  • Logic Pro loops disappear when I re-index?

    I'm trying to delete some of the loops in logic to save some space on my SSD as I know I will never touch some of then.
    However I located them in finder and moved them to the trash, but when I try and re-index my loops library, I enter my password and the Logic Index goes blank, as if to say their are no loops, until I restart Logic Pro 9 then they all re-appear (Inclkuding the ones I have deleted using finder)
    Why can I not re-index my loops without losing them all?

    Hi iamtherealmungo,
    I'm not sure if you have tried these specific steps but here is an article with instructions on rebuilding the index that I thought might be helpful:

  • Logic pro.app dissapeared/vanished

    I am running OS X 10.6  and Logic Pro 9.0.0  and logic pro.app seems to have suddenly dissapeared.  there's only logic node and soundtrack pro in the applications folder, and i cannot find it anywhere on the computer.  Logic was working fine 2 days ago... what's happening?  has anyone else had this problem?  it's just gone from the computer, could something have gotten screwed up in an update?

    There's not enough information in your post to diagnose the  problem, but there are a few possibilities that come to mind:
    You inadvertently trashed the application. Check your trash to see whether it's in there. If you've emptied your trash while it was in there, then it's gone, and you'll need to reinstall the application.
    You dragged the application to another folder without realizing it. Have you searched for it using the Finder?
    You accidentally renamed the application. It that's what happened, it should still be in your Applications folder, but you'll have to try to identify it by its icon. If there's an application with Logic's icon, a different name, and a file size of 605.3 MB (the size of Logic Pro v9.1.7 on my Mac Pro), then you've found it.
    I suppose it's also possible that it somehow made its way into an invisible folder, in which case Spotlight wouldn't index it and the Finder wouldn't locate it with a search. However, that seems highly unlikely. You have to have your (normally) invisible folders showing to have dragged it in there, and in any case most of them are write-protected, so you wouldn't be able to add anything to their contents without the system prompting you for your administrator password.
    You could try using the Finder to search for all applications. That will bring up a huge list, so you'll have to go through the items one by one. If the filename was changed, you'll be looking for Logic's icon. You can try sorting the search results in list view by file size, but Finder's impoverished features might not actually sort them for you.
    Good luck.

  • I can't find converted apple loops in the loop browser within Logic pro 7

    Hello There.
    I've cereated some apple loops with the apple loops utility. unfortunately I am unable to find them in the loop browser within Logic pro 7.2.1.
    I've scaned them using the project manager " so Logic knows about them"
    but still didn't reflect in the loop browser.
    Is this the normal behavior or what am I doing wrong.
    I hope I am doing something wrong, as to me the main feature of the loop browser is to be able to audition the loops quckly at the song tempo.
    Thanks a lot in advance
    Cheers
    P.S searched in the Forum but the answers arn't very clear
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   1.67 Mhz 2gig Ram

    Just drop them on the Loop Browser and the rest should be taken care of.

  • Does anyone use MIDI loops in Logic Pro to compose music?

    Seriously, if anyone out there uses the MIDI loops to compose music in Logic, how the heck do you do it? Especially if you are also using audio loops, it seems almost impossible to me. The chord transpositions that you get from the chord track are not even to the right pitch, and the transposition behavior is different according to whether you drag the loops into the arrange area before or after putting the changes in the Chord track. The signature track is no better, as it doesn't seem to affect audio loops. So how do you get the bass loops etc. to play in the keys you want them to without going through extraordinary contortions? I looked at one of the Logic Pro books, and it said to transpose by using the transpose function in the inspector, but that only lets you transpose by octaves! Do you really go in and edit the loops by hand to transpose each note?
    Any pointers on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Put the mouse pointer on top of the transpose number, which is zero, hold down the left mouse button and drag up or down to transpose by steps. At the beginning of either the getting started or Logic manual there's an explanation of the different types of mouse/key behavior, if you're not used to using Logic it's a good idea to go over these.
    Also, Logic does not always use simplified Mac conventions (thank the stars for that), as a result you have a lot more variety of data input, it varies according to the task at hand.

  • Logic Pro, Apple Loops, and Restoring from Time Machine

    I recently had to restore my Mac from a Time Machine backup, and like most things touched by Apple, the restoration worked flawlessly for all my stuff, with a few exceptions. Some 3rd party apps I use had problems with file permissions but most of it was quickly sorted out in under half an hour.
    However, Logic Pro refuses to see the Apple Loops I have installed on my system. My Loops are stored in two folders at the following locations:
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/Apple Loops for Soundtrack/
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/Apple Loops for Soundtrack Pro/
    GarageBand has no problem seeing these, but Logic Pro can't find them, and won't let me show it where they are. The Apple Loop Utility found them alright, although I did have to show it where the files were kept. Any idea what's wrong?

    You may need to rebuild the loops index.
    Open up Logic and display the Loops Browser
    Open up FInder and locate the folder containing the loops as you describe
    Drag the loops folders onto the Loops Browser
    That will rebuild the index and all should be well.

  • Logic pro 8 loops in garageband 3

    I cannot get most of the loops shown in garageband 3 to play. These are new loops since I installed Logic pro 8. The loops are not greyed out but they will not play. Also since installing Logic pro, I no longer have a jazz kit in Garageband. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Glenn Parsons

  • Can I open Remix Tools 2 in Logic Pro's Loop Browser?

