Apple has released updates to two of their “professional” software bundles today. Both Logic and Final Cut Studio has seen a bump in numbers and features. The new features are a little cryptic as it currently stands, but we’ll fill you in on what’s in these updates that made an upgrade necessary.
Final Cut Studio
The Final Cut bundle has seen its core applications all get bumped up a number, Final Cut Pro is at 7, Motion is now at 4, Soundtrack Pro, Compressor, and Color have also all seen improvements. From the looks of the Apple website, it seems like DVD Studio is standing all alone without any updates.
Logic Gets a Bump
I don’t use this application bundle at all so I can’t really comment on what’s new and what’s remained the same but from the looks of the propaganda page, it seems like a number of new features were added today.
More options for guitar players
Logic Express 9 is perfect for guitar players, with new features for getting killer tones right out of the box.
