I Just got my powerbook, yay! its the 1.33ghz 512mb ram, with the fast harddrive (7800rpm i think). I've got the Edirol fa-101 for my audio interface.
Right now I'm using reason 2.5, I'm lookng to add audio to my tracks. Should I go with Cubase or Logic for this? they both support rewire as far as I know. I have no experience with either program so will be learning which ever I choose. Seems like most people talk about using logic in this forum and a friend said "logic hands down". Just wondering what some others think before I go dropping a grand. thanks in advance, JS |

Here's the opinions I have gathered from years of forum searching and conversations:
Cubase is the sequencer of choice for PC users. Logic is the sequencer of choice for Macs, although DP has a very strong following. Logic has better CPU efficiency and is quicker to keep up with the changes in the marketplace (first to add AU). DP (which I use and love) is very stable, has good tech support, is far cheaper than Logic, is a smaller company and its fans are very close knit. It strongly resembles Opcode which was a very popular sequencer of old. The only negative I've heard about Logic is that it is more complex to learn (less user friendly at the beginning). Logic users say that once this hurdle is cleared, it does more than other sequencers and does it better. (Also rock solid). My opinion: I could not keep Cubase from crashing on my Mac. I could not afford the $1000 price tag for pro logic and bought DP4. I've been very happy with that decision. |
