a huge dif from prices. 7.2 $999 ... now 8 only $499 ... am i seeing things? Its worth buying it for sure. specially me ... there is no version 8 on my country, only 7.2 and its way above $999

 

One question: is it possible to run this full legit version over mac osx86? or does it need to be cracked? ( I'm new on these walks).

 

Start penny pinching guys, Logic Pro 8 and Logic 8 Express is out!

Hey guys!

 

There is no dongle no more! Do you know, what does it mean?

 

:-)

 

P.

 

It means that if you want to have all the contents of Logic Studio, you can have fun waiting for 46GB to download. Then after that, you can have even more fun waiting around for somebody to generously donate their serial number. Plus, who's to say that Apple hasn't found a way to protect their work. For example. have you ever tried to use a non legit version of Ableton Live? It works fine for about 6 months and then it locks you out for good. Most users wind up buying it just to salvage all the work they've done with it lol. When you finish downloading and installing Logic studio next summer, why don't you post back and let us know how it goes ;)

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those holier than thou anti piracy advocates or anything, but I do believe that there are some instances where it is actually better for everybody if you just pay for the software. Logic Studio gives you so much for your money it's ridiculous. I happen to own a legit Logic Pro 7 and the upgrade for me is $200. That includes LP8,Mainstage, STP2, ALL OF THE JAM PACKS, and waveburner and all that. The package size says it all. 46GB of audio tools! Besides, I download only very casually but a 46GB download session I fear would draw too much attention from my ISP. All things considered, in this case I feel it's better to buy.

 

My 0.02 Euros

Yeah i bough the upgrade Jesus the box weighs a Ton ....forget about penny piching load up on the protien shakes....

The Upgrade if u do get it make sure your dongle is the usb.....about the content sure there are some old content included but there are addded sounds and loops,,,,

Yea have fun trying to download that content about the time u download it,,,apple would have merged with redmond APPLESOFT would be the new kidd on the block and LOGIC 15 will be out no seiral or dongle just retna scan and it will unlock the program.

And the OSX will be like a nicotene patch that goes on your arm so u can start your Shintels...and the iphone will be discontunied with the iBrain just walk into any WIFI pass some wind and the call goes thru.......

THINK DIFFERENT!!!!!!! will be changed to DONT THINK....

So dont throw away your dongles anytime soon

I'm glad to see this. A major upgrade for half of the price.

 

I was one of the unfortunate people who couldn't afford Logic Pro 7 @ 1000 dollars. That was a rediculous price tag. But now I'm really considering getting this along w/ reason 4.0. Man I don't even know what this program is capable of right now. What sets this apart from Pro-Tools, Nuendo, Logic, Etc..?

To be honest they all do the same thing! I use ProTools, Logic, Cubase and Digital Performer all in different studios. What it comes down to is what does it fastest what does it easiest and so forth. Looking at the new Logic upgrade there is no question of what one is more user friendly know. But the I must admit the node feature isn't new but it is something that the other companies would want to start incorporating real fast.

the only problem with Pro Tools is that you got to own a m-audio or digidesign soundcard, and lets face it, focusrite saffire is a better soundcard than all the m-audio's and digidesign are just too expensive.

What is included in that box? Why is it soo much bigger than the 7.2?

 

What's included?

 

Logic Pro 8 (DAW with a complete set of instruments and FX plus EXS sampler)

Soundtrack Pro (Post production audio editor)

MainStage (New Live performance app)

Waveburner (Application for Mastering and Redbook CD burning)

File Compression Utility

ALL 5 GarageBand JAM PACKS

tonnes of Apple Loops

Endless GBs of EXS instruments.

 

All this packaged on about 8 DVDs. Logic Studio totals at about 46GB of apps, instruments and samples. There is also a 1000 page printed manual for LP8 and seperate printed manuals for the other apps and plugins (There are pdfs on the DVDs too). All that for $500 new $200 upgrade. I'd rather spend the $200 (I already own LP7) and get the whole package than wait the impossible amount of time it will take to download. I checked the green demon and even just the core package is 7GB. :censored2: THAT!!

Guys, let me know if it works well under 10.4.9i or whatever version you've got. I'm really tempted to sell my Cubase SL3.

I bought Logic express 7 recently and the upgrade is cheap so it's certainly worth considering. Particularly since 7.0 is not really working properly - graphical errors.

46GB :(
