Woot!!! Let's go.

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

FINALLY!

[@johne1599]

Patrick, I think we have 2 major categories of users these days: 1. Those that use Beats and Live Loops; 2. Those that record live instruments or virtual instruments. DAW of choice might well come down to which camp you’re in. 😉

[@Morenitto89]

The garageband to logic lesson is huge!! Apple met both worlds in the middle: the intuitive and fun style of production with your hands on the screen that makes you spit out ideas in a flash. Combined with a high quality daw with awesome sounds and endless capabilities. Garageband users will crush beats with this and i said it first. Many great producers will be defendants of GarageBand

[@drinkinslim]

They'll stick with GarageBand? I mean, it's not my cup of tea, but it's free.

[@The-End-Of-The-Line]

Very, very helpful. Thank you. I switched over to Logic Pro on iPad a few months ago and I am blown away by the capabilities you get for the price.

[@chebtamer]

Thank you Patrick, great video. Waiting for more in-depth tutorials ❤

[@jono_young]

Mate, thank you🙏 Looking forward to more upcoming guides/tips and tricks…content, you have been invaluable to me for just over a year now. Really appreciate your work!

[@djscratchdog]

The first thing to do is tell Siri to remind you to cancel the subscription before the free trial is over😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@M0DFATH3R]

Agreed lol

[@JuanitoGT502]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Extratone]

You can actually just cancel it immediately and continue to use it for the rest of the trial.

[@darrelldiaz]

As a pro musician who’s been using Logic since it was called Creator on the Atari 1040st, and a current Mac user of Logic Pro X, I agree! The subscription model is no good. I no longer use ProTools or Waves plugins as well because of subscriptions models they added AFTER I already paid for the software.

[@djscratchdog]

@@Extratone thanks I did

Great Tut mate. This is helping me decide which iPad to purchase so that I can use LPX for my live Looping Shows. Keep up the great work - THANKS 😃👍

Hi , great Vlog , any news on mixing templates !

[@GarryKnight]

Excellent video, Patrick. Thanks. Now downloading nearly 18 GB of sound packs onto my iPad Air 5 and, interestingly, onto my iPad Mini 6. I'm eager to try them both out. Should be very interesting.

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Nice one Garry! I’ve been using it on my Mini 6 too and once you get used to the smaller scale, it’s surprisingly usable. Apple seem to have optimised Logic for iPad really well.

[@mobypixel]

Great video, Patrick! I'm really loving the app so far, especially having Retro Synth on iPad.

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

They managed to squeeze a surprising amount of desktop features in here.

[@filbertneon3813]

Pretty cool so far. Seems more streamlined. Lots of stuff to remember. But, it all feels familiar and I started using Logic on the Mac about 2 months ago. I've been using GarageBand for about 2 years. And I can record 20 tracks simultaneously into GarageBand on my 2018 iPad Pro using my Zoom LiveTrak L-20. This is going to be FUN from now on! Thanks Patrick, I'll be watching!

[@robertmac71]

Thx man. I think I will take it for a spin. I really like the option to route audio tracks to specific output channels. I have a model 12 Tascam digital mixer/interface and it’s nice to be able to route tracks back to the mixer and record individual tracks to the mixer’s SD card. The sends functionality is great too. Anyway to store sound library to external drive and still be able to access them in LP for iPad? Haven’t found the answer to this yet. Thx!

Playing with it right now and it looks great. One question that I think a few will have, I know the Apple Pencil is integrated a lot with Logic but does it have to be the Apple one, or will 3rd party ones work?

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Yeah any third party pencil will work, you won’t get hover functionality though.

[@Yosser70]

Glad you enjoyed it mate!

[@peterwaringofficial]

Thanks for all the info! Having had a few hours to play with Logic Pro for iPad, I’m not sure about this app. Firstly, as a long-time Logic for Mac user, there’s quite a *lot* here that isn’t where you expect to find it - there’s definitely some learning to do! I’m not sure it has the correct title either - I think it’s more suited to be called ‘GarageBand Pro for iPad’. PS there’s also some iPads with qualifying processors and iOS version that *cannot* play the available demo track without choking and running out of power / memory.

[@JohnLynagh]

Hi Patrick, is there any interoperability with the mac version?

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Only if you try to load a project that contains desktop plugins not available/installed on your iPad.

