Good news: You don’t have to buy a new iPad Pro to get the updates to Logic Pro and Final Cut, including the new AI features.
The Best iOS Apps for iPad in 2023: Make the iPad Pro Worth It!
Along with the new iPad Pro, Apple also announced some very cool new features coming to its Pro iPad apps. The implication was that the new features in these apps will require the new device, but as long as you have an iPad or Mac with an M1 chip or better, you can get your hands on these fancy new software goodies.
“Regarding AI in Logic Pro, I see it as a powerful assistant that can accelerate the creative process. It can automate mundane tasks, perform analysis and suggest corrections in mixing, and even inspire new music creation through its predictive capabilities. The creative core, however, must still come from the artist,” Sam Tarantino, co-founder of music streaming service Grooveshark, told Lifewire via email.
Logic Pro for iPad 2 will likely be a much bigger update than Apple let on in this week’s introduction video, as the current version is missing a lot of core functionality. Still, the new AI features are pretty big news, and it uses AI in a way that can actually be useful to musicians, rather than trying to make a weird, beat-less song based entirely on a prompt, as Google and others have done.
