I don't think Soooo

don't think so.. first of all before apple bought emagic, emagic had been steadily losing customers, mostly to Sonar and DP, but also to nuendo and those that anticipated CubSx. but mostly from Sonar. Logic has no flow, and has lost the popularity it gained through its nerdy appeal. it got popular back in the day because of all the nerdy electronic music type celebrities who made it popular, in every magazine they always said i write my tracks in logic and then dump them into protools bla bla blah.
but see protools is losing steam also, people are wising up and learning that you don't have to use something that looks so complicated like logic to be cool, or considered a true electronic recording artist. It's main draw
was midi, but everybody knows now that the midi protocol sucks, and is outdated and useless, that's why programs like Abletons Live, and Acid, and recycle have been increasingly popular, and programs like Sonar, Sx, and Dp have very strong audio syncing capabilities. programs like Live really are the future, no doubt about it.

As usual APPLE is on the lateshow, buying emagic won't do anything but blow smoke up the butts of those glossy eyed mac users who pay more attention to the name on the box than the value inside. Pc users have long since gotten over that, the benifits of an open technological society compared to a closed one, which is the apple/jobs way of doing things.
just look at the performance test for an example.
technology, both hardware and software is among the cheapest of commodities in existence today, there is no reason for Apple to have to make money off the backs of their customers by charging so much, that old saying "you get what you pay for" does not apply to technology. electronic parts are super cheap as is the labor.

to be succesful you have to be willing to grow and evolve, so Apples got logic now, big deal logic was on it's way out. Logic would never have travelled away from its midi roots or complicated structure hence the name"logic", but that is not the direction that the young innovative budding
creative artist are going in. 10 years ago things would have been different

Post by ethereon » Wed Aug 28, 2002 9:37 pm

i don't understand...

and you know what...


steinberg bought the emagic's Logic Audio engine....


those who are not in the know should do more research. software and platform bashing is silly. there are some wicked producers that are using the new Cubase SX... (yes, it has the logic audio engine)...

oh...

and as for this guy...
there's always some racist dickhead on a website somewhere. you don't want to be the first one here.
so jus ccccccccchhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
sure. np.

but i'm not racist. dont' you know a joke when you see one? even my asian friends would laugh at that.

Hello livers!

very soon OSX will be perfect (now it is only the best) and all livemagic
users will be in heaven.

AND YES, IT IS ALL ABOUT MAKING MUSIC-THATS WHAT MAC IS FOR!!!

The new world will be divided to high and low divisions;

1-The ones who have the fruit.

2-The ones who have the office.

Keep on posting here, your vote is important. :arrow:

I guess you don't understand

Cubsx may have logics engine, but that is not the point, the point is it doesn't have it's interface or philosophy. which is the reason logic is losing
users. you could adapt a porshe engine to run inside a minivan, and over charge for it, but no one would buy it. minivans don't feel, handle, or drive
like porshes.
maybe this concept is lost on the less organic of us.

and to the gentleman who made the racist "Joke" some things aren't funny
and maybe somebody is laughing at your friends while watching them laugh at themselves.

Sorry,maybe I misunderstood something,heavn´t read the messages at all.

Hey guys,whatever you do...you should stop to take those drugs.

GIRLIES,

i dunno, but why does it seem to me, that every mac-user here on this forum thinks he belongs to some elite. you guys really think, just cuz you've got macs, your MUSIC (the thing we're here for) is better than the music from some WIN-machine?
c'mon get a life......
i think it's pretty damn stupid to judge someone's output by the sys he/she's runnin'.

i really really thought this site's about some crazy freaked-out high performance audio-app, not about:

"I've got a MAC, and You DON'T, nananananana"

maybe y'all should close your EYES and open your EARS

i somehow feel sorry for the ableton having to host this pathetic cheap platform-battle-forum.
