Relocate additional content in Logic Pro x?

What do you do if you don't want additional content stored on your system drive?

Hi, darae, you may want to have a look here:
http://music.tutsplus.com/articles/how-and-why-to-move-your-logic-pro-x-sound-li braries-to-an-external-drive--audio-19567
……explains it all very well what you want. A little advice still………don't do it, if you're not fully aware of the consequences and have plan B ready beforehand, so you can go back to the original state relatively easy if need be!
Have a nice day!

  • Do I need to download the additional content of Logic Pro X every time I install it on each of my computers?

    Do I need to download the additional content of Logic Pro X every time I install it on each of my computers?

    A poster in the following thread gives a direct download link to the installer package:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/22495063#22495063
    ...if that works and Logic Pro X recognises that it's been installed at startup, then clearly you can just download it the one time and manually install it on each computer. Unfortunately the App Store doesn't appear to provide a way to export and subsequently authorise installation archives for downloaded applications, though, so you'll still have to download the 600-odd-MB core of Logic via the App Store on each machine.

    Thanks rhoydotp,
    The download was actually the successful part!  I had no issues with it timing out or anything.  My problem was the actual install, after the download was complete.  The installer just stopped about a quarter of the way up on "Alternative Kits" and never made it to any of the other kits.  I think I'll try installing them one at a time like you said, and see what happens.  Hopefully it works!

  • Can't download additional content in logic pro 9

    I just recently purchased logic pro 9 and wanted to use the indie live kit. i found out that the indie live kit was missing and that all i needed to do was to download the additional content in logic. when i clicked download everything would download but at the end it would say failed to complete download. all i want is the indie live kit so if anyone knows how to do this it would be a big help:)

    What version of Logic Pro 9 are you running? I ask because the latest version 9.1.8, has a fix for one version of this issue... that affected some people.. but not all by a long way.
    Other than that possibility.. there is another reason found, that can cause this..
    Quite a few of these problems with downloading the additional content (once Apple fixed another issue relating to this in 9.1.8 ) have been found to be caused by the user's ISP limiting the max size of any given single file being downloaded.... causing the Download file to 'timeout' or 'end' before downloading was complete. BT in the UK.... and Comcast, Time Warner and Verizon FIOS in the USA have all be reported as placing this limitation on some users accounts.. (and there are probably more ISPs that do this.. to apparently "prevent large download abuse.. " (whatever that might mean??)) and a call to them, asking for the max limit to be raised to at least 8GB has resolved this issue for everyone who has tried,...
    Note: It did take a couple of Users... several tries to get through to the 'right' knowledgable support person, to get this issue fixed... normally only after their issue was raised with a Tier 2 tech... as the Tier 1 techs didn't know about the limits imposed on certain users and certain accounts..
    An example of this can be found in the last post in this thread...

  • Can't install some parts of the additional content in Logic Pro X

    Hi,
    I've tried to install the Piano path and the Stereo Drum Kits from the additional content for more than a few times now without any luck. Every time the download is completed and the installation process begins I get an error message after a short time saying: "Logic Pro X was not able to complete the download". Note that this is after the download is completed. All the other downloads I've made from the additional content works great and I've got lots of space on the hard drive. What do you guys think I should do? Starting over with the download again and again doesn't seem to do the job.
    / Emil

    Just click loops , on the top of the panel click loops, and select "reindex all loops".

  • How to download additional content for Logic Pro 9

    Hey everyone,
    I have just purchased Logic Pro 9 and I was downloading all of the Jam Packs available.  However, I downloaded most of the Jam Packs until I was forced to restart my computer.  Now, I have three Jam Packs left that have not downloaded and I was wondering how do I get back to the screen that tells me which ones I have yet to download?  I have searched through the application and have yet to find it.  Can someone please help me out?
    Lots of thanks!
    Brian M.

    Here's a way to download the additional content and save it somewhere so you don't need to download it again:

  • Can you uninstall additional contents in Logic Pro X?

    Hi all
    I have just purchased Logic Pro X and after the installation, it asked me if I want to download any additional contents which total is close to 40GB.
    I was wondering since that's a lot of space, would I be able to uninstall the sounds later if I don't like them?
    Thanks

    Hi
    Sure, if you really want to.
    The largest folders of files are in Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:Logic
    Drum Kit Designer has around 21G.

