Looking to ditch Logic and Apple. Help!

[SneakyBeats]

what type of sampling solution do you use?

This works great with Reaper https://www.tx16wx.com/

Reaper + VST or Reaper + AU?

If you're serious about ditching Logic, then it's best to stick to VST, that way you can move to a PC easier. Not gonna say it's flawless, but I mainly use VST these days besides a few plug ins where the AU version is likely more stable on OS X.

Honestly, if you don't own Kontakt, it's pretty much a no brainer to get it. The amount of professionally sampled libraries available for it is far greater than all other libraries combined. There's a simple sampler in Reaper for one off things.

Your issues are not going to be solved by a new PC and a different DAW, not in the long run.

Let him find the hard way, there's price to pay for being stubborn.

Does any of you speak from personal experience? Because, as an owner of both Mac and Windows systems, I can assure you that YES, his specific problems will be solved with a new PC. A different DAW is a consequence of the option, since Logic isn't available in Windows (thanks to Apple "vision").

But you seem to be Apple fanboy, so your statement isn't to be taken seriously, is it?

Finally, a statement we both agree on Good advices

Yes, especially machinesworking.

Disagree, his specific problem will persist on any system and any DAW.

But you seem to be Apple fanboy, so your statement isn't to be taken seriously, is it?

Of course not, only yours, because you are all about objectivity and respect, also only one that used both macOS and Windows and more than one DAW...

OK then. Do you "actually" have or ever had a Windows system running a DAW? Which system? Which DAW?

But you seem to be Apple fanboy, so your statement isn't to be taken seriously, is it?

I am objective, since I know Apple for a long time (I happened to be an Apple defender, back in the day) and if I attack them now is because I have been experiencing in person their shitty behavior, more than once. And, as I wrote, I have BOTH system, and yes, I have several DAWs running (not Logic Pro anymore, I abandoned it when they changed to Logic Pro X and asked users to buy it AGAIN at full price). But I have Mainstage, basically to try and keep current with their virtual instruments.

And how did I disrespected you? Because I called you a fanboy? If you don't want to be called that, don't act like that.

Suppose I should act like you, go around talking rubbish and feeling superior to anyone that disagrees with me, get over yourself.

By "rubbish" you mean calling Apple "shitty"?

And no, I don't feel superior to anyone. I am humble enough to agree with others I disagreed before, when I think they are right (see my post about what machinesworking advises). I just say what I think, and I say it LOUD AND CLEAR.

No need for a 10000 $ mac pro.
I purchased a imac 2020 27 inch I7 3.8 ghz 8 cores for 2500 $
It can run full Logic projet with more than 50 plugins and CPU barelly goes above 10 % !

I am objective

You are the least objective person in this thread.

[pdxindy]

I am humble

Most of your posts reek of arrogance. You don't know yourself at all.

[fmr]

And you say this because you have an "objectivemeter"?

Both posts just reflect your opinion. I respect your right to an opinion, but I don't value it. You weren't even asked about, so you are in no position to talk about arrogance. IMO, of course

[Proteinshake]

No need for a 10000 $ mac pro.

But it feels so good hugging it.

By "rubbish" you mean calling Apple "shitty"?

No, "upcoming news", predictions, opinions and "facts" you presented so far in this thread.

And no, I don't feel superior to anyone.

You do actually, that's why you can't accept that someone else knows something as much as you do or even more, that someone else might actually have more insight, experience and knowledge, so instead of giving respect and offering some arguments, you are resorting to name calling, bold claims and all around mockery, trying to bring whole conversation on that lame level.

I am humble enough to agree with others I disagreed before, when I think they are right (see my post about what machinesworking advises).

You aren't humble, period. Machinesworking proved you wrong on most of your claims, you never had decency to actually give him props for it, he's actually objective and humble guy, it's not hard to find million things he's right about, kudos for finding actually one.

I proved you wrong too, after all your almighty mockign attmept to dismiss my argument, than you avoided whole thign, than found next one to be all almighty and dismissive about.

Cognitive dissonance kinda explain this whole sharade, there's probably more text book things that could apply to your behavior in this thread and this board in general, but will leave that to your shrink.

Have a great one.

[fmr]

Have a great one.

Yeah, you too

As I wrote above, that's your opinion. I respect your right to an opinion, but I don't value it.

It's no use to keep talking. This is a deaf conversation, and I will not contribute anymore to derail the thread.
