Form factor and connectivity I’ve used the Mac Studio at both my edit suite and my home studio. My reviews will always, to some degree, utilize current projects I’m editing. When writing these reviews I try to work hard answering questions that many of us in post-production would ask about these new Macs so I appreciate the trust placed in me to do just that. Part two pitted it against my beloved iMac Pro. Part one of that looked at the new laptop against my old Intel i9 MacBook Pro. I was actually quite surprised to be included in this round of product reviews as I recently did a deep review of the new MacBook Pro with M1 Max for video editors. But you don’t have to buy a Studio Display along with your Mac Studio for use in your edit studio, err, edit suite.

That included a new Studio Display as well since you can’t have a Mac Studio without some kind of display. I was fortunate enough to take delivery of a brand new Mac Studio with the M1 Ultra chip and 128 BGs of RAM for testing and review. That’s when you’ll be crunching through tasks like never before. That is, of course, if your software properly supports the M1 Max or new M1 Ultra chips inside the Mac Studio. You can pull the Mac Studio out of the over-engineered box, plug it in, plug things into it and then go to work crunching through post-production tasks like never before. It’s small, stylish, quiet, loaded with connectivity and very powerful. For diehard Mac users, the Mac Studio might be the ultimate machine for a lot of what we do in editing and post-production.
