Should I limit Macbook Pro use only to DJing/Producing?
Is there any value to restricting my macbook pro usage to only DJing and producing - ie Serato and Ableton?
I’m considering installing Photoshop and Final Cut on it, but does more software installations = increased chance of glitches occuring with Serato/Ableton?
I’ve always thought that if there was less software on the laptop then Serato and Ableton were more likely to be error-free and not crash during a gig. Or is this a stupid notion?
I use my MBP for everything (work, photoshop, logic, traktor) it’s never let me down.. a Windows computer wouldn’t either to be honest, as long as you aren’t running something like Photoshop sucking up resources whilst your in the middle of a set.
When you have a gig you really only want to be running essential apps, but other than that, nothing to worry about.
Having the programs installed, won´t slow down your computer. When using PS or FinalCut while jamming on serato and ableton, it might be stressful for the computer.
