Your 2010 iMac can only run up to macOS 10.13 High Sierra.
Logic Pro requires a newer iMac that can run macOS 11 or later.

Is it possible to use my imac 2010 as the screen for mac mini? Or do i also need a new screen.
No the iMac can only be used as a display for certian older Mac models.

At this point, you will have to weigh the options
M1 iMac ⚖️ M1 Mac Mini w/external display

If your 2010 iMac is 27" there are reports that it will work as a display, despite what Apple says:
Use your iMac as a display with target display mode - Apple Support
You will need a USB-C to Mini DisplayPort cable from one of the new computer's Thunderbolt/USB-C ports.
You're welcome.
Yes you need to get and connect an external display to the new M1 Mac Mini.
to do that see > https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-mini/connect-a-display-apd8e4fbbb97/mac
Ok thanks.
i have bought an imac m1 from 2021.
Then i’ll just buy an external screen to it. Right?
