This update improves overall stability, provides numerous fixes and enhancements, and is recommended for all users of Logic Pro 9.

Some issues addressed include (but are not limited to):

* Replace mode now functions as expected when Punch Recording.
* Trimming a region now behaves correctly for regions whose first transient is quantized.
* Using "Paste at Original Position" in the Arrange window now works as expected.
* Using track import Replace to channel strip used on multiple tracks in the Arrange window now works as expected.
* Correct automation values are now maintained when one region is moved over another with the "Move Automation with Regions" option.
* Addresses an issue where the Save button on a Logic/Mackie Control stays lit when pressed with some projects.
* The Reassign Track shortcut menu now correctly displays the currently assigned channel strip object.
* Text Only mode for the Toolbar now remains in effect when an option is clicked on the Toolbar.
* MIDI commands can now be assigned to key commands with fixed assignments.
* Clicking solo on a channel strip no longer selects the channel strip.
* Fixes an issue where Logic would quit unexpectedly if the grid value in the Hyper Edit Convert Event definition dialog was changed.
* MIDI regions now play at the correct tempo when scrubbed with the Solo tool.
* Current project Mixer settings are now correctly maintained when importing tracks with "Send all fader values" enabled.
* EXS24 now correctly displays all parameters in Editor view for instruments created in Logic 8.
* Logic no longer quits unexpectedly in recording situations where both a MIDI and audio track are record enabled and the MIDI track is not selected.

Enhancements implemented include:

* It is now possible to measure and provide latency compensation for an external signal chain that is routed via the I/O plug-in.
* You can now snap align Flex Markers to MIDI notes within other tracks in the Arrange window.
* The Automap feature for Novation MIDI controllers now functions when using the Logic Studio plug-ins.
* Apogee's UV-22 dithering algorithm now an option when bouncing audio files.


MainStage 2.0.1 Update


This update improves overall performance and provides numerous fixes and enhancements, especially to Loopback and Playback plug-ins. This update is recommended for all users of Mainstage 2.

Issues addressed include (but are not limited to):

* The memory usage display is now more accurate and shows MainStage and total system memory combined.
* Feedback protection is now disabled if not in use resulting in a significant CPU performance improvement for audio channels.
* The Reverse option for Loopback now behaves consistently.
* Pitchbend is now transmitted properly to external instruments.
* The I/O plug-in is now available in Mainstage.

Enhancements include:

* Loopback can now be started by a Play action.
* Loopback now has an option to transfer its tempo information to the Concert when its Sync option is disabled, and it derives its tempo from the first recorded loop.
* The Post-Pan option is now available for channel strip Sends.
* MIDI out is improved to make it possible to send program changes via Mapping, and to allow MIDI Start/Stop/Continue messages to be sent on patch changes to external channel strips.

shit that was some list

Did it fix the amount of system overloads?
Bah I can run 2x the synths I use on Logic in Live seamlessly..

Hmm.. I wonder if they added UV22HR dithering to all Logic users since Apple/Apogee/Euphonix teamed up, or if it's just people with Apogee hardware.

I wish I could upgrade but I have a Power-PC based desktop and it wont run on it.. whomp

Erm, thats probably why logic seems less powerful that ableton, me thinks. Logic 8/9 is optimized/designed to work with intel macs.

Actually Logic runs better on my power-pc G5 than it does on my intel macbook. But that is probably just the fact I have more RAM in my desktop. I'd love to update to 9 on my laptop but it's no longer compatible with power-pc so there would be session conflicts between my two computers. It seems like they just added a lot more stuff for singer-songwriters so I don't really see a reason for me to upgrade anyways.

Could well be ram, or a top spec powerPC vs. entry level macbook but even then I'd be leaning towards the fact the macbook is probably bogged down with way more non audio applications, data, etc than the desktop?

What do yo mean session conflicts? Logic is backwards compatible, meaning logic 8 or lower session will work on 9 (not vice versa), unless you are missing AU's or bundled FX from previous logic versions.

Also, if you networked them it wouldn't even be too much of a mission rebuild the session from one version to another.

Yes there are some changes for songwriters but I think the timestretch is a greatly needed (and overdue upgrade) as well as audio quantise and apparently better system efficency when combined with the new OS update.
