Seriously just delete this video there’s so much misinformation in this. Lost it when you said a windows computer is perfect for apple’s Logic Pro. Logic is Apple exclusive it doesn’t run on windows 🤦🏻♂️
The thing is, to run these plugins like U-HE Diva, repro 1/5, and other analogue sound emulation plugins. You need at least a server cpu with 50 cores. Yes, many hit songs where bare simple in essence. But keep this in mind while reflecting on your needs. I make melodic techno with and I7 12700KF desktop cpu, And I need to freeze/bounce the shit out of it when using the cream parade plugins Laptops use way lower wattages, So they even perform worse then desktop cpu, even with an efficient laptop chip. Not to mention, if you use alot of kontakt libraries... 16 gb of ram is too low. As it stores the library files you use in kontakt on the RAM. For most vst's 16gb ram is enough though, as they don't use that much Ram. I'm glad to help as this video is one big misinformation. I'm an intermediate to novice producer. -SacredRiver
To run u-he virtual instruments successfully with other virtual instruments at the same time, you'll need a ram of 32 G. Am using the old HP Zbook 15 G4, windows 11, 4 cores core i7 , 64G , 3T hard drive(1T each on three 3slots). I run several virtual instruments at the same time without any cpu spike with studio V6. The fan noise too is low . Over 150 tracks with less than 24% cpu usage
I would strongly discourage the XPS line for music production. It works great for graphics, but I've had constant issues with audio dropouts while using Cubase and other DAWs. I've reached out to Dell support and they've yet to fix the issue.
I'd the same experience with a brand new DELL Inspiron 2-in-1 (i5 13. Gen CPU, 16 GB RAM) that I wanted exclusively for Ableton Live. The performance was horrible and no ASIO driver worked well with the Realtek sound hardware.
Drop out! Like what? And have you tried other pc and you had no issue or the same with others? Cubase and most daw suffering delay and third party vst crashes. You need to have audio interface if you want produce music professionally because the laptop sound card and software is not designed for such tasks. Thanks
I've never had a laptop before but really want to get into music production! I have a budget of up to £450 so am considering the Acer Aspire 5 i5, 14". But as I'm a noob to this, I wasn't sure if the i5 slightly smaller screen would make much of a difference compared to the i7, 15.6" featured in this video. Please could I get your thoughts on if the smaller cheaper one can still offer a great experience? Thanks!
Wow I've just found another one on discount, the Asus Vivobook 15 X1500EA 15.6", i5, 8GB ram, 512 GB SSD. Is this better than the Acer Aspire 5 with the specs listed above? 😅Laptop finding is tricky!!
There's one very important aspect not mentioned here... how quiet/ noisy these laptops are in comparison.. fan noise. For music production when we record instruments with microphones near the laptop it becomes a very crucial factor..
Having said that, thank you for this video. I've been looking for a new laptop. Just sharing some insight which may be beneficial if you cover more music production materials in the future.
I really need opinions to know exactly which laptop I'll buy, I need one for music production and editing videos, my budget is $2500 dollars, could you guys recommend me one in specific. I appreciate it.
I’m honestly hard stuck on what to get. Ion wanna mess up and get a shitty laptop and have it crash on me while I’m in the middle of recording and mixing.
512 GB SSD is not "plenty of storage space" when talking music production, especially if you're recording audio, or bouncing your MIDI tracks to audio. I've produced a singular albums that close in on 500 GB of storage. Music production does not require any sort of special graphics component, so bringing up a discrete GPU as a selling point for music production is pointless. The added heat, power consumption and fan noise from discrete GPU's is considered a negative, not a positive. "Advanced visual processing" is NOT an "essential component for music production" No laptop speaker is "decent for audio monitoring" Those are the false statement just about the first product. If you're just getting into music production, please do not learn anything from this video. The product specs they mention are true (to my knowledge) but their talking points about each of them in terms of music production is nonsense at best.
230w tdp for that gigabite aorus 17x is insane (low battery life incoming) and generates a whole lote of noise..which you DON'T want when working on AUDIO. the more wattage needed, the lesser ideal it becomes: expecially these days where power costs are very high world wide. I would suggest the "tech team" to look at low wattage, yet powerful enough for serious work alternatives more. I wonder if you guys actually used the machines you present, for actual audio usage (serious music projects that is). I even wonder if you make music at all. Very bad video, full of stock ads footage: red flag!
He don't know what is saying. It's obvious that he is sponsored by Intel and Nvidia, he said Intel procesor with rtx 4090. It's a good processor but 4090 is just waisting money for music production laptop. Also, he didn't even recommended AMD even once. And currently zen 4 CPUs are insanely good for music production.
@@Techfluencer boy you don't know shit. You picked up only Intel laptops, mostly the most expensive ones and you recommended them? Where are AMD laptops? Zen 4 laptops, even u series is ahead of 13 gen Intel laptops. Do some real research before you recommend stuff to people.

He may refere to it as Hacknitosh which they install Mac OS on Windows computers. Not sure if it’s compatible though. Or the script written by Ai

@@fatuyiibikunle4813 yeah mate, could be the ram maybe.
I will look into it,
Maybe I was wrong
How about a Macbook Air m1 with 8gb of RAM?

@@charliesalter3744 Go for a bigger screen as you will be needing that.
For processor, i5 is sufficient. Plus you will be needing plenty of storage.
I have an Aspire 5 i5 with 8gb ram. It struggles heavily. I have to render alot of my synths for it to function..
I have a Dell XPS 15 year 2018.
How do you connect a sound/dj mixer to the laptop using the
usb-c ports, mic port or thunder ports?
Might wanna get an adapter.
minute 3:20 logic pro in a PC?
i just stopped the video after listening to that.😂

@@NicHeuwGuitar We are already working on multiple music production laptop content, expect a video soon!

You might as well just go with a MacBook.
Razer Blad is a good alternative as well.

Select your preferences first, then get the one that matches those preferences.
macbook is greaAt if its just music ur doing
I use the old HP Zbook 15 G4, core i7, 4 cores 64 G Ram, 3T hard drive with studio one V6. With over 150 tracks the cpu% was 24% .
How is the experience with it?
Hey, the MacBook has a different link. Great video 👍🏼
this guy is technically incompetent, non of the mentioned points bare any relevance to specifically music production.
Which laptop do you recommend?
Can I use HP 1030 G2 core i5
No
Might not be enough.

Zen book for Logic Pro 😂😂
