BEST video editor for Mac M1? (FCP Vs Premiere 2021 Vs Resolve)
Are you trying to decide which edit software to use with the Mac M1? Each company has released new versions which have been optimised to run on Apple’s Silicon chip natively, so who does it the best? And will the M1 be able to handle the tough footage you throw at it?? Take my hand and let me show you… ‘de way.’
In this video I compare all three Editing programme’s: Final Cut Pro 15.4, Davinci Resolve 17.3.1 and Premiere Pro 15.4 and pit them against each other testing multiple different types of footage to see which software can playback raw and compressed video smoothly and which software has the fastest render export times. I test Redcode Raw, C200 Raw Lite, Mp4, XF AVC and Pro Res footage in 4K timelines. Who is the king of kings when it comes to editing on the M1? And should you buy an M1 for editing? The results will surprise you! Are you ready for a nerdy DEEP dive on the subject? The waters fine, so jump on in!
