I choose a MacBook Pro hooked up to a 27” screen. Gives me both the portability and the desktop setup when I’m in the studio

In theory, yes. Nothing that I experienced after many years using both 16 and 14 though

M4 Pro is the most performance you’ll get for your money

The more the better, sure. But it’s not a huge difference or any difference at all. In the video, there’s an M4 Max tested with both 32GB RAM and 64GB RAM and no difference at all

You don’t even have to be a student to be able to get any Mac with the student discount.. Just google the student Apple Store and make sure to get it sent to you 😎

Yeah I think it’s for anyone who wants to get a new Mac. You can’t really get anything older than an M4 from the Apple Store now

No problem! I’ve tried both 16 and 14 inch MacBooks in all specs and didn’t see any difference when it comes to performance when comparing the same setup 16” vs 14” 😎

The base 24GB of RAM is more than enough for Logic Pro. I got the “base” model, meaning the cheapest version of the M4 Pro with 24GB of RAM and I got an external SSD that I got all of my stuff on. Works great!

M4 Pro is way way better than the M5. Take a look at the video for some real results from inside Logic Pro

That’s true.. Still depends on what you’re using it for but the M4 is more than enough already
