One interesting thought that crossed my mind was...
...what if Logic Pro for iPad would have been a $100-$150 purchase with no trial?
How many would have refunded the purchase at this point?
I probably would have kept it…even though I’m not using it now I wouldn’t have asked for a refund unless it didn’t do what it was advertised to do and I’d probably use it more down the line after I update my Macs OS and can update Logic to the latest version and be able to send projects from my MacBook to my IPad
I’m pretty sure that the ”whiners” about subscriptions would be the whiners also if Apple had a pricetag at 150$…
As you wrote earlier, we nerds in this forum may not represent the majority in the world subbing and using LP4i…
I would, because it isn't worth that price for the iPad version. At this moment it is just a very minor 'baby' version of the mature MacOS version. Not even worth the monthly/yearly subscription at this moment.
Interested in your definition of “very minor baby of the mature Mac Logic”?
Yeah, there’s a few omissions in the iPad version of Logic Pro, but, call it “very tiny baby” is to extremely exaggerate…
For a version 1.0 Apple has managed to fill Logic for iPad with lots and lots of features, and, on Mac you hav’nt got Sample Alchemy and BeatBreaker!
I’ve got Logic on my Mac also, so, it’s easy to compare…
True, but if you’re like most banks, you run 90% of your infrastructure on Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. Have you ever tried to assess the security risk of either of these platforms? Their answer to questions is a bit less dismissive, but for all intents and purposes it’s “we invite you to review the security policies and certifications at XXXXX.com/compliancepackage” and that’s it.
Also, while banks don’t run apps on Apple servers, they use lots of Macs, iPhones and iPads.
Third party security risk is my field, as you may have guessed.
Count me in for the yearly!! It's not perfect but it’s only the v1. Tbh..no iOS DAW was perfect in version 1
Very valuable advice. I’m in my 30s and actively trying to value my time as much as possible now. It definitely makes things easier.
I’m a big Cubasis fan as well. I used it last night for the first time since trying Logic Pro and it was so much more fun and usable for me personally.
Cubasis & Nonostudio wasn’t even perfect in version 2.0…
I actually agree here. There are a handful of things Logic can do that no other iOS DAW can. Even if others DAWs can do some of those things, none can do them all besides Logic. Just for me personally I haven’t had a need for those things, besides busses. That’s a great feature that I believe any DAW should properly have.
I’m subscribed for another month to keep testing it before I make my final decision on what I will do.
I commented this when the subscription model was first announced. So many people complained about it being a sub app and a lot of those same people also complained about the price of Pianoteq. Somethings you just can’t win on iOS 🤦🏻♂️
I was and then wasn’t and then was and then wasn’t and now yes. Cause that’s how I roll
I would have bought it for anything up to $200, and it would have stayed unused in my iPad until they fixed the bugs that make my workflow unusable. But Apple would have made $200 off me, eventually the bugs would be fixed, and I would eventually use it as my main DAW. Instead, Apple is getting no money from me, and I’m moving in with my life. I’m not going to pay $4.99 every time I want test to see if they have fixed the bugs, I’m just going to stick with the other DAWs that work.
I probably would've gotten a refund right away after becoming frustrated with it. However, with the 5 quid monthly sub with the first month free and actually taking time to dig in, I'm probably sticking with it for the long run. Easy to transfer projects via Dropbox and iCloud to other people for collab purposes. Easy to master in it. Easy to record vocals in it and use Bleass Voices. Logic Pro still has its uses for me, although for sheer creativity, I just find LP4i not as easy to use as NS2 and Gadget.
Yes!
It needs a few touches…most of you have mentioned the lacking items and hangs.
But…
This is Logic Pro as a groovebox that is light and portable runs on a battery for hours…sits comfortably with me anywhere. It’s entirely more fun than the actual LPX on Mac, and any of the current mobile Daws on iPad to me. (gadget is not really a daw).
If reason was to make a move like this and include it in the reason plus subscription…I’d probably subscribe to that again as well. The amount of music I am making while fumbling around on it is astounding! Lots of great stuff…it’s going to definitely stay with me. Since I won’t be moving my newer I7 to the shitty new Apple OS that kills all the great plug ins, I think Logic on iPadOS is maybe changing everything for me as we speak.
If this is only going up from here wow!
Even if just being used for recording and mixing portably it’s fantastic - round trip automation and settings with all Logic FX / Fabfilter / WOOTT - that’s already amazing. Then all sounds and instruments etc… I mean it has bounce in place / freeze / disable tracks and all of the different time stretching algorithms- drag and drop files to arrange or DMD / Sampler. I never thought iPad would be this good to be honest. And I really hoped NS2 and BM3 would evolve more cause those are also great.
Logic 6 cost 1k when Apple first released - and that was a steal compared to how much a pro tools HD3 accel system cost to get large track counts. I was blown away back then by how cheap it seemed in comparison when I was a teenager lol. $5 a month is a no brainer
As much as I wanna demo it, I'm still on too low an OS version and an iPad eighth gen which doesn't seem like it can handle logic super well.
I'm also put off by the sub, but not that much. As much as I want the sounds, plugins, and cross compatibilty, I haven't found a real compelling reason to step out of my Cubasis/Gadget workflow. I've kinda just doubled down on learning what I have and producing as much as I can within those limitations.
Yeah I’m still a C3/Zenbeats guy but some of the Logic features are very compelling. I’m subbing another month to keep diving in but I’m not entirely sold either.
The drum synth and DMD are both great! I still haven’t decided if it’s worth it for me but I’m surprised by how much I love the drum synth. Making weird pads and sounds from the drum presets is so much from.
I'm sure you're a pro, but your example about banks simply accepting a vendor casually telling them to sod off when they ask security or bug related questions is fanciful at best - especially when the vendor is a relative underdog in the industry. But I mean, you're a pro, you do know that.
Tell us more in detail about the bugs thats makes your workflow unusable?
As I can see it, nothing is stopping us from using Logic Pro for iPad as an advanced mobile DAW - although there are some omissions…
Tell us more please…
Nothing changed with my decision so far, but reading this thread became more entertaining than the decision itself. 😂
A little like the fight between the people that loves Windows and the Apple fans worship Mac…
I don’t blame anyone, I'm a passionate and opinionated person too, deliberately restraining myself from the debate. On the whole picture I'm positioned below all those brave people here.
Based on the title, the goal of this thread seems to be to simply ask people about their decision regarding Logic iPad.
But you seem to mistake it for a different thread where, if people state a position that doesn't match yours, you need to open up a debate with them and help them change their mind. I might be wrong, obviously, but I don't think this is that thread. 🙂
A simple Yes or No would be more than enough as an answer for any post in this thread
No need for why yes or why no followups as that was not the question.
There is simply no 'right' or 'wrong' answer here, it's as simple as that...
What I was interested in was if he’s discovered bugs that I haven’t run into, so, I was just curious…
And, threads that’s going off-topic is really common on this forum - my apologies…
None needed, you're right, threads going off topic is the rule not the exception 🙂
In that case, yes...
