It certainly would be a first for Apple if it did build specific models catered to different types of professionals. For example, a video producer might need a monster graphics card, whereas a music producer wouldn't. What do professionals really need to get their job done? Because of the different needs of every professional, one interesting possibility is that Apple might have even more distinctly differentiated SKUs configurable for these folks. Whatever happens, it's now clear as day Apple is doubling down on professionals. This could be an interim solution before Apple reportedly switches away from Intel processors to its own custom chips. There's talk that Apple could add more co-processor(s) to its Macs (unclear which ones) that could improve app and system performance. On the MacBook Pros with Touch Bar, there's a T1 co-processor chip that controls the touch strip.

Pushing the Mac Pro into 2019 also has another potential benefit: It could mean Apple might integrate more of its own silicon.Ĭurrently, the iMac Pro uses a T2 co-processor chip to control hardware like the microphones, FaceTime HD camera, and for securely booting up macOS.

In that case we found something in the graphics driver was not right, and once you know where to look and you fix it, it completely changes the kind of live-on-ability for that system - the productivity for that user completely changed." The windows are not super graphically intensive in terms of processing and stewing but we have found an issue where that window was taking like 6 to 10 seconds to open and they’re doing that 100 times a day, right? Like ‘I can’t work on a machine like this, it’s too slow,’ so we dig in and we figure out what it was. You know we have examples where we find something… like it’s a window that a 3D animator uses frequently to make some fine tweaks. These aren’t things that you’d find in a benchmark or an automated test flow. "These aren’t necessarily always fundamental performance issues. Ternus on the kind of problems they're trying to solve for with the new Mac Pro:

Which makes sense because Apple's always touted its advantage of owning the entire stack.įor the new Mac Pros, Apple is not only tuning its own apps, like Final Cut Pro X and Logic, to run at at peak levels, but working with many creatives to learn how to improve for the third-party apps they use.Īpple's so focused on this optimizing that it's even hired many creative professionals to give them invaluable insight on the types of issues they run into.

Making the software work seamlessly with the hardware seems to be Apple's top priority. It's not purely about getting more performance with a faster processor, or beefier graphics card, or more RAM. Fine-tuning hardware for software is keyįrom video producers, to 3D animators, to music producers, to artists, Apple says it's looking into the bottlenecks that frustrate professionals. Specifically, Apple says it has assembled a "Pro Workflow Team" to better understand the needs of professionals across a broad range of fields. Though Apple was predictably vague about any details - we know the new Mac Pro's not coming out until next year, and Schiller said they're "going to work on a display for a modular system" - we did get details that suggest they're designing a system that's truly optimized to address the pain points of creative professionals instead of simply jamming a bunch of powerful PC parts together and calling it a day. In an exclusive report, TechCrunch's Matthew Panzarino sat down with John Ternus, Apple's vice president of hardware engineering, and several other executives to discuss the future of the Mac Pro. Apple might ditch Intel chips in Macs for its own, starting in 2020
