Is 8 GB enough for music production on the MacBook Pro with Apple M1 CPU? In Apple M1 for music production episode 2 I answer some of the important questions you asked in my previous videos on the Apple M1 tech. Is 8GB enough? Does Serum and Omnisphere play well with the Apple Silicon M1 CPU? Furthermore, I talk about the PROS and CONS of the MacBook Pro 13" M1 (2020). Hope you enjoy my MacBook Pro M1 review!

@GearStuffandThings 3 года назад

@@_SZNN I would over the Pro if you aren’t doing super heavy work loads with video sucks as RED or 6K stuff. Even with that being said 16gig would be fine if you stuck with the air. The only real differences between the pro and air in this lineup are the fans and Touch Bar. The Touch Bar is silly and the use of fans is almost not a thing if you arnt doing super heavy processing. I’ve had no issues at all. I do plan to get a 16gig Mini for heavier work loads :)

So nice to see this little experiment, Mattias, thank you! Though I'm not really into Apple equipment, it's still so interesting to see the progress and these significant changes in CPU architecture. So yes, glad it seems to open new possibilities for you at reduced pricing! Ready to complete the transition to M1 fully yet?)

@MattiasHolmgren 3 года назад

Oh yes, the M1 performance surpass what I could ever expect. Running OBS recording video AND making music at the same time on a laptop this size, at this price...pffff...it's just ridiculous. Also good for running VS Code, since it's now optimized for arm64 too. Although upgradability is lost, it's still awesome to have the memory in the same package as the cpu and with the arm64 RISC instructions we get less heat. Every time I work on my 2016 MacBook Pro I think, man why the heat....lol M1 Jummy! 🌞

@@MattiasHolmgren Would be cool to see how many instances of Omnisphere you can run at the same time without problems. Like 10 of them, for example. It's a pretty realistic "demo" considering Omnisphere tries to cover everything (bass, piano, pads, drums(?) you name it). Pretty much all the instruments you'd need for a entire track.

@MattiasHolmgren 9 месяцев назад

Hi, connecting your studio monitors to the the XLR / TELE output of your audio interface should not effect MacBook Pro performance in any way. They only thing that would effect MacBook Pro is when you connect / disconnect the USB cable from the audio interface to the computer. Because the computer will handle the connection / disconnection of a new peripheral device. Connecting tele / xlr cables back n forth to the audio interface will not effect performance of the audio interface. So I can't really see what the root of your problem could be. What Audio interface are you using?

I do music production and sound design. a lot of folks say that a lot of ram is a good thing when using vsti with huge sample-banks. On the other hand a lot of cpu-Cores should in theory be a good thing when using a lot of tracks with several vsti and also when using real-time fx on audio and stuff. Should I get the 8c 14' with 32 gig of ram, or rather the 10c 1 4" with 16 gig of ram?

@MattiasHolmgren 2 года назад

I am going to run tests on the M1 MAX 14" 32GB when it arrives in a few weeks to get a better solid answer to your question. But the 8GB 13" M1 already performs excellent! Never had a laptop this cool and with great performance. Love the M1 tech so far! Generally you always want as much RAM as possible to be future proof since it's not possible to upgrade internal memory, while you can always grab external discs for more disc space. Take that into consideration when selecting your next Mac. Thanks Benjamin.

@MattiasHolmgren 2 года назад

@@coose0 hey, yeah I got the M1 MAX 14" MacBook Pro yesterday, and I'm currently installning all software to begin the tests and prepare the comparison episodes. Yeah, like you mention most current videos are not even from music producers, but rather video editors who just load up Logic without knowing what to show / load and compare. LOL I'll be focusing on comparing performance between the M1 and M1 MAX, since, like you know, Intel isn't even close anymore. But I will probably throw in some intel comparison just because it's such a vast space between them. ,) What I can say for now, before any videos, is that I initially like the form factor of the original M1 before the M1 MAX 14". It has a brand new overall design and I've grown so accustomed to the light package of the 13" M1. Insane power in a small package. But M1 MAX will probably have a lot to compensate with regarding raw cpu power performance. The new keyboard is sleek and feels nice. The internal speakers of the M1 MAX does indeed sound much better than previous. FInally you can identify a little bit of bass. Loading projects and updating plugins (when installing new pluggs) in Logic is insanely fast on M1 MAX! ;)

@avimit.g 2 года назад

Thank you so much for the breakdown. Being on a budget constraint I am in a bit of a pickle. To future proof the M1 13' Pro, would you recommend going with 256gb memory and 16gb RAM or 526 GB memory and 8 gb RAM? My style of music takes up a mix of vocals, instruments and vsts like Kontakt, Vital etc.

