What do you want to see in Logic 10?

Liquorpuki said:
Looking at what Apple just did to FCPX, anybody think they're gonna do something similar to the next release of Logic?

After all, Logic and FCP are like brothers - both of them are Apple's flagship pro software, just in different markets.

Thoughts? Worries?

I'm not sure. FCPX seems to have failed with the way the product was launched, not the actual product. It misses a lot of pro features and is probably very buggy. That's ok for a first version product to a certain extent, especially if they would have made it clear that it's not in it's final version. But I think the biggest fail is that FCP7 can't be purchased any more and there is no way to import projects from FCP7 to FCPX. So you can't buy a fully featured video editing software from Apple and if you have some stuff in FCP7 it's pretty much stuck there.

I think it kind of blew out of proportion and Apple is being an idiot not to bring back FCP7 for a transition period, especially the way the answer their FAQ on their website, it's obviously not ready for prime time.

But, the big reason for this is because FCP was rewritten completely from Carbon to Cocoa and with a new workflow.

I don't think Apple would be stupid enough to pull the same prank twice and I think we are much less likely to see an app that is completely new with Logic. Logic is already in Cocoa 64bit and I don't really see how they could completely change the workflow.
 
Hmm... I don't use Logic nearly as often as Ableton Live, so I guess I that means I really just want Logic to be more like Ableton haha.

1.) Monophonic and polyphonic Melodyne style pitch editing
2.) Consolidation of menus a bit (a bit less cluttered/redundant)
3.) Session view/clip recording
4.) Option to "Export Project to iOS", so projects can move both ways between iPad and Mac. (Already can do Garageband for iPad to Logic, it would be nice to go back to iPad as well)

1) Better quality sampled instruments, especially the grand pianos. The current ones are not great at all.

2) They need to spend the bucks to by license to use the real names of the amps and pedals in the guitar amp/effects models. Just call a Fender a Fender. Improve the quality there too.

3) Music XML needs to be sported

4) Apple needs to have the best pitch editor. With all the cash they have they could buy one.

5) Good support for the iPad. It should be usable as a general purpose control surface
 
i want :

* to be able to run 32 bit plugins in 64 bit mode with out the 32 bit bridge
(worst idea ever by the way)

* when i open a project file, for logic to not look through libraries of files to find whats in the session. Just to Know exactly where all the files already are.

* a full Uninstall option so incase i have to re install logic i don't have to look through my whole computer and delete little files all over the place.

* a full Feature to perfectly edit LIVE drums. Flex Time is ok, screws up cymbals sometimes while editing.

* Better Guitar and Bass amps. (Look Into Splawn amplification for some heavy distorted sounds )

* NO MORE LOGIC CRASHES!!!

Thanks :)
 
Arranger functions in Mainstage

Chord recognition and styles like Yamaha arranger keyboards.
 
Like a lot of others have been saying:

Ipad integration would be nifty
Updated exs24
More Fluid GUI
Definitely a fade tool for multiple selected tracks
Overhaul on pitch correction

Just minor things for me...for now. (until they fix the swarm of bugs in 9)
 
I agree with most of the points some people wrote above.

For myself, I'd love to see a new Logic. But I also have to say that I have almost NO Logic crashes and it's just great working with it.. I think the last crash I experienced like 5 Months ago, I can't tell but I'm working with Logic everyday. 32bit Bridge crashes sometimes but it can be relaunched immediately.

I don't know why the hell they made a 32bit Bridge "empty window" which you actually have to click inside to open the actual plugin. This is pissing me off about the current 32bit Bridge.

I'd like to see a better organisation of 3rd party plugins. Not sorted by manufacturer.

I wouldn't be surprised if the new Logic would look like Garageband which I don't have a problem with as long there are all Settings and functions remained.

I hope they learned this from the FCP X release. The FCPX will be a great software in future, too. I'm sure of that, but 1.0 Version is a BIG - F A I L.

I'm curious.
 
logic mixer overhaule

i think it would be cool if one could chose different kind of mixers,yust like the virtual guitaramps... like a neve,audient or an ssl complete (ofcourse) with the emulated sound
 
me personally id like to see the clip gain so you can cut a loud vocal and lower the level of that independently instead of the whole track and maybe the heat plugin that protools got its a great plugin i run pro tools and logic but i think logic is way BETTER but some new features would help it out a hell of a lot more :)
