Got my copy of Logic Pro 7 today...this marks a new beginning.

The transition from a PC to a MAC is painless...as a matter of fact, it's been a pleasant experience so far! I would recommand anyone who is thinking of getter a new system to check out a MAC.

I know, I'm comparing Apple"s" to "oranges"! haha....

Logic Pro 7 looks and feels like a great host...AU plug-ins are working flawlessly...and unlike Cubase or Sonar, it comes with "professional" plug-ins right out of the box! Gotta love that "Sculpture" plug-in....

Ta ta for now...back to playing with Logic...

I ordered my dual G5 2GHz and Logic Pro 7 update today (been using 5.5.1 on PC for the last two years) and I am VERY exited to get it! Christmas will come early this year.

I'm holding onto my other PC though, don't want to miss out on some truly excellent freeware and shareware plugs like Anarchy Rhythms, Scuzzphut and the EVM synths...

Cheers,

Arne S.

Why don' you upgrade it to OS X?

If you have some old OS 9 SW or HW you still want to run (like me - Korg OASYS) get yourself an old B&W G3 and stick it in there. And you can upgrade the processor if needed.

I have a 733 that I upgraded to 933 a while ago. Nothing to sing about, CPU wise, but I can get work done on it, no prob....

Or you could set up the 733 as a Logic Node.

iMAC 1.8 G5...1G of ram.

BTW, I thought Adam ate a "fruit" from the tree...might be an apple...not sure.

Logic Pro 7 is great...loads much quicker than Cubase SX2...at least to me anyway.

P.S. If I have my way...I should be able to afford the dual G5 2.5 in about a year...and that 30" screen...*HHHMMMM*

Make sure to also get the 'apple care' package. Basically in the morning someone, a grandmom type, comes over and pats you on the head every time you manage to open a program, with the words 'that a boy!'.

Daaaamn, is that true?! And now you tell me, AFTER I passed on that deal?

Heck, after all these years on Winblows, I'm happy just to see some different crashes than those I'm already used to.

<smartass mode off>

Sorry about that. To prove I'm still a Win-guy (sic), I'll put up this link that is very anti-Mac, yet still amusing (perhaps even for Mac-folks):

I hope this will bring some enjoyment.

So you are saying the Sonitus plugins that come with Sonar are not "professional"? If so, i would contend that you are oh so very wrong. Must be a bummer that you get no delay compensation with those "pro" plugins in v.7.

Aside from that, I'm glad you're happy with your new setup.

I'm glad that you guys are happy for me. I guess everyone has their preference.

In reguard to the Sonar comment...I have to appologize...because I have never used Sonar before...so for me to make that comment, just out of character. But...I've been using Cubase for a long time...what kind of plug-ins and effects does it offer? Yes, I know, I'm "paying" for Logic's plug-ins...since there's a price difference between Logic and Cubase.

I still have the option of going back to a PC...still have the whole setup with me. So...if one day I'm tired of using a MAC...BTW, what other options are there?

I dont get it..why are you guys always making this fuzz about MAC..PC...PC...MAC..Both Systems have their highs and lows...
I Use both Systems producing music, cause there are a lot of good appz for PC that don't exist for the MAC and also vice versa. Most of my grafic or artwork i do on a mac..DVD production on a PC and 3D Animation on Both..Maya on PC Cinema4D on MAC...
I USe OSX Which i installed once over a year Ago and XP which i installed 4 times in one year...
