for those who rewire logic into DP or logic, what benefits do you see?
I'm assuming you mean "people who rewire LIVE into DP or Logic" right?
1) I am still on Live 5.1.2, and I find the sound quality a little lacking compared to DP. Don't know why, but there is more depth to a project when I mix in DP, so I rewire individual tracks into DP and then further mix, master, render using DP. Perhaps it's because I have been working with DP for about 5 years and Live for only about 2.5 years. Also, it's quite possible that with an upgrade to Live 7, I might do most production work entirely within Live. But when it comes to recording musicians, bands, etc. for more straight ahead studio work I will definitely use DP or whatever equivalent software is available.
2) I like BOTH Live's session view and DP's sequence view for different reasons. Live is great to come up with new ideas, jam and try new things with relative ease, and I also use it exclusively for live performances. But when it comes to production, I just like the feel of a horizontal sequencer, and DP is what I learned on, so that's basically it.
