I don't think that's going to happen just yet. I'm an apple reseller, and Apple in general seems to still feel that Soundtrack fills a niche that Garage Band and Logic don't touch: the non-musician in need of some fast, royalty-free music for their commercial projects. I haven't yet noticed them calming down at all with regards to their sales training and support of Soundtrack, as I myself had expected. Although I would love for them to drop Soundtrack, as Soundtrack reduces the need for real composers making real money on real commercial jobs. Cheers. Foley Dual 1.8 G5, Tascam FW-1884, Logic Pro 7.

A thought just occurred to me, for those of us with older computers (dual G4 533 here...) we can use Logic¹s node computing feature and one of these sub $500 Mac¹s to boost our performance. Maybe have all loops and samples on the iHome and Logic on our Powermacs. I think I will try this myself and report the results to the group... Easier on the wallet than getting a new G5...

Where's this info coming from that Soundtrack's history. Apple announced today the new Final Cut Express HD, which comes equipped with a full version of Soundtrack, otherwise unavailable in the FC Express package. Ships Jan 22nd. Also, check out that new Garage Band 2. Wow. Garage Band 2 is like Logic Express Express. Foley

I thought I read a press release on Apple's site about Soundtrack being discontinued but now I cannot find it. However, I cannot not find Soundtrack anywhere in the Apple Store for sale as a standalone product, only as part of FCE HD and FCP. Sorry for the confusion. Anyone know for sure if Apple is still selling ST separately?

> Where's this info coming from that Soundtrack's history. I read that Apple has been telling it's retailers that Soundtrack is at the end of its cycle and that it would not be upgraded. Also that they no longer sell it on their website. Maybe it is going the way of Soundiver. I'm hoping that Soundiver will become integrated with Logic Pro(I hope Logic Pro 7.1). Kamm
