Apple Releases Logic Pro 11.1 for Mac

Apple today released Logic Pro 11.1 for Mac and Logic Pro 2.1 for iPad, adding new features for songwriting, producing, and mixing. There's a new Quantec Room Simulator plug-in that uses the original algorithms and code from Quantec founder Wolfgang Buchleitner, allowing users to add naturalistic acoustic space to their music with Quantec QRS, or to select Quantec Yardstick for more accurate modeling of acoustic spaces.

Logic Pro Mac
Plug-in search lets Final Cut Pro users find and add any plug-in from the plug-in menu without clicking on a channel strip insert. Users can search by categories, company name, or part of a plug-in name.

There is a new Modular Melodies sound back that includes hundreds of loops crafted from patchable hardware synths and a collection of meticulously designed Alchemy synth patches.

Along with these features, the app also includes several enhancements.

  • Drag channel strips to organize your mixer layout
  • Send your mix directly to Voice Memos and preview on iPhone, ‌iPad‌ or Apple Watch
  • Click on any plug-in slot while holding the command key to quickly remove plug-ins
  • Quickly set input, output, side chain source, or bus routings using in-menu search
  • Use key commands to move Marquee selections in all directions to speed up editing

Apple has also released a new version of Logic Remote with stability improvements and bug fixes.

It’s a crying shame that Logic isn’t on Vision Pro yet. I can’t believe the missed opportunity.

You’re in for a shock when it stops working as the licence will be MDM-issued and therefore device-based, and your Mac won’t have it…
nope

any version of LogicPro.app will work on any macOS install just fine

I bought it years ago anyway because it's an absolute steal for the price anyway, and a lot of what I use it for does get released commercially

but it's doesn't really have any real "piracy" protection

Can't wait to Airdrop myself a copy from a display Mac in a local store.

EDIT: In case it's not clear, this is a joke. Yes, you can Airdrop these apps right off a display Mac, you've been able to for a long time. No, I'm not going to actually do it, partly because I already have an older version, and partly because I never use it.

is it a free upgrade for those of us that own Logic Pro X?
Seems so. I can just download the update from the App Store and I had the previous version of Logic Pro installed.
