Unleashing the Next Wave
Logic Pro 7 features new instruments and effects, state-of-the-art
loop composition tools as well as optimizations for the PowerPC
G5 processor and Mac OS X, forming a highly productive system
that will change the way you compose, record, edit and mix music
in any studio environment. The latest version provides near
unlimited processing resources through the simple addition of
Macintosh computers.
Tap Into Greater Power
The new distributed audio processing feature in Logic Pro 7
offers a plug-and-play solution that provides the ability to
tap networked computers for more DSP processing power. Simply
add one or more Macintosh systems via Ethernet to your Logic
Pro 7 system. The result is an audio and music production system
with processing power that was previously unimaginable —
up to 128 stereo streams.
Sculpture and UltraBeat
Dynamic Creation
Innovative software instruments solidify the program’s
outstanding sound generation capabilities — in the studio
and on stage. These new options expand the already comprehensive
array of instruments available, broadening the sonic potential
of your Macintosh. Simulate any sound with breathtakingly natural
timbre in Sculpture, a component modeling synthesizer. Create
hypnotic rhythms using Ultrabeat, a beatbox with 25 voices and
virtually unlimited parameter adjustment. Low-latency MIDI processing
provides control over external sound devices, software instruments
and effects.
Infinite Loops
Apple Loops browsing and editing enable you to time stretch
and pitch shift audio files in real time. Apple Loops let you
work more efficiently and provide better workflow than conventional
file formats. When you insert Apple Loops in software instrument
format onto a software instrument track, Logic imports them
as MIDI sequences with the originating instrument and effect
settings intact. This allows you to change pitch, instrumentation
or effects — something you could only dream of with standard
audio loops technology. Logic also uses this functionality when
you import GarageBand compositions, preserving every detail
as you migrate the sessions for editing and producing in a truly
professional environment.
Stellar Performance
Logic Pro 7 turns the Macintosh into a digital audio workstation
that meets the highest demands for audio quality. It supports
audio at 16- and 24-bit resolution and sample rates of up to
192kHz for both audio recording and playback of internal software
instruments. Logic Pro 7 offers nine new effect plug-ins, including
Guitar Amp Pro, for amp modeling. 32-bit floating-point mathematics
provides enormous headroom for internal processing, making it
nearly impossible to overload the signal — even during
mixdown to 16-bit audio for CD release. In other words, Logic
Pro 7 delivers excellence.
