- smoldesu 3y agoDoes Logic Pro support controller extensions? If they do, they could add "support" with an unofficial plugin like Bitwig or Reaper does. Something tells me the iPad+Push experience wouldn't really be a gamechanger though, at least right now.
- nr2x 3y agoAgree, I think it will be limited. However, I could see a niche where it’s a good way to play your tracks live. Maybe you’d have to bounce some tracks in advance if they aren’t iOS compatible for whatever reason.
- smoldesu 3y agoI want to interpret this charitably, but I've travelled with touring musicians before (even Mac-obsessed ones) and none of their setups are iPad-ible. You might be able to get it to work with a 1i1o DAC for clean audio output, but... genuinely nobody I know would bother with that. The requirements for live performance are brutal, even this standalone Push would be borderline suicide to rely on for a show.
- coldtea 3y ago>The feature parity is there, most people consider using one or the other a matter of personal preference. For musicians (professional or semi-pro) that use Logic on a laptop the feature parity is nowhere there. They depend on tens of AUs ("VSTs") that aren't available on the iPad for example, on top of lots of other stuff.
- nr2x 3y agoI haven’t used it on iPad yet, I meant in regards to desktop. Biggest issue on iPad is lack of device drivers. Class Compliant audio only gets you so far.
- amanaplanacanal 3y agoThose VSTs won’t run on a push 3 either. Of course ableton comes with a pretty good array of instruments and effects, so maybe this isn’t that big a deal.
- wahnfrieden 3y agoFabFilter? Eventide? Pianoteq? Sugarbytes? It’s starting to get decent out there.
