Am i able to sell Logic studio?

I bought Logic studio brand new a couple of months back and basically i don't use it, I find it difficult to grasp and i no longer want to keep it!
Its a fully legit copy and its registered to me currently. So am i able to sell this on ebay to try and recoup any money back? Because i have removed it from my system because i need the space and i just don't want to use it anymore so is there any issues with the new user wanting to register it again if its already been done once before? or do i have to contact apple and get a new registration or something?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Yes you can, a one time license transfer is allowed under the terms of your license. Read your license for the full details and requirements.

Logic Studio vs. Pro Tools?

Hi, I'm new posting in this forum so please bear with me if my questions are simple.
Anyway, I've been a Pro Tools LE (w/ Mbox) user for about 6 years now. I'm satisfied with the software and quality of the recordings, but the problems I've dealt with are endless. Between constant updates from Digidesign, computer errors and too many malfunctions, I've become exhausted with the program.
Anyway, my school store sells Logic Studio for dirt cheap and I'm thinking about making the switch. Before I do this though, any advice, stories, or related experiences would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to make the move if I'm not going to see an overall improvement from Pro Tools.
On a last note, Logic studio does not come with an audio interface, correct? If not, does anyone know if I could use Mbox to sync up with Logic?
Again, any advice on this subject is incredibly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

It really depends on what you are doing. Each program has it's strengths. The "endless updates" from PT are pretty welcome to most users, as Digi stays on the program and gives free CS updates to fix bugs (sometimes before people have even found them) unlike Logic which can go for months on end without an update. The strength of Pro Tools is that you will always see new stuff coming out in the program, as Digidesign does not sell iPhones or computers and concentrates on just Pro Tools.
OTOH, Logic is way ahead of Pro Tools in it's handling of virtual instruments, you will never get PT to handle the load of VIs that Logic can. Whether that's important to you can only be determined by whether you are principally a composer or a person dealing more with audio.
PT8 will address many Midi shortcomings according to the feature list on their site and will close the gap significantly with Logic in some ways, but the program is still not the native powerhouse Logic is. I ran Nuendo on the Mac and it wasn't either. I've done ridiculously intense sessions on Logic 8.02 with my CPU half asleep...it's very, very impressive.
Best is getting something cheap like the MBOX Pro (Firewire) and being able to use both for their strengths. Personally I MUCH prefer dealing with mixing in Pro Tools, but not if a lot of virtual instruments are involved.

Logic Studio on a MacBookPro

I really need a portable DAW. Would I be able to use Logic Studio on a MacBook Pro??
Neil

When you guy installed Logic Studio on your MBP did it take a very long time to install all the disc.... I started on it at the end of the night and had to go to bed and would wake up in the middle of the night and change disc due to it saying it would take 7 hours... and then I woke up this morning to look at disc 3 and it said 11 hours left... I forced quit the installer and want to rethink maybe what I really need to install... I don't believe I'm going to need soundtrack pro content so should just leave it out.... What do you guys think should I go in and delete all the files before reinstalling or just start reinstalling and let it write over anything..... Thanks you so much.. I just got the MBP and have been installing all my software without verifying permissions or anything like that ... So I think that could've been part of the cause.....

Is there really a tutorials DVD with Logic Studio?

Hi there. I installed Logic Studio a couple of days ago and so far its going great. One questions I had is about the INSTALLING YOUR SOFTWARE booklet that came in the box. On page 2 about halfway down it says;
"Logic Studio Demo Songs and Tutorials DVD: The DVD contains a collection of demo songs and video tutorials for your Logic Studio applications. The disk is also a DVD-cVideo, so you may view the tutorials using the DVD player application or any compatible, stand-alone DVD player."
I can open up and play the DEMO files just fine (the roots, plaid etc) but I am not able to play any Tutorials with the "DVD PLAYER" application on my computer.
Other DVDs (like movies) play just fine and of course I was able to install Logic Studio so the DVD drive itself works fine.
Any thoughts? Am I reading this wrong? Has anyone found the Logic Studio tutorial videos that come in the box?
Thanks,
Morris

From the Late Breaking News document:
*Corrections to the Logic Pro Documentation*
The following section contains information on errata in the Logic Pro documentation,
resulting from changes made to Logic Pro after the documentation was completed.
*Tutorial and Content DVD Is Data Disk Only*
The Logic Studio Demo Songs and Tutorials DVD described in the Installing Your
Software manual has been renamed to Logic Studio Demo Content. It is a data disc
only, and cannot be played on a DVD player or in a DVD player application.

