Apple to Release New Version of Logic?

How about Apple releases a 0.1 upgrade to Logic 8? Maybe with som... bug fixes? That would be awesome. Haven't had a 0.01 in more than a year.
Don't get me wrong. I love Apple. I love Logic. But the idea that Logic 8 was a beta test for Logic 9? That makes me more than a little crankity.
Love your site Tom.
Thanks, Joel. I agree that I wish they were a little more regular with their updates. Granted, I have very few problems with Logic, but there are a few bugs that are long overdue to get fixed.
I haven't seen the rumors, but this would be a version 9 release, correct? I'm currently just using Logic 8 Express, so perhaps I'll hold out to get the full version until a new release comes out.
Great picture! Had to think about it for a few seconds before I recognized the connection :-)
Derek - My guess is it would be version 9. They generally don't make big announcements for .x updates, but who knows? Guess we'll just have to wait til June.
Employing Vulcanesque Logic:
* Why would Apple release an update to Logic when Summer NAMM is 5-6 weeks directly after that?
http://www.namm.org/summer
* Logic is *clearly* one of the apps that will be able to take full advantage of the native 64 bit OS in Snow Leopard. While I *am* convinced that there will be a 9.x version of Logic, it doesn't make sense it would arrive prior to 10.6's release.
Kirk - Apple tends to like to announce things on their own terms. I don't believe they even usually attend NAMM. Instead, they prefer to make big announcements at their own events.
The second point is a good one, but I guess time will tell!
Also, as I noted in an earlier post, Propellerheads is allegedly going to introduce a new piece of software (possibly a DAW) this weekend... also before summer NAMM.
