is not entirely true.Īnd quite surprisingly, while the older models were definitely not on par with the iMac or Mac Pro in terms of speed… I want to get a Mac, but they’re too expensive 🙁 How many times have your heard someone say: If you CAN’T however, your final option is the Mac Mini. If you can afford it, it’s quite likely the ideal choice for most home studios. While not nearly as powerful, the regular iMac is equally as practical for a typical beginner’s setup. Now for the overwhelming majority of us who can’t afford the iMac Pro, the next option is probably the best: the regular iMac. Now, one look at the base model price and you’ll understand why this model is not for everyone… And don’t even look at the price of the fully upgraded model if you’re faint of heart.īut if you’re looking for the most powerful mac out there and don’t mind making a (very) long-term investment, the iMac Pro will have you covered for - at the very least - the next decade. The iMac pro is simply the MOST POWERFUL all-in-one computer to date, by a long shot There is a serious, brand new contender on the desktop mac scene: the iMac pro. Now, up until not so long ago, the Mac Pro was just overkill for most of us, whether it was in terms of specs, or price. Peek your head into any pro studio…and odds are, that’s what you’ll find.Īnd the reason why is because it’s the only model that’s made to be easily upgradable, whichever part you’re looking to switch. If none of these 3 things apply to you…get a Mac.īut whichever side you choose, just know that tons of great music has been created on either one, and this topic isn’t nearly as important as some might have you believe.Īssuming you’ve made your decision…let’s move on.įor studio recording, there’s probably nothing better.
#FUTUREMARK PCMARK 10 WINDOWS#
Windows – some people just like the Windows OS.Customization – computer nerds typically prefer PC’s, since they are much easier to modify/supercharge.Price – Macs are usually more expensive than PC’s, and not everyone can afford them.
#FUTUREMARK PCMARK 10 PC#
So why a PC then? It’s usually 1 of 3 reasons: And these days, most of the music world (and the rest of the world) agrees. Not just for recording, but for everything. In fact, I absolutely HATE giving my opinion on this topic. If he uses a Mac, tell him PC’s are better.īecause for some strange reason, this topic incites violent debates…that last forever, and result in no real conclusions. If he uses a PC in his studio, tell him Macs are better.b

Want to know the easiest way to piss-off a recording geek? Here’s what you do:

Now at this point, I’ll assume you’ve already decided whether a desktop or laptop computer is right for you. Plus…since most of us use a laptop for school/work anyway, it eliminates the need for 2 separate purchases.
