The short version

  • Only Logic Pro has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Logic Pro requires macOS 15.6 or later and a Mac with Apple silicon, so it will not run on an Intel Mac or on Windows at all; Midjourney subscription tiers as captured 29 December 2023 ranged from $10/month (3.3 Fast GPU hours) to $120/month (60 Fast GPU hours), with extra GPU time at $4/hour, and companies earning over $1,000,000/year in gross revenue were required to use the Pro plan
