![]() ![]() It’s always a great thing when the digital music creation process is improved and made more accessible. Apple has clearly made an effort to help musicians and producers focus more on creating while trying to make the user interface more transparent. The flexibility of the grid enables performers and producers to be spontaneous and capture virtually limitless ideas right into the Logic timeline. With Live Loops, Logic users can organize and playback loops, samples, and recordings using Logic’s new musical grid. Live Loops Apple Logic Loops and Logic Remote Apps on iPhone and iPad ![]() ![]() These new features are a great addition for anyone who uses the Logic platform, but creators of electronic music should be especially pleased. It includes a powerful looping engine called Live Loops, an impressive synthesizer and sampling system duo called Sampler and Quick Sampler, and a suite of beat creation tools that consist of a Step Sequencer, Drum Synth, and Drum Machine Designer. Apple has called 10.5 a “breakthrough release for musicians and producers,” and after we go through some of the newest features, you’ll see why.Īpple’s Logic Pro X 10.5 update consists of three pillars that enhance the music production workflow. However, with the recent release of Logic Pro X 10.5, Apple continues to offer an impressive and extensive set of features that makes it easier than ever to bring your musical ideas to life. Now I'd better shaddap and offer my apologies to VSL for veering so far off course from VSL topics.If you’ve read my earlier post about my favorite DAW software, you’ll know that my personal preference (especially for mixing) is Avid Pro Tools. I have a happy dream that one day Apple will lose, big time, to a huge class-action lawsuit that calls out their fraudulent use of the word "Pro" in Logic Pro. So today we're already in, erm, "interesting times" God only knows what lies ahead. I learnt to know the difference the long, hard way. These days however, it appears the proportion of adepts in that profession is alarmingly small. And I've had to deal with 'script kiddies'. Over the years I've known and worked with very many software professionals, many of them real adepts and a pleasure to work with. I wouldn't trust them to code a TV remote control device, let alone a DAW. Their software code, and their posts in so-called 'social' media, reflect and ultimately betray their sociopathically narcissistic mentality. These 'script kiddies' in particular nowadays just do not seem to care - or even know - that they're incapable of reading anyone else's feelings. (That was before Steinberg replaced huge chunks of Cubase's old code with pristine new code from Nuendo.) But nowadays Logic's behaviour is more like that of millennial 'script kiddies' - including some not as young but with similar gross lack of maturity, good sense, empathy, responsibility and intestinal fortitude.Ībnormality is the new normality. Logic was admirable in the old days (I have in mind LAP 3.5 F) for always making every effort to carry on manfully as best it could in the face of any sort of adversity unlike Cubase which in those days tended to fall over at the slightest problem, often taking the computer down with it. One big exception was the impossibility of opening a Logic Pro X project in Logic Pro 9 (in a MacOS capable of running Logic 9). Up until this new rule, opening a Logic project in an older Logic Pro version in some cases (as you mentioned) just flagged up a notification advising that the project was made in a later version but generally it was ok. (Oh and there's no need to pay any heed to the specious pest who mendaciously tries to smear and cry wolf at every opportunity he's already been busted for doing that here and elsewhere). Paolo, I have quite a collection of Logic versions swapping 'backwards' between them has sometimes been a matter of necessity for me and rarely presented any serious problems - other than simply not being able to fulfil a more recent function (but that didn't usually bother me too much since I work chiefly in the Environment, which has hardly changed at all during the last 20 years). ![]()
