Apple Logic Express... Create your own music using an advanced spectrum of features and tools for computer based music production. Logic Express provides a step up from GarageBand for aspiring musicians, producers and composers without breaking the bank. With the same flexible layout as Logic Pro, you can dive deeper into the creation and manipulation of audio and MIDI.
THEODORE LEE Best DAW in the price range, and seriously spanks ProToolsLE, which is much more. Apple took what was already a great release (7.2) and made it better by refining the UI, adding in GuitarAmpPro, UltraBeat, and several other additions from Logic Pro. If you record music on your Mac, get Logic Express/Logic Studio. (Version 8.0.2)
FLOODGATE Update says "can't find an application to patch" but I have the Logic Express.app right there in my osx/applications folder.
Any explanation or tips?
Oh, and by the way Eric Wahlforss - I dunno what you're doing wrong but my Kontakt 2 works fine. Maybe you're just expecting it to behave differently, but I'm sure it works as *intended* under Logic Express.
Other comments? Bring back the "strip silence" function and the "Audio Configuration" editor so I can shuffle my plugins around (Version 7.1.1)
LOU KASH I have upgraded from LE6 last week. Great upgrade. Great integration with GarageBand. You can use GarageBand as your "sketch book", then load the GB projects into Logic 7 and work on the details.
Also a plus: no more dongle! Although you'll still need it to activate the upgrade the first time you launch LE7.
I still keep LE6 though because of its ability to *write* EXS instruments, although that functionality was possibly available by sort of a "mistake" (or even a "bug"). In LE7 the EXS Instrument Editor is definitely gone from the Audio menu. (Version 7.1.1)
ERIC WAHLFORSS just bought logic express 7.1 and quickly realized that i won't correctly trigger my native instruments kontakt 2 sampler. and still no way of using keyboard to move notes. apple loops?! phew.. please give me a break...
man, this sucks badly -- it's clearly the way things goes when we are dealing with a monopoly situation... (Version 7.1)
CHRIS ODEGARD Uhm! There is a trial of Logic Express freely avaliable from Apple: http://www.apple.com/logicexpress/trial/
Caveat emptor..
Besides that, Apple most definitely is not a monopoly, hence the existence of Cubase and Pro Tools and probably a slew of other fully capable softwares which I'm not aware of. You do, in fact, have other options, and this bad situation you've come underis your own fault. (Version 7.1.1)
