    Thanks man. That's some sound advice. I'm doing alright with Monterey, having just downloaded the latest security updates - and that's as far as it's going - until there's verified 100% compatibility with all my hardware and software.

    When ever there is a new update, I look for honest reviews such as these. I am still on Mojavi, because I find that many updates fit the retail end of things, but not the consumers' end. Apple keeps releasing updates, but they are only small additional features that do not serve a a fluid workflow.

    Didn’t update last time until I’d checked each piece of software I use regularly on the actual website of the company that makes it.
    Meant waiting about a month before finally updating but it was worth it.
    And I NEVER NEVER NEVER have automatic updates switched on .
    Apple will still provide security updates on the previous OS for a while, so there is no need to rush to the new one.

    It has been this way for decades and it will continue to be. For some reason that I have never been able to fathom, vendors in the music and video industries do not take advantage of Apple providing beta software for almost a year before release. Only after it is released do they seem to start taking it seriously. Don’t blame Apple for this. The vendors knew the software was coming.

    • @ThePeterBlood

      Video and audio pro's know not to upgrade to the next OS X just because it's available or upgrade at all if their current system functions well and certainly never upgrade in the middle of a job. In fact it's best to upgrade a second system first and work out all the kinks, making sure the software and peripherals you use is supported by the newer OS X. It's true vendors are traditionally late with those upgrades. Apple hasn't helped much making the auto-upgrade thing harder to deal with and shut off like it used to. I thought they understood that pro's have different needs from the run of the mill user? Guess not.

    The problem with not updating is that updating is also the only way you get security updates to your OS. I've held up for as much as 2 years and you can be new security breaches occurred in that time. I don't use Microsoft OS in my studio, but they have a better solution in this area because security updates are released separately from OS releases. I understand that small software developers don't have the resources to fully test their apps on new OS releases in a timely fashion. It's. a significant problem for those of us who collect apps, plugins, etc.

    So I take it that Monterey is safe to run now?
    I have an old cheese-grater Mac Pro, still a beast and running just fine on Catalina - except that it doesn't like my new Launchkey 88. Apparently this keyboard is designed to integrate seamlessly with Logic Pro 10.7 which Catalina doesn't run, so I'm tempted to make the jump to Monterey just to get the Launckkey 88 to stop acting wonky.
    Should I do this, or maybe only go to Big Sur - or just leave it be?...

    I remember a few years ago I updated my Mac from 32-bit to 64-bit. Boom! Half of my old software stopped working. I've paid a bunch of money over the years. They were nuked. What's worse is that a lot of software now ask for yearly or monthly subscriptions. I regret that step ever. I should have bought a new Mac and keep my old Mac instead.

      @@enriqueizta7841 I didn't ever try Pro Tools on the Mac I only used Waveform, but I sold the MacBook and got myself a second hand Surface Pro 5 so I could travel with less equipment to Atlanta.
      My main business needs Windows for engine tuning software, but this little Surface Pro with 8GB RAM and no fan runs 100% identically to the MacBook Pro with half the cores..
      I see around 12-15% CPU during music creation and it always drops to 1-2% after mixing and bouncing to audio.
      The MacBook was beautiful, I owned it for just over a year - but when compared to this little badboy I am in love with the cheaper device, that would probably run Pro Tools.
      From what I saw.. everything that worked in Big Sur and Monterey worked perfectly fine in Ventura. I can't see why anything would change in an M1/M2 update because they're all working now.

    So tired of Apple ignoring musicians and the decades compatibility issues with Mac OSX and audio and music apps. Musicians pro and amatuer are a big market buying Apple computers and Apple ignores us. Looking at Apple you'd think only video creators use Apple computers. Apple makes tons of money can easily afford to have few engineers to work with the big audio and music app companies to work out incompatibilities or at least give those companies a engineer level support number that can call with questions, This is how Microsoft and other companies work with the big companies making software for their OS. I only updated to Monterey a month ago and only did that because I was planning to buy a M1 Mac and wanted make sure the music software I use will be stable on Monterey. Now have Monterey on both my Intel and M1 Macs who knows if or when I might move to Ventura or the OSX that come after that.

    I did the mistake of upgrading to Ventura and I am now to the point where if I cannot downgrade successfully I will switch from my M1 to an HP Z mobile workstation and potentially learn new programs. I've been using my M1 for 3 years now. Prior to that, I had been using macs since the first iBook. I never had remotely close to the amount of issues I had on any computer since switching to Ventura.
    To put things into perspective, I have used multiple cleaners, command lines, reset the SMC, cleared all the caches you can imagine, so on and so forth again and again.
    My screen flickers black - an issue reported on tons of different screens by people on Superuser forum -, my sound entirely cut off at random even if the right assignation of in and outs, my keyboard doesn't connect properly sometimes, I had apps that refused to go fullscreen, stage manager was forced in the background (meaning I couldn't align two windows side by side unless dragging one to the screen again; WHY???!!!), and the list goes on to the point where I am even considering to switch computer entirely. Bottom line is, yes most people will NOT report those issues with the M1, but that's just because they don't use it as a desktop replacement!!! I could NEVER advise anyone right now to use any M machine other than the minis for desktop replacement.
    Hopefully, downgrading will fix most of the issues, but overheating dongle (and I buy top notch stuff thank you) and other electrical problems WILL arise and potentially causes or reinforce those issues so do NOT make the same mistake I did and use the M1 as a desktop replacement for a 3 years period. Fingers crossed that downgrading will work for me!

