Entry level Mac studio good enough
Hello,
My mixes usually have no more than 24 tracks. I use my fair share of plugins. If I got the 32 meg ram Studio, would that be enough for smooth sailing? |

I don't even need to know more about what you're trying to do with those 24 tracks... the answer is "yes." They're very powerful machines.

You could save a lot of bucks and buy a 16GB M1, Mini, Macbook, or imac because they have plenty of punch to run sessions like that, and with a lot of plugins. The RAM limitation only comes into play when you add big VIs, sample libraries etc. or video. Or if you want to run memory-hungry applications simultaneously.

Re: Entry level Mac studio good enough
I’m doing what you suggest with the base M1 Mini and an HDN card. Buy the Studio if you have the money. I’m sure you’ll love it.
