For serious home music production, an iPad is just not enough of a beast. What is more many of the major DAWs (Digital Audio Workstation Software) have an iPad app too so you can create ideas on your tablet on the go, and then work in more detail when you get back to your main computer.Īnd Garageband is simply an incredible music production app for beginners, that is completely free. An iPad is so portable, it can be the audio recording and mixing device you always have with you. Is it really possible to base a decent home recording studio around an Apple iPad? Well, given the huge amount of recording gear and apps made specifically for this purpose, the answer is a tentative yes. But, if you are at the stage where you really want to buy a new computer anyway, and you know you want to get into, or extend, home music production, then here are a few things to consider. Nowadays, nearly every computer on the market is good enough to use for basic sound recording, editing and mixing. Your main aim is to get started with something, and learn your craft. But if you’re simply getting started and doing your own music production in your own time, then a reasonable spec budget PC is probably the way to go. And it may take a bit longer to load a VST plugin into your DAW. Yes, a lower budget computer will struggle a little bit with loading softwares and plugins. Instant loading of programs, files, and seamless production, with the ability to render high quality audio without taxing your system. The benefit of a bigger, better, more expensive computer is simply storage and power.
Most modern computers can surprisingly handle the workload for recording, even many of the most basic consumer PCs.
Remember, we are talking about audio processing here. In the area of computers, though, you can be a little bit more flexible than with your other studio gear. Most of us have to make a little budget go a long way.