Does logic 9 from the app store have everything that you would get if you were to buy it in the store?, and are you able to upgrade to studio later on?

Hi
Logic Studio is not available anymore, so unless you can find an "old stock" copy somewhere, you will never be able to upgrade in the future.
Logic Pro 9 has all the content from the Studio box available for download, with the exception of the 20G of Soundtrack Pro content. Soundtrack Pro is no longer available at all.
Logic Studio also contained several other applications: Mainstage, Compressor (available separately from the AppStore), Waveburner (no longer available), plus some other utilities.

Not able to install Logic on mac with OSX. 10.8.2. Error message: Logic Studio.mpkg cannot be opened as the power pc programs are no longer supported. I have logic studio 8 software purchased in 2007 and upgraded with logic studio 9 (purchased in 2009)

After an earlier attempt to move Logic from my other mac (OSX 10.6.8) with the migration assistant to my new mac with OSX 10.8.2. I've re-started the whole start up process by erasing the hard drive from the new machine and build it up from scratch. After a new "out of the box" start, I decided to install LOGIC from my disks : starting with my 2007 package Logic Studio 8 and upgrading with my Logic 9 package from 2009. When trying to start to install 2008 I got the error message : Logic Studio.mpkg cannot be opened as the power pc programs are no longer supported.
What does this mean? HOw do I get this working under 10.8.2 as it works flawlessly under OSX 10.6.8. For sure I didn't buy a new machine to have OSX 10.8.2 but I suspect this is the roadblock to installing my logic package.
Help!

Mark,
Sorry...
I completely lost the thread (I actually got confused between you and another poster on a another forum that was asking the same basic question) and somehow ended up thinking you were trying to install on a PPC Mac
My apologies and please ingnore those parts of my last post relating to the PPC Macs...
You have an Intel Mac and therefore Logic Studio 2 Boxed Upgrade set should install/run on your Mac without issue. As I said earlier.. you do not need to try and install from the original Logic Studio 1 /Logic 8 Boxed set...(It won't work anyhow because you have an Intel Mac and that version had a PPC installer) but just install from the Logic Studio 2 / Logic Pro 9 Upgrade Boxed setof DVDs instead...
Have you tried the "Make Disk Image" solution I gave earlier? That normnally works under such circumstances as what you are describing can happen when your DVD drive cannot read the DVDs correctly... I have had this situation myself where one drive read them okay and another failed to do so for whatever reason. Making and then installing from Disk images of those exact same disks resolved the issue for me...
You can try to reinstall directly from the DVDs of course though under some circumstances it may not allow you to reinstall Logic Pro itself if that part of the original installation attempt was successful... in which case you can also try this... (It's probably the easiest method if Logic 9 was already installed and present in your Apps Folder)
If the Logic Pro App is in your applications folder..
Run Software Updates to update Logic Pro to a version that will run under 10.8.2 (The initially installed version of Logic will not)
Run Logic
Go to the menu bar in Logic and select Logic Pro/Install Additional Content and select all content in there..
This content is basically exactly the same as what is stored on the remaining DVDs of the boxed set so you might not need to use the rest of the DVDs to install from but download it all instead from Apple Servers...

Logic Pro7 - Logic Studio (8) for sale?

