I'm in the same boat as Sascha. I have invested more in PC related software then that which I can run on a Mac. As much as I would love to use a Mac for my audio work, I am tied into the PC and cannot afford to buy a replacement machine such as the Mac. I have already made enquiries about cross grading to Cubase SX, I have taken a look at this software and I think it will deliver what most of us PC Logic users want. The thing it cannot replace is the many, many hours and experience gained using Logic. I have decided that I am going to order SX, as the 300Eur is a very good price and it will work out cheaper for me in the long run. Just a pity that Steinberg are not doing the same cross grade deal for the EXS24 to HALion product.

But shelling out around 2500 Euros (and that would be the LEAST amount ot money) for a Mac, just to own a machine that still is slower than what I would get from upgrading my current machine (which would cost me 500 Euros max.), is ridiculous. I never had too much stability problems apart from the times where I was testing a new beta or some new VST plugin either. Call me a poor dude, OK, I am. I simply can't afford any Mac that would deliver even the same performance that I am getting with my current machine (an Athlon 1GHz). Yes, it's that easy for me. I just can't afford it, period. Maybe I could if it was for Logic only, but there's a whole bunch of apps I use regularly that don't even exist on Macs. So I'd have to get at least some replacements (if there are any). And that's just it. Simple and sad - but still true. I will continue using what I have for a while (maybe even for a long while), but Cubase SX sure looks more tempting than any Mac at the moment. At least in the long run. Regards, Sascha Yahoo!
