Preinstalled on every Mac, GarageBand is one of the most popular music creation apps in the world. Maybe you’ve been using it for a while now, and you’re starting to run up against its limitations. Or you may be wondering if jumping over to its bigger brother, Logic Pro, would be worth the price of admission.

Booker starts the course by explaining how to easily import your GarageBand projects into Logic Pro, and how Logic’s interface is both different and similar to GarageBand’s. Next, he dives into the powerful pro features Logic has to offer. He explores the advantages you get from using Logic’s synths and effects, the flexible ways you can edit your drum performances, the fully-featured mixer, MIDI FX, and more.

As a bonus, the course closes by switching everything in reverse gear by explaining how to take a Logic Pro project back to GarageBand for iOS, and why you would want to do such a thing.
