"

"Rare" cases my fanny, but I'm glad they fixed this.

Fonts look better on my non-retina display, what a relief!

Here as well. Much better 

Hasn't made its way to my machine yet, I just checked the App Store. 

Try the "Purchased" tab? 

Thank you, David, I am now downloading a 1.32GB file. Strange that it didn't hit my "Updates" tab.

That's the file (1.32GB). Good to hear the workaround worked for you. 

Hopefully no more 2 regions playing together on same track from /flex/x-fade/ chopping!

Good news re fonts.Still not loving scissor tool..

• Dragged regions no longer move to incorrect positions in certain rare cases on macOS Sierra.
  

Finally.. It's like having my ears need to pop and they finally do... relief!!!

Now, if they would just give me "replace and allow overlap"  in the MIDI record preferences all would be well with the world.... 

Looks a lot better too.

Well done Cuperteam. So much faith in Apple because of their faith in this team.

Everything working so nicely now - fonts, scissors, mute. Thank you!

Sadly, I'm still getting the following bug.

Well done Cuperteam. 

First time I hear that term. My guess is, a term of endearment could be... buttercup-er-team? 

The performance issues I have since Apple introduced Logic's newly designed GUI still exist after updating to 10.3.1.

LPX 10.3 input monitoring crackling caused by graphics

This forces me to run Logic in low resolution - the only benefit I get from 10.3.1 is that Logic doesn't look THAT crappy anymore in low resolution (but still quite bad). My assumption is that the integrated Intel Iris GPU has massive problems with Logic's new GUI.

The performance issues I have since Apple introduced Logic's newly designed GUI still exist after updating to 10.3.1.

Is this a known issue?? I just bought a new (Iris 5200) MacBook Pro for Logic...

I don't know if or how many other users are having the same problem. Even when I just click into the tracks area with the cursor I hear crackling when input monitoring is activated. Every single movement or even the slightest change within the tracks area creates crackles and pops. I see the 8th core spiking on the meter as soon as I do something within the tracks area. 

I already routed the input monitoring through a bus and put the amp sim on that bus instead directly on the channel. No success. The 8th core is still spiking heavily. 

I didn't have this problem before 10.3 so I assume the new GUI is causing this.

I just uploaded a short screen capture video in youtube (sorry, without sound, it’s just a screen capture video made with quicktime) that demonstrates the issue. The CPU meter is spiking heavily every time I click into the tracks area or scroll vertically/horizontally. The CPU spikes cause terrible audio crackling and pops. 

UNBELIVABLE ¡¡ this BUG has not been FIXED YEt .. ¡

Audio Regions moving when cutting [bUG]

viewtopic.php?f=42&t=119464&p=664065#p664065

should I even Try AGAIN ... and AGAIN to send a Feedback to Apple Logic Pro X team ??

or I should not even Bother anymore ????????????????? .

can some else besides me can send this BUG report to apple please.. ??

I had send the this Bug like 50 times.

not FIXED.

Logic Pro X (10.0.0) was release in 2013.

4 years later this bug.. lives inside Every single project you create in logic. 4 years ¡ unbelievable maybe my grandsons won't have it . ha.

Best fix ever: 

Names of Aliases are again displayed with an italic font.

I was so confused when this changed in 10.3.0 

Has anyone else noticed that:

• Menu: Help>Logic Pro Help
  
• Opens LPX 10.2.3 Help Content i.e. https://help.apple.com/logicpro/mac/10.2.3/index.html

Maybe they had to rush this out the door because of the security issues?

BTW I really wish the Logic team was allowed to do public betas like the OS teams, IMHO it would set the right expectations with end users.

I have the same problem since 10.3 - although I don't use input monitoring at all. When I scroll the track list in arrange while doing playback, I get crackling. Didn't have that before 10.3.
