I have been saving up for years to buy Logic, and I am finally able to do so. As I was getting ready to buy it, however, I noticed the advertisements for "AI assisted tools." Now, of course I understand that Logic has always used AI assisted tools like the drum tracks, but I feel like that definition has changed a lot the past few years and it makes me wary when a company like Apple advertises it. There is a big difference between "drum tracks that are always the same to choose from and can be slightly tweaked" (which, I never like to use in my songwriting anyway because even that feels a bit wrong to me personally) and "Logic Pro, write me a chord sequence." I am vehemently against the use of generative AI, especially in music, and I don't want to have to work around an "imagine ✨" button.

How bad is the amount of generative AI assistance in Logic Pro, do you think it will continue to get worse, and is it still worth it to get the DAW in my case? I don't want to waste my money on something that is going to turn to shit a few years later, as generative AI seems to make things do so often. Thanks.

I have splice, but I do a lot of industrial / break stuff, so I'm ideally looking for crunchy drum presets. I can't seem to find that many on splice, so I end up finding samples and creating drum machines, but that takes a lot of time and tweaking.

Does anyone who produces similar stuff have any recs on drum presets or kits?

I’m constantly getting ads on new plugins and they’re all so expensive. I made a video showcasing that you can make a song only using stock Logic plugins, virtual instruments and samples.

I’d love to know what you think are some underrated stock plugins!

My logic pro has this weird issue in the legacy tab where it only shows some of the jam packs separate from each other but Voices and World Music are put with the GarageBand library is there a fix for that?

Hey yall,

For the life of me, I can’t figure out how to record a track, switch to a different track and record, and have those 4 or so bars loop like she does in this video. Is Live Loops the answer? Thanks!

I’ve been using my Apollo Twin X with my MacBook Pro M1 and Logic Pro for years without any problems.

Recently, I connected a newer, larger Apollo to the same MacBook. That Apollo worked, and other audio interfaces also work. However, since then, I haven’t been able to get my original Apollo Twin X to send audio into Logic Pro.

The Twin X receives my microphone signal in UAD Console, but Logic Pro shows no input signal when Universal Audio Thunderbolt is selected as the input device. Logic works when I select the MacBook’s built-in microphone.

I’ve checked the audio settings and microphone permissions. UA Connect now shows an installation error for both UAD DSP Plug-Ins & Drivers and UAD Console, with a “Repair” button that does nothing when clicked.

**Has anyone experienced this after switching between Apollo interfaces? How can I get my original Apollo Twin X working with Logic Pro again?
