Logic Pro 9 Vs. Pro Tools 10

Sunday, November 4, 2012


Their will always be a debate about which is the better DAW Logic Vs. Pro Tools. Some people love to mix and Logic and others love to mix in the industry standard Pro Tools.  If you think about it they both do the same and the end product is the same. If you were to listen to a song or a beat on the radio or even in studio headphones could you tell if the beat was mixed down in Logic or Pro Tools? Could you tell if the song was mixed in Logic or Pro Tools?

Both Pro Tools and Logic can be used to compose, record, edit, and mix. Pro Tools is known mainly for adding the beginning touches to a song better known mixing.  Then it goes to get mastered which is a whole different process and DAW. Logic is more on the artist/ creative side while Pro Tools is on the engineer/technical side.

As for the tech Specs in Pro Tools you can record high-resolution audio up to 32-bit/192kHz and experience exceptionally low latency. Logic has a resolution of 64-bit. Logic on has a total of 64 busses while PT has 256 busses, Logic has 102 software instruments and PT only has 64. With PT you only get 160 Aux channel strips and with Logic you get 255 Aux channels.

Pro Tools is also known for contributing to work in the audio postproduction industry and video editing. When working on Postproduction it is best to work in Pro Tools HD. On Pro Tools HD you can mix in stereo or surround sound basically mono up to 7.1 surround sound.

In conclusion when it comes down to picking which DAW you want it all depends on what you are trying to do and how much you want to spend. Logic runs on Intel Mac and allows you to connect to any audio interface. Now when it comes to Pro Tools you have can now take your session with you wherever you go and mix with out carry an AVID interface along with you. All you simply need is and Ilok, and if you recording you can use any interface you like.  Pro Tools 10 would run you $ 699.00 USD and Logic 9 would run you $199.99 USD
