can I make music with this thing?

Yeah. You can sample the noise of it hitting the wall.

>>58539650
Probably.

Play it like a drum, OP. Do it.

>>58539650
it can probably let you ssh into one that can

ya but you have to put OSX on it first

>>58539650
/g/ loves to hate on Apple, and for good reason, but OSX is probably the best operating system for music production. Look up some articles on it.

>>58539650
a hammer can make anything sing... including that shitpad.

for starters is fine, once you know what you're doing you will end up getting a mac for pro tools

>>58539650
If you are musical, you can make music with anything.

osx, windows, it doesn't matter. pick one, make sure your computer isn't shit, buy a good interface, you'll be fine. if you want to use protools then obviously go with a mac. i can't vouch for ableton enough however, and it is indeed an industry standard of sorts among a shitton of popular musicians. but the choice is yours.

as for op, it depends. this would be fine for module-based tracking (.mod, .xm, .it, etc, look into it if you're unfamiliar). no idea how old that thing is, but if it has a sound blaster card, it might use OPL3, in which case you could do some really really neat FM tracking. as far as "modern" production? no, probably (definitely) not.

You can make music with your dick.

This right here is why macOS/OSX is superior to windows for music production.

When it comes to advanced midi mapping it really knocks windows out of the park.

Im not trusting 3rd party software when it comes to a live setup with a <100 people watching me.

Hell yeah you can. Get yourself dat MilkyTracker, boy.

windows has some advantages too. it's a matter of priorities.
though if you're not good at computers (most people aren't) a mac is a safer choice for music.
