Crack them knuckles and gimme the skinny on the best value in a laptop for my buddy who wants my advice on putting together a music computer. I haven't gotten a budget number from him yet, but his needs are not great. Audio only, no orchestral samples, no Superior Drummer, no big use of soft synths, no zillions of plug-ins. Really, if he ever gets past 4 tracks, I will be pleased and surprised.
And don't worry, I will be recommending a Scarlett 2i2. ?
So, based on the grand thread o'waggin' weenies, I am leaning toward recommending something Ryzen powered. 16G of RAM, 500G SSD. External 2TB spinny drive for archiving projects.
That's all I got so far. As a consumer of processors (all hardware, really), I let the enthusiasts and gamers buy the highly expensive latest ones while I lay back and get the ones that were among the fastest last year and are now good deals.
