I've been playing with audio on my laptop, which is an older machine. It's been great fun for me to explore the world of VST hosts, softsynths, and effects. Music production has been a great love of mine going way back. From time to time I've been able to own some music hardware. Changing financial circumstances meant I would have to sell it off and replace it later on when I could. The power and affordability of computer-based audio these days just amazes me.
There are a few things that work well with my old laptop. But I also encounter limitations in what the hardware can handle. When I get some money ahead I plan to get a more up to date machine. From what I read on audio forums, a more current computer should let me handle multitrack audio without the hardware limits getting in the way of what I want to do: composing, songwriting, arranging, producing, scoring, and mixing.
Over the long term, I'd love to add a Muse Research Receptor to my shopping list. That will take a bigger budget than I have now! I'd love to see the Muse folks collaborate with some of the DAW software vendors (Steinberg, Digi, MOTU, Cakewalk etc.) to make a plug & play recording/mixing rack, that does for recording what Receptor does for synths and effects.
If I was rich enough, I'd split my time between a personal office where I could ponder and discuss the Law of One material, and a personal studio where I could express my ideas about it in music.
This is getting a bit away from the Law of One discussion so maybe I should start a music production thread in the appropriate forum.
