I have recently noticed how much I use my computer and how valuable it is to my work. My Mac Book Pro has a 320GB hard drive with 4GB of ram and a 2.16ghz processor. On an average week I will use my laptop to edit video, edit photos, record audio, work on the church website, run guitar effects using Mainstage and of course blogging. I love the versatility of my computer. The best part about my laptop is using it for running my keyboards and guitars for worship on Sunday.
I have an 88 key full weighted M-Audio keyboard that functions as a controller. Through the power of Mainstage it gives the keyboard player in the band the ability to create any sound desired. Another great use for Mainstage is running my guitar rig through it. I usually run my electric guitar into my Line 6 floor Pod into an Alesis firewire to a tube preamp to my MBP and into my Line 6 AMP. Oh what power! I have so many options for sounds and tones. I wish I had a whole day where I could just sit in front of my rig and play and create fun sounds.
I am always worried for the day my computer crashes. I back all my stuff up at home onto a hard drive but the thought of loosing the functionality of my laptop scares me.
