Pro Logic/Studio on Macbook

Hi people
I'm a newbie here so easy on me.
In short, whats the difference between Pro Logic 8 and Studio (or are they the same).
Also, would my macbook run it? Its the first gen macbook from the other year, black one with 2gb and 80gb hard drive
Any answers would be welcome
Thanks
Adam

Hi Adam,
I don't know drumagog and what kind of a cpu-hog it might be, but just to give you an idea:
7 Audio Tracks
1 Pro 53
1 Massive (which has "massive" impact on cpu)
2 EXS24 Samplers
1 Guitar Amp Pro
1 Space Designer
and lots of EQs and compressors
does between 5 and 30%
You should be able to double your setup without running into problems
Have fun, Henrik

Logic Pro, Logic Studio and Logic Express

Can someone explain the difference between Logic Pro, Logic Studio and Logic Express?

Hi,
I don't think your friend is right on this. When you install Logic X, only the most essential part will be downloaded. After that you open Logic X, and from within the program you can download all the other content. Logic will look if you already have Logic 9 content on your harddisk, so it won't download files that are already present. So, after all is downloaded, all files are on your harddisk, just like Logic 9. By the way, Logic 9 will still be available after installing Logic X.
Whether you will experience crashes will be very hard to prodect, because these will be caused by unforeseen combinations of your computer, audio interfaces, maybe even other hardware, kernel extensions etcetera. If you wait for a couple of months, updates of Logic X will probably have less crashes. As said, on my computer it's just as solid as Logic 9.
Garittan will probably advise a fast harddisk to prevent complaints when people are pushing the plugin to the edge. I would expect that it's not a black/white story.
The AUMatrixreverb can be found in any audio plugin slot completely at the bottom: Audio Units > Apple > AUMatrixReverb.
About the Epiano: in Logic Express there is only the Garageband Epiano, I think. Logic Pro 9 had a great ePiano that they gave a new name and changed a bit in Logic X. Both very nice.
Yes, you may be right, not too many drums with brushes in Logic X, I think. Or does anybody else know where to look??
Kind regards,
Jaap

Logic Studio and MacBook Pro

I'm looking into purchasing a new MacBook Pro and wanted to make sure of something. I want to get Logic Studio for work purposes, and even though the tech specs match up, is it too much for a MacBook? I mostly need the mobility and don't want to have it tied down to a desktop system.
Thank you.

I'm running Logic Studio on a late 208 unibody Macbook Pro without issue, so should work fine

Cant install Logic Studio on Macbook Pro

Tryin to install on my original Logic Studio on my new MacBook Pro 2.6 Intel Core I7 as an admin but it wont accept my serial number?
Have it on my Mac Pro and there was no problem to install.
Anyone knows how to resolve this problem?

Correct. The current latest Version is 9.1.8

HT2375 Logic pro - Logic studio

Hi! Is it possible for me to use my library-dvds from Logic Studio 8, when installing Logic Pro 9?

The thing is that I've heard that if you've allready got LS8 installed, LP9 will automatically replace or work beside LS8. And they are able to share jam&audio. But in my case its a new installation, where my new mac doesn't accept my "powerPC Logic8". So my real question should have been. Can I buy LP9, install it, and hope it will ask for jam&audio-disks. And if that is the case, will it accept/communicate with my old LS8 -disks? Ooooor, do I have to buy the whole Logic Studio 9 -package? Thanks for all the help btw...

Logic studio on macbook?

hi all......
if i am to run logic studio on a macbook w/maxed out ram and an 80 gb hd w/30% free space, will i experience any significant gliches and slowdowns in performance? also, after i install the upgrade, can i delete the previous versions of logic (6&7) currently on my machine? ( i am a live performance musician very intrigued with mainstage.....heard it was in the works and sounds like it is just the thing for my application)......
any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi, Jim -
I can't directly answer your question (yet), but like you, I have been running Logic 7.2 on my MacBook 2GHz with appx. 30% free on my stock 80GB hard drive, and it purrs. It worked fine with 1GB RAM, but I noticed it really got smoother when I installed 2GB of RAM. I have used Logic for live keyboard work, but since until now Logic really wasn't set up for it, I always had a backup plan.
I would imagine having extra RAM will matter all the more when playing live with MainStage, since being able to load instruments into RAM (rather than streaming from disk) will be even more advantageous.
In a week or so, I will know how L8 and MainStage work on a MacBook. I am optimistic!