[@AuntieG]

Thanks Patrick! Lots of useful tips 👍 The question is, do I dare to venture over from GB? 🤔😂

[@tonychar]

Is logic pro better then cabase?

[@GaryR55]

Question: Given that it's a subscription, there shouldn't be anything else to pay for, right? In other words, there are no IAPs, because you already have access to all the add-ons and updates, right? Should be. That's the way Adobe's Cloud apps work, i.e, you have access to everything.

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Correct, there isn’t anything else to pay for.

[@jonathanburton3175]

Nice video. Question: Does this require a constant connection to the internet?

[@gderksmusic]

No MIDI export? 😢

[@urielfranciscofloreslozano5149]

If i want to invest in a device for logic, would you recommend ipad or a mac? Im not a pro

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

iPad probably. An M1 Air will run Logic really well and you’ll be spending MUCH less than a comparable Mac setup.

[@Hydrotoxic]

Thanks Patrick. Great intro. I have installed on my iPad and just starting with it. Logic Pro is my standard DAW on desktop and have looked forward to this day for a long time. As I don’t really use GarageBand, is there any point in keeping it? The reason I ask is that in the Apple website there is an asterisked comment that says ‘Needs GarageBand’ but I can’t find what it is linked to.

[@therobertfaulkner]

I already bought Logic Pro on my computer, lame that I need a subscription in order to use the iPad. So much for simplifying my life, Apple.

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

I kind of see what you’re saying, but it’s a completely separate program that probably took a lot of time to create. I don’t really see how anyone would expect to get that for free.

[@pablovalenzuela3505]

It looks interesting, especially the new features, but I still feel like it's a garageband on steroids. Do you know if alchemy, which is my favorite synth, comes with all or most of the samples of the mac version?

As a test, i saved the original logic 9 demo song, The Fear by Lily Allen, as a package to iCloud drive, after the logic update - it worked perfectly on my iPad mini! This was a surprise.

For a fiver a month, it's worth me selling my old iPad Pro 12.9 2nd gen, and getting something compatible with this. For powering certain MIDI controllers, USB-C for iPads finally makes sense also.

[@sleekitwan]

I’m quite pedantic about files, so the initial response at my end is not happy - after downloading Logic Pro to my iPad Pro M1 12.9” ipad, when I now go to my folder for GarageBand files, their order has been largely but not entirely reversed. I number my songs that I create, mostly. I give them names later. The ones with names, are sort of where they were, but the ones I have numbered say 001 up to 100, instead of the most recent being at the top when I go into GarageBand, it starts with a few named files, and then lists every song that’s got a number for the title, beginning at the lowest ie 001 - plus I don’t understand why when I start up Logic, it seems to take my GarageBand songs as being Logic’s ‘recents’. Dunno, I wanted Logic Pro not to mess with my existing GarageBand system, and it has. Anyway, we carry on.

To be honest it makes me feel absolutely stupid! It’s nothing like what I’m used to - you can import from the files app? I understand what that means as in I know what the files app is but how do I actually do it when using Logic? It’s completely weird to me 😂 Let’s say I want to put my own sample in Sample Alchemy, how? I’m used to something saying “file open” or “record” within the program itself. I’m close to giving up to be honest

[@Noldy__]

Auv3 you just scroll down when you want to add effects or instruments, then you'll see them. For your own samples, you'll need to use the files app and just drag them inside Logic like the way he's shown at 11:06

[@bitegoatie]

The first thing you suggest by way of sound downloads is the 8-bit thing? Ugh. You mustn't have been very old during the eighties. Not to say there's not good work in there despite the silly bit limitation. Certainly the home-with-garage-and-pool-priced Fairlight and early Synclavier (you had better be good at those prices) and the relatively modestly priced early FM synths from Yamaha were interesting tools despite their bits being prebitten. But quality digital audio left eight-bit levels while we were still in the eighties - to the relief of everyone. That being so, nostalgia for digital distortion and bleeping sounds always strikes me as a blooper from people too young to have lived through the mostly grim first go-round. So starting with that one seems to me just a bit off. That's just me. I supply this reaction just to feed the algorithm. Thanks for the rundown. I watched despite Apple having lost me when I had to make an account and sign away my soul just to use the pad demo, before I could have decided anything about committing to the app. So for me the subscription and its presentation by Apple really is all there is to discuss about this release of Logic.