    • @WorldvsTruth
      @WorldvsTruth Před rokem

      Well, I am among those using an M1 Pro 16" as desktop replacement since July of last year. Fortunately I have not seen the same issue(s) you mentioned. However, I have seen the beachball nonsense while doing relatively light tasks e.g. browsing with a few windows opened, playing an instructional video while using an amp simulator with my guitar plugged into MOTU M2, running LogicPro (not even recording). My battery dropped to 91% within the year, although "rarely used on battery" with "optimized charging" - I suspect that is the culprit. I have had to do a hard shut down twice, as the beachball spun and the machine froze. All this may seem like no big deal, but a 32gb ram $5000 machine ought not to have ANY such issue. Taken in to an Apple store twice, revealed only that there are no Geniuses working there - most of them smug college students who speak very confidently on matters they know nothing about. By the way, all this happened with latest updates to Monterey. I cannot go back to Windows (I was there for about 15 years), after having made the leap to Apple 10 years ago.

    Thanks for the advice in this video John. I personally have kept on Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6 even in the mid year point of 2023. As a professional music producer my main concern for work is that my system works without any flaws, as professionals we get used to a certain workflow and often times when updates like this come out they interrupt this workflow and you have to end up waiting for the software/plugin companies to catch up, mean while that project you almost completed now doesn't load up entirely as some of the plugins don't work and now you have to wait. In your honest opinion either John or reader what would you say is the most all round stable Mac OS to update to if you are like myself on version 10.14.6 Mojave?

    I use Spitfire Audio plugins -BBCSO- and after checking the plugin was compatible with M1, I decided to switch from an i5 because I needed more cpu power for my end-of-year school project. Big mistake ! I couldn't figure myself that BBCSO still wouldn't be compatible with Ventura 8 months after it was released. Just a few lines I found on the problem after my purchase eventually proved me that this was the case indeed. And of course the vendor had installed Ventura before selling, so... If you are in a hurry, maybe don't upgrade : it could be more problematic !
    I'm now using Noteperformer, which is great 'cause it saved my life, and still looking forward to use my BBCSO...

      Just thought we’d jump in to give some context to the situation here. About a year ago we had confirmation from the third-party driver developer Ploytec, that it is not possible to run the DB4 with Mac latest software and hardware releases. We, therefore, announced that active support for this product now ceases at Catalina with driver 3.49. FYI, this driver will not run on Big Sur or Monterey.
      We would like to add having read some of the comments that it’s more to do with the hardware in DB4 than software, being that the chipset has become outdated and cannot run with Apple’s latest hardware and software platforms. We attempted to find a software solution with our partner for several months to no avail.
      It was with sadness that we discontinued DB4 after a great 10 years in production. Which, for a digital product is pretty decent! However, we do regret to inform customers that we are no longer looking into solutions for support on DB4 and are deeply sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause to any DB users.
      Kind regards,

It's a good thing I have some other good mastering and channel plugins still working (like the PSPs'), so it doesn't hurt that much. (But it still hurts. No L2, no LinMB, no Maserati for acoustic guitars etc) .. I used to be uber conservative about updates and everything you say in your video is exactly right. I thought I'd give it a try because I was on Big Sur for two years now, having a relatively new machine. But now I'm totally going back to being "if it ain't broke don't fix it". Other than that, Ventura is working fine but no new "feel" no new look in windows, menus etc. The only thing I noticed is different is that System Preferences are System Settings now and the look is exactly like Settings in cell phones.

    This is one of the reasons why I prefer WIndows over MacOS. I don't know why Apple doesn't make all software (that is atleast one or two years old) be compatable with the latest OS version.
    When I updated to Windows 11 (from the release of the Beta version before final release), all of my software and hardware immediately worked and I didn't have any problem with anything. And Windows 11 was a major update from Windows 10.

      The old thing about chosing Mac over Windows cause of the stability is really long gone. How much I like how efficient the new Mac silicon is, Apple is masters of breaking stuff when they introduce new hardware or OS versions. There still is lots of VST’s that still aint run in native mode and dependent on your daw choice that can be a major hazzle for those daws that can’t sandbox plugins that doesn’t support native mode. For a niche like music production always been one of the major support of Mac hardware, Apple do a really shitty support to make it easier for 3’rd part daws and plugins to adapt to new os versions. And Video editors dont have it easier, I know Nvidia isn’t popular as a Company, but I never understood why Apple wouldn’t work with the only brand that had proper hardware acc. Support for Intel Mac’s.

    I would recommend dual booting and testing everything because not updating could be a security vulnerability. Hackers like targeting older OS's that could have vulnerabilities. Also, Ventura did not break support for any newer API's so you are likely fine updating.