Hello everyone.
I'd like to share my dilemma with you.
I bought LogicStudio last week and wanted to update from Pro7 to 8. Well easy enough, I just needed to buy a bigger Hard Disc, because my old system disc was almost full. So I did that and then went on to finish one project in Pro7. After that I wanted to install 8!! However at the last hurdle the Pro7 dongle stopped working. None of my computers (i.e. G5, MacBook & iMacG3) is seeing the dongle anymore - it's basically BROKEN (I didn't wanna use the F word here)!
Went to the Apple store, but they don't deal with "outdated" software and hardware - could have saved that journey...
Instead I rang Apple care. Not only did I have to speak to someone who doesn't speak English very well, but also I had to learn that a replacement dongle will cost me £65 (€130). And I will need this dongle in order to install the upgrade version of Logic Studio (even if I didn't want to use Pro7 anymore).
Well I managed to speak to the supervisor at the call centre and his English was understandable. However my Pro7 was originally purchased by my ex-employer (a college where I used to teach Logic and Music Production) and I am not able to produce the original proof of purchase, which Apple wants to see.
As I can't afford the £65 (€130) to buy a new dongle I have decided to re-sell my 'brand-new' and 'un-used/registerred' version of Logic Studio for the same price I bought it for (£129 ovno) so then I can buy the new dongle and carry on using Pro7....
Bummer ! ! !

When you say you bought Logic 8, my guess is you meant you bought the upgrade from 7 to 8, which is alot cheaper but requires the dongle from 7 to install and authorise it.
So i understand your problem is -
you haven't used 8 yet but now you can't use 7, or upgrade to 8, because your dongle is broken.
That is a bummer - you could try selling the upgrade for the original price to buy a second hand 7, but this seems a shame, effectively selling a new version to buy an old one.
7 goes for between 50 - 100 of your english pounds on ebay.
I don't think you'll get the original price for the upgrade, but you could maybe raise £100ish...
Is £65 so much to raise to properly upgrade? Best bet I reckon.

Logic Studio 2009 Educational Terms of Use

I am considering the purchase of Logic Studio 2009 from my University, but before I do, I have a question. Are there any terms binding me from commercializing my work on the educational version - ie can I legally sell my work created from this student license?
Another question I have is: Will I be able to upgrade to newer versions (when they come out) with the educational license?

How do I make sure my Logic Studio is legally registered to me?

My partner and I are professional Musicians and I purchased my Logic Studio from a legit store online and have registered ity accordingly with Apple over the phone, so that I know its registered to me. My partner purchased his Logic Studio from someone on Craigslist, and I told him how important it is that he make sure to register his Logic in his name with the proper support at Apple. But when he called them to register it, they told hime he needed to register it online or pay for customer service in order to register it with them. Firstly, does that sound right? Why wouldn't Apple just register it to him while they had him on the phone, wanting to do that? I don't really see how registering a product to your name is the same as paying for technical support...? Secondly, we can't find anywhere online to register it? Where on earth do you go to register logic online?
Anyone with some answers that could help with these questions would be greatly appreciated. I just want to be sure our butts are covered when we put stuff out in public domain, that its all made on software that is legally licensed to us. There were some horror stories in Music Business class in college, and neither of us want to be "THAT GUY", if you know what I mean...?
Anyway, can anyone help shed some light on these issues for me please?
Thank you
Sublimaze69

Apple does not require registration of software online. It's sufficient to enter the serial number at first run. This assumes the seller provided the original purchase information including the box with the serial number.

Unable to Install Logic Studio

I am trying to install Logic Studio and am failing every time.
I have a Powerbook G4 1.5 Ghz with 1.25 mb Ram running OSX 10.4.10
I am able to start the installation, choose the location of the install, and select which components I'd like to install. I have decided to limit the install to only Logic Pro and leave out all the other programs as my harddrive doesn't have the space.
So according to that, only two items are checked. Logic Pro, and Apple Loops Utility under Tools. It's telling me that it requires 5.7 GB harddrive space, which I have. I click upgrade and type in my password. It installs Logic Pro, installs Logic Node, and when it tries to move on to Logic Utility (or something like that, the screen changes too quickly) it goes to 3% and gives me an error.
Then it tells me to "please try installing again"
I've tried installing logic node separately but it still doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong? Normally I'm ok with computers, but i guess only on PC's. Macs are a new world to me.
I just realized I only have Garageband 2. Is it because I don't have Garageband 8?

