The light version of Logic Pro is, of course, Logic Express, and when you look at it a bit more closely, it isn't actually very light at all, despite being priced at under £200.
For that reason, I thought it was worth throwing the spotlight onto the light version of Apple's Logic, which offers particularly good value for money. Most home-studio users could do pretty much everything they need using a 'light' version of their favoured program, saving themselves money and avoiding undue complexity at the same time. Buying the Express version of Apple's Logic will save you a cool £500 over the full-blown Pro edition - and you'll still get a mighty powerful sequencer.īack in April 2005, Martin Walker wrote a very well reasoned article pointing out that many people don't really need the flagship versions of MIDI + Audio software packages.
