first of all, i'm new here, so hi to everyone!

recently i opened up a song i made with garageband in logic pro. since i am making the switch to logic, i wanted to see how the two compare (everyone says they are similar, with logic being the "performance-enhanced" version). my initial reaction upon playback is that the song has so much more warmth in logic than in garageband. in GB it sounds like it was recorded ITB, but with logic the same song sounds like it was recorded on a good analog system. is this possible or are my ears playing tricks on me? and if i bounce the track from logic will it sound the same way? i'm asking because i'm having a hard time believing my ears. lol

generally speaking that is a sign of poor software clocking and poorly executing code.

I agree, I more attributed it to the fact that Garageband was entry level and not as good as Logic, which painted a more accurate picture. Still, that's not to say that there are not those who think that Logic sounds different from Cubase which sounds different from ProTools.
