Apple on Monday released major updates of Logic Pro for Mac and iPad. The updates to Apple’s music authoring software bring the Mac version to 10.8, and the iPad version to 1.1.
Apple also updated MainStage, its Mac app that acts as a live rig with Logic Pro. GarageBand, Apple’s audio editing app for consumers, was also updated. Both received bug fixes. Here’s what’s new with the Logic apps:
The release notes for Logic Pro for Mac 10.8 detail the new features:

- Transform any audio sample into a malleable sound that you can perform using Sample Alchemy
- Radically reshape and reshuffle audio with Beat Breaker, a sophisticated time and pitch morphing plug-in
- New Slip and Rotate tools allow for the contents inside a region to be moved independent of its position on the timeline
- Ability to record in 32-bit float now available when using supported audio devices
- Free “Hybrid Textures” Sample Alchemy pack includes a collection of 70 patches and over 80 loops built from found sounds flipped into creative playable instruments
