Hi all, my first post here.
I am looking for a new laptop to use while Djing. It needs to have very low audio latency and be able to handle outputting audio to a usb soundcard as well as input from a midi usb controller. Using the laptop in nightclubs and pubs it needs to be light and portable but also strong and well built.
I had planned on getting a macbook pro, but then found this website.
Is the below spec overkill for this chassis?
