Ah, okay.

^ That assumes the beta compatibility list is the same as the release one will be.
I'm not going to put the next macOS on my 5,1 anyway, because it doesn't support 32-bit programs. Too expensive to update them all, and not worth it.
But with iPhones it's different, because most server-based apps (my bank, DirecTV, etc.) require constant updates to work, and they often break when you don't have the latest iOS. You can't just freeze the system, or create different startup partitions with older OS versions.
Eventually though, it will come down to whether I want the latest LogicPro update or not
Yeah what’s with that??? That missing feature alone is what made me start using cubase.1000 instrument tracks. Still only one CC lane visible at a time
I've also noticed that LPX has issues with dense midi through a channel. You won't necessarily see the CPU meters max out, but you'll get dropped events. Would a faster CPU help? Not sure since I don't have one to compare. Logic may have architectural issues in that area frankly.
Where do you get your information about 127 events per buffer? I hrard similar rumors. I also hear a rumor it was increased to a much larger value. But anyway midi can be subject to dropouts just like audio if the cpu can’t keep up

i lost my Soul Calibur game on one of the iOs updates... im still very resentfull about it
Mmm, I do not want to criticize Apple, because they produce beautiful machines reliable and friendly, and that last a long time.
But I think that if Steve Jobs was still in this world, he might not accept the path that Apple has taken for some time.
Apple has always priced quite high (even if they give a lot of satisfaction too), but here I think the designers were pleased, because this new MacPro is surely a great machine, but who can buy it, because with the essential options, it will far exceed $ 15,000 and more, so apart from the big structures or the few artists who manage to live comfortably their music .... and they are not so many, but I may be wrong ?.
They have already set the bar very high with the IMac Pro, which with a minimum of options (Indispensables) go up to more than 6000/7000 $, but there ...
I think that old models still have a bright future ahead of them, and my faithful IMac too, unless he lets me go!.
The worst thing is that I will not be able to do without osx and Logic x, I already thought about going back into the world of pc, but no, now it's too late, I became addict, Apple me holds chained !.
PS: Maybe an Imac Pro, but I will not be able to buy more, unless I find oil digging in my

If what you are doing is sit in front of a computer and making money with it all this discussion is futile. Get the best you can possibly afford and let it work FOR you. Some people may think their car is more important but consider where you spend most of your time!
That's right. Many people finance a $40K new car that depreciates like crazy. If I spend (of finance) a $7K MacPro that earns me, say, $10K in the first year of owning it....it already paid for itself and owes me nothing.
This was my exact attitude when the last Mac Pro came out. "Eff them, they're screwing me on price". So I ended up spending an equivalent amount of money on a PC and ended up hating it and selling it, and buying a Mac Pro anyway. This time I'm going to just suck it up, pay the extra $1000 above what I was hoping to spend, and thoroughly, thoroughly enjoy my computer for years and years and years.Like the video post by JEPA above, I will absolutely not be buying one of the new macpros as currently priced. The words "don't be a schmuck", come to mind. Apple is out of their mind. We shall see how many working pros fork over the money. Some of you seem to be able to justify the price, but I most definitely cannot, and just like stated in that video, if it comes down to it I will switch to PC...(or perhaps Hackintosh for a while).
It is true that a lot of us lose more per year on our car's depreciation then the cost of that new MacPro, but still its just too out of line with the rest of the market. I do think there are many pros that will justify this expenditure. I think there are many others that will switch to PC to continue to make due with minis and iMacs.
As always, Apple is doing something a bit controversial and we shall see how it shakes out.
