    pro tools is simply a daw. is pro tools better, yes id say so, but hey don't look at me all weird! most people only use logic for the instrument plug in's and thats it. nobody mixes or does editing on logic because it's limited in feature that only pro tools offers!.from what i know the protocol is to always dump all your recorded virtual instruments into pro tools fro mixing. so which is better? I'd say pro tools for mixing and editing but besides that it's just a glorified garage band.
    p.s i do own logic but in 2 years of having it i cant count how many times ive used it (4 times)

    My ears are ringing from blast of white noise from Logic 9

    NEVER had this happen in Logic 8 (or any other software for that matter) on same hardware.. Not only can you not OPEN Logic 9 by clicking on a logic 9 file, SAVE in Logic 9 without it putting audio out of sync, now I discover you cannot RECORD for more than a few minutes without getting a blast of white noise. Seriously, my ears are still ringing 8 hours later from this noise. If they are still ringing Monday I am going to the hearing specialist and Apple WILL be paying the bill. I pray no serious damage has been done and that I will still be able to do mastering work. If I monitor through Logic, even at 128 the monitored audio will occasionally slip out of sync and there will be like a 2 second delay in the monitored audio, then eventually a deafening blast of white noise. To release software in this untested state is totally negligent, irresponsible and downright dangerous. Disgraceful.
    As a longtime Apple owner (since 1986), I have to say I'm disappointed with the way things are going these days. The company seems less responsive when it comes to fixing minor glitches as well as serious problems. I spent $200+ to upgrade to Logic 9 and Snow Leopard. Several months have now passed, and that combo still doesn't work for me. I'm stuck with using Logic 8. In fact, I tried to reinstall Tiger to regain some stability, but it won't let me go backwards without running a clean install. I wish someone at Apple would take notice and fix these issues.

    Not a bad product, just can't compare to Pro-Tools 8.

    Un- intuitive

    Horrible work flow if you're working with real audio, un-intuitive design. If you're working with loops it's average but get into any editing and the layout is just plain stupid.
    Great soft synths and amp emulators but extremely poor layout.
    Seems to me the people writing the software need spend some time recording a live band and being creative instead of programing. Logic kills the creative process.

    What have you been smoking/ Logic is a great program, I agree. But to even put it in the same league as Pro Tools 8; Come on... be serious.
