Yeah you do! -- nm - Qale Oct 21, 12:56
Does this mean fulltime happened? -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:38
Do you have to? Wouldn't the regular one work for it? -- nm - spamlet Oct 21, 12:21 15
- My laptop is fine for bookstore stuff but it's like 5 years out of date..and can't handle what I may need to be doing -- nm - Remlik Oct 21, 12:25 14
  - But I don't think you'll need one of the new ones. I bet the M1 Air would probably be able to do it. - spamlet Oct 21, 12:30 13
    - And I always, always suggest going to the Apple website and looking at the refurb stuff. - spamlet Oct 21, 12:32
    - right on. I'm talking with the radio station engineer/it guy about it -- nm - Remlik Oct 21, 12:32
    - In my case the original M1 Air and Pro don't work because the ports disgust me -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:31 10
      - gimme all the ports! i have to hook in a mixing board -- nm - Remlik Oct 21, 12:36 5
        
        The original M1 units have USB-C ports (4 for the pro). The new M1Pro and M1Max units have thunderbolt, hdmi, headphone, and SD card ports - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:39
        
        We use an item like this to interface between our Mac and sound board at church -- (link) - oblique Oct 21, 12:38 3
        
        right on. thank you -- nm - Remlik Oct 21, 12:41 2
        
        second this.. just get an interface. i really like the Focusrite scarlett series. -- nm - saugerties daugerties Oct 21, 12:43 1
        
        I think mine at home is a Behringer which now that I look at it has a cheaper lineup than Presonus -- (link) - oblique Oct 21, 12:45
      - port snob -- nm - decline Oct 21, 12:31 3
        
        I just ... hate ... dongles! -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:33 2
        
        Including your own? -- nm - Qale Oct 21, 12:56 1
        
        No end of trouble. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 13:01
Brace yourself. Over $2500 US plus a 1-month-plus wait time, for the new M1Pro and M1Max ones. -- nm* - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:16 4
- that's what I figured. -- nm - Remlik Oct 21, 12:29 3
  - I've overcome the sticker shock, but now I'm having wait time resentment, so I haven't ordered yet -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:30 2
    - That will fix it! -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:36 1
      - It's the same as Revenge Bedtime Procrastination. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:38
