    It's not the same UI but it offers nearly the same usage at an equally competitive price with free updates, casting Ableton aside at $1k with arguably one of the most hard to learn UIs to date.

    Comments about LMMS as an Alternative to Logic Pro
    Comment summary: LMMS is often criticized for lacking audio recording capabilities that Logic Pro offers, with many users finding it less functional despite its free availability and intuitive interface. While some comments praise LMMS for being free and having a user-friendly interface like FL Studio, others point out significant limitations, including the inability to handle audio formats, recording, and limited features, making Logic Pro a more complete and easier-to-use option.

    Easy interface like FL studio and free!

    A fundamentally broken DAW with a good interface. Probably the most intuitive DAW, locked to a garbage overpriced platform, and that deletes random files between sessions.

    3/10 kind of usable sometimes but mostly broken

    While it's possible to edit audio files on LMMS, it's NOT possible to record directly into it, making it differ from the style of Logic Pro X
