Beyond that it has some amazing Arrange Page advantages over the others, and since 95% of the time you're in the Arrange page in Logic it feels liberating. Logic is a massive learning curve, some things are better in Logic, but at first you won't see that because the first thing that will strike you is how crappy the audio routing is in Logic, it's close to the worst in this regard. Well Logic is a great host too, but you could simply have used rewire with Live, or used Soundflower and AIC to route audio and MIDI between Mainstage and Live.

But I really need something that sounds like real instruments and high quality so I will gradually work Logic Pro into my workflow. I am not a trigger pad type of musician, so the whole DJ trigger pad type of thing is not why I was into Ableton. The sound quality is so different, I have to do it. I decided to spring for Logic Pro after all. I cannot make Mainstage work as a plugin type of thing. Mainstage for Live and DP users might be a little hit for Apple. Still even with having to use AIC and Soundflower to get Sculpture into Live with Live hosting VSTs etc. Wish Apple would let Mainstage act as a AU plug in host in Live like Kore did. When you Rewire Mainstage into Live it's always the rewire master so Live loses the ability to host VSTs and AUs, just making sure this is the case. Logic instruments: Here's a small list, Sculpture, Ultrabeat, ES2, EVB3, EXS24mkII < - this one is a super fast sampler. Machinesworking wrote:Cool, exactly the kind of person I was hoping would buy Mainstage, no copy of Logic in sight! I only know the difference in sound is so stark and overwhelming to me, a user of Ableton for 3 years and never even touching Logic, that I have to make a change. Perhaps that was Apples intent by making Mainstage not work as a VST, I don't know. I will continue to use Ableton because I like the workflow but I am going to ease my way over to Logic Pro.

So therefore I will simply have to buy Logic Pro. I have tried multiple routing and it does not work well. The problem is that Mainstage is really incompatible with Ableton as a plugin type of thing. But here the difference is so stark that I really don't need any more data. If they were even close, I would agree with you such as the 'summing engine' arguments and stuff. The Apple piano simply sounds like a real piano. I played some drums on the Ultrabeat and also the drum rack. I just played the Ableton piano back to back with the Apple piano and bass, etc. No objective audio quality comparison other than subjective apple's shit hype? I'm already fed up with that type of information which have been resulted in being recognized as hypes for a decade.

And seamless Patch switching lets you hold a chord in one sound while moving to a new Patch.OpenLabs sells with a computer for 2000$, same for Muse Receptor. With Multimapping, you can map multiple parameters to a single control, so you can smoothly manipulate your sound without trying to turn several knobs at once. Start walking a bass line up the keyboard, and the split point moves up so the bass doesn’t suddenly become some other sound when you get into the higher notes. It intelligently moves the split point on a split keyboard Patch to respond to what you’re playing. For starters, there’s the Floating Split Point.
