I wish there was another company that made a program as musical as 
logic but with better customer support, silly me! the logic forum has 
always been a bit self-righteous and i never could figure that out. i 
thought that's the only place to get help with problematic issues in 
real time. so many programmers write and don't test performance 
enough before putting it out on the shelves and charging big bucks 
for a nice idea but very flawed product. when you try to communicate 
with support, you get the lesser than treatment. i'd be grateful to 
have people explain to me what i did wrong or need to tweak a bit if 
i was the writer. seems we're really the ones doing them a favor but 
they don't have the integrity to see it that way. hope i don't get 
censored.
