Logic Pro For IPad Has Been Updated

Apple has updated Logic Pro, available as a FREE download with optional in-app purchases.

What’s new in version 2.2:

• Learn MIDI
• Use your favorite MIDI device to control plug-ins, instruments, and automatable parameters in Logic*
• Create connections quickly using the intuitive Learn MIDI interface — simply select a control in Logic and move the corresponding physical control (like a fader, knob, switch, and pad) on your connected device
• Visual feedback displays assigned and available controls in real time, helping you stay in flow while mixing, automating effects, or fine-tuning instruments
• Flashback Capture
• Recover and save an improvisational performance that otherwise may have been lost because Logic was not set to record
• Use Flashback Capture on almost any source (MIDI, audio or external instruments) to capture dynamic performances as they happen*
• Enable cycle mode to improvise multiple takes, without the pressure of being in record — Logic can then retrieve them to a take folder, or multiple new tracks
• Enhanced Stem Splitter
• Split stems from audio recordings with even greater audio fidelity — now with support for guitar and piano**
• Use the new submix feature to create a custom audio file, like an instrumental or just drums with bass
• Use presets to quickly make sets of commonly used stem mixes like acapella, instrumental, instrumental with vocal, and more
• Drum and Bass Pack
• Dancefloor Rush delivers peak-time Drum and Bass with hard-hitting synths and drums
• Connecting third‑party external microphones, musical instruments, or MIDI controllers with Logic Pro for iPad requires devices compatible with iOS and iPadOS
