  1. Unfortunately, I believe the user ability to do this was changed, at least according to what I have read online (again, recent posts) and neither of the two techs indicated this would work currently. If this option had been presented, I would have certainly tried it. Viewing all this Bitwig content has me thinking, tho'. I could run the latest version of.Bitwig and not really have to worry about anything in terms of compatibility with my computer, legacy hardware, etc. Of course, Logic offers a great deal more with regard to included instruments. This will be one of the hardest things to sacrifice.
  2. You would think so! The techs said.it had something to do with anti-pirating. I think it's BS. Looking into Bitwig as I write this.
  3. My MBP is upgradeable to Big Sur so newest version is all that's available. I spoke to two people at Apple, both of whom all but apologized for this. Egregious move on Apple's part methinks.
  4. Has anyone tried the Family Sharing route? I'm running Mojave. I have zero desire to update to Big Sur for a few reasons; most notably that some of my legacy equipment will not even run on it. Apple will not allow me to DL anything other than the latest version of Logic as my Macbook Pro is upgradeable to Big Sur. But... I'm wondering if there's a workaround. My cousin has a purchase of LPX 10.3 in his history. He never upgraded. He said he would be willing to share that version with me via Apple Family Sharing. The question is, will I be able to DL THAT version on my MBP or will the system recognize my laptop as upgradable to Big Sur and I'm in the same pickle? 10.3 is more than enough for my relatively modest production needs so I don't feel I'd be losing out and could stick with Mojave, which I quite like AND allows for 32-bit plugins, I believe. If you have any experience or info with this potential solution, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks.
  5. So, I am getting more up-to-date (sort of) with my Logic setup. I actually would like to set things up first for Garageband and graduate to Logic, so please keep that in mind. When I say I'm updating it means I'm leaving my 2008 Mac Pro tower behind and graduating to a Macbook Pro mid-2015 running Mojave (there's a reason for this). I'm leaning towards the Audient and SSL2+ (the latter offers MIDI, which I need to accommodate my ancient Yamaha controller) but any suggestions on interfaces, etc., is much appreciated. The Logic-related things I am wondering are: 1. Thunderbolt or USB external SSD? 2. Optimal SSD size (if any) reliable brands(?) 3. Version of Logic (if this is possible to choose!) Again, must be compatible with Maschine MK2, hence Mojave OS as MK2 is not compatible with Big Sur. My Macbook Pro Mid-2015 2.5 Ghz 500 GB internal drive 16 GB RAM Dual Graphics I was running Logic 10.2 on my other computer, so I imagine I could port that over to the Macbook, but, again I'm new to all of this so not sure. I've read it's, like, near impossible to download (or downgrade) to older versions of Logic. Workarounds? I am very much reliant on the Maschine for my percussion needs. I'm revamping to record songs and incidental music for my latest rock musical. The tower mentioned above has been slowly dying. Sorry for the longwindedness here but I'm not really sure which information is relevant to this matter and what is not. Any advice is much appreciated & I thank you in advance!
