which is best for Mixvibes ? Mac or PC ?

Postby Jeff Wood on 26 Sep 2014, 02:53

Hi Guys, sorry if this question has been asked before,,

But thinking of a new laptop, and I was thinking of getting a mac book pro, I've never owned one before, I currently use a rackmount i5 PC running win7.

So, what's mixvibes like on a Mac ?

Cheers all,

Jeff.

Don't know if still open. .
Cross runs good on both.
If you're looking for stability I would recommend to compare mac pro with business PC and not consumer level. Many components and drivers make it to bus. Level after being tested/improved at customer level.
From what I've heard a disadvantage of mac is nr of usb ports... workaround for like 10 $€.

Hi Jeff,

Always used an dell laptop with i5 but recently changed to mac pro. I feel like the program is a bit more steady & reacts a little bit faster (effects). Another pleasant thing is that i don't have to use an extra audio driver.

Just explaining what i'm experiencing, i'm no compu wiz :)

Hope this helps a bit

Succes !

Bless
