Hey!
I've got my own company working with audio production, video production, 3D and rendering stuff, the works. I need a workhorse, as fast as can be and stable. I want to run Catalina initially, with the possibility to upgrade to Big Sur once all the software and plugins run reliably on it. However! I also want to be able to run Windows for some rendering applications.
Apps I'm using every day: Ableton Live (audio), Adobe (Photoshop, InDesign, Premiere), Rhino 7, Substance suite (3D texturing).
I've selected the following parts from the CustoMac Pro buying guide:
Is this as good as it can get? I could spend another 1-2 K USD on further improvements. So, basically, I've got a budget of ≈$4000, I want to build the Rolls-Royce CustoMac for "creative" applications. Note: I've got a friend who's a great programmer who's gonna help with the build and installation so you don't have to be too terrified of my lack of skill.
I'm very grateful for any pointers and feedback
