- It's fast, it's small, and VERY efficient at what it does. A personal computer so powerful you'll see pros relying on it.

#MacStudio #M2Ultra
I've watched literally every single Apple keynote since the very 1st iPhone... they NEED to have this dude present at the next event 😂
Has anyone besides us told you that you're a great speaker and presenter. I liked this whole video, not just parts of it.
First - the quality of this video is superb. Excellent work! Thanks for the realistic look at the m2 ultra. The m1 Ultra has been a huge workhorse for me over the last year. Looking forward to an m3 next year.
Forget the M3… The M4 is on the way!
Love my M1 Ultra + 128GB + 2TB machine. These things are monsters! Thank you for an informational review as always!
Do you regret not having the newest a and best?
@@MyFriendlyPup I bought my M1 Ultra when it was first released on 03/22/22. Delivered on 05/23/22. So it was new then! I have zero regrets. It works amazing and blazing fast. If you wait for the newest tech, you will never buy tech :) I was using my 2012 Mac Pro (Classic) (new to me in 2012) with dual Xeon CPU for over 10 years.
I just ordered a max'ed out M2 Ultra and should be arriving in a couple days! The journal entires, documents, and notes I wrote out over-thinking and justifying the purchase was comical, but I feel so seen by the points you made here. Lofty as a machine as it is, it's practical uses for my workflow, and the scale of clients I have rejected in the past due to cpu limitations that I can now onboard really justify going with this machine. And knowing how the M2 Ultra is capable of local machine learning makes me really want to learn about training AI models locally. :) I have quietly suffered for too long trying to render 3d graphics, edit multiple 8K streams, on my 2019 intel MacBook pro. Never enough space for more than one project. The project I am working on now I have to edit in chunks because the footage is more than my onboard hard drive space. I am over the moon knowing this is the last project I have to edit on this machine. Thank you for this superbly filmed video.
Congrats on your new powerhouse of a workstation! Sure it’s somewhat costly, but at least life’s gon be easier now 🙂
what's local machine learning ? can the m1 ultra do the same?
How much did it cost?
?

Great, great, great review. Nothing that we already dint knew but you explored the video editing aspect of it even more which was great to watch.
You should think about an OWC 4M2 enclosure with 4 of the Samsung 990 Pro 4 Tb SSD. I set up 2 of these 16 Tb combinations and I love them! You can use Apple Raid Software to keep the cost down and set up a Raid 0. The software is a joy too and it is free. I get 2800 r/w. and it is pretty hard to run out of storage!
It's a good machine for what it is but it lacks GPU power which is an issue for a lot of use cases.
this is a great review, I have Mac Studio M1 ultra - it is a dream to have M2 Ultra
So I use Adobe CC suite on a daily basis, and I'm thinking about learning 3D software like Fusion 360 or Blender. Will the M2 Max work just fine or should I spend the extra money and go with the M2 Ultra?
thanks for normal mac knowledge………. and your so much taking
I have the same one just not as much storage space since I use a video storage server. It is great at normal editing however for stuff that requires good gpu performance I have found it to be lacking. It seems to struggle compared to a 4090 build I would guess even a 4080. Stuff like NR, Delta keying, heavy effects, 3d renders. At least with 6k and 4k pro res footage to the point that I cant play back live. Granted that is in resolve and after effects I have not tried those effects in Final Cut.
Does it come with a screen or you have to pay for a screen as addition?
your videos is so perfect and I hate it
Please test the fps on minecraft as it is a very cpu heavy game
the use of music and your execution is top notch...!!! Thumbs up and you found yourself a new Sub!!! Gracias
Love your style brother! The Music choices are particularly great :)
Outstanding review AND extra points for the cat at the end!
Wait 3 months and they will release something better.
It’s 3 months later there is nothing that has been released.
@@series25a- u know what he meant.
There are people working that can buy things and actually take advantage of device upgrades…
Electronics have been like this for 35 years.
That aged well…
Good for cat? i'll buy 2!
I'm glad you did the Topaz Video Test AI test !! I love Mac OS and I wish it was faster to upscale videos. :(
can you use 3rd party monitor and keyboard&mouse on this device?
Yes, I am
hey.. quick question, that clip of MAXON cinebench rendering the room for 30 minutes, was that sped up??
I think my cat needs his own Mac Studio
He absolutely does
super review!
Nice. I'd go for 76Core/2TB/128GB RAM myself and pair this with one or two Acasis thunderbolt enclosure and 8TB Corsair MP600 PRO
Ref M2 Ultra would a Wacom Cintiq Pro 24 best connected by HDMI or Thunderbolt?
B-j
Just got myself a Studio (m2 base model), and I'm so happy with the performance (and my 4 monitors working properly). Sold my M1 Pro Macbook to help pay for it. I still need to occasionally code or do work on the go so I purchased a baseline 15" M2 Air (used). I really feel the base models are where you get maximum value with Apple and this dual computer "hack" has proved the best Apple decision I've made in years. I get 15" screen which I prefer over the 14" pro anyway! not to mention completely removed any complicated desktop setups with docks and extra ports etc. Loving just being able to grab the laptop and go on a whim. To get even that base model Studio level of power (and RAM) inside a Macbook would have cost about the same as my two computers (possibly even MORE). Shit yeah. The Studio is so good.
