Greetings Trock,

lepetitmartien - as ever - is giving good advice here.

There is no easy answer to your question - it depends on what you want to do, how deep you want to go and the amount of money in your pocket.
I have used ProToolsLE in the past and I think it is a great product - it is very intuitive, has a good interface and I actually produced tracks with it - heh heh - er...
Case for - PTLE is affordable, easy to use, great with audio, good with MIDI (IMO), high quality output.
Case against - plug-ins are very expensive (some plug-ins cost as much as the Logic app. to buy), uses only Digidesign hardware.

Logic Platinum is what I use now. It has a steep learning curve but can give you everything you need. I still haven't got my head around 'The Environment' wink.gif
Case for - affordable (um...), very flexible, fantastic audio instruments, amazing MIDI capability, score sheet ability, uses nearly any hardware.
Case against - complex, needed a HCI person early on (IMO), but that's about it.

The only way you will ever know is to use both in anger and see what you produce with both apps. As a lot of the great people who visit this web site say - it's not about the tool, it's about what you produce with it.
And Logic is ready for the G5 (wuff!)
Good luck - we're all thinking of you...
