The big question is do you find yourself not liking mixing down in Live?
Some people really gravitate towards Live's straightforward ideas on this
and others are more comfortable with the more traditional complex DAW approach.
If you're thinking this because it's talked about a lot on the internet etc.
then maybe you need to really use Live as an environment first. if you wish you had more control over the varieties of automation types in terms of controllers like Mackie Control etc.
then maybe Logic, Studio One, or DP8 is the way to go. From what I can tell the advantages are Studio One offers a final mastering stage built in, Logic offers price and light CPU, and DP8 offers multiple mixes and multiple edited song lengths etc. in the same open project.
Beware, Logic 9 is now officially the oldest DAW, and the upgrade path to Logic X will be that you get to buy Logic again IE $200. With that said most upgrades are around $200 anyway.
Point is you buy Logic 9 now and Logic X will be announced and ready for purchase a week later.
