Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

the uad stuff is definitely good, but they know how we lust for more 
and more obscure gear, and you end up buying more and more of their 
plugins ... now costing from $150 usually to as much as $300. the key 
thing in buying it on ebay is whether it comes with plugins and/or a 
voucher coupon. the card alone means you'll have to spend a bundle to 
get plugins. you might want to buy it new from a store where you get 
some plugins and a voucher to buy more.

if you want a relatively inexpensive all in one solution - you might 
consider Izotope or Wave Arts - which have some efficient and well 
designed "swiss army knife" processors.

I think the T-Racks and the UAD stuff are in different leagues - but

that doesn't necessarily rule one or the other out.
