Hi,
I'm specing for a home project Studio. I'm a Protools operator by day so I know it pretty well. I want to use Logic as my platform at home for reasons concerning cash for an HD suite (dont have the cash!). I have a few editing questions for you guys Im hoping you can answer before I buy Logic. *Can Logic record at half speed like PT (record ready; shift-spacebar) *Does an auxillary channel use up a voice? *What file formats can Logic inport? Digi requires you to by Digitranslator for OMF files and an MP3 plug to import MP3's at a lovely Digi price:) *Compare midi editing capa please *Are AU plugs as 'nice' as RTAS? *Are VST's usable in Logic? *Logic bundles a nice large plug package, are the plugs any good to a serious studio? *Ive demoed Logic at a mac store, it seems quite illogical at times. Does it take a while to get into it? Thats all I can think of just now. Inout would be awesome please Mike, Cape Town South Africa. |

Hey guys,
Thanks for such indepth response...Ive been away for a while I downloaded the reference manual (all 750 pages, and am still only on 432). What I forgot to inform you guys about me is that I'm a sound designer as well and plan to arrange designs around video/films etc. What I found in Logic manual is that it is predominantly music based. Sure it imports video (QT only) but there isn't much to say about syncing audio and the editing of audio is pretty 'dull' for lack of better word. I have emailed the Mac programmers and given them a wish list of updates for Soundtrack (rewire with logic and other editing fiddlys) but them I got a shock to read that Soundtrack is now discontinued?! Is this true?!!! It would be Ideal to rewire Logic with soundtrack as the master don't you think? The reason I want to move over to Logic is also the prospect of acquiring A Focusrite Saphire. It is ideal with onboard DSP routing to the unit of its own plugs. My home rig was a 002 for a year and I loathed designing films on it with the limited voices (32 only!) It sucked DSP like a bitch as well! I was lucky enough that my boss let me do some important work on his HD3 Procontrol rig for free sometimes. I am at a cross roads.. Help me out guys! Lucky I only have to whip the cash out in June as I'm on a feature from now til then and we are in a commercial tools studio for the post I have time to think.... Lucky I |
