Windows can run Pro Tools as good as Mac, so stick to the OS you are used to, unless you are wanting to make a switch for some reason. If you’re already used to Windows and aren’t comfortable with switching then you don’t have to worry about it. Going with Mac does have its perks, but Pro Tools works well on all platforms. You won’t have a difficult time resolving any problems you encounter, and the developers focus a bit more on the Mac community. If you are a heavy user and do not have mobile requirements, then a desktop may be a better fit for you.Ī large part of the Pro Tools community uses Mac, so there is a lot of community support if you go with macOS. 16 GB as a minimum is highly recommended but 32 GB will be ideal. In our testing, we did use a laptop with 12 GB of RAM and it did feel like we were pushing it. Even Pro Tools recommends 32 GB of RAM, but there are users who even run it on 8 GB and somehow manage their workflow, it is however not recommended that you do so. You will also need at least 16 GB of RAM, but getting more is always better to ensure you never run into any stutters or crashes. In any case, external storage will almost always be required. The best case would be to go with a 1 TB SSD and buy an additional 5 TB storage for archiving projects or having them off your computer if you do not intend to work on them right away. However, it is a hassle and you’d rather fork a little more ( around $1000 or so) and save yourself the trouble while working on projects. under $500), you can get a laptop with 512 GB of SSD storage and purchase an external HDD drive for storing your project files.
