Which laptop for Reaper
I'm getting Reaper to set up a home studio.
I've been recording on a portable unit for two years, and since I'm required to get a laptop for studies this fall I figured I might as well get one that works for home recording. I don't think it's in my budget to get two separate computers.
I think I have decided on the CPU, RAM and SSD requirements.
I understand that the laptop itself should have good build regarding USB ports, have good results on LatencyMon tests and high sustained performance without the cooling fan sounding too much.
Only I don't know much at all about which laptop models meet any of those latter requirements. It needs to be Windows, due to the study platform.
So, what are you running Reaper on and how is it working out? What did not work out? What have you heard on this?
I already own a handed down Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 G1 audio interface. So I guess the laptop should have USB 2.0 Type C?
Looking forward to get started!
