I have been involved with teaching and recording guitar for the past 10 years.When the first digital work stations came out such as the Roland VS-2480, our shop tried to use these units to record some of our student's and teacher's guitar playing.I was disappointed with the sound quality of these recordings and concluded that a lot of compression was being used/built in to these units to try and 'model' a warm analog sound. For certain situations, these digital workstations could be quite useful but for acoustic instruments, there was still a ways to go before a natural tone was captured within the digital realm.With true 24 bit digital recording now available through programs such as Logic Pro, there is a genuine opportunity to make digital recordings of acoustic instruments which sound 'analogue' to one's ear.I have managed to get some classical guitar recordings which have a great room sound, no distortion which have captured that nuances of tone colour that the classical guitar can offer. I have to admit that I have not gotten into the deeper levels of the Logic Pro program.I have been very focussed on acoustic recordings and want to share that the program is easy, intuitive to use, sound quality is fantastic/natural.

I did into some issues as I am not a 'Mac guy' and faced an 'update learning curve'.Mac's 10.4 update crashed my digital to audio converter etc.I highly recommend that one using Logic Pro not updated or if you do be very careful when doing so.
