"Using Logic Pro X to create music in a professional setting"
What do you like best about Logic Pro X?

The layout is the the best aspect for sure. When I switched over to the software I was surprised by how easy it was to understand for a beginner and I caught on very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Logic Pro X?

I do wish there was an easier way to select the audio inputs and outputs for tracks without having to go into the settings of the program. Perhaps a toolbox or a shortcut on the mixer would make this more convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Logic Pro X is for the Pros"
What do you like best about Logic Pro X?

Logic Pro X allows users to easily edit audio recordings and record audio from scratch, as well as create MIDI tracks. It is much more user friendly than most digital audio workstations, and does not have as much of a learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Logic Pro X?

The MIDI samples in Logic Pro X are not of the best quality and most do not sound very realistic. However, many digital audio workstations do not come with any MIDI samples and require an outside sample library. It is recommended that users purchase a higher quality third party sample library if they will be using MIDI frequently, but for those who will not use it much, this should not be necessary.

"Versatile, easy to use software "
What do you like best about Logic Pro X?

Logic Pro sports a clean, attractive, and highly organized interface. The software is intuitive, and things generally behave in the manner a musician might expect. Drag and drop makes things easy, your media keeps itself organized with almost no effort, and each update adds truly helpful and useful features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Logic Pro X?

Sometimes the software updates change things unnecessarily - though not nearly to the level some other projects do Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easily the most intuitive DAW"
What do you like best about Logic Pro X?

Logic, like most Apple software, is extremely intuitive. You’ll spend much more time creating and much less time looking up tutorials or reading the manual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Logic Pro X?

There are occasionally some pretty bad bugs. The worst of these is an extremely loud burst of white noise that lasts less than a second. This has happened at least 2 times while mixing in the last few years, and it seems to happen when you overload the disk or CPU. Generally this isn’t a problem, but it’s something to know about.

"An Excellent DAW with Flexible Workflows for a Variety of Genres"
What do you like best about Logic Pro X?

I love the versatility of Logic Pro X! I think it is well balanced when it comes to composing music "in the box" as well as recording. VSTs are easily to integrate and, in my opinion, the UI is very intuitive! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Logic Pro X?

Honestly, there's not a lot I dislike about Logic Pro X. Sometimes the use of Flex Time can get a little finicky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Logic Pro X actually makes sense!"
What do you like best about Logic Pro X?

Where should I start? There are so many wonderful aspects to Logic Pro X! We use MIDI effect plug-ins for the keyboard instruments we use to record commercials at work! I like how Logic Pro X lets me work with plug-in settings, stored within the project file. They are automatically recalled the next time the project is opened! I like how I can work with channel strip settings, files specific to each channel strip types. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Logic Pro X?

There's not much to dislike, although I actually dislike the limited distribution of Logic Pro X. Since macOS can only be run on Apple hardware, we cannot use Logic Pro X on our more advanced PCs. This means that we have to settle for less power, meaning we have to use busses to route our music channels, rather than copying and pasting tracks. And even so, our CPUs clock-out, which stinks, because we have advanced hardware that we aren't allowed to use with this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Everything you need in a DAW"
What do you like best about Logic Pro X?

I'm a mac user, always have been, so naturally this is what I started with back in the day (Logic 7). Easy to use once you "get it". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Logic Pro X?

There's definitely a learning curve to this software. Not the MOST intuitive but not bad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
