Fans of Apple’s music production suite, Logic Studio, are being offered a free update that improves the overall stability of Logic Pro and Logic Express, while addressing some known issues with the software.

Logic Pro 9.1.7 improves overall stability and addresses some minor issues, Apple says.

These include several issues related to the download and installation of content, and compatibility problems with GarageBand for iOS projects.

The update also addresses a problem that produced an error message when editing fades on numerous regions, according to the change log.

Logic Express 9.1.7 is offered with a nearly identical set of release notes, though the individual updates differ on a larger scale.

The full Logic Pro / Express 9.1.7 change logs are offered in dedicated support pieces on Apple’s website.

Express includes everything that the Pro update delivers, whereas the Pro update contains some exclusive tweaks for its users. The entire set of changes applying to both versions of the software can be found below, followed by download links to their respective binaries.