Maybe this is inapropriate but I once got very lucky by just cleaning the DVD which was full of finger prints, After I cleaned it...It worked.
Like must of us I have a lot of experience being frustrated, even the most knowlegable among us get frustrated at time.
What I would do is proceed in a mechanical way step by step (computers hate this)
1. Clean DVD,
2. Seat down and read the install procedure.
3. Disk Utility, Startup disk>Verify and Repair disk permission
2. Trash Logic Pro 8, Sound Track Pro, Main Stage and Garage Band (Save GarageBand Files
somewhere else if you need too)
3. Go toFinder > Empty Trash
4. re-install The absolute minimum (No Node dont need this yet) (Maybe you're forced to it I dont
remember) but if you have the choice the answer is always NO
5. Proceed slowly reading carefully all instructions.
6. Repeat 1-5. If this dont work Maybe you have deficient DVD's it Happen (It happen to me)
Honestly Your system seams to be bare bone minimum to run Logic Pro 8. Maybe Logic has out grow it.
Best of luck

Why wont my Logic Studio installer fully install?

i had manually uninstalled logic studio months ago.. now that i have an external hd im installing it again but it wont install many of the other components.. they are grayed out and uncheckable (soundtrack pro, compressor, apple loops, and many more)... i need help so that i can have logic studio on my mac and the additional content on my external hd...
thanks in advance!

Although not offically supported, there is a workaround people have been using to get Logic 8 to work on Lion. All you need to do is highlight the Logic 8 app in finder, right-click, select "Show Package Contents", double click on the "Contents" folder and inside of this folder is a folder that's labled "MacOs." If you double-click on the "Logic Pro" file inside, Logic 8 will open. You might be able to make an alias of this file to cut out the other steps, but I haven't tried it.
This works for people who already had Logic 8 installed and upgraded to Lion.

Logic Studio Install Problems

Purchased Logic Studio a couple weeks ago. The first set I recieved would not install correctly and it errored out several times regardless of how I went about installing it. Contacted Apple Support and they indicated I may have a bad set of disks so I returned my set and recieved a new set yesterday. Install problems continue but now different. Orginal set woudl load a coiuple of disks then error out. This set will laod the install disk then when asked to insert the Audio Content 1 disk the computer will spin th edisk around a few times the spit it out. Tried several times and even tried inserting other content disks. I've read some of the conent here and some mention a possibel bad DVD Drive but I do no think my DVD Drive is the problem since after trying the Logic Studio set I successfully installed FrameForge.
When I attempted to install the first set of disks last week I was able to select all the options, SoundTrack Pro, Mainstage, etc. On this set my SoundTrack Pro option is grayed out and I cannot select it to load. I read here last week, when the first set would not load, to remove everything associated with Logic Studio and try again, which I did. Is it possible there are remneants remaining somewhere on my system that is disallowing the SoundTrack install this time?
My system config is:
Processor: 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048MB
Software: Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)
1TB Internal SATA Disk (This is the drive I am attempting to load on)
256GB Flash Storage
12TB (RAID 5 Configure to 6TB) Pegasus External
This evening I will call Apple Support again, but any advice from the audience is much appreciated.

I bought logic studio 8 used, how can I register it to my name?, I bought logic studio 8 used, how can I register it to my name?

I bought this Logic studio 8 from craigs list, the guy who sold it to me said he never registered the program but I asume he installed it in his mac which he also said that it crashed and that was the reason to get rid of logic since he is using a pc now.
He gave me the box with the serial numbers and prod ID as well as the manuals and dvds which I took and installed in my mac laptop so my question is, can I register this software to my name and how does this works?
I know you can only install it in a desktop and a laptop belonging to only one owner.

Thanks KiltedTim.
I know a person who usedit for couple of months and now he would like to sell it.
I want to know if anyone can use it in India. When I say "use" that means download apps and purchase music from the store.
I am asking this because that Iphone ll be registered in USA.

Which version is good for me to buy? Logic 8 express or Logic studio?

