In light of the recent release of Logic 10.8, just wanted to share the vision I had for this update over a year ago. Perhaps I wanted too much or was just being delusional. The interesting thing is that some features over time have been added (clip gain, pitch correction redesign). Inspired by Ableton Live, Studio One and others.

For me personally, maybe it's time to move on from Logic as it is obvious that it's going subscription-only with the next major version. Although it will be hard, because I practically grew up with it (18 now) thanks to my brother.

I hope you guys enjoy it!





















Edit: don't know why pictures are all different sizes.

I have more plugin designs on my portfolio. Here are all my socials in case you guys want to see more designs in the future.

 

where did you take from that its going subscription?

 

Just an observation.

It feels to me that Apple's recently adopted business strategy of creating subscriptions for every niche possible (music, tv, fitness, games, cloud storage, private relay, news) will inevitably result in something like a "Pro Apps Bundle" monthly subscription. So I'd argue that with 11 they're going to go subscription-only.

I hope it's not going to happen, but as of now judging by the fact that the iPad app is sub-only, I don't think they have a single reason not to make 11 sub-only too.

 

Subscriptions soon just to live...

 

im out if they are gonna go subscriptions
has anyone with juicy plugins tried the new Logic Pro on samoan m1 Macs? can you share any experiences cause apple changed the way it loads plugins

 

It's a $200 program, as it stands. We have to buy their computers to run it. Some of us buy Mac laptops to run it with, portably.

There is 0 chance of this.

 

Of course, 10.x is going to stay the way it is.
Version 11 though I'm not so sure about.

 

I don't mean 10. I mean anything from Apple, actually. If you cannot afford what they are selling; you are more than welcome to go buy something else. They do not give a rats ass. Why would an entry-level wearable VR cost $4000? If people were paying a subscription fee; they would expect frequent updates. That's not going to happen either. Look at the "protection" they use for it. It's close to none. They know, in the greater scheme of things that they are selling computers (and iPhones). That is their business model. If someone gets jacked around or feels like that, about a $200 program; that someone can skip out of buying a new $3000 Macbook Pro.

 

I don't think Apple is trying to compete with Lenovo, etc., and I don't know if they need to. It's simply there to buy if you want it and a number of people do buy it.

Just my $.02

 

actually their business model is the App Store monopoly, the hardware is all owned by the stock exchange now, Apple has to deliver promises to them not their users

By the way, have you tried logic 10.8 on somona and m1 Mac?
