Logic Pro 7 is a full fledged studio type mah-bobber. Don't know too much about that program. All I know is it's more advanced than anything I've used. I would love to hear someones input from anyone who uses that.
i use logic 7 (although 8 is the newest, i just dont like 8 for whatever reason. im sure i will upgrade one day) and i do love it. i still think most music programs are largly increadably similar, it all comes down to either personal taste or, in professional studios, standardization. FL is something different, but that is because it evolved out of trackers and works a little differently, and reason is somewhere inbetween "professional" programs like cubase and logic and FL. well not quite but thats not really the point. most audio and midi sequencers work in the same way just you have to click in diffrent ways to do the same thing.
most big studios use protools, which tehcnically the program is free but you need the hardware to run it (cheepest being the mbox mini at £200 (i cant be doing with finding an american shop for the price there, but £200 is about $390) and then up to the £10k,£20k,£30k up protools HD systems) and the hardware is increadably good so why not use the software that its made for.
i use an intel mac with logic, a large number of plugins, some very nice westfeild monitors (speakers) and a number of peices of hardware i only use once in a while or for live just because ive collected it over the years and im too lazy to properly set it up. i wish i would becouse i love using hardware, imagin using reason but in real life, its just so fun touching things, but i dont.
logic is great for midi work, programming beats and tunes down to a detail that is just unnessisary and the envoroment is good when you need it, although i dont usually need it. its a part of the program where you can break everything apart and plug things in again, a little like plugging things in in reason but i wont go into that as it is very complicated and i dont fully understand it (dispite using logic since i was about 13) but overall if you understand reason then you can understand logic quick enough, sometimes it is even simpler.
