Sort of, the amount of (and perhaps the speed of) RAM present in the laptop can also come into play. Recording with a cheap soundcard can result in regular gaps in the recorded audio since cheaper soundcards can't handle the audio in memory and recording at the same time. It's very annoying if you intend to use the laptop for recording audio.

I dunno exactly what you should look for in a soundcard to avoid this though...


You only need lots of RAM if you are loading a lot of sample libraries.

Storing to/streaming from harddrive is also possible, but way slower than storing in memory. The good thing is you get more free memory available if you do that.

How do you think they make electro house people? With their asses, they fart and amplify it through a modified aluminum coffee can and what is the end result? Success.

I thought everyone was using the same sample of a frog fart?

Dont get him a macbook. As others have noted, a desktop (if an option) is the way to go. If not, toshiba makes a nice line of affordable and serviceable notebooks. Im running one right now dual booting XP and Ubuntu. Buy a cheap one and throw some RAM in there yourself. I now have a macbook quality machine at half the price.
