Hi guys !

I'm new here...but I hope you guys can help me answer some questions.

I've been in and out of the computer recording world for 8 years now, and I have no problems with my desktop systems, since I build them myself.

Now I have to build a mobile DAW for my church...and I'm sort of lost because I don't know anything about laptops.

Hey everyone.
This thread is for those searching for laptops capable of running Pro-tools M-Powered on a Windows OS.

I would appreciate if the posts are made up of WORKING LAPTOP SETUPS or USEFUL LINKS ONLY. This thread will hopefully save users hours of time when searching. Thanks!

okay bought a new laptop to do some recording with - the internal audio in laptops is horribly substandard, so . . . .

want to go with a Firewire or USB interface. must be portable.

within my budget the choices are:

M-Audio Fast Track Pro
Tapco Link.Firewire
Alesis ilo 14
PreSonus Firebox
E-MU 0404
Lexicon Lambda
others?

hi,
a few years ago i bought a delta 44 for some reason or another and then later on i got a powerbook g4. Lately ive been going through old stuff and found the 44 and all of its contents. Its never been used and i really want to use it. Is there ANY way i can hook it up to my laptop using some sort of external pci slot or something?
Thanks a lot

Hi

I'm thinking of geting an LG S1 laptop for audio recording. Has anyone used an LG laptop for this purpose and if so how would you rate it?

Also, do you think it would be compatible with a Focusrite saffire interface?

I really hope this doesn't make me look like an idiot, but here goes:

i'm wondering if anybody has run into a similar problem.

Hello...
I was wondering if anyone knew what firewire chipset the asus a8jp laptop uses. I'm trying to connect a moto traveler to it and the MOTU isn't even being seen.

I just bought a toshiba laptop and I'm using it for recording. My question is that I currently have my monitors about 6-8 inches away from my laptop. The reason for this is simply space on my desk. I know that around a pc monitor its bad, and more than likely the hardware in my comp. But will it react differnt to lCD screens. Should I not continue with what I'm doing?

Im looking at purchasing a laptop to run Pro Tools. My school and the rest of the world uses Macs. Im not against Macs at all but a $2300 macbook pro seems pretty hard to justify.

$2300
