Logic Pro X, launched in July, represented the first major update to the software since 2009. Logic Pro X introduced "Drummer" a customizable virtual session player that automatically plays along to recorded tracks. Drummer made its way to Apple's consumer-level GarageBand in yesterday's launch, with one drummer included free of charge and a set of 14 additional drummers with various styles available for $4.99 as an in-app purchase.

Logic Pro X is available for $199.99 in the Mac App Store. [Direct Link]

I'm not sure if this is meant as an insult to Logic Pro, or a compliment for GarageBand. :D

My $0.02: of all the music programs I've used, LP is undoubtably the best for MIDI & VSTs (AKA Audio Units). Pro Tools is the one to go for if you're mainly doing audio editing. And Cubase is the one to go to if you want a program that keeps crashing. ;) :apple:

Neither really, they are both excellent apps just aimed at different ends of the market.

Not with the same interface though

It might be more similar now but there have always been more similarities than differences
