So i decided to install a "trial" of Logic Audio 8 on my mac (which isnt really that great a computer being an old 2ghz PPC model) and to be honest im really blown away, although i cant run a huge huge amount of

i have been using mac and logic all along mate for years and got logic 8 now... its the best man..the sound engine rules... perfect in fact. There is enouygh on there without plug ins man

yeah the audio engine seems really really good, as much as i hate to say it things seem to sound better than they do in cubase. yeah the native plugins look really good as well, although theres a few synths and things i would like, but as i mostly use native instruments stuff for loads of it i dont think there would be any problem getting them.
im definately on the path to replacing all my pcs with macs i think. just out of interest what spec machine do you run your logic on?

well I iused to run it on a g4 imac with no trouble and aslo on a g4 ibook as well... i recently traded my g4 imac and got the new intel imac... 2 gig of ram min spec is great as a minimum but to be fair it ran well on 1g in my old imac with no issues...

geez man I hate cubase...I always hated the way it works...logic is simpler and cleaner and never gives you any grief fella..not ever...

native instruments do plenty for logic...plus there are loads of other things which rule...

ive done the city centre apartment for years, its all about north london suburbs now though. but macs are great, apart from my music pc my house and the computers i use at work are 100% mac already

I do love logic.. and i only used v5.5! The only drawback would be the lack of plugins on the mac..
