Default Re: Pro Tools 2021.10 on Mac

Hopefully you know the M1 are not officially supported, basic Pro Tools seems to run OK under Rosetta 2 but that does not mean you won’t run into problems. And you cannot switch to M1 native until Avid, iLok and any plugins you are using all offer an M1/arm binary version.

As others said, forget external drives, that is ancient advice, which it is embarrassing Avid has not updated/corrected. The fastest/most reliable storage for Pro Tools on a MBP is the internal Ultra fast PCIe/NVMe SSD… and since these are not upgradeable try to buy the largest possible internal SSD you can, even at Apple tax/extortion pricing.
