I've been meaning to set this thread up for ages - The Official Logic Audio Users Thread. Since Apple bought out emagic at the end of 2003 (i think), no version of logic has been available on PC beyond version 5.5.

I would not like this thread to primarily become another MAC vs PC debate (as there are other threads for that). More so, users of the mighty sequencing platform Logic Audio can discuss there problems, trials and tribulations surrounding Logic. Hopefully even more so we'll see people's joy of use of this mammoth program.

I've used it for around 3 - 4 years now and just love so much about it. I know there are some other Logic users on RA such as Patch, Aural B, MC Stamina and Dirty Harry just to name a few...

could someone post a screenshot of a song theyve done in Logic? maybe with some VST's open and FX and stuff? id just like to see how it looks..

i think i saw a dom&roland screenshot from the native instruments website where he was using Logic & Kontakt. looked pretty nice..

(but yeah cubase is great, not that im going to talk about it here)

why not? im not trying to pick a fight. suni and i have moved solely into cubase now but i have always wondered about the pros n cons with logic...

there's a few odd things i dont like about cubase but the main problems we're having are more to do with the vst's that we are using...

I was using logic @ tafe. It's pretty awesome for more of a midi set up, I just thought that it takes to long to do stuff with audio. I get much quicker results with fruity and protools. whatever rows ya boat I guess.

logic's also great for audiovisual stuff.

I learnt logic to a reasonable degree after using reason for a while, purely so I could use VST's.. then with the whole mac takeover thing and a few bugs in the PC version if figured it was a waste of time continuing with a dead product.. granted if you have or are prepared to go Mac then its not a bad choice at all.. but i've been with PC's my whole life and I found Cubase SX2.2 to be much more stable, powerful and intuitive than logic 5.5 so i'm more than happy with that option.

I think with cubase tho you don't bother upgrading until the new version has been out for a year or so and has been patched up to a much better standard than the original release.. browse the support forums in the early months after a release and there's people blowing off steam all over the place about all kinds of problems.

Logic 7 retails for around $1499 and comes bundled with a good bunch of VSTs and instruments. These plug ins are ones that can only be used with logic.

Check it out
