Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

HI,
I'm starting to learn Logic Express 7.1 (on G4 800MHz). Previously I 
used Cubase VST, so I'm familiar with Antares AutoTune.... but the 
enhance pitch feature (Logic) doesn't seem to do anything! Does anyone 
have a clue about this, or does it work on other machines? Is there a 
plug-in called CORRECT pitch in the pro version, but only 'enhance' in 
the express version? I haven't yet (but am about to) install Apple's 
Pro app support update from late 2005 -- doubt this will help.

Any ideas about enhance pitch feature?

Yes.  However, it looks like Enhance and Correct are the same 
processes, just with different feature sets.  The pro version lets you 
define your own scales, but otherwise looks to have the same 
functionality.  The description for enhance is not in the plug-in 
reference, but the What's New in 7.1! doc.  I would be surprised if 
they used different algorithms, so basic functionality is probably not 
a lot better on the pro version.

I definitely like auto-tune better that pitch correct.  I haven't 
messed around with more extreme settings, but it just doesn't seem to 
do anything to an out-of-tune flute solo I'm trying to fix.

You probably know this from working with AT, but you get better results 
with maj or min scales than chromatic.  Fewer pitch targets helps it 
determine variance from those targets better.

I can only import sampl files to the first 8 tracks in Logic Express.  is that right?  Doesnt 
seem right.   Cant be.

What am I doing wrong?
