I wonder what time it will drop., will it just appear in the app store without ceremony or will there be a separate subscription page…either way, be good to see my old friend Alchemy and what thy have done with her…more excited about that than I am using Logic, but who knows, I may be blown away by the iOS DAW implementation- if Apple cant do it (after years of Garageband) then I doubt anyone can!

Okay, overall take - 9.5/10
It’s not Garageband Pro, it’s not everything in the desktop version of logic, but it’s more than enough to be orders of magnitude better than any DAW ever on iOS.
Key things:
- UI is incredibly fluid and easy to get around
- The plugin tiles are so useful - even AUv3s show controls. Love the metering. love love love them
- Region and midi editing are quick and fluid. Best I’ve used in an iOS DAW
- Very powerful region and midi controls - very deep settings for quantization, etc
- Time sig, tempo, markers are all solid
- All of the instruments are there and redesigned UIs (except Ultrabeat (which is now Drum Machine Designer)) and the full Sampler.
- All of the effects are there
- Midi fx are there, including SCRIPTER!!!
- AUv3s so far integrate very nicely, feel native
- Full automation editing for Auv3s
- Mixer is incredible
- All of the drummers are there
- Pattern editor is all there, very very very deep
- Live loops all there
- The chord strips, guitar strips, fretboard and scale locked keyboard are nice and available in any instrument
- The browser now includes previews for everything (including instruments) - something missing from desktop logic
- Has flex time
Things missing from the desktop so far:
- Score editor
- Arrangement markers
- Region aliases
- No flex pitch editing or flex time marker editing
- Alchemy full editing (though somewhat compensated by Sample Alchemy)
- Full Multi Sampler is there for compat but no editing (the Quick Sampler mitigates with full features, slicing, time stretch, etc)
- Settings are a bit sparse
- No environment editor
Overall, totally worth it. For all of the “well it’s not going to be 1:1 to desktop”, they’re mostly right - there are some things missing, but 1) they’re mostly mitigated and 2) other than arrangement markers and region aliases, are things that probably wouldn’t translate well to an ipad. There might be other things I’m missing and will have to try roundtrip back and forth to desktop, but yeah solid 9.5/10. Game changer.

Lol it’s only been two hours. Thanks for the quick thoughts though, can’t wait to get home from work and try this out. Have you tried out the pencil features?

Installed on iPad mini 6. Takes up about 2.5GB right after after install.
Importing a Garage Band song it asks to convert it to a duplicate Logic Pro project. Seems to work good so far.
Haven’t tried pencil yet
Did you figure out how get multiple outs from AUv3s? I’m starting to think maybe you can’t.
So could I hook up my iPad Pro to a powered USB hub, connect my key step to the same hub and my digitone through USB to the same hub and then use my key step to play through logic on the iPad to sequence my digitone. Then also sequence into the digi but out the digitone midi tracks to external stuff?
Oh my god. I would have died.

After this finished downloading, I just stood around for an hour at a microphone, ipad in hand, recording bits, singing, sampling, auto-tuning, tape delaying, sampling, chopping, hammering in a quick beat and bass, right there. my neck hurts slightly, but safe to say… this might be a big fun machine

Is Alchemy in there…?

Guys, guys… check this out:
You can select different output/input devices… including chose between several interfaces connected at once, the iPad speaker and any of the mics… Jesus Christ!
OK, Apple, you have my subscription.
Also, the UI is insanely well thought out and useful and almost everything is there. AU’s work well too.
