How to downgrade Logic Pro 13 to an earlier version

Logic Pro 13 is absolutely awful! It feels unfinished, and the terrible dark, high-contrast design causes severe eye strain. It's impossible to work with. I was happy with 12.4. How can I downgrade? The App Store offers no such option.

Hi


The AppStore will only allow you to download the latest version compatible with your macOS, so if you have installed LP13, you won't be able to re-download Logic 12 on that Mac.


Hopefully, you kept a zipped version of the old app, or a Time Machine backup?