As I said in another post, I did till now all my work in Garageband. I compose mainly classical music for all kind of instruments, I don't do anything with electronic music, nor do I write pop kind of music. What I did in Garageband was setting up my tracks for the orchestra instruments, or solo piano, or chamber instruments, give them a pan position according to the Jam pack orchestra manual, and added at the end of the recording some reverb. The result is mostly good enough but especially for bigger instrumental groups, like orchestra or strings, I am not happy with the result.
This is the reason I am looking around in the Logic 8 world. I want to have better results. My question now is should I buy Logic Studio or Logic 8 express?
What is the difference between the two except the extra jam packs? I already have the Orchestra and voices jam pack and have many orchestral sound fonts that I bought in the past.
Mainstage is meant to be used for stage performence, right? I will never use something like that if it is, or maybe I didn't understand yet what Mainstage is about.
Studio effects: Logic 8 express does also have reverb effect, but are they good enough to make a good classical orchestral recording? Or do I need Studio for this?
Soundtrack Pro 2: A wave editor. This maybe I could use although I never felt the need for this in Garageband. Still, you never know.
SO what do I miss exactly when buying the express version?
Hope to get some advice on this.
Andr+e

Continue to use GarageBand until some new update for Logic Pro is released because upon opening your GarageBand 09 v5.0.1 projects into Logic Pro 8.0.2 you will receive the message, "Warning! This Project was created by a newer Logic Pro version. This may cause problems. Please update Logic Pro." After I hit "OK", a message says, "Logic Pro: Plug-in “Pedals” not available!, and then "Logic Pro: Plug-in “AmpSim2” not available!
Logic Pro is not for sampling right now because of my experience using it with my Mac Pro (Early 2008) 8 Core 3.2GHz, 32 Gig RAM, and Quadro FX 5600. I told the Apple store sales guy at the Apple Store that I needed comparable hardware and software for my new Mac Pro comparable to my Tascam GigaSampler PC workstation. He also had me get advice from the top trainer for Apple Logic Pro One to One training at their store. I made it clear my needs were to have the same capabilities and performance at that time that are possible with Tascam GigaSampler. The trainer said he sold his PC he used for sampling. So, in order to afford my Mac Pro, I sold my PC. Big mistake. Now I have not been able to continue working on many projects, now in the in-progress archive of mine, that I can not open anymore because Logic will not access even 3 Gigs of memory for projects with the EXS24 or any other sampler for that matter. With my Tascam Gigasampler accessing 16 Gigs was a breeze with no error messages. This enhancement will not be available until some update is released for Logic Pro above version 8.0.2.

How do I get signal from my Roland Fantom G8 to Logic Studio or GarageBand?

My computer recently crashed, and since then I have not been able to record any music into either Logic Studio or GarageBand. I need to get back up and running ASAP, as I'm in the middle of recording music for 5 different projects. Here's all the gear that I have:
-1 Roland Fantom G8
-1 iMac with Logic Studio and GarageBand
-1 M-Audio Fast Track Ultra
-2 Rokit KRK Monitors
-1 USB cable
-1 midi cable
-2 1/4-inch cables
-2 1/4-in to XLR cables
The 2 1/4-inch cables run from Balanced Outputs 1 and 2 on the back on the Fantom G8 into Inputs 1 and 2 on the back of the Fast Track Ultra. The 2 1/4-inch to XLR cables run from the back of the 2 KRK monitors into Outputs 1 and 2 on the back of the Fast Track Ultra. The Fast Track Ultra is powered via USB cable that runs into a USB port on the back of my iMac. The midi cable runs from the "Computer" port on the back of the Fantom G8 into a USB port on the back of my iMac. This is the exact set-up I had before my computer crashed, and I was able to record just fine. When I open up the audio preferences on either Logic Studio or GarageBand now, it recognizes the Fast Track Ultra; however, it does not recognize the Fantom G8. What I'm trying to do is get signal from my Fantom G8 into both Logic Studio and GarageBand. I also want that sound to then project through my KRK monitors. I also want to be able to record audio and midi. Please help me!!!

I used the Fantom for several years and did exactly what you want to do. I simply plugged my Fantom into a channel on my mixer, in your case the 003. I ran a firewire out of my mixer (Presonus Studio Live) into my computer using Logic Pro X. Then I just assigned that incoming channel to a channel strip in Logic. As an example I used stero channel 9/10 on my mixer, (plugged in the Fantom here). Then the signal went via my mixer firewire to computer running Logic. I assigned my channel strip input to channel 9/10.
Does this make sense?
I just sold my Fantom last week and purchased a new Yamaha Motif XF8. Now I am trying to figure out the same thing on it.

Am i able to sell Logic studio?
