Logic Pro 9 is our preferred choice of software and can comfortably handle more than 56 channels of glitch free audio. With a further 32 channels of midi tracks still available on the Emagic AMT 8 interface.

There is a host of quality outboard such as the rich valves of the TL Audio 5050 compressor & the TL Audio 5013 EQ and for that final 'big sound mastering' the TC Finalizer Express pushes the sound into another dimension..
