Mac mini M4 Pro vs Mac Studio M1 Max

[@tedantares2751]

I have both M1 Max Mac Studio and an M4 Mac Mini. The M1 Max Mac Studio shows 12.5K CPU score and 98K Metal score in Geekbench 6, while the M4 Mac Mini shows 15K and 57K, respectively. Even though the M1 Max shows a lower CPU score, many apps run faster on it because the RAM data transfer speed is 410 GB/s - 3 times that of the M4 (135 GB/s), and the M1 Max' GPU is almost twice as fast as the M4's

[@Featherlightstudio]

@@tedantares2751 the M1 Max Mac Studio was a huge leap forward in multimedia production. It’s still a beast of a machine, that’s why we are keeping ours for a while longer.

[@thatampguy]

I would have zero issues with using an M1. Except the support duration available.

[@Redmonsterracing]

Only flaw in that is that ram is a parallel operation and you don't hit those numbers until you are maxing things out. It's a valid point, but like all specs, very hard to make generalizations based on it.

[@tedantares2751]

@@Redmonsterracing I write my own software, so I make sure it uses RAM bandwidth to the fullest

[@scottlowell493]

When my 27" imac (intel) dies, the m4 mini with a monoprice 5k monitor will be my next system.

[@DojoOfCool]

I got a Mac Studio M2 Max this year so no plans to upgrade since I do audio only. Also starting to read reviews that the M4's are running hot and fans are kicking in and can get noisy. Going to be interesting to see why the M4's are running hotter. The new TSMC 2nd generation 3nm that the M4 is based on is suppose to run cooler. Or is Apple kicking up the clock speed on the cores because that would make them run hotter too. I have no need for a M4 Mini right now, but maybe in a year my old Intel iMac might need to be replaced so have time to watch how the new M4's do in the coming year.

[@Robroy333]

Still doing advanced video and audio And VFX work Feature films and original music ( Davinci Resolve and Adobe after effects and Blender 3S on a base M1 Mac mini for the last 3 years. No issues. M4 will run circles around it though I’m already doing it . I don’t understand people saying the M4 is only good for light video work lol

[@RaquelFoster]

There's no way I'm getting a desktop M4 that isn't the Max. The M4 Max Studio will completely blow away the Minis in anything that uses the GPU or cares about memory bandwidth. I'm still using a 2018 6-core Intel Mac Mini with an external Vega 56 GPU with Resolve, but I'll be fine for a few months till the M4 Studios come out.

[@Featherlightstudio]

Yeah, I think the M4 Max Mac Studio is gonna be a monster for video editing and heavy audio productions.

[@AlValentyn]

My last Mac Pro was the 2013 tube, with 6 cores, 64 GB, and dual FirePro D700 gpus. Excited to see what the M4 Max studio is going to do. That what I’m hoping for.

[@justicedude97]

Do you think an M2 Max MacBook Pro would be enough for streaming 1080p60 to twitch? I currently have the M4 pro mini and the video capture is laggy as hell. I’m wondering if it’s a gpu issue or if I’m just SOL with Mac which doesn’t make sense since I KNOW people use Mac’s to live stream their PCs and consoles 🧐. I’m using an elgato 4K X as well...

[@MarkAlderson]

Great video! I have the M1 Max Mac Studio (base model with 32GB RAM and 24 core GPU and 1TB SSD) and I have been thinking about upgrading. Apple is offering $700 for a trade in, which isn't to bad. I have zero issues with it, and I would like to have the newest M4, but I might be unhappy with the GPU cores. It's a hard decision. Thanks!

[@melodology-5383]

Hey there 👋 Which machine is the quietest? I can't stand the fan sound in my recordings. Thanks a lot

[@Featherlightstudio]

Our Mac Studio is utterly silent, even at full load under heavy sessions. The M4 mini and M4 Pro mini have to do all that work in a much smaller chassis and that's going to create more heat. That's leads to the fans spinning up.

[@disklamer]

As a pro, get the Pro, as a studio, you get the Studio. As an engineer, get all the things. As a creative pro, probably get the biggest baddest thing that can help give you an edge.

Thanks for the video! Shoutout to my man Lance from Mac Sound Solutions for pointing me here. Awesome comparisons and glad to see it broken down like that. Looks like the older Max chips are still the video kings by quite a bit!

[@epicsynthwave]

Not all musicians make videos. In fact, I'd go as far to say that the vast majority of musicians just make music with their Mac Mini. So for that reason, the M4 (or M4 Pro) Mac Mini is an absolute no-brainer.

[@bluelinewhitetails6205]

would have love to seen this vs the m2 studio.

