I run Ableton 10 on it all the time and it’s rock solid and performs very well. That said, my 2014 13" (also loaded - 16GB RAM) is absolutely no slouch and I suspect the “display drivers” are not what’s causing any sort of audio related problems whatsoever unless your plugins are dodgy. I have a 2014 retina iMac (max specs) and it’s still fast fast fast.
If they aren’t matched, you only get the speed boost for the portion that overlap, and in many cases the system might just default to 2x across the whole thing - I’m not sure what the iMacs do in hardware, but you definitely won’t get the max performance from the memory.ģ2GB is plenty for me to be editing 4K video, I don’t anticipate for audio you’ll ever need more than that and that’s 4x8GB which is usually pretty affordable relatively speaking. If they’re all matched, you get theoretically 4x the bandwidth across the entire memory. And we get to do it all over again in six months.
#Daw for mac mac os#
Mac OS Crapalina has gotten some updates and is far better than it was in September, but issues persist for some people in some situations. I use Logitech Anywhere mice and Wacom Tablets. Personally, I don‘t think Apple has ever made a mouse that was any good. The keyboard is ok-at least it doesn’t consume a lot of space. I’d go straight SSD, but the combo of internal and external that works for you is personal and may be multi-variate. I’m not a fan of “Fusion Drive”-too many parts. The main conundrum with the iMac is storage. Order the minimum RAM configuration and order a quality third party RAM kit (OWC RAM is great) for 32-64GB at least. It seems unlikely that Apple will introduce a totally new design at this time-more likely some new processor options. (I use one with Bitwig.) Yes, an update is due soon. The current 27" iMac is, for the most part, a superb computer.
