Apple Logic Studio: More For Less

When Apple announced it wouldn’t be releasing just an update to Logic Pro 7 but a new suite of tools under the name Logic Studio, it wasn’t a total surprise.  The same product model had already been used by the company to great success with its Final Cut video editing software.  The real shocker was that Apple was offering the entire Logic Studio for half of Logic Pro 7’s original retail price.  At 500 dollars, Logic Studio is positioned at a price point that is appealing to not only audio professionals but also for the serious, quality-minded amateurs, aspiring DJs and garage bands of all stripes.

In addition to the latest (and noticeably slicker) version of its award-winning sequencer and editing software, the new suite of tools includes Studio Instruments and Effects, the Studio Sound Library, the Impulse Response Utility for reverb and effects, Apple Loops Utility, Soundtrack Pro 2 for creating full audio compositions and scores, Compressor 3 for video and audio data compression, WaveBurner Pro for CD mastering, and MainStage, a new application that makes your studio-quality effects work ready for live performances.

By offering such a deep and diverse range of products under one umbrella and at one competitive price point, the team at Apple is doing their best to make Logic Studio (and by extension the Mac) the go-to solution for anyone even remotely serious about working with audio.  And they’ve succeeded.  There is simply no other software solution, feature for feature, that can compare to Logic Studio at the program’s price point.  Much like Final Cut Studio has become a dominant player in the video editing world, Logic Pro 8 and its bundled software offer a robust, user-friendly and affordable solution suitable for seasoned professionals as well as dedicated beginners just looking to get started.  And unlike in the video world, there is no established player like Avid vying for competition.

Available online or as one training package on CD, these videos allow you to learn at your own pace.  And since the course disks are Mac and Windows compatible, you can learn from the comfort of your own desk or from anywhere there’s a computer.
