Using pc for beat making and mac for recording.

[BigCHeefa]

I have a Hp Pavilion Slimline with Reason 5.0,fl studio 10,and pro tools 9. I have no External hard drive so i worry about losing projects also all these programs slow down my pc. What i would like to do is buy a External Hard drive and a Macbook so i can record with a duet 2 on the mac but make my instrumentals on pc but save both on the same external hard drive. Will this be able to be done without any complications?

Shouldn't be a problem..make sure u format the ext HD for mac an pc ..I think FAT32 format if I'm not mistaken..

The same way you're going to make a beat in FL or Reason and fly the audio to a Mac and into Protools can just be done on your PC. I fail to see the logic in what you're trying to do here.

^^^Agreed. I'd just update PCs and be done with it all. Alot cheaper than going the Macbook route as well.
