Apple, announcing the new Logic Pro X update, designed with the new Mac Pro in mind:

Making full use of the Mac Pro hardware, Logic Pro X 10.4.5 will now support up to 56 processing threads, allowing pro music producers and film composers to work through incredibly demanding music projects with unprecedented ease.

And:

With the new Mac Pro, Logic can now run up to five times the number of real-time plug-ins compared to the previous generation Mac Pro. Logic Pro X 10.4.5 increases the available track and channel count for all users, now supporting up to 1,000 audio tracks and 1,000 software instrument tracks, providing four times the number of available tracks for the most complex productions. Additionally, Logic Pro X now supports 1,000 auxiliary channel strips, 1,000 external MIDI tracks and 12 sends per channel strip. Users can also expect improved responsiveness of the Mixer and Event List when working with large sessions, and projects with numerous Flex Time edits and tempo changes perform more efficiently than ever.

Check the Jonathan Morrison video, which Shawn posted a few days ago. In it, you hear from a high level audio engineer, extolling the virtues of the new Mac Pro. Wondering if this new version of Logic Pro, combined with the new Mac Pro (when it ships), will replace competing apps in high end studios.

If you own Logic Pro, check for the update. It dropped this morning.
