The MacBook Pro with Retina Display can only be upgraded before buying it. The RAM is not upgradeable at a later point, the SSD might be though at a later time with a product by OWC/MacSales.Honestly the upgradable RAM makes me delighted only about to buy a retina one.
I know its upgradable at the purchase only. I want performance but the MBP cannot upgradable to 16GB RAM ... It's about Logic Pro.

Does it make any senses to buy a RMBP (2.6/16GB/512SSD) for making music ? Honestly the upgradable RAM makes me delighted only about to buy a retina one. But the missing line-out is a shame. I'm confused![]()
What software are you isn't for music production? Chances are it will never be updated for retina or it'll take a long ass time.
I don't think theres a single DAW that's retina ready.
Logic didn't need to be updated for retina, the interface as far as I can remember is clear like a normal retina app. I haven't noticed but ill double check later.
I bought an rMBP specifically for music production, and have been enjoying it so far. I wanted an ultra book with the power of a high end laptop, and the retina is certainly that machine. The CPU can handle a decent number of tracks and effects. I'm primarily a Reason user, so can't speak for other DAWs. I do recommend the 512gb version at minimum to give yourself enough space for mix downs, samples etc.
The ability to scale your res to accommodate a larger work area is great, means you can get more space if needed.
it is most definitely not clear like a normal retina app. get your eyes checked.
