Logic allows us to work with up to 1,000 stereo or surround audio tracks and up to 1,000 virtual instrument tracks, so we will have no limitations when creating our compositions.”

“This is Logic's weakest point: while the audio recording features are robust, users will find obstacles like auto-punch kicking in at random times, and audible dropouts while punching in takes. I have to assume longtime Logic users are just used to this.”

“Intergrated DOLBY ATMOS mixing for 200 bucks?? WHAT?? That's it. AVid Pro Tools Ultimate to mix in Dolby cost 2-3k. Insane!! Also FLEX time and pitch. That's it. No comparison with other DAW integrated features. If it ca't be done with Flex, then go to RX and back into Logic in 3 clicks. Hands down one of the best features.”

Leandro M.

CEO

“I may be biased since I'm coming from Ableton Live, but the Flex Pitch/Time tools are a godsend. Working on pitch correction with Logic's internal tools is so good I would say it's worth the full price just for this. You really have everything you need inside, no need for Autotune-like plugins.”
