- Apple releases Logic Studio and Logic Express 8
Filed under: Multimedia, Software
With the Apple Store back up, it seems that it wasn't merely maintenance this morning, as the store now bears new versions of Apple's professional music software, Logic Pro 8 (now 'Logic Studio'). Logic Studio's new features include:
- A new single-window interface (similar to Apertures)
- Improved editing
- Sountrack Pro 2.0 in the box
- The ability to "...save your key commands, channel strip settings and plug-in settings to your .Mac account for easy backup, sharing, and portability".
Logic Express, the little brother to the studio suite, also received an upgrade to version 8, with the baby brother $199US version taking many of the new features in the Pro version including "...full notation, 24-bit/192kHz resolution, and Quick Swipe comping". Previous versions of Logic Express can upgrade for $99.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

We've previously posted on Leopard's Dock problem (viz. it doesn't work well on the side because of the reflections, etc.). Now, Brandon Walkin has an interesting post on his IndieHIG blog about Leopard's default folder icons. It seems that Leopard's icon art (so far) leaves a lot to be desired - aesthetically and functionally. He argues that the Leopard folder icons don't fit well in the the Aqua interface and fail to convey important information at a glance. I think he's basically right...what about you?

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/09/12/deer-park-il-apple-store-ready-to-open/#comments - 20" iMac LCD color problems?
Filed under: Hardware, Rumors, iMac
Okay this one is a little shaky because my French is non-existent. But in this post (Google translation) at the French Mac site MacBidouille, they present evidence that the LCD panel in the new 20" iMacs is not a 24bit color panel as in the previous generation, but an 18bit panel instead. Support for this includes the Kodawarisan take-apart photos which appear to show the panel as a LG PHILIPS LM201WE3. This panel seems to be a TN (twisted nematic) display most of which, according to wikipedia, "...are unable to display the full 16.7 million colors (24-bit truecolor) available from modern graphics cards." Other discussions online seem to support this conclusion.
Of course, we heard complaints before about color reproduction on Apple LCD displays. If true, this is consistent with the reviews (e.g. Macworld magazine) that have complained about the quality of the 20" screen versus that of the 24" iMac. If correct this would be a powerful reason to prefer the 24" iMac, particularly if color accuracy is very important to you (e.g. for working with photos).

When checking the Apple Store (US) this morning, we found that familiar yellow sticky note. It's probably some sort of maintenance - I don't imagine there would be an unannounced update just after the iPod event.
Or maybe preparations are being made for that $100 credit iPhone early adopters were promised. In any case, we'll keep you posted. Has anyone found that online stores outside the US are down as well?
Thanks to everyone who sent this in!Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: iTS, iTunes, iPhone
Just 24 hours after enabling ringtones in the US iTunes store, Apple has added a "Top Ringtones" tracker [iTunes link] to the front page. As of this writing, Nickleback has a lock on the #1 slot [iTunes link].
This demonstrates that someone is buying these (just not very many TUAW readers). I'll admit that the next time my iPhone rings, everyone around me will be treated to Eddie Van Halen's solo from Unchained. I hope they like it.
