<div>I had wrote about my going MacPro a while go, but not in any detail....<br>
<br>
</div>
So, the best thing that ever happened to my computing needs was to ditch the PC and get the Mac. Ableton Live still crashes here and there (have manage to curtail that a bit with not loading a bunch of default tracks in my template), and it's not that there
are no issues whatsoever with the platform. However, it's just that everything feels so LESS KLUNKY than Windows. There just seems to be a little bit of thought having gone into things, and as an end user I *SO* appreciate that. (I still have the Windows
machine sitting around, and it's mostly used for connecting to work and misc. items like that).<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>For the MacPro I ended up going with the 512 G flash drive, bought a couple of 7-port, AC powered, USB3 hubs, and bought a few 1 TB and 2 TB USB3 drives. My old Echo Audio Firewire8 didn't like playing with the Firewire-to-Thunderbolt adapter, and it
also seemed time to upgrade, which had me buy the Focusrite Saffire audio interface. It was actually a good thing that the Echo didn't work out, as the Saffire, combined with my recently acquired Equator speakers, and adding the MacPro to the mix, was the
BEST thing that's happened to my studio in a while :-)<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>It's been such a nice experience making the switch that there is absolutely no way that I would ever buy another PC/Windows machine. And in fact as soon as I can swing it, I will be looking at another MacPro to add to the family :-)<br>
