I would love to know if you’ve had a chance to compare how your template runs on a m4 pro Mac mini vs your Mac Studio? I’m sure that ram limitation would become a factor, but it would be interesting to see if it could handle the same workload. My main concern in steering clear of the m4 chips atm is the OS. Some software and plugin companies aren’t even fully compatible with Sonoma yet.

Cool thanks for sharing! - but I'm surprised that one could get away with 64GB of Ram. That's what I have on my M1 and just opening Cubase with a template of around 800 disabled tracks takes up more than half of that. I'm not getting quite playable latency on this setup currently, so I was planning on more like 128GB RAM at least... so you think the extra CPU will compensate? Any ideas welcome! Thanks a bunch David

The new Mac Mini M4 with the M4 Pro has way faster single core score than the M2 Ultra and even has faster Multi-core score. You can now get a killer Mac for composing for $2399 with 64GB of RAM and a 1TB internal SSD. And the size of it is incredibly small. Just amazing!
For those of you who watched my Mac for Composers video, I don’t recommend the M2 anymore but the SSD speed tests and RAM discussions are still useful.