  • How to relocate additional content files?

    Hello.
    I have a MacBook Pro 15" late 2011. Mac OS 10.8.2 is installed on the 128 Gb SSD drive, and my "Home" directory and all files needed for my work, I placed on 1TB HDD in OptiBay.
    I have a problem with Logic Pro 9.1.8 Installation process.
    Can I install additional content from Logic Pro to HDD or relocate content files after installation? I'm using many "heavy" software and plug-ins in my work, and very important to me how much free space is left on the system drive.

    Thanks for the quick reply.

    Hi
    The download installers will not let you install anywhere except the OS drive.
    Whilst you could move *most* of the content to another drive, it is probably easiest to start with the AppleLoops themselves:
    Library:Audio:Apple Loops:Apple.
    When you move them, you will need to re-index the Loop Browser: simply drag the new (moved) folders in the Finder on top of the Loop Browser in Logic.
    It might be best to leave the 'basic' Garageband loops where they are.
    If you need to make even more room on your boot drive, you could think about moving the JamPack sampler instruments (around 14G), but this could cause some issues with the EXS not finding the samples in  their new location. Similarly, you could move the Factory EXS samples (4G), with the same caveat.

    Reindex database happen automatically? Will there files be duplicated?

    Hi!
    Do you run automap 4.8/4.9? If so, then the chance is that automap is the culprit for slow undos/redos on LPX 10.1. Delete the Novation controller in the LPX controller surfaces. You find it under preferences/controller surfaces. If that is the solution for you, then uninstall automap. You find the uninstaller under applications-automap.
    Good luck!

  • Not able to download all Audio Contents from Logic Pro 9

    Hi!
    I want to download the sound libraries that come with Logic Pro 9 (I know I am a little bit late). The most Jam Packs are already downloaded and installed but I have problems with downloading of one of the packages, the additional Sounds for Logic and Mainstage. The download interrupts when it has already loaded 1,7GB (see pictures below).
    How can I download the package? The most Instruments are not working without it...
    I hope you can help me

    I totally agree but for whatever reason they don't at the moment....
    I just read that apple is providing updated printer driver packages sometimes (they just released packages for samsung, canon, gestedner etc.) so it seems they do take care about these issues.

  • Logic Pro X Downloading additional content issue

    Hello
    After several tries I still have not completed a download of additional content.
    There is 28.6 GB of content and it has always hung up around 26.5 most annoying, and can't be very good for the bandwidth out of your servers, if I download over 100 GB and fail overtime..
    I routinely download relatively large content files so this really seems strange, could it be the content should be divided up into smaller packages?

    OKay Never Mind I got all the Additional Content... perhaps it was an internet connection problem... I Used Mainstage 3 to get all additional content and Logic pro X reindexed and understood that everything was downloaded and installed...
    No More messages when I start Logic about unfinished downloads when I launch it...
    Everything seems to be working fine now...
    Also I had some Very Old Garage Band Jam Packs which apparently were incomplete... so I deleted all the Old Jam Packs and deleted all the indexing files from 2 locations App Support/Garage Band and App Supprort/Apple
    so now Garageband and Logic Pro X 7 Main Stage know where all the Jam Packs are.... See other posts that explain this in detail i.e. Garage Band Community.

  • How to Delete Logic Pro X Additional Content

    Is there Anyone out there who knows how to delete the additional content on Logic pro X once it has been installed.
    These are the following things I have tried:
    I have tried uninstalling Logic pro X - No result - The space the additional content took up is still taken up. (by what I don't know)
    I have read every possible article on the matter - Still No Result -
    I have tried using AppCleaner to delete Logic Pro X - No Result - Logic pro X is deleted but the additional content still remains.
    I even went as far as using my time machine to back up the information on my laptop - to see if it would back up the 50GB worth of date - Guess what - It did back it up. but its no where to be found on my HD.
    The additional content takes up 50GB+ worth of space and for some reason won't GO AWAY!!!
    SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!!

    I have read every possible article on the matter - Still No Result -
    A simple google search for " Where is Logic Pro's additional content stored " brought up the info almost instantly.....
    The content is stored in multiple locations...
    Where is Logic pro additional content stored?
