I would like to use it as a daily work machine for email and web browsing, but I'm curious if it may be usable for my side gig. I am a recording engineer. I would need it to run jack+ardour to record up to 16 track simultaneously @ 44.1k. Does anyone see any reason this won't work? The storage world be a concern. I would probably place sessions and tracks on USB drives.
Audio recording in and of itself isn't a cpu-heavy task, so while the PBP doesn't have a ton of horsepower it will probably handle that alright. Make sure your storage device can handle the throughput though.
Doing editing, however, is not something I would recommend.
