Best DAW(& setup) for Macbook Pro i7 2015

[mothmonsterman]

Have the latest Macbook pro retina thing.

Need:
create/pull samples from external devices (turntable & such)
extensive library of instruments and prerecorded material
quality midi control/compatibility
Good with synthesizer keyboards etc.
Great with recording samples made by my guitars plugged into [insert best audio-in module for Macbook]


I would like to create hip-hop esque beats and loops so i'll need a big library of ready samples but would also like to play all my instruments externally and craft demos.

am a newb but don't want all that beginner stuff, give me the cold facts ya'll...

p.s. reading that logic has a lot of bugs and something about not being able to edit comps. that have more than 5 tracks? idk it has terrible review and the only good ones seem to come from apple D*#kriders so please lemme know the truth.

Oh shit, you want to edit comps..


Well in that case get studio one and Geist separately. Ultimate sampling drum machine.

I like the workflow of studio one much better than logic. Unless you're like a lot of the people around here who are so upset that it doesn't allow you to quantise every over beat 3 by 12%

I would somewhat agree. I love Reason on my latop as well. Logic isn't bad either. And Studio One is robust and snappy. But the 2 I'd pick if I had to would be Ableton and Reason. personally... O, and Bitwig but the bugs are discouraging.
