See Apple's Touchscreen MacBook Pro in Action

Apple enlisted British musician Labrinth to create a new song during an overnight livestream, demonstrating the new touchscreen MacBook Pro and Logic Pro at Apple Tower Theatre in downtown Los Angeles. The session, titled "Labrinth Live on Mac," is now available to watch as a replay lasting almost four hours. It started on November 4 at 8 p.m. Pacific, or 11 p.m. Eastern, with Labrinth tasked with creating a song from scratch. He can be seen reaching onto the ‌MacBook Pro‌'s display to manipulate Logic Pro's mixer controls, with a multitrack arrangement visible onscreen. Viewers were invited to submit questions as he worked, and the finished song is due for release on Apple Music next week. Apple initially teased the collaboration on TikTok with a white box bearing Labrinth's name and instructions to leave it unopened until November 4. Music production was among the uses Apple demonstrated when it unveiled the new MacBook Pro last week. Logic Pro includes an onscreen keyboard, chord pads, and drum pads that musicians can play by touch, including playing multiple notes at once. Labrinth is a singer, songwriter, and producer known for solo releases including "Jealous" and "Earthquake," as well as his music for HBO's "Euphoria." He also forms the group LSD with Sia and Diplo. The ‌MacBook Pro‌ with PROLED XDR Display features a tandem OLED touchscreen and M5 Pro or M5 Max chips in 14-inch and 16-inch sizes. The machines launch on Friday, November 6, with U.S. prices starting at $2,899 for the 14-inch model and $3,399 for the 16-inch model.Related Roundup: MacBook ProBuyer's Guide: MacBook Pro (Buy Now)Related Forum: MacBook ProThis article, "See Apple's Touchscreen MacBook Pro in Action" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
