Yo no me actualizaría todavía, para mí las principales mejoras que ha tenido esta actualización han sido las orientas a la grabación de audio (por Flex) y al procesado de guitarras (amplis y pedales). También es cierto que a veces paso los sintes por el simulador de amplis, pero con el antiguo simulador sobra.
Flex Time puede serte útil si trabajas mucho con samples que necesitas cuadrar al tempo y Mainstage ha mejorado (no lo he usado, para directos utilizo Live), pero poco más. Espérate a Logic 10.

Juzga por ti mismo, a mi si que me merece la pena:
