Apple prefers AutoSampler for MainStage over Logic Pro X

I’ve been waiting for Redmatica<->Logic Pro X to start feeding into eachother for so long. Wanted an EXS24MKIII or maybe an AutoSampler.

Well, LPX10.1 didn’t provide it, but gave a lot of other goodies. Good.

But what’s this? Apple released MainStage, and IT has an AutoSampler device? I have no words.

“Auto sampling. More instruments, made simple. Auto Sampler quickly and easily transforms your hardware synths into sampled instruments that you can play from your Mac. Your keyboard rig just got a whole lot simpler to set up and manage.”

Boo! Hiss! I mean, cool for MainStage users but what about us poor LPx users?
