Of course, this is a вЂњMac thingвЂќ and not relative to Windows folks. The Best MacBook Air For Music Production Tips The Best MacBook Air For Music Production Tips. Keep in mind that it was up until a few years ago that no macbook pro of any kind could support over 16gb of ram and yet people had been creating music on them since the MBP was introduced. The macbook pro has been a favorite platform for music creation for well over a decade due to itвЂ™s power and portability. But then again, itвЂ™s possible to over stress just about any macbook pro no matter what chip is based on if you bury it under enough load. ItвЂ™s worth noting that you can over stress the machine by using just tons of tracks/plugins/non native stuff/etc. The good news is that eventually everything will be Native to the M1 as developers adopt it for music production. From this vid and the others iвЂ™ve seen, the M1 seems to be crazy fast even when running non native software. Keep in mind, he is running OBS and LOGIC at the same time on his M1 Mac. REAPER now has a beta version which is now native to the m1!!! All of the major plugins are working hard to get compatible. However, he puts in several non native plugins and itвЂ™s pretty darn snappy. However, this doesnвЂ™t seem to be the case. So until then, you will be running your other daw and any non logic plugins in emulation which one would expect to wreck itвЂ™s performance. Eventually all of the plugins and daws will be native for the m1 but not yet. The same thing goes for non native plugins. if you run some non native DAW, it has to be translated in real time by something called Rosetta. The thing to remember is that the LOGIC X is written for the M1. He is using several ALCHEMY native vst instruments which can be cpu heavy but they donвЂ™t make a dent in the m1. ItвЂ™s very smooth on the m1 and there are no glitches and the cpu is only at about 30 percent. He shows us how the project performs on his intel MBP first and it fees about like my laptop. ItвЂ™s a CPU heavy test as itвЂ™s so packed with VST instruments and not just recorded audio. My own Macbook pro is a 2012 with 16gb of ram. He also has the same project running on a 2016 Macbook Pro with 16gb of ram. HeвЂ™s got it at 12.2 ms rount trip latency which is pretty snappy. He shows how quick the interface is to respond and it does seem very snappy. He doesnвЂ™t do anything crazy, he just loads a standard project that he would work with and there are a LOT of VST and plugins going. He is using only native plugins which is worth mentioning. This guy is using LOGIC X and using only 8 GB of ram on his M1 mac.

There are lots of vids talking about this. This will increase in the future but for now, will it work? This is because itsвЂ™ pretty much based on the phone platform which is also limited to 16gb of ram (not storage, but actual ram).
