Apple has launched a new version of its Logic Pro music mixing software with an entire orchestra of features.


Available as of Tuesday, Logic Pro X sports a redesigned interface and more instruments and effects geared toward professional musicians. The new Drummer feature adds a virtual drummer that can play along with your song using a variety of drumming styles. Flex Pitch offers pitch editing for your songs. And the Logic Remote feature lets you control Logic Pro X directly from your iPad.


Apple has also beefed up its MainStage live performance app, which can bring studio-produced sounds to a live concert via your Mac. MainStage 3 provides a new interface and works with the plug-ins and controls in Logic Pro X.


"Logic Pro X is our most powerful version yet, with advanced tools and a modern new interface designed to streamline the process of creating professional quality music," Apple marketing chief Philip Schiller said in a statement. "Musicians are going to love creative new features like Drummer, Flex Pitch, Track Stacks and the Arpeggiator."


Musicians can buy and download Logic Pro X and MainStage 3 from the Mac App Store for $199.99 and $29.99, respectively. Logic Remote is a free download from the App Store for iOS devices.
