greetings all,
I am getting ready to do a bit of a drastic change in the studio. I'm bswitching from a Pro Tools based studio to more of a MIDI enviromnet. I'm looking into either Logic Pro or Digital Performer to be the main workhorse, and I'll keep a Pro Tools LE rig on the side for everything else. I mainly do sound design and film scoring/music. I am somewhat new to Logic since the last version I used was 5.5.1 and I have never used DP. I am semi-pro, working on many indie films, games and animations. I have been using Pro Tools, Live, and Reason together for the last few years, but the time has come to get a more sturdy midi program. Almost all of my work is done exclusively through MIDI, mostly by softsynths or plug ins(hence the reason I am moving over pro tools) I'm mainly just wondering what everyones opinions are on the two sequencers I mentioned. Should I go for Logic or DP? I've read about both and they both seem to get pretty good reviews, and they both would do the job I need them for. So, i guess I would just like some user feedback. do both have timecode? does DP support most plug ins( example: native instruments)? do both bounce to quicktime? do they both support 5.1 surround routing and mixing? rewire? Any information on either of these would be great, as I am really cautious about a change like this. Thanks so much for the help. Its appreciated. (oh, i'll be using os x.3.9, G5, etc.) |

QUOTE (chagos @ Jul 29 2005, 08:08) what is a guy suppose to do?????? damn you money! the bane of every musician!!! If you think Logic consider this: Upgrading from Logic 7 to 7.1 , it'll cost you $19.95 DP 4.5 to 4.6 is free. Apple has been in a money grabbing mode lately. |
