Logic Pro 13 – Professional Music Production DAW for Mac

Logic Pro 13 Mac is Apple’s new flagship digital audio workstation, released on November 5, 2026. Logic Pro 13.0 gives Mac producers a complete professional studio in one app: record, write, arrange, mix and master music with a redesigned Liquid Glass interface, a unified browser, an enhanced Stem Splitter and the new Play Surface — all built for Apple silicon.

Whether you are producing pop, hip-hop, EDM, film scores or rock, Logic Pro 13 Mac keeps your whole workflow in one place. Its huge library of instruments, Apple Loops and studio effects helps you start tracks fast, while deep editing, mixing and mastering tools give you full control over the finished sound, from the first sketch to the final master.

Please note: the AI Intelligent Assistant (beta) is not included in the one-time purchase version of Logic Pro 13. The AI Intelligent Assistant (beta) requires an Apple Creator Studio subscription, an Apple silicon Mac and macOS 27. If you buy the one-time purchase version, you get Logic Pro 13.0 itself — including the Liquid Glass design, unified browser, enhanced Stem Splitter and Play Surface — but not the AI Intelligent Assistant (beta).

What’s New in Logic Pro 13 Mac

• Liquid Glass design: a fresh, translucent new look across Logic Pro 13 that keeps your music front and centre while making the interface feel lighter and more modern.
• Unified browser: sounds, loops, plug-ins and presets now live in one streamlined browser, so you can find the right sound quickly and stay in your creative flow.
• Enhanced Stem Splitter: split a mixed track into separate stems, now with drum kit-piece separation — isolate kick, snare, hi-hats and other drum pieces from a drum recording or mix.
• Play Surface: a new performance-style surface for playing and shaping your music in real time, turning Logic Pro 13 into a hands-on instrument as well as a studio.
