Especially with Apple devices where such big feature advances (like the Touch Bar) are few and far between. These benchmarks highlight that as consumers (and developers) we shouldn’t only rely on big feature advances when considering an upgrade. This makes me wonder how much more powerful the newest MacBook Pros are.? The newer 2015 MacBook Pro is dramatically more powerful. Here’s how the two computers compare: Score Typeīoth CPU scores are pretty similar but the massive difference is in the OpenCL compute power which includes the CPU, graphical processing, hardware accelerators, etc. To determine which was more performant I decided to use Geekbench to take benchmarks and compare. We also strongly recommend completing all possible steps from the Serato optimization guide for macOS.From the specs I assumed my personal computer would have the better performance (but that would be odd given it’s age), although my work computer does seem to handle Docker better. Serato makes no guarantees this adapter will rectify the issue described above. Using a USB to Thunderbolt adapter to connect your Serato primary hardware has been reported to mitigate the issue, however this is a suggestion only, and this adapter is no longer an easy accessory to find. More information about various Macbook Pro models and revisions can be found here.

You can find your Model Identifier by going to your Apple menu and select About This Mac > System Report. Here are the Model Identifiers for affected Macbook Pro models: Symptoms will include a sudden extreme latency (1+ seconds) (or distortion) after approximately 5-10 minutes of use, requiring the device to be disconnected, then reconnected to temporarily resolve. We are aware there is an issue with some of the 2015 Apple Macbook Pro models and their USB port which may cause specific problems with USB audio devices.
