OT Logic gets its “X”

Man, no 32 bit support is a big bummer. I dont feel the need to keep up to date with my audio plugins and tools the same way i do with video, cause well i dont really make any money off audio so in order to use this release i would need to spend thousands upgrading my Audio plugins; Native Instruments, Waves, Sonalksis, etc,etc) . Also 10.8.4. means until Media Composer goes up to that i cant use it anyways w/o dual boot.
That said the UI additions look great! Looking fwd to using that interface one day. The mixer is sexy as hell. New Flex tool looks good. New VI’s look cool.
Kinda underwhelming in terms of improving what was already there, audio editing still has a way to go, the sampler needs a complete overhaul to compete with third party offerings, automation, etc.
Lots of mixed feelings about this release but overall relieved they didnt change the core of the app.
Also for for 200 bucks, the price of most plugins these days, this app is a steal!

It definitely has some cool features. Lots of skeumorphism still. I really hate those dials. It makes sense in the real world when you’re adjusting with your fingers but in a digital world on a Wacom… not so much.

For those of us who have never used Logic but dabbled a little in Sound Track Pro many moons ago, can someone comment if using it would benefit a video editor using FCPx?
I remember using Sound Track Pro and it seem a little easier to do stuff like normalize the sound etc but most of that can be done within FCPx now.

So that’s getting clearer – audio comes back into FCPX asa compound clip

Looks very nice. Now if they can just put tracks and stack tracks into FCPX you’d have a killer duo!

I maintain Roles will be the organizational force on the FCPX side. All overlapping lanes in a Role would be a Stack Track, wouldn’t it?

This is kind of a big deal isn’t it? From Alex4D:
“You can export Logic Pro X projects as Final Cut Pro X XML files for import into Final Cut.
You can also choose whether you include the video that’s in Logic Pro X in the XML file. The Logic X project can also be exported so that it appears as a compound clip in an event as well as a Final Cut Pro X project.
You can see Final Cut Pro X projects as movies in Logic Pro X’s media browser.
Logic Pro documents will also appear in Final Cut Pro’s media browser so you can use them in Final Cut events and projects.”

I’d think so.
Always looking at the business side of things, I can’t help but wonder why Apple isn’t exploiting this in their marketing. It might have been good to highlight this with one of their video examples on the Logic Pro X marketing webpages.

[Marcus Moore] “I maintain Roles will be the organizational force on the FCPX side. All overlapping lanes in a Role would be a Stack Track, wouldn’t it?”
I think you’re right. Taking it a step further, speculatively, Maybe they’ll bring Stack Track-like functionality to Roles in FCPX. IOW , Roles would stick together where possible and work as sort of “invisible” Compound Clips? That would be awesome, but it gets a little complicated when you’ve got a multichannel source with multiple embedded Roles. If only one Role is enabled, great, but if you’ve got, say, DIA and FX components enabled in a clip, which group does it live in? Also, this would only work with audio only connected clips… Who knows… gonna be an interesting update whenever it appears…
