Laptop recommendations for Music Production?
  • Maybe we can keep all the 'whubout macs' comments contained as replies to this comment 😆

    I've used a little M1 macbook air since they came out for music production stuff and they're just so unreasonably good. That and Reaper will get you very very far. Audio stuff isn't such a heavy lift that you need crazy hardware like gaming or other graphic intensive workloads. Mine is finally starting to show its age when really piling up the more modern VSTs, so I'll probably get an M4 air when they come out.

    I use a UA Apollo X6 as an interface, but I'd probably go for one of the more capable MOTU ones if I got another one. The MOTU M2 is a great little interface that I use on both my mac and PC as well, and I'd highly recommend it.

  • Elysian production facility in Georgetown shut down by Anheuser-Busch after unionizing
  • Yeah, I can ask. That facility is tiny - from what I understand it only makes what is sold there? The 'investment' noted in the article is bad faith key jangling meant to distract from the relatively way bigger job loss at the actual production facility. I can't imagine there's capacity for many transfers.

  • And if you personally know of any work available involving technical writing, logistics/procurement, industrial process data management, recipe scaling, or similar stuff, please let me know because a really good friend of mine is out of a job because of this union busting bullshit

    Speaking for myself, I will never set foot in the Elysian location in Capitol Hill after this, purchase any Elysian beer, or for that matter anything Anheuser-Busch makes.

    Rare Private Tour of Seattle's long-closed Living Computer Museum [Dave's Garage]
  • The 'living' part was all about the computers actually being in working order. I sat down in front of a Xerox Alto there and just played around with it. It was a really cool place. I will never ever ever forgive Paul Allen's estate for closing it down post-pandemic. That and the Cinerama both. At least SIFF took that over, though.

  • Ark Lodge Cinemas in Columbia City facing eviction
  • That stinks. While it's an odd little theater, I love having it in my neighborhood. It makes a great pair with the Beacon right down the road with the Ark Lodge showing mainstream stuff and the Beacon showing all kinds of other stuff.

    Edit: I just want to append that I donated. I hope they survive!

  • Get in, loser
