Apple today released a pair of updates for its Logic audio workstation software packages, fixing a number of bugs and delivering improved compatibility with the Apogee Duet 2 audio interface device. Logic Pro 9.1.5 (192.55 MB) and Logic Express 9.1.5 (138.84 MB) each require Mac OS X 10.5.8 or later.
This update improves overall stability and addresses some minor issues including the following:
- All instrument and effect plug-ins that use LFO's synced to the beat now behave correctly.
- The Toggle Zoom key command now returns to previous zoom level as expected.
- Improved compatibility with Apogee's Duet 2.
Full details on the over a dozen changes included in the updates are available in the release notes.

(View all)Where IS logic X. It's way overdue. FCX was given previews but the audio folk are neglected.
If it is bad, i'll jump to another DAW. I want to make the decision. Does this update mean we won't see logic X for a while, or possibly there won't even be a logic x?
I wish apple would just say it's coming next month during ios5 launch.
Neglected? How do you work this out? Logic Studio is it's current form is an amazing collection of software.
If FCPX is any indication...it's doomed...
seriously, expect about half of what your previous experience was unfortunately :apple::apple:
for example, copying between sessions open at the same time will CRASH, the folders or regions will not copy the audio inside in sync, saving then alters the files when re opening, list goes on
been working with Logic for 15 years, since v2, this is a mess, apple is about to sabotage this app like it did FCP Studio where instead of boosting the speed up for FCP Studio they got themselves a new iMovie promising new young naive customers support for 3rd party plugs etc like the same way they did with v1 which brought about those functions and features later in the decade
Apple is about to grab it savings tighter then it ever did which means its downhill from here guys

That might sound funny but I'd bet it will be true. The current GarageBand is pretty close to Logic Express in functionality already. Naturally, Logic gives you more input and output options. But beyond that, The only real difference is that GB is more colorful and "bubbly" compared to the grey boxy look of Logic.
but Apple has so many shills your post will probably be hypocritically ignored, and no one trusts a hypocrite, worthless trash out there will sell their mothers for a ipad
UI might be improved, but not by much. Apple have pretty much neglected Logic for a few years now, so I wont expect much.
I can't say about Express, but the difference between the full version of Logic and GB is absolutely vast, it's night and day.
The only difference between Express and Pro are missing AU's, helper programs like MainStage and Compressor, surround mixing, included Jam Packs, and TDM capability. The program itself is exactly the same.
Yeah certainly looking forward to Logic X....the cloud angle interests me, working on collaborative projects from different locations...also wondering whether we'll be able to strum and beat virtual instruments on our magic mice and trackpads like Garageband iPad?
Final Cut X is a work in progress, just needs a couple of added utilities to keep the whining 'pros' at bay...I'm glad they've filleted out all the leftover Macromedia tabbed window, semi-hidden function ******** which Adobe have failed to excise from Dreamweaver...i think overall Apple have actually got FCP X right overall...they just released it a tad undercooked...
