I've lately been deciding on which sequencer to get for my new Power Mac G5, and I've been considering to get either Logic Express 7 or Cubase SX 3.

I've been hearing a lot that Cubase doesn't run as nicely on Macs as it does on Windows, and that it's not quite as efficient as something like Logic. I am also looking at logic since that I now have a Mac and that gives me the ability to use software that Windows cannot.

Another part of me says that getting the Cubase upgrade from SL to either SL or SX 3 will allow me to stay with Cubase and possibly save a few dollars (with SL). Cubase is still a great program and I have become very comfortable with it.

And then of course I could try and use both but we'll see.

What do you think?

On my system:

Logic is better at playing VI's with low latency (low buffer settings).

At higher buffer settings I get the same amount of plug's in Logic Pro and SX. But SX can handle more audio tracks than Logic.

(DP is bad at both)

Audio recording and editing is way superior in SX3. I also prefer mixing in SX. (Workflow).
.

Having both is a "dream team" - SX was rewritten from the ground for OSX and WinXP and there was a lot of problems in the beginning. But today SX is a great app on the Mac.