[@billschnake6378]

Great job on the video. I am currently using a M1 MacBook Pro with 16gb of memory. It technically does everything that I need to do, however I am going to update to the Mac Mini Pro with 32gb of memory w/14 core CPU, 20 core GPU and 16 core neural engine and a 1TB SSD. At 63 this will mostly be one of the last two computers I purchase for my home/semi-pro studio. I am currently running Cubase 13 Pro, Logic Pro XI and Wavelab 12 Pro for music production. I have several sample libraries on external drives and I am currently in a down swing for purchasing plug-in. If I am not going to use it why purchase it just to say I own it. This will also allow me to move from my 2012 MBP to my M1 MBP for my personal use. So I win at both ends of the spectrum, update the studio and my personal laptop in one move.

[@Featherlightstudio]

The portability of the MBP for personal use is hard to beat for sure.

[@NirHason]

The 14 cores version is the M4 Pro and it comes with 24/48/64 GB of RAM, so 32 is not an option :)

[@Guilla4Life]

I just upgraded from a late 2012 iMac (16GB) to the MacMini 24GB and I’m super geeked about it…lol

[@MrFn65]

Great video! It’s what I was looking for as a music professional. I use M1 MacMini with 16 gb ram currently. I don’t do a lot of video work so I’m running tons of virtual instruments , effects. I will wait to see what the M4 Mac Studio comes up with, like you said that’s a tougher decision as the M1 work amazingly well! In my case, I would have to upgrade to 32 or 64 Gb , 1 TB to make a move up and now you are in the 3 K budget M4 Pro. I would have also mentioned that it comes with Sequoia OS and many 3rd party apps aren’t running officially on that OS. In 6 months when apps/ drivers are up to Sequoia and m4 Studios are out, then I will take a serious look. Glad you mentioned using your current gear for improved cpu and that would be a useful video to see. How to use your older Macs in a audio production studio along with a ‘current ‘ Mac.

[@Featherlightstudio]

Great point about the newer OS not playing nice with apps yet!

[@ckatheman]

Which apps are you using? I know a lot of VST's state "not yet compatible" - but that just means they have not completed all testing and are not officially supporting it yet. I upgraded to Sequoia a week after it came out. I use Ableton and a host of VSTs from IK, NI, Arturia, Izotope, Kilohearts, etc... and I have not had one single issue thus far.

[@MrFn65]

@@ckatheman that is good to know. I use a ton of apps like Spitifire, NI, Arturia, Roland, Korg , UA, Spectrasonics and many more do not have native support for Sequioa yet. I use Steinberg audio interface which doesn’t support Sequioa with drivers which is the main reason I wouldn’t upgrade my Mac yet to M4. I had issues with Sonoma, Ventura like this in the past so I wait 6 months at least to see if there are updates to the latest OS.

[@counter511]

Hi, I am in a similar situation. I currently use an Intel iMac for music. I also use a MacBook Pro for everything else… my MacBook Pro just died… I am hesitating with spending a lot of money now for a MacBook Pro 16 inches with M4 Pro or M4 max… or go for a basic MacBook Pro with basic specs (M4/16go of Ram) and keep the rest of the money to trade my iMac with the next generation of Mac Studio.

[@ckatheman]

@@MrFn65 I’m sure there are some VSTs out there that do have issues, one example (a product I do not use) was Guitar Rig 5, part of the NI bundle, that used an antiquated authorization scheme NI never updated for Apple Silicon (and won’t). Otherwise, personally no issues at all.

[@yinoveryang4246]

Macs have incredible longevity. You wont need to upgrade for years after getting one (unless you're a tech nerd) my last one - 6 years. So continue to be proud of your M1 Pro. But the leap in the M4 performance is significant in a lot of areas. The M4's Electricity usage is apparently ridiculously low also - may seem like a small point, but in Europe is a serious economic consideration.

[@Featherlightstudio]

Great points!

[@TheGuyFromCali]

Thank you. I have the M1 Max Studio with 32GB. This video was my exact comparison of what I wanted. I just bought the Mini, M4 Pro chip with 14‑core CPU, 20‑core GPU with 64GB RAM and I updated the ethernet to 10G option. Apple even gave me a $720 trade-in for my Studio (I would have just given away to a friend anyways). I don't do any video or photo editing. Just web browsing, email, and running Plex server and uploading and downloading torrents. I think this should be a great upgrade and for $1300 after trade-in

[@chrisbogart687]

I have to agree with everything you said about upgrading. I am playing that game right now. I upgraded my M1 MacBook Pro to the M4 Mac mini Pro. I have keyboard, mouse, trackpad, and monitor in place along with a hub with SD card reader among other ports with fast external drives to lessen the storage needs. . I also have the M! Studio for my video work and I will wait until the M4 Mac Studio comes out. Apple did hit it out of the park with the M4 Pro chip this year. It helps to future proof you with all the AI apps coming down the pike. I see it in my video and photography work already. Everyone has to make their own decisions about their needs. I just went with the Apple trade-in and Apple Card option to pay in 12 increments. That definitely lessens the pain and hassles.

[@Featherlightstudio]

Great points and the Apple trade in definitely helps!

@@rrraahuulll I do heavy video editing using Davinci Resolve. I believe the M4 Mini can handle all the tasks.

