Fitting your computer out with an i7 processor and 16 GB of RAM will give you the ability to run a huge number of audio tracks say in Pro Tools or Logic Pro without any issues. Again this will cost you, upgrading a brand new Macbook Pro from an i5 processor to an i7 will set you back €360 just for the processor and then the RAM upgrade from 8. Even with 20+ tracks and lots of effects i'm not using that much memory. Purchase word for laptop. 8GB should be fine for audio production for the hobbyist as others said. Power editor youtube. Keyboard shortcut for center align in word. I currently have the high end 2011 Mac Mini with.
I have been lately considering updating from 8gb to 16gb.I am just migrating from live8 to live9-64b.
4 8gb Ram Vs 2 16gb
First of all I don't use that much of memory consuming romplers, etc.. Until now AbletonLive8.exe usually consumes between 1.5GB and 3GB of RAM with a ready project but I have had to use romplers sparingly so I expect it to raise a little bit.8gb Or 16gb Ram For Music Production Chart
Anyway I suppose that windows8 uses superfetching/caching to utilize the extra RAM. So what is your opinion, will 8-16 upgrade speed up workflow and project loading times even if your Live.exe would consume between 2-5GB of RAM..?
