Hello all, I'm just looking for some advice about my situation. I bought an alienware laptop a while back thinking I was going to use it primarily for gaming and schoolwork but now I've gotten into producing music and have been primarily doing that now rather than gaming. My predicament is that all I have is USB 3.0 ports and it seems that NOTHING likes 3.0 ports especially on windows 7. I really want to get an s2 or s4 but they are not compatible with my rig.
I guess my question is that if I am only going to be using my laptop for music production should I try and make the switch to IOS or look for alternatives as far as getting a compatible controller(among other things)?
I've only been producing music for about a year but its become a passion of mine and I don't want to be waisting money on a setup that is going to be giving me problems all the time. On the other hand I'll be taking a serious loss on a very expensive laptop if I do make the switch.
Any advice or thoughts would be much appreciated.
Sorry for the novel of a thread.....
