So, I'm in the process of putting together my home studio (music recording/mastering). I have a live audio company, and I do local gigs with one set of electronics (wireless mix console, newer Macbook, newer iPad control). I'm building the studio around my older gig gear - a physical console (heavier than I want to carry to gigs anymore LOL) that requires an older computer, because the interface software won't work on the newer OS's.
What I need is something that runs an older version of Mac (OS X or earlier) or windows (Windows 10 or earlier). Laptop ideal but tower could work too, I have keyboards and monitors. Must have a firewire connector, a CAT5 connector, and either have 16gb RAM, or be expandable. Cosmetics, don't care. Laptop batteries don't matter, it'll live plugged in. Ditto laptop screen - I have monitors laying around. Storage, immaterial - this is the interface machine, it'll be networked to other machines and a 6TB external drive for storage.
Anyone got an old machine laying around collecting dust?
