In 2015, Logic Pro updated to version 10.2.0. This was a substantial update that added numerous features, bug fixes and more. Arguably, however, the most significant addition was that of the Alchemy software synthesiser.
Alchemy was already a thing, having been developed by Camel Audio and sold as a cross-platform VSTi. Presumably, Apple acquired it, gave it a cosmetic overhaul and incorporated it into Logic Pro as a stock software instrument. Frankly, this was a major coup, as it gave Logic Pro an extremely powerful edge over competitors, as it’s uncommon to have such a powerful VST instrument bundled with a DAW, let alone one as cost-effective as Logic Pro.
