New Mac = worse performance?!

I had been using a very old iMac and Live 10. I always track with the buffer set to 64 to avoid audible latency. It worked fine.

Now I am using a brand new Mac Studio M1 Max with 64 GB memory. I get crackles all the time until I go to a much higher buffer, which introduces latency. I even upgraded to Live 11, but it is the same.

Why would a newer better computer have worse performance? Live and Mac OS are both up to date. Please help!

Try 128 samples for your buffer, that seems to be the sweet spot for the newer M1 Macs right now.
