It looks like a good update, but I'm starting to give up hope on seeing ARA2 as a feature... :-(

Something that wasn't a problem for $200 Logic Pro or even $60 Reaper (with their two-person dev team).

What is ARA2?

Following on from the link of the other poster, the Random Access part allows plugins like Melodyne to "see" all the audio data that's on the track all at once, without you having to transfer it inside the plugin manually. You just start working with it seamlessly in an edit window. It's a neat idea.

I am consistently pleasantly surprised by the way Apple consistently updates Logic with only more and more layers of impressive features. ARA2 support was fantastic - so was their buyout of Camel's Alchemy.

Alchemy alone added a ton of value to Logic, and it came as a .x upgrade. Fantastic.

EDIT: One of the only selling points of an iPad I can think of is using it on a stand with Logic Remote as an actual digital mixing window. The experience is unparalleled.
