    Dedicated Laptop for Music Production

    Lenovo was formerly IBM so they are decent. Honestly that CPU you have is not bad and a used Mac will not be an improvement. AND if you use FL studio I would stay away from Apple. Although personally I prefer Mac's. What audio interface are you using? It could be as simple as that.

    MPCX

    this does look awesome, I hope the pads are decent. I have not been impressed with their pads in a long time. But I still have to say I like Live+Push and a laptop still brings more to the table. But I can't wait to get my hands on one to try it out.

    Tutorials 6 Ways You Can Improve Your Mixes And Make Them Awesome

    Who usually listens in mono? I would totally disagree with that statement. If you are in the car its stereo, if you have your headphones in it's stereo. You listen to the radio it's stereo. Yea no I don't check to Mono anymore. It's boring. I actually learned that trick from mixer man see his...

    What DAW(s) Do You Use?

    Man I have used all of them over the years and they all have pluses and minuses. I love Logic, but I prefer cross-platform apps. Reason has been my baby forever and continues to be. Cubase has probably the most in depth midi editor, but it's probable overkill for hip hop. Studio One from...