Great review. My M1 Max laptop is pushed to its limits with my work. Would like to see how the new one handls a7s3 footage with some .mxf footage.
What a terrifically useful, well presented review. Thanks.
I bet the Studio M3 will support 256 GB
I found this machine at goodwill for 90 bucks and I gotta say it's the purchase of all time
How does this maxed out Mac Studio handle Lightroom Classic and Photoshop?
What scenario you would bring your Mac Studio to Genting skyworlds theme park at night...just why (asking from a Genting employee)
Meanwhile I am still trying to save up for a refurbished M1 studio max...
Try playing Diablo III at 4K 144Hz for the fans :D
Good video.
Awesome review. I wonder which upgrade options are worth spending on, if one couldn’t max up the highest avail range for Mac Studio M2 Ultra due to budget constraints for intensive video editing work. Thank you
it's almost twice faster...how many times more expensive?
when do u export to h.265 if its already filmed in h.265 (5:20 of this video )
Wow , really on point video with some concrete example of ram use ! Suscribed directly.
does all prores get transcoded in Final Cut x ? I use Canon C70 and it does not use prores internally but I plan to use iPhone prores 15 pro max
how long do you expect to keep it before upgrading? haha
Is it any good for Stable Diffusion?
Phenomenal quality of video and presentation.
what's temporal nr ? what's it used for ?
Thanks, Zy, for the fantastic and instructional video!
Dude you are so smart...im jealous.
Now we will get m4 chips in the fall.
Please skip the pizzacatto
I just wanted to say your edits are nicely done. The swap from metal for the number of videos being played at once to the calm lounge bar style music was a nice touch.
Amazing review😁👌🏼
I have been using a i9 9900k and planning to upgrade real soon. Currently skeptical about whether i should buy a mac or build a pc. My main workflow is mostly adobe premiere pro and after effects and i work a lot with dynamic link and motion graphics. The m2 ultra build is costing me $6000 which is a lot. Will this machine last in terms of performance for the next 5 years if i buy it? What do you guys think? Or im better off building a pc?
Apple is currently selling M2 Ultra refurbs for like $3399
i love ur review
edit : i love u
If Apple is "supposedly" to go green, zero foot print on the planet, why would they not make these SSD and Ram upgradeable? Does not make sense at all.
Wait, you think apple really cares about the environment? 😂
They just show those numbers to comply with the law, they're in it for the money, nobody in the corporate space cares about the environment. How can you be so naive!
An Upload!
what made the 4k composition 1500 frames long at 6:10 in this video ? I'm trying to understand what kind of after effects work would need lots of ram? especially over 120gb of ram
?
love the sneaky music
Yep.
I don't understand when they say u get more frame rates on a m2 ultra ? I thought frame rates where in camera like 24fps, 60fps,120fps , what does frame rates mean in post ?
When playing back high data clips when editing, it can slow down machines and cause frames to drop when playing it back. This isn't a big issue on the studio
@@mattykobs I understand now thanks
I bought this M2 Ultra Studio with 128G RAM and it was great when I was editing 4K HS with 5 sony a7S3 footages. This year I started recording one of the 5 sony a7S3 with S-I at 600 Mbps and added a Sony a1 8K. The M2 Ultra Studio is now stuttering meaning it's obsolete already.
Or the camera codec stinks. Braw plays like butter
Sony 8k stutters with Sony a1 on your Mac Studio ? What are the specs of your m2 Mac Studio ultra ?
@@creativegreatsvisuals 30cores, 64 GPU, 128GB ram, 8TB SSD with 60TB SSD scratch disk. Usually when I load a multi-cam edit using Four 4K cameras with S-I codecs and 2 8K cameras with 520 Mb/s HS codecs.
@@pomanprod 30 cores is not maxed out
@@pomanprod what’s difference in s-I codecs and hs codecs ?
What about architects, designers, engineers, photographers, 3d artists and programmers?
Its sad that 10+ streams of 8K is playing back fine, but just one layer of 4K video es stuttering along if Neat Noise reduction and Flicker free - flicker removal is added :P
8K is not a real time use case, but noise reduction and flicker removal when filming events or its alike is wery much so.
Neat Video is not meant to be a real-time playback. Either you cache those nodes or wait till output to turn them on.
@@johnnycashlesscomedy8616 obviously… but instead og everybody showing 8K and all that stuff its better to show how good it handles the stuff you need to actually run a video production buissness :)
I have both mac and PC top of the Line setups.. filming om C70, R5c and the R3 (and sometimes renting REDs but only once in a while..)
For me and mainly everybody the 8K is not the reason why you shoot these cameras.. and its not the reason why you buy the high end computers either.. :)
what's catch those nodes mean? what's wait till output to turn them on mean? sorry I'm learning still@@johnnycashlesscomedy8616
@@johnnycashlesscomedy8616what’s neat video ?
Does noise reduction and flicker free use a lot of ram ?
I've run out of 8tb of space 3-4 times this year lol
what's spacial noise reduction ?
Is that a gucci boy wiff a mac ultra 🎉
Why do you need 192 gb unified memory 💀🥴🤣 ?!
