Well who knows LaMont, but I kind of doubt it. Mac World has never been
a pro Audio show for Apple. They used to have a booth at NAMM, but they
usually just show what they currently have at the time. It will likely be
GarageBand 07 at MacWorld. Did you hear something?
The year kicks off with CES in Las Vegas, followed by MacWorld then the NAMM
Show. Apple never exhibits at CES, it's kind of a Bill Gates show. Apple
usually shows off their new consumer electronics at MW. The new pro audio
and pro video products are shown off at NAB in april. However, things are
changing at Apple, so you never know.
I think Apple sees SoundTrack as the integrated audio part of FCP, not part
of Logic. I think their strategy is, if you want the features of SoundTrack
you'll ante up for FCP. Then you'll become an FCP user, or vice versa.
I think they will continue to build a tighter integration between Logic and
Sound Track. I think your right, from a users point of view, it would be
a good thing if they integrated all of SoundTrack features in to logic and
improved the usability through the user interface.
Apple needs to make Logic intuitive and easy to use. The Logic, build your
own DAW the way you want, has to be in the back ground. It's great that
you can tweak Logic, but it needs to be easy out of the box. It needs to
be, within fifteen minutes out of the box, your recording, editing, MIDI
and mixing. Nobody wants to read a thick telephone book style manual anymore.
They also need to catch up a bit on some of the whiz bang features other
DAW softwares have now, like Live and SX 4. They should copy others for
once, and also innovate. They really need to make the features so universal
that anybody can painlessly switch to logic, or at least be able to jump
on it in a pinch and be OK.
A huge mistake was kicking VSTs out. they should have kept VST compatibility.
Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong on this one.
In the end, I think Apple will improve Logic and it will be a serious contender
in 07.

I'm rooting for Logic audio. I really am. But, that interface and the way
it handles audio,editing audio has to be changed. It need Soundtrac pro's
look. It needs a polished lookink mixer..Not an apogee symphony mixer add-on..
I hae to say this, but they need to the asthestics of Pro Tools & Nuendo/SX.
Simple, elegant, but powerful.
If not, then Logic & DP will be small players for film composers only. Meanwhile,
Pro Tools/SX, Sonar, Samplitude keeps a great divide .. Just having great
midi is not going to cut anymore these days. Nuendo/SX & even Protools does
more than most user need to compose tier music.
I really do hope somebody at emagic/Apple comes to term with their delima,,
and re-write the entire Logic App from group up like Steingberg did back
in 2000 with Neundo, then SX..
