So Apple is basically copying features Ableton Live has had for years here, then dumping this product on the market at an unsustainably cheap price that none of their competitors can match and stay in business.
If you care about the health of the music software industry spend your money on Ableton Live or Bitwig instead of this.
- filleduchaos 6y agoI don't quite see how it's an unsustainably cheap price that none of their competitors can match, considering that the implicit price of Logic includes $1000+ hardware to run macOS on.
- cageface 6y agoBecause you'd also have to pay that $1000 hardware cost to run any other DAW. Apple laptops aren't that much more than PC laptops with comparable specs anymore.
- cma 6y agoThey have no laptop options that don't have soldered in ram and CPU and proprietary SSDs that cost 2-4X per gigabyte to upgrade. You end up with dongles and external drives, and Logic used to go out of its way to make that hard to manage (it has gotten better within the last year or two).
- cageface 6y agoAre there any PC laptops you recommend for music production? I'd like this Macbook I'm typing on now to be my last.
