This is awful news, as it means the MacPro won’t have much differentiation from the Mac Studio. It isn’t like they can add additional memory slots as that isn’t how memore works with Apple Silicon. It could have more hard drive slots, maybe some sort of pci expansion, but that seems doubtful because of the way the graphics work. So more Thunderbolt ports, that seems likely, though still Thunderbolt 4.
With only a M2 Max, why make a macpro? Especially when the Studio gets upgraded to the same chip. Allot of Thunderbolt 4 ports would be great as Thunderbolt 4 hubs aren’t cheap. Still with Apple prices will some hard drive slots and extra ports will this even make sense financially.
This is certainly worrying. It could also mean a wait till M3 for the MacPro and just do an M2 Mac Studio till then.
It is free to use, but certain plugins require the Studio Version which costs $99.00.
DaVinci Resolve for iPad is optimized for the iPad Pro with M1 and M2 chips. Earlier and iPad models with memory limitations have limited functionality available.

Blackmagic Cloud Collaboration
DaVinci Resolve for iPad supports the revolutionary Blackmagic Cloud, a whole new way of collaborating using cloud based workflows. Simply create a Blackmagic Cloud ID to log into the DaVinci Resolve Project Server and set up a project library for your project. You can assign any number of collaborators to a project, using Blackmagic Cloud to share projects. Multiple people can work on the same timeline! When changes are made, you can see and accept them in the viewer, changes are only applied when you accept updates. A single click can relink files, update timelines, or view changes. Built in timeline compare tools let you merge changes into a master timeline so others can continue with edits.
Al Tools for Creativity
Davinci Resolve features cutting edge Al processing powered by the DaVinci Neural Engine. Tools such as magic mask need only a single stroke to locate and track people, features and objects in a shot. You can make characters stand out in an under lit shot, or invert the person mask and stylize the background. Smart reframe repurposes footage to dramatically different aspect ratios by recognizing the action in a scene and panning within it so you can quickly create square or vertical versions for posting to social media. Voice isolation lets you easily remove loud, undesirable sounds from interviews and dialogue recordings from noisy locations. Al tools create quick, accurate results saving you hours of time!
Compatibility
Recommended for use with Apple iPad Pro M1 or newer models. Earlier iPad models may be restricted to HD, and memory limitations may limit some features. DaVinci Resolve projects (dr) and project archives (dra) are fully compatible with DaVinci Resolve 18 on desktop. Supported file formats include H.264, H.265, Apple ProRes and Blackmagic RAW. Supports the Magic Keyboard, Apple Pencil as well as Studio and PRO XDR Displays.
I decided to try it on my Thunderbay using softraid, and AJA also reads slower, though not as much.
That’s 6.7% slower on the write speed and 13.2% slower on read.
I am betting AJA is more accurate, but would certainly like to know for sure. I sure hope AJA isn’t boosting speed on it’s products, but they are engineers so I doubt it.
I do wish their was a way to get into the dictionary and change things on iOS so you could stop some words from showing up, but apple doesn’t even let you control sync on bookmarks (why can’t I have an overwrite cloud setting, and if you can’t not mess up my bookmarks why would I want to sync my music collection?).
Dennis Sellers at the Rocket Yard at OWC’s Blog has the best way to fix this issue. I did it years ago, honestly having 2 menu bars and docks is just confusing to me, but I have been using a mac with 2 monitors for a whole lot of years.
Now I have been a regular user of Suitcase Fusion for years to manage fonts on my mac, and after 20 years I have accumulated a ton of fonts. And I honestly didn’t realize that PostScript fonts were losing support in Adobe as of January 2023. I have literally thousands of Postscript fonts and I used Connect Fonts (the current online version of what used to be Suitcase Fusion) to remove them from my font library. I kept a backup in case I run into someplace where I need one from an old project, but I don’t want them gumming up the works if they aren’t going to work in Adobe.
