   Logic Pro X 10.4

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Apple has released [1]Logic Pro X 10.4 with a number of new features
   and instruments added to the professional audio app. The update adds
   the Smart Tempo feature, which enables you to combine content together
   at the same tempo (regardless of the original tempo of each piece of
   music), and enables you to add any audio file and have it automatically
   conform to a project's tempo. It also brings a number of new plug-ins,
   including ChromaVerb (for creating rich acoustic spaces), Vintage EQ
   Collection (with three analog EQs originally from the 1950s to the
   1970s), and Retro Synth (with 18 filter models).

   Logic Pro X 10.4 also adds two Drummers (roots and jazz-influenced
   brush styles), two vintage brush kits for Drum Kit Designer, and more
   than 800 new loops in a variety of instruments and genres. Among the
   hundreds of other enhancements and improvements, the app also now
   enables you to undo mixer and plug-in actions, adds support for
   bookmarking locations in favorite Files Browser folders, adds a
   preference to toggle user interface animations on or off, brings four
   new options for the behavior of Replace mode when recording MIDI, and
   smooths out zooming with the Magic Mouse or Trackpad in the Audio File
   Editor. ($199.99 new in the [2]Mac App Store, free update, 1.4 GB,
   [3]release notes, 10.11+)
