Notebooks are basically portable computronium with a screen, a keyboard, and a mouse. To be complete, this one just needs a keyboard and a mouse. (Apple is renowned for having some of the worst keyboards and touchpads in the world, and insists that it's a feature instead of a bug) (edit: it seems Apple finally admitted there was a problem, and switched its most recent notebooks to a more standard key mechanism... so, assuming the keys are finally usable, that just leaves the conspicuously bad clickpad)

@@quickie17 I've had no issue with most new plugins, even those that don't natively support M1. If they don't, most DAW's have a Rosetta version that does have a bit less performance (which honestly really isn't much. Their emulation is insanely good.) but your older plugins should pretty much work. I bought the "last" gen M1 Macbook Pro with the touch bar, and for me it doesn't nearly match the performance of my PC, but take in mind the current M1 Macbook Pro (2021) is around 4 times better than the old one and the Max version even more. It's definitely better than the majority laptops on the market, so if you don't often have access to your pc, its a good deal. Otherwise i'd still recommend to just get a custom built pc for the money instead (unless you're using a Mac specific DAW).

The only thing I am consern is that laptops microphone (mic response) was calculated together with surface it stands on..so maybe that lack of high frequency was caused by holding MBP in other position (on the side and vical holding in hands). You should test also in normal position, let's say with laptop stand on flat surface same as you place laptop for live show or events on the stage and then check that mic quality. I say that because I was also shocked with prolog of that video - sound stright from laptop mic was stuning, but with recording guit+voc not so much.... Sometimes we try to change the way engineers made something but we didn't know whats behind that technology, so let's stop changing things and try to cooperate with gear as it was created :) Cheers

Nahhh. The laptop mic is missing a ton of top end. It's a good mic, yeah, but I'd never use it in place of a decent studio mic. Good for a Zoom call, I suppose.

Jeff Gibbons has one of those keyboards. They are stunning

Haven’t heard about comments on the unnecessarily large trackpad for a long time on any tech reviews, and this is so true

When you were talking and about to lean in forward to the laptop mic at the beginning I legit thought you were talking through a proper mic and were gonna switch to to the laptop mic audio in the video

But it was the laptop the whole time!

Bruh - I wasn't paying attention to the video for a second, and completely missed the switch from laptop mics to actual track at 5:01. And I'm listening through my Audio Technica tracking headphones. Insane.

commenting a year later but realized that the microphones on my M2 Max 16" MacBook Pro actually record in 32 bit float in Audition! no clipping at all..insane.
