    Any Recomendations?

    your laptop is probably fine for music, it just sounds like you need a good audio interface. Post up the specs of your current laptop.

    Did I mention I hate windows?

    no, the XBox and PS3 ARE different platforms. From a hardware perspective, a Mac is no different from a PC minus a couple of minor changes for OSX to boot. This is the reason you can run Windows on a Mac and OSX on a properly equipped PC. The difference comes down to the OS and the expense...

    Did I mention I hate windows?

    No, I don't have to admit that it's more secure because, to me, it just isn't. I don't feel good about an OS that purposely hides it's internals from me. Windows exposes far more of itself to me than OSX does on the surface, and Linux goes even further than that. The typical OSX user that has a...

    to any of you who believe Apple's propoganda that Macs are virus proof, I would like to have you look at these: http://www.securemac.com/applescript-tht-trojan-horse.php There's an OSX trojan. http://www.osnews.com/story/20827/New_Mac_OS_X_Trojan_Found_in_Pirated_iWork_09 ... and...

    http://www.serverwatch.com/eur/article.php/3778221/TCP-Sockstress-Brings-Forth-New-OS-Exploit--Worries OSX has quite a bit of the BSD codebase integrated into it. The stuff runs as part of the kernel itself, not as a user-level process so any vulnerability found in any part of BSD (in the...

    Did I mention I hate windows?

    don't. If there's one thing you should be aware of, it's that pretty much every Unix or unix-like OS has rootkits out there. Since OSX DOES utilize a number of true unix apps and whatnot under the surface, you had better believe that those vulnerabilities, when found, can affect OSX.

    Did I mention I hate windows?

    funny thing about all this win32/64 hate... OSX has rootkits in the wild. Chances are one of your machines has already been rooted and you know nothing about it. Your machine is likely a part of a large botnet and is sending out spam or DDoS attacks as you read this. By and large, most...

    Laying out samples onto keys in FL Studio?

    FL Studio has had an audio editor (Edison) included since FL7. If you must go for an external app, then cop Audacity. http://audacity.sourceforge.net

    I don't think there's a current processor that DOESN'T support x86-64. Even Celerons are 64 bit now.

    I've used a lot of Gigabyte boards in the past, but my last one has me off of them for good. Gigabyte used sub-standard electrolytic caps for the VRM's on AthlonXP and early Athlon64 motherboards. I know this because I have one with 4 bad caps that I'll have to replace myself and apparently is...

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009173 ^^^ That monitor will give you pretty much all the desktop real estate you need to display your mixer and sequencer at the same time with room left over.

    not necessarily. If you're running Win64, then starting with 8GB ain't a bad idea, but only "because you can"; you still don't NEED 8GB for anything. BTW, it's always upgradeable even if you use up all of your slots.

    if that's all you're using then an old P4 could do the trick. I know my 3GHz P4 runs FL 9, Sonar 7, and ProTools 7.3 quite well. Now... unless you're doing stuff with massive plugin counts and a trucklooad of streaming sampler plugins, most garden variety PC's out there will be just fine. If...

    What do you like about FL?

    my analysis from 2007: https://www.illmuzik.com/forums/showpost.php?p=208717&postcount=39 I STILL use FL Studio. I hve eveything I need there. The sequencer is top notch (STOP CLICKING THE LITTLE BUTTONS AND PLAY SOME SHIT!), the included synths are top notch. The one thing I don't like is...

    Ardour - Open Source DAW

    it STILL doesn't have a sequencer. Been screwing with Ardour for several years. Until it has a fully fleshed out sequencer, I'll pass on it.

    that super mellow rhodes sound...

    aiight... I'm done with trying to get this sound. Listen to this track: The extra mellow rhodes sound that comes in at 1:37 (it's there throughout the track, just more obvious from there on). How the hell do you get that sound??? I've been trying with Lounge Lizard 3 and Emagic EVP73...
