The Logic Off Topic list

I used to record with a P133 with Cakewalk. I used to regularly be able to
record / playback over 16 tracks of audio with DX effects. It was a great
little platform.

The things I miss were unlimited undo, proper audio editor, ie zoom in and
snip, draw etc. the audio at any point and know it will be exactly on the
beat etc... and Cakewalk sets itself up automatically with proper buffer
settings etc. for your hardware... ahhh! those were the days back in 95 (as
far as I remember...)... I wouldnt go back though!
