Re: Suggestion about looping gear
Thanks Douglas, Mark. Although you guys say two very different things
about the DD-20, you both contributed to give me a clearer idea on what
I need. As I said in my first post, I am planning to buy a new laptop
and use that and a midi foot controller instead of a hardware looping
device, but I just can't afford to buy all that stuff at once!
A couple of more question for Mark:
1. how much RAM would you say a laptop would need to function as a
looper? Can you give me a frame of reference?
2. is software for Mac less functional than that on PC? I was planning
to get a Mac, since I have heard from many people that they are more
reliable than computers (no crashes, etc), which is a big deal when you
are performing live obviously. Also, they told me most PCs have longer
delay in handling MIDI signal (sorry this explanation is poor but my
English is insufficient here).
3. If I chose to get a Mac, would the hardware requirements be
different? I mean, would I need more or less RAM or more or less CPU to
do the same thing?
Thank you all very much again, it's great to get to talk to people who
have experience in this field and are willing to share it and so patient
in talking to a newbie! :)
