Pity it's Intel only...
G5 users cry quietly into their beer...

The flex tools seem pretty cool. Also the sampler feature makes Recycle 
unnecessary. I wonder if there are any new plug ins or other new 
features or bug fixes not mentioned. Its $199 upgrade.

	They sure do

	It certainly seems as if they have put quite a bit of effort 
into improving dealing with sampled audio.

	It seems as if the only new plugins  are the guitar related 
ones - Amp Designer and the Pedalboard stompbox collection. The Amp 
designer is nice - I'm not sure how much new stuff the Pedboard stomp 
box stuff will give you if you aren't a guitar playing vintage gear 
specialist. The examples do sound pretty nice, though.

	It also seems that Mainstage has basically had the features 
added that it needed to become really useful - backing tracks, 
rewire, inbuilt recording, etc.
	Cheers

My problem with using the Logic cut up samples is that it doesn't do a  
very good job---they sound rough, scratchy and with lots of noise or  
distortion--you really need to get Recycle or something else that cuts  
samples up into Rex files....
I know it's probably a little early to ask this but does anyone have  
any knowledge of how well this new sampler feature in Logic 9 works?

Bound to be but as all the other DAW's have released new products  
Apple had to bite the bullet I guess !!!

My guess, and I have not read every thing through completely yet, is  
that they have also added features to make use of Snow Leopards new 64  
bit & scheduler  etc improvements  and these will kick in when snow  
leopard eventually hits the floor.  With luck that will make the  
software s quicker, and even more efficient.

They also release the video partner application (Final Cut) too  
because obviously the products are almost a pair in some ways and  
share a lotta functionality...

According to the Forums etc it is not Intel only.. Apple just don't  
mention older systems because in many cases the systems are no longer  
supported hardware.
But there are users on the Apple Logic Studio Forum that a have  
installed and are using it on G5's. so no need to panic..  - except  
depending on your config ala memory etc..
