Even on older hardware they spike quick to start with, but then you keep throwing more tracks and plugins at it and it just continues on with very little fuss. Honestly, i think the 14 would give you quite a big performance difference on large projects, but i can only base that on theory, and my own historic knowledge on slower multi-core machines vs 'faster' lesser core machines and Logic - and the multi's win out without doubt. Look at the attached pic for my opinion on the best configuration for a film/tv scoring configuration. We’d definitely recommend that (Vega 64) more for folks working heavily in video" Really the main reason to go with the Vega 64 is just to add a bit extra longevity, and to give yourself some flex to move into higher res over the next number of years as those become more common. Would the Vega 56 with 8GB be good enough? I think the Vega 64 might be a bit overkill for me"Īpple: "So with the Vega 56 it can easily handle two 5k displays or 4 4k displays. I will be using 2, maybe 3 external Monitors. Is this true? Would it be better for music production that I get the 10core?"Īpple: "Zach agrees that the two extra cores aren’t really going to give you a lot of extra value for audio production and recommends, the 10 core for you."

Me: "Im looking to buy the iMac Pro for music production with Logic Pro X But I heard that Logic only untilize up to 24 threads (12 cores)' You’ll benefit more from having fewer, faster cores like with the 10-core."

The difference of turbo boost only being 0.2GHz between the two, but with 14-core you get more threads for more channel strips in Logic but with 10 core you get faster processor speed? "Īpple: "Zach replies that you are right for software like Logic that won’t realistically take advantage of all the cores available in the 14 core model. Me: "I want to know the advantage of a 10-core with 3.0GHz that can turbo boost only up to 4.5GHz, versus the 14-core with only 2.5GHz but can turbo boost all the way up to 4.3GHz. I just spoke to a specialist at Apple and here is what he had to say for us Logic users! Smaller is faster and samples and work are all on other drives anyways)
I have found my best set up now and happy I don't have to crawl other the $10k mark:ġTB drive (2TB is not recommended. Thanks for all your info, guys! Much appreciated and helpful! My gut would be the 14 core though, i just don't think you can ignore the overall power, i still use an old 8 Core Mac Pro and it beats any of my newer 'quicker' single core speed machines when under load. If i was spending that kind of money i'd really want to demo one and speak to an 'expert' on the subject with first hand experience, because there's too many factors in what you'll see real world.
Really just depends how/if the software can utilise it of course. Yet there doesn't seem to be much between the single core speeds when both under load, so would be the better chip for big projects. However, purely from a hardware level - the 14 has a big overall processing power advantage - it's quite a significant difference when you look at the tech specs and benchmarks. 12 cores in this instance)? If that holds true you'd probably have to think the 10 core would be better value. Am i right in thinking that Logic can only utilise 24 threads (i.e.
