After the release of the new version of Logic Studio last month, Apple has now released Logic Express 9, a pro-sumer music creation, editing and recording software.
Logic Express is billed as the next level up for musicians who want to take things beyond GarageBand and GarageBand files are fully compatible with Logic Express 9. Included in this new version is Flex Time, a new collection of features that lets musicians manipulate timing and tempo quickly and creatively. Other new features include:
- Selective Track Import: Allows transfer of setups and track content between projects by simply selecting the individual components to import on a track-by-track basis.
- Drum Replacer: Replace or double less-than-perfect drum tracks with triggered samples in a few clicks.
- Convert to Sampler Track: Turn an audio region into a sampler instrument with a MIDI track to trigger it. That part then can be modified and resequenced.
- Notation and chord grids: Create guitar tablature or detailed scores using a library of more than 4000 chord grids and new ornaments for hammer-ons, bends, and more.
Also included is Guitar Gear, an instant, massive collection of amps, stompboxes, software instruments, and sounds. Amp Designer lets musicians mix and match 25 amps, 25 speaker cabinets, and 3 mics that can be positioned freely around the speaker cone. There’s also Apogee GiO support, a new USB audio interface and control device that allows hands-free operation of the Pedalboard and works with Logic Pro 9 and MainStage 2 right out of the box.
Logic Express 9 is available at the online Apple Store Philippines for ₱10,990. For those upgrading from Logic Express 6, 7, or 8 or Logic Audio 5 or 6, the cost will only be ₱5,490.
