I'm building a home recording studio. What comptuer and software is the best to purchase?
I’m a singer/songwriter and I’ve always recorded professionally with other producers. I write my own lyrics and they’ve made the tracks and then I've just applied my words to them. I've become interested lately in learning how to produce my own music by making tracks from scratch and start up my own studio. I've heard so many different opinions on what computer (Mac or PC) and what software (Pro tools, Logic, Cakewalk, etc.) to buy. Everyone seems to have their own prefrences. How do I go about finding what a good prefrence for myself might be without buying everything?! I don't know if genre of music helps in figuring out but I sing pop/r&b. Which option will provide good options for making tracks from scratch with no live instruments, make nice vocals, and mix well?
Mac. Most audio software updates for Mac months before it's updated for PC. Also look at bench test on Mac computers. The same-speed processor in a Mac will out-perform a PC processor by 20-40%. I've had a Pro-Tools/Mac system for 7 years and will never switch either. Most DAW software is good (Logic, Digital Performer, Pro-Tools). I use Pro-Tools to be easily compatible with other people. Pro-tools is the most expensive and the other programs come with more features out of the box. If you plan on sharing sessions or transferring sessions to-and-from other studios, I would suggest using Pro-Tools.
