Great Vid… Thanks👍

Hey Bjonar, thanks for making these videos. I’ve been researching whether to upgrade from my MBP M1 Pro / 16 ram for Pro Tools because sometimes it gets bogged down with high track counts and plugins. Your insight on performance cores was very helpful. Thanks again!

I actually bought the M3 Max because of low fan noise both at home and in live performances (I sometimes do pretty silent music). I only work on low battery mode to keep them off and haven't heard them a single time until now even when doing intense audio processing stuff in Ableton! The descision was also influenced by your videos, so thanks for your youtube work here!

Hi Bjornar, you've been releasing your own music online for a while. Is it possible for you to make a video on how to release music, like making them available on Spotify/ Apple music? What are the dos and donts and what should we bare in mind? I am inspired by you and I really want to try to upload my music to streaming platforms 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Hi, I am stuck between a Mac studio and a Mackbook Pro. One thing that puts me off the macbook pros is the fan noise (I had an intel i7 that made lots of fan noise). Do the newer Mseries macbooks suffer from loud fan noise?

Hi! I’ve got an Intel i5 HP and I’m thinking about buying a MacBook (M3). I’d like to start using some musical software such as Ableton or Logic Pro. Do u think that a 256gb and 8gb is enough? Would you buy at least 16gb of RAM instead? I’m thinking about buying a M3 with 16gb, 256gb and an external hard drive. Tell me please your thoughts! Thanks!

Hi !! What is the specs of your PC that you are using to produce ? Can you share with us ? Thanks, and congratulations for the videos!!

I can guarantee that there is nothing music production wise that can’t be done on M2 pro 12 core chip. There’s no point in spending more money, 8 performance cores (4 efficiency) with 16gb ram and 1Tb ssd is a perfect music production laptop in my opinion.

Doesn’t look like we’re getting M3 Mac Studios so might as well get the M2 Max now and then in a couple of years upgrade to whatever is the newest one.

The only thing that annoys me about windows laptops are the fan noise. I have a decent laptop, but once you stress it the fans kick in like crazy at times. Oh well.

I had a Mac Pro 12 core 192GB. Then i7 PC 32GB. Then Hackintosh 32GB i9. I've just recently bought an M2 Pro Mini and it's perfect. I can run Spitfire BBC Orchestra and other projects with Superior Drummer 3 and numerous synths. It's by far the best DAW I've had since 2009

You could also buy some hardware and take the load off your computer. Buy a cheaper laptop/desktop and spend the difference on some hardware. Just another idea.
