Apple Offers Shake Demo and Logic Express Demo
Yesterday, I mentioned receiving a Motion Demo CD
in the mail. Well, now Apple is offering 30-day trial versions of
Shake 3 and Logic Express. Shake is up to 3.5, so I wonder if the demo is of 3.5 or only 3, as noted. It's a high-end special effects program that has been used on films like The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and X-Men.
It normally runs just under $3000, so if you are one of those people (like me) who starts playing with something and then simply must have it, then you might want to avoid downloading the demo.
Logic Express, on the other hand, "provides a step up from GarageBand for aspiring musicians, producers and composers without breaking the bank. With the same flexible layout as Logic Pro, you can dive deeper into the creation and manipulation of audio and MIDI, for just $299." I've used Logic 6 in the past, so I'll probably download this demo to see how Apple has improved upon the Logic platform.