    I have no problem opening up GarageBand's Jam Pack Remix Tools 2, but can only figure it out through "Import Audio File" and it's in the form of one extremely long list of files.
    Is there anyway to open up this Remix Tools 2 in the same fashion of opening up "Jam Pack Management" that came with Logic Pro when I bought it? That looks a lot more organized and I'd rather click on "beats" or "bass" versus scrolling down the listen of Remix Tools 2 in alphabetical order trying to find each "beat" or "bass" contained in every file.
    I'd like to open this up Remix Tools 2 through "Audio" -> "Loop Browser" but don't understand the means to get it there or if it is possible even. Any help would be grateful.

    Wait, so how do I delete this thread? My question was answered in a previous thread (although from when I read it I didn't understand what it meant at the time).

  • Logic Pro X crashes every time I try to add to loop library???

    Logic pro x 10.0.2
    Mac book pro
    Retina, Mid 2012
    Processor  2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    I have been using logic pro x for over a year now and have recently started creating my own apple loops. I am in the process of adding a big library of loops I have created to the loop library. Logic crashes every second time I try to add to loop library. For instance, I will open logic, open one of my aiff files, right click the region and select add to loop library. The first one will go through fine. Then I will proceed to delete the region, open the next aiff file, right click the region and select "add to loop library". As soon as I do this the program crashes without fail. Then I have to open logic again, select open "auto saved" and go through this cycle every time.
    PLEASE HELP!!!

    I had problems getting it to accept .dv files from imovie. I batch converted all of them with MPEG Streamclip to .mov files. That helped.

    Hi Planty209,
    If reindexing then loops didn't work then try reindexing spotlight itself...
    Spotlight: How to re-index folders or volumes
    Reindex your system drive... Be aware, it can take some time to complete (depending on how much data is on your system drive) so be patient....
    Usually this fixes things.....
    Note: if that doesn't fix things... I don't think its actually a Mavericks issue but more likely a cache or plist issue of some kind...

  • Do you have to add effects to Logic Pro X loops when mixing a song?

    Hi everyone,
    I have a question that has been puzzling me and I cannot seem to find an answer for! I have searched high and low on the internet and still cannot find the answer and so I would be grateful to everyones help with this issue.
    My question is that you hear so much about the fact that when you are recording and mixing a track that different instruments for example the Bass Drum and the Bass guitar occupy similar frequencies and we are told that this is why you have to add effects to these instruments when mixing but what I want to know is are they talking about just organic instruments like real drums and a real bass guitar that you manually play and record to Logic Pro X`s audio tracks? Or should you treat the Loops exactly the same? And should you also add effects to the Logic Pro X loops when you are mixing those specific tracks?
    For example if I add a Drum Loop or Bass Loop to a project and then start mixing the song should I add any effects for example EQ, Compression to these Loops? And what would be the best effects to add to the Bass and the Drums when mixing to help them stand out in the mix?
    Many thanks.

    Whoever told you that overly generalized rule, please stop listening to that person .
    The way you post your question (and they are good questions) points out a big problem nowadays. There is so much cookie cutter solutions out there like if you have this, then use that, if you want to get this sound, press that button. The problem with that is that you you often have no idea why you are doing that in the first place.
    Let me give you a simple example about gardening (sorry about that). If I grow tomatoes and look up on the internet how often to water them, I can find an answer "water the tomatoes once a week". I might do that and result is that the tomatoes will die. What I didn't take into account is that the advice was given from someone growing tomatoes in Russia, and I live in California where I might need to water them once a day. So, the answer you are looking for is not "how often to water the tomato", instead you have to learn how much water, depending on your climate, the tomato needs"
    Your music is the tomato. So the question is not what button to press (how often to water), but what button needs to be pressed, depending on your specific recordings (your climate).
    If your bass drum and and bass guitar are more further apart frequency wise, then there might be no need to EQ them, it depends
    Nobody should or could tell you what to do, unless he or she sits next to you at the mix and "hears' what is going on and what needs to be done.
    Don't get me wrong, I don't say that there is a lot of great advice and general guidelines out there. The problem is when you apply that blindly without knowing a little bit why that advice is give and how to apply that, or if it applies to your situation at all.
    In addition: The skills and knowledge about the theory is as important as the skills and experience of listening and judging your recording/mix and decide what action to take.You have to learn what to listen to and what you hear. If you don't know how distortion sounds then you miss out on fixing that issue. If you don't know how a pumping compressor sounds, then you miss out on fixing that issue.
    I think you get the idea
    Hope that helps

  • Can't load Logic Pro X loops.

    I can't get my Logic loops to appear in FCP X 10.1.1
    I have repeatedly opened Logic Pro X and FCP X and also trashed the preferences to no avail.
    Dragging the "Logic" folder to the FCP X music browser does no good as not even a + sign will appear.
    I'm desperate as I have a vital deadline in 5 minutes!

    OK I've got a result but it's left my Music and Sound browser looking very untidy.
    I couldn't get Logic to load itself and eventually had to drag my Apple Loops folder into the top part of the window (which I had forgotten existed as it was hidden) where it is now residing as a Folder, which can be deleted if I wish.
    Unfortunately there are a number of items listed such as Garageband and Logic etc. which are not folders but are empty and I cannot delete these.
    Is there any way of deleting items that are not actually Folders?