Final Cut Studio 2 and Logic Studio on MacBook

I have a white MacBook bought in late 2008. It has a 2.1 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor w/ 1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
My question is: has anyone run Final Cut Studio 2 and/or Logic Pro with these specs? And how was it?
I was told performance would be weak. I was also told nothing could be done to improve the performance other than buy a MacPro or at the very least get a MacBookPro. I have no reason NOT to believe this but I am interested in a second opinion.

Hi there,
Ignore the other posts, both run absolutely fine on a macbook! I use final cut studio 2 on a white macbook and so do about 10 of my friends almost without problem. Final cut works perfectly, dvd sp works perfectly, motion works perfectly, soundtrackpro works perfectly! the only problem i ever had was rendering with 'color', none of my other friends grade their videos so they have no problems at all. Are you going to do any grading?
I believe the macbook is not officially supported though, so I don't think you'll be able to get help from apple if there's any problem solving to be done. I've been using FCP and FCS for years now though and have honestly never had a problem I couldn't solve myself
Logic also runs amazingly well too.
hope that helps

Is macbook or macbook pro the best for logic studio

I was wondering if i just bought a macbook and maxxed it out would pro logic 8 run good on it or should i just invest in a macbook pro? I guess my question is what is the difference in the 2 as pertaining to running pro logic studio? I would also be installing battey and the komplete synth line from native instruments as well..just to verify my usage.....thanx

Lots of people are running Logic Studio on MBs with no trouble. I'd definitely max out your RAM if you're using Komplete. And you probably want the biggest hard drive you can get, so that Logic doesn't take up all the space on it--some of the content can be installed on an external, but a lot of it has to be on your system drive.

Logic Studio, MacBook pro, M-Audio ProFire 610, M-Audio Axiom 61

I'm just about to get the above: Logic Studio, MacBook Pro, M-Audio ProFire 610 and the M-Audio Aziom 61, and want to know if any of the above (Logic Studio and MacBook Pro excluded) are a big mistake. I've been using an Aluminium Powerbook 17" 1.33MHz, and M-Audio MobilePre USB, and an Edirol controller, with guitar rig (and Controller), and Logic Express 7.
I need a set-up that will work as well in the studio, as it does on stage. We tend to plug everything in to the powerbook at the moment, and use Reason to power the synths, guitar rig for the guitars and bass, and logic express plugins for vocals etc.
Anyone have any experience with any of the above?
Cheers,
Adam

