I have a pc, im interested inabelton but someone told me its only good for recording mixs on pcs, i want to produce, i need a mac

Thats not true, thousands of dj's use ableton on macs. And it works fine for them.

They're the same for each platform.

Sorry i just realised i didnt word my thread very well.

So it doesnt matter if i install it on a mac or a pc, i will be able to use every feature?

Why is it that mac are considered superior for music production?

Or are they better when it comes to more comprehensive, proffessional music production programs?

As a PC user and fan, even I admit that the MAC has it over the PC for musical editing and video work. It's a more edit friendly intuitive platform for producers, remixers and in general those who do "artistic" work...

I am looking at a Mac Book Pro so I can have my cake and eat it too!!!!

So are you saying they are siply more user friendly?

And to confirm, i cant do anymore with ableton on a mac, than what i can on a pc?

I think MACs are harder, because I haven't used them. As far as Ableton goes, it's the same on both PC/MAC for use. You don't gain on one over the other..

I have Ableton 6 running on a PC at home and an iMac on the road. The iMac takes a ton more abuse than the PC but yet I still work faster on it. It's the far better machine for Ableton, for me.

I should also point out that I come from a PC backround and this iMac is the only Apple product I've ever bought and I'm no zealot on either side of the PC vs Mac debate - I just use what works.

Just gonna add my tuppence worth... There are practically no virii {is that the plural for virus?, I know how much Pulse hates bad grammer} for Mac's....

I think its actually viruses & also alot of companies have started to make there products for mac aswell & not just pc

I'll knock on your pluralization of "Mac's" instead of "Macs". Virii is correct.

Haha, I had to have one in there {not their or they're } didn't I?! One day Pulse, we shall live in a world where people will speak really really.... em... goodly!