Now, I have a M1 Mac Studio and would never buy the M2 studio right now. I am waiting for the M4 Studios to be released next year.

I just switched from a base M1 Max 32GB Studio to an M4 Pro Mac Mini 24GB. I don’t do much video editing, mainly Xcode and Android Studio and my Xcode builds that were taking 4-6 minutes on the M1 Max studio are taking about 1 minute in the M4 Pro Mac Mini. For what I use the Mac for, everything is faster, even though I went from 32GB RAM to 24GB Ram with a “lower spec” chip, I also saved myself thousands as I needed to upgrade now and not next year some time when the M4 Mac Studio comes out, and I almost spent thousands more on a M4 Max MacBook Pro. I am glad I went with the Mini. I feel like I still upgraded but saved $$ thousands in the process.

If you upgrade to Mini M4 , you can easily upgrade the external storage via thunderbolt 4, instead of paying Apple's high internal storage prices.

[@garsett]

My main reason to upgrade from my iMac Pro (2017): the AI revolution.

[@Redmonsterracing]

The real wild card in this comparison is the Neural Engine. Supposedly the M4 is a huge step up there, in theory 3x vs the M1 generation. A big frustration is trying to get a handle on what apps use what processors. I am seeing more apps using the ANE. Topaz and Lightroom come to mind, but even there it's pretty unpredictable. I bought an M4 Pro Mini in the base Pro config (12C, 24GB, 512) as well as an M4Pro MBP pro in a medium config (46GB, 14 C, 2TB) to replace my M1Pro MBP as that surely is a big bump. I don't like ordering CTO machines from Apple (rather just get the config I want from B&H), but they generally stock one high spec MPB. It's always been baffling that they do not spec any Mini's or Studios except the standard configs. No mini's over 24GB or 512GB. Maybe that will change now that the have an entry level Mac capable of Pro workflows.

The M4 Pro chip is impressive but the M2 Max in the Mac Studio is a video editing powerhouse offering many more GPU Core options than the M4 Pro. The M4 Pro can match and beat the M2 Max in single/Multicore but the M2 Max has a significantly higher GPU count and Geekbench score.

[@crouge]

Thanks for the great video! I just have one question that's on my mind: bandwidth. Does it actually matter in music production? Upgrading from the M1 Studio Max (Which I also use and is still great) to the M4 Mac Mini Pro is impressive in terms of CPU scores, no doubt. But with nearly half the bandwidth, will that impact performance? And how does the cooling system hold up when the machine is pushed hard?

[@Featherlightstudio]

My concerns as well, when you start pushing things, it’s going to get louder and probably hotter.

[@quantumonions]

Audio only here. Upgraded to a Mini M4 Pro with 64G from a Mini M1 with 16G. Using Cubase 14, Dante into an A&H SQ-7, with plugins from Spectrasonics, Toontrack, Arturia, Korg, IK, etc and, so far, everything is working without issue on Sequoia. Though, the M1 was (and still is) working just fine for my needs. With Dante, and some patching, I could use both (e.g. use the M1 to offload some instrument processing) but, for now, I'm sticking with the M4 Mini and will probably use the M1 as a file server.

Tb5 is apparently only for daisy chaining high res displays on the m4 Mac minis. It can’t be used for other things. Apparently it defaults to tb4 which is crazy fast anyway

[@tbirdparis]

This is incorrect. Thunderbolt 5 only offers its highest speed of 120 Gbits per second when being used in one direction, ie, to drive monitors. But for bidirectional channels (for data usage with external drives etc), it runs at 80 Gbits p/s, which is double that of TB4. This is not any kind of limitation imposed by Apple btw, it's just the spec of Thunderbolt 5 to the letter. The only instances where those ports will "default" to TB4 is when you connect a device to it which only supports TB4 at best, which is just the usual backwards compatibility the Thunderbolt format has always offered.

Currently I am Using a Sandisk Extreme Pro SSD (2TB & 4TB) to edit off whilst using FCP. 1) For my needs, which exact configuration of the new M4 Mac Mini should I get? (Pro or no, RAM, SSD) 2) Can I get maximum speed via Thunderbolt 4 or 5 using a Sandisk Extreme Pro SSD? 3) Is there any speed or performance advantage in going with a 1 TB SSD vs 512? I would really like to save $ by not going with the pricey Apple storage & sticking with the externals. Thank you!

[@Featherlightstudio]

You will most likely progress to 4k editing at some point and the M4 Pro is far better suited to that workload than the base M4. I would get as much ram and GPU cores as you can budget for, trustee, you will use them. As far as the Sandisk Extreme Pro, that SSD relies on a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface to achieve full speed performance. However, that interface is used by very few manufactures. Even on the Thunderbolt 4/5 Macs, you are still likely to only achieve base speeds. It may make more sense to look for a Thunderbolt drive than take advantage of the the M4 Mini port speed instead of looking for the much harder to find USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface.
