Firstly, it’s available for both Mac and PC – double-ish the market potential, right off the bat.
IS GARAGEBAND FREE FOR MAC PRO
Pro tools have a little more variety on offer in terms of purchase options. There ends the discussion of Logic Pro’s pricing options. I’m sure I’ll return to that point a little later. You may have noticed that I only mentioned the Mac App Store? Yeah, Logic Pro isn’t available for Windows or Linux or anything. There doesn’t seem to be any discounts for education or anything, another unusual aspect for commercial, high-end DAWs. There were no discounts for individuals upgrading from the previous version, which is unusual in DAW version progression and pricing. Logic Pro X is available for around $199 as an app from the Mac App Store. So that’s kind of cool, I guess? Pricing options Logic Pro One of its interesting claims to fame is that Ricky Martin’s Livin’ La Vida Loca was the first number one single to have been entirely recorded, edited, and mixed in Pro Tools. That first Pro Tools cost a whopping $6,000! It’s hailed as the first digital multitrack recording software, which makes it funny to think that something that originally cost so much led to something you can now get online for free! It became Sound Tools in 1989, and was renamed Pro Tools in 1991. The following year – 1985 – they were offering downloadable features for the software.
Pro Tool first appeared as Sound Designer, created by two Berkeley graduates in 1984. Pro Tools is celebrating its 30th birthday this year, so happy birthday to you! It’s come a long way from its starts a sequencer for Atari. Logic Pro is now in its tenth edition, which they’ve called Logic Pro X, because Xs are cool. This, of course, annoyed the Windows users: it’s never been established how much business was lost over the matter, but sales of the Mac version have continued to increase.
However, in 2002, Apple announced that they had bought the software, and starting with Logic 6, it would only be available on Mac OS. The first five versions of Logic were available on both Mac and Windows. It was developed by a company called C-Lab, who later became Emagic. The first version of Logic Pro was called Notator Logic, and it was released all the way back in 1993. So, let’s start looking at these two products in a bit more detail.