@MattiasHolmgren 2 года назад

I would suggest going for 512GB SSD & 8GB RAM. The 8GB RAM will take you very far. That said if you are really on a budget go for 256GB SSD and 16GB RAM, you an always extend the disc space with an external disc, but it's impossible to extend the internal memory. But as I said, I own the 8GB model and it's been totally enough this past year. And I do professional work in music, graphics, animation, videos, apps, games, web etc. Note: I just ordered the brand new 14" M1 Max with 1TB SSD, 32GB RAM which will ship in 3-4 weeks! Excited to do an update video comparing the first gen M1 against the brand new M1 Max. Stay tuned for a review. 🌞🎅

@kehindea 2 года назад

8GB is perfectly fine for everyone. If you find you need more juice you're far better off buying a refurbished slave machine for 1/10th of the price of upgrading to 16gb ram. Also don't ever plan to use a laptop long term. Their useable life for production purposes is 5 years as you're more likely to buy the next iterations of the M1. Also it amazes me why people don't freeze audio tracks. Once you've made your composition freeze the track as there is really no need to run samplers or synth plugins live. Free the CPU.

@ToleXMusic 2 года назад

@@kehindea I noticed that some samples sound different especially with added effects like reverb or chain. So thos tends to discourage me from freezing them. I wonder if with the M1 I can still have a productive session without without freezing?

@MattiasHolmgren 2 года назад

Yes, I never freeze because of cpu issues during production. Only when I need to work with audio rather than midi. :)

@MattiasHolmgren 2 года назад

In Logic, make sure you have the advanced tools available in preferences. Right click a track, select Track headers. Tick ”Freeze” so its available to select on the tracks. Now you can click the freeze icon on whatever track you want to freeze and save up CPU. ;)

@MattiasHolmgren 3 года назад

8GB is always 8, so its limiting in the way you can max out running multiple apps with heavy images, video etc. But the mem usage of Big Sur is very clever and I never ran into mem issues even though I run OBS, Logic at the same time... And often VScode + Affinity Designer too. Since the mem is in the same package as the cpu core its very swift mem swapping between cpu and RAM thus its a faster computer in many ways. I don't have insight into the actual OS handling of memory. But the swift internal ssd and mem close to cpu makes it speedy. I also think Big Sur has a clever way of handling the mem between the apps, when you shift apps. Probably some nifty caching going on too. All in all its a huge leap in performance. And I actually dont feel that the 8GB feel low when working. It can't be compared to precious gen. Its a new design in the M1 architecture. I have 64 GB / 128GB on my stationary desktop Macs and they don't feel faster. But I can obviously load up several huge sample libraries, running video editing and gfx edit big images at the same time. That said, we humans often work on mostly 1 or 2 tasks at the same time. 😉 Apple M1 wins in my eyes. Cant wait to see the next gen of Apple Silicon when it comes out. 🌞

Hi, what’s your recommended usb hub. Any preference. Thanks!

@MattiasHolmgren 3 года назад

Hi for the Apple M1 I do recommend grabbing the Belink Thunderbolt Dock Core(affiliate link): amzn.to/2SMNtoZ The reason is that this dock lets you charge your MacBookPro via the usb-c port on the Dock Core Hub. At the same time you can connect external display to it + Usb 3.0 gear. The reason I chose the Thunderbolt Dock Core hub, is because I need at least ONE free Thunderbolt port on the Macbook Pro 13" Apple M1 2020 to connect the UAD Apollo Twin X. I have some other hubs, but they don't support good USB 3.0 and usage of all these ports at the same time. So this hub is awesome! A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for in this case. I'll post a review video of it sometime. Hope the info helps!

My advice is to always hook the UAD Apollo device directly to one of the Thunderbolt 4 ports on the MacBook Pro. And use the Belkin Thunderbolt hub for all other connections: power, external display, usb-3 discs, etc. You can power this hub via external Mac charger, it also further charge your Mac with up to 60W!

Single core performance that equals or betters the Ryzen 5950x which is the best of x86 and faster than anything from Intel. Runs totally silent and cool which will ensure long life. Sips power at 18 watts total system power. And all this at a price point of, well, if you're buying the little Mac Mini you can get them as low as $599 from the Apple refurbished store, hmmm yeah I think you could say it's total game changer. You get better single core performance on this than the fastest Intel macs at the moment (the i7 2020 imac). Also a quick clarification about the Thunderbolt ports. Yes there are only two but each of those ports have a dedicated PCIe lane and each is on its own separate bus. This means 40gbps throughput per port for a total of 80gbps total. That's a hell of a lot better than the 27" 2020 iMacs which have two ports but only one bus so 40gbps total throughput. Great machines. There's never been this much performance at this price point. My M1 mini embarrasses my 27" 2020 iMac i7 for music production.

Yes, the my intel MBP 2016 is 15" 16GB, and my M1 is 13" 8GB. BUT the M1 still outperforms the old intel mac. ;) I'm glad we finally can get macs at a more reasonable price. Thanks!
