Hi guys, do you think there's any difference between the cracked and the legit version?

Is the legit one more reliable or it's the same thing?

Sometimes my cracked copy crashes but I'm not sure because it's cracked or not.

Thanks!

 

For me is the same, Logic don`t crash alone, thethird party plugins crashes Logic.

 

it's the same.

 

It doesn't matter, they never update either of them

 

Welcome nyplugin,

Logic has no copy protection, therefore there's no cracked version existing. *no*

It's more likely that a (cracked) third party plugin causes Logic to crash.

 

I would second that, mate; your best course of action is to uninstall your non-legit plug-ins, and launch Logic by itself (no UAD card/satellite or audio interface either: complete standalone). Does it still crash?

If yes, reinstall (cleanly, if possible: from the App Store, but if not possible, get ahold of Logic 10.0.0, and install that, test to make sure there are no crashes, then update to 10.0.7).

If not, add the audio interface first (flash the firmware and update the drivers to the latest), then the UAD card/satellite if part of your system, then legit plug-ins, then 'trial' plug-ins, ONE BY ONE.

Once you've isolated the culprit, as quoted above, most likely a 3rd party crack, then uninstall it and stop using it (or reinstall a prior version thereof, but I would avoid it altogether, for obvious reasons).

I'm running 10.0.7 on two Macs, Fireface 800 on one, Apogee Duet on the other, UAD card/satellite on both, PSP, FabFilter, Focusrite and Lexicon plugins with zero crashes; hope you too can soon claim the same : )

 

awesome! thanks

There is ABSOLUTLY NO difference between a legit logic and the one you can find on the web.

Logic use a simple serial number to autorise so once you have this serial you have a legit like logic.

 

don't think they even use serial anymore on logic x.

plus it's so cheap now anyway.

i remember when it was like £600. but apple don't care about selling it cheap, because they know you've just spent 1k+ on a laptop or desktop.

so they have a high mark-up on that so they can afford to sell it so cheap, that and it's digital only now.

 

Exactly. Logic Audio promotes their App store and turns any Apple computer into an expensive but very capable dongle. I remember back in the day when Logic Audio still relied on an external dongle and a dongle emulator became available to circumvent the copy protection. There where whispers that the dongle emulator actually made Logic Audio more efficient because any software dongle queries were immediately returned without going through an external hardware device.

Shortly thereafter Logic Audio was bought by Apple who nixed the Windows version of the software and made Logic Audio register-able via a simple serial number. Nowadays the software is so cheap the questions arrises why you would want to use a non-legit version at all. When you buy it through the Apple store you also get over 20Gb of instruments. It's well worth the $200.

 

I just bought it on the App Store. DAW needs to be original at least, just for the sake of it

 

Logic crash alone for me ...

 

Some plug-ins do crash Logic. Usually you will see an error window with a clear message regarding what plug-in caused the crash. Best case, that plug-in will crash Logic from time to time. Worst case, every time - and you must remove it from your system.

 

Always wondered that question...but I never asked. Figured it was probably the exception of DAWS that didn't need an "uncracked" (legit) version just because of how smooth it still runs. I'm probably gonna buy Logic this month. With everything you get (Daw itself, Free Alchemy & all expansions, all the FREE update gifts, etc...), and how powerful of a DAW it is, it feels almost wrong not to. Perhaps that's Apple's intent as well by keeping it so cheap. I'd say with Logic ($200), they've earned their money.

 

As you can see Logic X itself crashes:

The developers @Emagic have always been amongst the best in the audio world, and many of them now work for Apple.
Please tell me, what's so bad about ES2? Its age?
Maybe Logic is just not the DAW of your choice?