Hi Zuelito,
Please read my first paragraph again:
"I gotta RESPECTFULLY take issue with every point you bring up about M-Audio stuff, Zuelito..."
I'm not sure how you can be "slightly put off by the tenor" of my post given everything I said, with the one possible exception being my line about MOTU making crappy hardware - and that was based on personal experience. And while we're talking about the opinions of others, feel free to peruse the Unicornation board - it's full of MOTU users talking about firewire port failures and other hardware issues - so it appears neither of us is alone in our experiences
Seriously, if I was in some way brash or offensive in the way my post came off, I publicly and sincerely apologize. I really try to think about what I say (and how I say it) when posting on the 'net, for this very reason. I thought I simply stated my experience in an informative manner; again, please re-read my post - I hope it comes across as intended.
For what it's worth, I will say (even more clearly) that I've always loved MOTU products in terms of feature set; maybe that's why I've owned almost every product they've ever made! However, in my environment, I simply can't risk hardware failures, and their stuff has let me down too many times to keep rolling the dice. I will also divulge that one of their top tech support guys has acknowledged the firewire port problem. That's a shame, because they do make great stuff, conceptually. I really wish I could take a chance on that new 896mk3, but it ain't gonna happen for me; 6 dead firewire ports is enough of a failure rate for me to give up on them. To be fair, this probably isn't an issue for fixed installations, but I have to make these connections daily while on tour.
Also, I did NOT categorically state that "M-Audio stuff is better than MOTU." Again, if you re-read my post, it should be obvious that all I'm saying is I have a newfound respect for M-Audio, as of the new ProFire series. I also said in my first paragraph that I shared your opinion of M-Audio for a long time!
If this were all about M-Audio's 410 vs. MOTU's Ultralite (or other competition), we probably wouldn't even be having this discussion as I would have agreed with you - but the original poster specifically asked about the newer 610 with Logic, which is what I'm using on one of my rigs. I simply offered my personal experience.
As for drivers, I've not had any problems with M-Audio or their level of support. Just the opposite - they really seem to be on the ball and are way more communicative than other mfrs. I don't know of any other mfr. that supports each OS subrelease in detail like they do, and their development speed seems as fast (if not faster) than anyone else.
Finally, until now I've only owned a few M-Audio pieces (410, 1814), but I can state that they've been flawless. Their audio quality was not 'high end' by any stretch, but I only used them for utility purposes (writing rigs on the road, etc.). Like I said, my main studio stuff has been RME or Apogee for years, and that's the quality level I'm used to - which is why the 610 really surprised me. I also have several friends who do a LOT of touring, many of which rely on M-Audio hardware (mostly 410s). One guy's unit doesn't even have any paint left on it from road abuse - but it still works like a champ after 4 years.
So anyway, this is all just my experience. Hope it doesn't come across as anything but that
Peace,
Jim

Logic Studio isnt showing up anywhere on my macbook pro

I just bought a macbook pro and logic, installed logic all the way and it asked me to put in the original Logic Studio Install disk, it said it was installed, ejected the disk, now i cant find it in applications or in the finder? i've just reinserted the studio install disk and it says it has 12 gb of data to install, as opposed to the original 55 gb? Whats up?

Nevermind, the installer repeated itself three times over and on the third time for some reason it worked.

Newly installed logic studio won't launch on my macbook pro

I just installed Logic Studio on my macbook pro (core 2) and it crashes before it can launch all the way. could this be a conflict with my protools LE software, or Reason? any ideas? thanks.

Have you downloaded the .01 update for LP8? That should improve things a fair bit. Don't know about the MBox2; might want to their website on that one.
Cheers

Getting a new MacBook Pro, Upgrade to Logic Studio 9?

Hey all. I'm getting a new Macbook Pro soon, and I was thinking of upgrading to Logic Studio 9. I own a legit retail edition copy of the previous Logic Studio (Pro 8), and I was thinking of just installing 9 on my new computer.
What things will I need to do this upgrade? I still have the original box, with the manuals. Including the one booklet that has the serial number stickers on it.
Many thanks in advance.

Thanks for the answers guys. It was running in my mind, especially this is the first time I'm doing a program upgrade like this. Thanks alot!

Logic Studio on new Macbook pro retina

Hi,
after 6 years my macbook "died" ... :-( I am thinking about buying a new macbook pro retina..
My Problem is, how can i install the logic studio with the dvds if there is no dvd device?
thanks for you advise and ideas!
Philipp

The same way you have to install all software that comes on CD/DVD:
either you buy an external DVD USB drive
or you share the drive from a second Mac (via the Sharing system preferences)

I cannot load logic studio into my retina macbook pro from disc

I am trying to load logic studio from the upgrade discs that I brought when it first came out and it's not loading on my retina macbook pro. I'm loading it through the external superdrive. any help would be great.

Could it be because you are trying to install from upgrade discs? Do you have the installation media for whatever version you upgraded from? If so, you might try installing that version and then doing the upgrade installation over that.
