Hey all, this is my first time posting on here, however I could really use as much advice as I can get on this subject from people who hopefully know more than me about this topic. I currently have an early 2015 model MacBook Pro(that I got long before I knew anything about mixing). It has a 3.1 GHz Processor, and 16 GB of memory. With this in mind, what should I be looking for when it comes to a computer to use for mixing(in terms of memory, processing speeds, and whatever else would be important to need to know in terms of computer specs)? Is my MacBook soon gonna be too old where I would need to replace it, or would I have a good amount of time still left on it where I could use it for several years? I'm not needing a full fledged professional mixing computer(as in the highly expensive full fledged Macs used in full fledged pro recording studios), just something that I can have and take mobily to work on projects. As of now with my computer, I've been able to work on projects in Logic Pro X pretty comfortably seemingly without any problems. I had tried to get into video editing at a certain time, but didn't/couldn't really do that too well(didn't have the time to figure it out for the specific project, also wasn't sure if my computer could fully handle it or not). My main concern here is that I would want to try to replace my computer sooner than later if it is either currently outdated, or if it is going to soon become outdated(so I can get ahead of the curve if you will instead of having to respond later if something happens). However, I really don't have a good enough sense of what I should be looking for, or how MacBook pros age from a usage and yearly model standpoint. Any advice on this would be welcomed; and I'll be happy to provide any additional information or context as needed or requested.
