I want to do some serious recording of my own songs. I own Cubase studio4 with the EMU 1616 on windows. Is the quality equal to logic? And do I have to buy a preamp to get a thicker sound?
salut and thank you for this review! i got logic 9 because you showed me i can indeed install this on my G5, so a big thank you for this... i only have one question if you don't mind... which video card does your G5 have to run this 42" hdtv of you (did you have to upgrade to something more than a 128mb card like a lot of them had?)? thank you again dancetech!
@ouisouais - i use a standard mac g5 dual 2.0 with a radeon 9600, it runs the TV screen via the tv's rgb connection, 1920 x 1080 @ 59.9 hertz - no problems.
@dancetech Hi, Which OS X are you running on your machine? I have a PPC G5, dual-core 2.3 GHz, running OS X 10.4.11 at the moment, but when I attempt to install Logic 9 I just get the message 'This software requires and intel based mac' before I even get to click the 'continue' button on the install window. And it is a legitimate, genuine copy of Logic!
@dancetech Thanks for the reply, yeah it is a geniuine legal copy, bought a few weeks ago... confusing! I can only think that it's my old osx, or that they've started selling them with an update that won't allow it to run on power pc.
im a complete novice on logic mate, so is logic studio logic pro 9 aswell, or are they both seperate, if so which one do i go for? i want everythin, all sounds an everythin, for some propa beat makin. thanks
i just installed logic 9 on a g5 1.8 dual 4gb ram, works fine. NOTE...if you have aprevious installation of logic, you wiil need to delete its xskey.pkg file and install logic 9's manually.
Thank you Sir! I'm sure you know that this is welcome news to us G5 users out here. I'm glad I held off on getting the Studio 8 upgrade from 7.0 until now.
My questions are:
Do the additional apps like Waveburner, Soundtrack Pro and Main Stage function on PPC also?
Have a look at the new features and offerings and make your decision on that info. Don't buy something you don't need just so you can say you have the "latest".
Thanks for doing these vids. I've recently got a MacPro Quad-Core Intel and have been running Logic 8.
'Snow Leopard' is coming up soon, so I'm thinking to upgrade to Logic 9 then, so I'd be very grateful if you can upload the 'Demo Video' - Once again - Thanks a lot (and let me know when you have uploaded it? Cheers...
yes it runs stable but with bugs like all shitty apple s/w. for example i can reproduce a bug when using FLEX which deletes ALL your music from the Logic song arrangement, and it cant be recovered. Problem is the updates to finalcut have screwed my video capture system and now i cant edit my captures, that's why i havent posted any more videos since installing new FCS!! - ii'm trying to find a fix now.
hhhmmnnn..im still not sold, lol...who says the g5 in the video is actually hooked up to the monitor? are u sure there isnt an intel in the room? lol (Im praying im wrong though cuz I have a G5 too :)
I've got a copy of logic express 8 and i would like to know if I could use the 'logic pro 9 update', to update express 8 to pro 9?? or do you have to have studio 8? please could you tell me :) thanks
Yes you can Kris. I just did it yesterday. Make sure it's a legit copy of LE8. It may/may not prompt you for your LE8 serial number. Also, it will take a hellacious 4 hours to install, but well effin' worth it. I finished just b4 midnight, and was getting wide eyed at the presets it offers. You'll be in heaven....
YES, you CAN upgrade to Logic Studio 9 from Logic Express 8. It is $299 . I JUST bought it yesterday and have had NO problems. It runs VERY smooth on my Macbook (Older white one). Go get it and HAVE FUN!!
Encouraging indeed! I think the packaging said that the entire suite would not work on a G5 - I can't remember if that's why it said. However this video shows you can use Logic 9 on a G5 - YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
