Hey guys, I’m have been going back and forth on which software to get to record an album. Logic Pro vs. Live 8 Suite. Or Logic Express vs. Live 8 or Live 7LE. I like how Live lets you group your tracks into scenes. Can Logic do anything to make exploring different arrangements of a song easily without sliding tracks around and making umpteen versions of the same song?

Thanks for your help,

Alana

The picture in the tunnel was very well framed and composed - with the subjects on the left and the tunnel in both the background and the foreground.

Hey Andrews Peters (that’s like Ricky Bobbie of Talledega Nights - You’ve got 2 first names!!! Awesome! heh)

Thanks for dishing out the love, we’re feelin’ in over here. Just checked out the FB page, pretty cool that you’re uploading the episodes cos not everyone 1) Has cable 2) Subscribes to StarWorld 3)Is in front of the tube at the time the show screens. So what you’re doing is a big help, especially since I fall into Cat 1). Don’t know about Mark though..

Sooooo… I know someone’s gonna call us to inform when our epi is on, but have you got any idea?

@jakub : I’ll amend my previous statement; I made the comparison without realizing that Logic Express 8 had more features than the previous versions of Logic Express that I was familiar with. It offers much better value now.

However, I still feel that Logic Studio is better overall value (even at more than double the price), given all the stuff and flexibility it offers. But if you don’t really need the flexibility or extras, Logic Express will work better for you (since it’s more streamlined) and will be cheaper.

In all fairness, I still use Garageband sometimes (although not to mix), so you can still make great music with limited tools.

Hi guys,

I just wanted to tell you what a cool thing it is that you both are doing this! I wish I was back there to come hear you guys but YouTube and this site will have to suffice.

I took the liberty of writing a blog post about you both just to spread the word! Great job you two! And the songs are awesome! LOVE IT!

Much support & love from NY!

I must disagree with Sean in this point (but I like Keyofgrey!). Logic Express is GREAT step from GarageBand - originally I wanted just to expand GB with some better drum machine, then I have found that for bit more money (compared to iDrum) I may get Logic Express with amazing Ultrabeat drums, EXS sampler, lots of plugins etc.
Difference between Studio and Express is surely huge for professionals, but for “hobby” musicians like me Express is far more than enough.

Hey again Sean from keyofgrey.com! Must say you’re quite the know-alot-of-deep-stuff in terms of music editing tools! About Logic express, sounds like it doesn’t make too much an impact for editing. Maybe Jakub could have a go at this interesting mental sparring of minds.

By the way, which program do you use for editing music?

@Jason Ho: You can get Logic Express off the Apple website directly. Both Logic Studio and Express are available with heavy educational discounts I believe. So if you are a student, or know someone who’s a student, you can definitely get a good deal.

I will be frank though, Logic Express isn’t nearly as good a value proposition as Logic Studio. The reason why is that Logic Express has very few plug-ins or sample content. Basically Logic Express only allows you to record your music; there isn’t much in the way of professional mixing or effects plugins. It’s barely a step up from Garageband. If you are looking for cheap solutions to just record music, I would suggest looking at Reaper which can be had for very little money. If you’re serious though, you should take the plunge with Protools 8, or Logic Studio (using a student discount of course). I was trying to get manufacturers to send me review versions of software so I could run a Protools/Cubase/Ableton/Logic comparison, but they weren’t too receptive to the idea. When Ableton 8 comes out, I’ll probably buy it and do a review on it though. Cheers!
