Hi,
Until a couple weeks ago I was running an older version of Pro Tools (can't recall which) on a 2013 Macbook Pro. That computer crashed and I'm looking to buy a new MacBook, which all have the silicon chips.
Doing some research, it seems there is some evidence Pro Tools runs better on the M1 chips than the newer M3 chips, particularly the M1 chips with more performance cores. (Here's a good video on it: )
In particular, the new M3 Macbooks (which I was thinking of getting as default, because they're the ones Apple is selling now) seem to have trouble, not to mention that Pro Tools is not yet compatible with Sonoma.
If anybody has experience running Pro Tools on the new Apple silicone chips, and has comparison info they can offer re: M1, M2, M3 (and pro/max/etc versions of these chips) I would be grateful.
