New member from Antwerp - Belgium

Hi. Introducing myself.
My name is Wilfried Dockx from Belgium - Antwerp.
I'm a Logic user since '99. Means I'm still holding on to the 
Platinum version 3.6 running upon an ancient Mac 8600.

Just got myself a new (used) G4, so thinkin' about getting myself 
Logic Pro 7 of Express 7.
I'm not a professional but an amateur home recorder but like to get 
pro results.
If not the prize of the Logic Pro 7 vs Express 7 make the difference, 
should I go for the Logic Pro 7 or would that be overkill?

It depends on what you are doing exactly. A lot of midi and little audio
and few plug ins should be fine for the G4, however, I just upgraded to
G5 for logic. Regarding Pro versus Express, it seems that Express is a
really good deal. I saw it being sold for $99 in the store as an upgrade
to Garage Band I think (or maybe it was an upgrade to the now discontinued
Soundtrack). But you can get Logic Pro for $499 if you have connections
to an educational institution or know someone who does. You can check
Apple's webpage to see a matrix of the differences in the two programs.

Unless you are able to get discounts on the the Pro version as was
previously mentioned, just buy the Express version because you can upgrade
to the Pro version for the difference in price. That way, if Express makes
you happy, you have not wasted any money.
