Looking at the specs, the Mac Pro is the base 8-core model with upgraded RAM (Tobin said 160GB, but the $9k configuration lists 192GB), the Radeon 580X GPU, and base 256GB SSD. Filmmaker Michael Tobin wants to see what is going on and how it relates to video editing, so he picked up a $700 Mac mini with M1 Chip to compare to his workhorse $9,000 Mac Pro.
Some people have even tried out video editing applications and found them to be leaps and bounds better than older models even through the app translation layer. However, early responses to the new M1 Macs have been shockingly good. Power-hungry NLEs didn’t seem like a safe bet. With plenty of pretty graphics and little actual data or numbers behind them it was tough to see exactly what type of performance we would get-especially considering that most programs would need to be running through emulation at first to even work.
Apple claims their new Apple Silicon chips, beginning with the M1, are the next big thing for computing.
