@anildash yes, Mac Studio is absurdly overpowered for that task. I have an M1 Ultra Mac Studio, and it is still so fast that I feel dumb for buying it. I don't even like the SD card port. I need the mini ones a lot.

Maybe it will matter for VR or After Effects 3D graphics.

@sayrer I dunno, 9 simultaneous takes of full-res broadcast footage? With Dolby mix down soundtrack? It’s wild that they’re not even using a base-level Studio to do it.

@anildash the use case for the Studio is either VR/AR or 128 tracks of orchestra. Audio editing like making a techno track certainly doesn't need it (I use an Intel Mac mini for this). The video stuff will take more, but I bet an M4 mini would be fine.
