Also, I was getting hard crashes again, Logic simply disappears. Also, there was some strange graphic things, like plugins still showing after being removed from the mixer - when two tracks of the identical strip were showing,in the mixer. Freezing tracks for the first time in a long time as a result and this clears up the errors (like object nested too deep errors, even though I don’t have folder within folders, so who knows why?). What I did find is that this version fell down faster then 10.4.4 runnning a simple template with basic stuff in it, stuff that hit the cpu hard however. Take this preceeding with a healthy grain of salt. This is maybe related only specifically to graphics and the mixer, but I for one, am not entirely sure.

In the innards, there seems to be evidence that some quick shortcuts were taken that will possibly be corrected in a newer release, for example, cpu drawn graphics hard coded rather then the usual plist file pointing to graphic files. Gui mod people are reporting that there’s a new way in which the mixer graphics are dealt with, and possibly this version is a ‘quick get it out there so we can show people Logic has 1000 tracks of audio running at the show’. Was the first full on day with 10.4.5, I may need to trash prefs etc but here’s what I found.
