Man, when i see this i'm even more happy that i bought a Mac Pro 2019. It's expensive but i don't want to miss it anymore in my life! I'm very grateful that i have this machine by my side. It runs cool while being quiet! Which is the most important thing for me since i produce music as well. I also do video editing and graphic (web) design So i'm more then good with my Mac Pro. Even though i know it's overkill for what i do, i'm absolutely locked in for the next 10yrs. But anyway, it depends on your workflow and what you want to do of course.

@Rialas 4 года назад

I’m running the same setup 2016 MacBook Pro 16gb, caldigit, and RME. Mine also started to get really hot especially with final cut running. I solved the problem by getting a cooling pad for the Mac. Made huge difference in performance.

@tiffanyonwudinanti 4 года назад

RIALAS can you put an amazon link to your cooking pad ?

@dulistanheman 4 года назад

What do you think the RME USB 2.0 compare to Thunderbolt in term of latency. I contemplating between both, thank you 🙏🏼

@Rialas 4 года назад

Dulistan Heman I have the ufx II. Latency is really low on it. But I now use hardware monitoring using totalmix, no latency. and it’s easy to set up presets for different situations, I haven’t tried thunderbolt interfaces.

Your 2010 iMac lasted 10 years? Mine started majorly going down hill within 5 years. Given, I don't think it was very top spec or anything. Now my current Late 2015 27" iMac 5K is still going strong after purchasing it in 2015 for $2,300. It's given me a good, good amount of time and still very usable. I current have a base model M1 Pro 14" MacBook Pro that I use on the side/to-go if needed. I'm wanting that sweet 30-32" iMac Pro with mini-LED. It may cost me ~$5k, but it will last me another 10+ years and having a mini-LED 5-6K display will be so worth it. What sucks is that it is very true that you cannot unsee 5K. Anything less it bleh to me now...

@francissreckofabian01 4 года назад

My venerable Mac Pro is closing on it's 10th birthday. Like you I can't upgrade to 10.5 etc. I was talked out of buying a new Mac Pro by my brothers in January. However its time. I will buy a basic model and swap out for cheaper RAM & HDs. I'm looking forward to Thunderbolt. I use 2 X displays but I will buy an ultrawide display for Logic and keep the other 2 displays for other things. Not to mention my 2011 11" Mac Air and Ipad will be part of the system. Spending money this year.

@humbleprogress1226 4 года назад

it's not everyone's thing but ever considered hackntosh? I wanted to get a new mac as well and the 2019 mac pro was the only one that offered the upgrade ability I desired. Got a better mac pro built for literally half the price Apple wanted and threw OSX on it. And comparatively more powerful. 2 Thunderbolt ports, dual 10g ethernet, wifi 6 , 18 cores, 64gb ram, it's all here. All that money saved can add a lot to your studio. In my case it's also buying me an ultra-wide, a studio desk and room treatment for the price of one mac pro. Just throwing it out to you!

@dGb_music 4 года назад

Humbleprogress i was considering going from MBP mid 2012 to 2020 Macbook Air. Sugguestions? Thanks.

@humbleprogress1226 4 года назад

djSonnyBlack hmmm my worries with MacBook Air is it may lack enough power in real world use. Also tried working on laptops. It’s tough if it’s your main computer and not your “on-the-go” computer. Heat, noise, etc...are all factors. I’d see if you could build a desktop and hackintosh that. Or if it’s an option just use windows (it’s improved greatly). Either way, you’ll have a lot more juice. Love the MacBook Air but power is not it’s strength...which will be critical when you start adding lots of vst’s/plugins.

@dGb_music 4 года назад

Humbleprogress Thanks for ur detailed reply. My mac guy that does graphics, suggested an Air with a monitor and external drive over iMac 27in 2020. I already have a monitor and the mbp 2012... Considering imac 27 or MBP 2020.. I’m still on Mojave too. I’m not as savy to for Hackintosh, I’m under the Mac spell.😉 should i just get the 2020 MBP?

@humbleprogress1226 4 года назад

@@dGb_music The 16 inch MBP is a legit piece of hardware, good for the studio. So is the imac 2020. Again, it were me I'd always go desktop/imac form over laptop for some of the reasons I mentioned above. Unless you're ACTUALLY making records on the go and take your laptop studio to studio, a laptop over desktop wouldn't make much sense. If you're stuck on a laptop and funds are a concern and you can get the 2013 MBP, but make sure you're getting the i7.

@shockwavestudios2958 4 года назад

Same thing happened to me, I just decommissioned my 2010 iMac’s and upgrading to newer Macs. MacBook Pro’s as well. So my 2 iMacs will be replaced with duel computers monitors. Also faster processing and more ram. Yeah usb 2.0 was slow. USB 3.0 or better and thunder is the way forward.

@MPP9600 4 года назад

Couple quick things: 1) Yes, the fan in the laptop runs hot and pretty much all the time. Adjusting it in the settings is an option, but the more you drive the software with all the plugins, it will run hot and the settings adjustment may not keep up with the need for cooler air. An inexpensive fix might be to add a separate fan plate that plugs in via USB where it will force cooler outside air against the entire bottom of the laptop. Mine REALLY helps with this issue. 2) You mentioned having Catalina as your OS on your laptop. Everyone MUST make sure that this OS will work with your software. It has been a MAJOR source of frustration and incompatibility with many of the software environments, including plugins. So maybe one thing will work with this OS, but another thing that used to will not. And some have said that they cannot get any music/production software to work at all. Developers are working hard on this but it is a slow process for some. So DOUBLE make sure your software that you use, including the latest version, WILL in fact work with Catalina. One thing I wold strongly suggest is that if you are going to go with Catalina, install ONE piece of software at a time to make sure it works. Test and retest before adding another app. Just a word of advice from a myriad of producers/musicians. Good luck!

All my respect for MacBook and Apple. I've been working on a top specs MacBook Pro 2015, but this year I finally gave up... OVERHEATING is the No.1 MacBook's problem, so I switched to Desktop PC. No regrets so far! I miss Logic, but the performance on the Desktop PC with proper cooling system is phenomenal. How do you handle overheating and Logic slowing down because of that?
