Re: Advice On Mac OS update from 10.15.7 --- or not
I am currently running the same machine as the OP (2019 MBP i9) with Catalina.
Latest version of Ultimate and a Avid Carbon. I have been holding off for fear of loosing/breaking something in the update to OS11/12. The only thing that I feel left out with is not being able to run the latest version of Logic and FCP. I have since transitioned from FCP to DaVinci and for the first time in about 30 years I'm not up to date with Logic (Been running Logic/Notator since the days of the Atari-ST). The system is rock solid and does everything I need it to do. But I have a bad case of FOMO |

There is Sidecar, but it doesn't work very well - I wouldn't want to use it while doing anything important. More emojis. A different typeface. Notifications are slightly different. Icons in the menu bar are slightly different...... I use both, and really don't care which is which. Dominic

On another note, monetary value means nothing if something is functional. I upgraded computers when I started getting into video but for Pro Tools, I'm not running live tracking sessions nor using huge amounts of plugins or VIs and don't use sample libraries. Pretty much I record myself and, at most, program drums. There may yet be more Pro Tools life in the 2015 machine!! Thanks very much for your input. |

So I just got a request from a client to do a session in Logic 10.7.x for composition then transfer to Protools for mix. So I might have to do the upgrade anyway. Now my biggest question is do I go BigSur (minimum to run Logic 10.7) or just go straight to Monterey !? MBP 2019 i9 10.15.7, Avid Carbon,Protools Ultimate, Logic 10.6.x |

Re: Advice On Mac OS update from 10.15.7 --- or not
Since posting last I had a situation where I needed to run Cubase Pro 9.5 to exchange a session with a guitarist friend in Nashville. I tried Cubase Pro 9.5 on Monterey and it sucked monkey nutz big time so I bought an external NVMe to USB 3.0 adapter and a cheap 500Gb NVMe drive to install Mojave on, worked like a champ. Might be an option to retain an older MacOS for software compatibility.
