Apple release Logic updates

Apple has updated the Apple Store with new versions of Logic Studio and Express. Dubbed “Logic Studio 8″ and “Logic Express 8″, the new versions include a revamped interface, a price reduction and many new features.

Logic Studio brings a new single window interface, a simpler setup, quick swipe comping, new audio editing tools, surround sound mixing/processing, and the retirement of the Dongle. Additionally, Apple has added a new component, MainStage, which lets keyboardists, guitarists, and other musicians perform with software instruments and effects through a full-screen interface designed specifically for the stage.

Apple dropped the price of Logic Studio from $999 to $499.

Logic Express features many of the same interface improvements as Studio, and new features such as Guitar Amp Pro, Ringshifter, and full-featured Pitch Correction. The price of Logic Express drops from $299 to $199. Both are available now from the Apple Store.
