It also has lots of mixing features such as busses, aux tracks, track grouping, etc. If you are just mixing audio tracks then GarageBand is probably enough unless you want to be able to stretch, tune and warp the audio.įor the price of a decent limiter, Logic also adds a lot of tools for mixing and mastering. If you are creating, logic gives you much much more. Add in CamelPhat and camelspaxe, two of my favourite plug ins, and the camel stuff did cost more than Logic. Alchemy is fantastic and cost pretty much the same as the whole of Logic before Apple bought camel audio. Apple have been updating many but some, like the Exs24 sampler still look very 1999. Some are very old, not that that matters, but the Ui on a lot of them is archaic. You get lots of plug ins, synths and a sampler. There are lots of features for mucking with midi, converting and mangling all sorts of stuff
So you can steal the feel of a loop.įor midi you get a step editor, event list, score and transform as well as the piano roll. You can then do things like make a groove template based on this region and quantise other midi parts with the same timing.
You can also take drum loop, say, and with one command turn it into a sampler track with one hit per key via the transient markers and logic automatically generates the midi file to play it back seamlessly. You can even mute individual midi notesįor audio you have similar non destructive parameter per region and can stretxh, warp, tune etc the audio. You can mute, quantise, transpose, delay, all sort of stuff each midi region independently. In Logic, every region or even note has its own parameters which are non destructive. Logic is an order of magnitude more powerful than GarageBand.įor a start it is more object orientated than GarageBand.
#Garageband vs logic sound quality pro
I've tried Auria and Cubasis, and find them just as frustrating.įor those of you who have moved from (Mac) GB to Logic, what was the essential feature(s) that made you upgrade? For those who use GB on the Mac and are happy with it, why didn't you upgrade? Also, how does Logic Pro X run on old Macs? My main gripe is the flaky connectivity between iOS music apps. My process tends to be creating parts of songs in a mix of different apps and hardware, recording the results, arranging, and perhaps re-recording some parts direct into iOS GB. I will also keep using all my amazing iOS music apps. For recording and arranging it will work fine. My solution is to use my old 2010 iMac, which has a brand new SSD and is still going strong. In addition, the limit on recording its output, and on copying audio tracks to use elsewhere is driving me nuts. It stops seeing USB inputs, and it stops playback seemingly at random. I love GarageBand on iOS, but it frustrates me more and more. Often, all I want to do is record external audio, and do simple arrangements.
