Logic Pro 7.1 – File Management (2005-0904) 2 of 9

Instructions for a Project Song

• The parent directory of the Project Song is considered its Project Folder

• Media files, used in the Project Song will be copied into the Project Folder and then referenced.

• A subfolder for each media type will be created inside the Project Folder. The “

Audio Files”

folder

gets created together with the Project Song, the other folders gets created when needed.

o Audio Files

o Impulse Responses

o Sampler Instruments

o Samples

• The Project Settings define which media files are copied and which ones staying in their original

location. The settings are established when you create a Project Song with the “

File > New

”

command and can later be changed from the “

File > Project > Settings”

• Two additional media file types which, are not automatically copied to the Project Folder, can be

copied with a separate command; “

Consolidate

” or “

Save as Project

”. A separate subfolder will also

be created:

o Movie Files

o Ultrabeat Samples

• A “Song Backup” folder inside the Project Folder will be created for storing the backup files based on the “Audio Backup” feature, setup in

“

File > Preferences >Global > Song Handling> Auto Backup”

NOTE:

The instructions are stored with the song file. This means when you are in the Finder and move or copy a Project Song out of its Project Folder

to a new different folder, then that folder becomes its new Project Folder, because the Project Folder is not stored as a specific folder with a

folder name but only the function of a “parent directory”. In other words the folder in which a Project Song is located is per definition its Project

Folder. When you open a Project Song that you have copied or moved in the Finder and drag more media files into it, then these files will be

copied into subfolder of the new parent directory. All the pathname references to the original Project Folder still exist, but it is advised that you

do a “Consolidate” command to get all your media files back under one “umbrella”.

Regular Song

Project Song

Media Files

Leave the media files in their original location

and store only the pathname as a reference

Copy the media files first to the Project Folder (based on the

Settings) and then store the pathname as a reference.

When you drag media files into your song, then audio files will be

copied right away, where other media files will be copied the next

time you save your song.

Auto Backup

Save a backup file into a folder with the same

name as the song but with an extension “.bak”

Save the backup file into a folder called “Song Backup” inside the

Project Folder

You can see in the “

File > Project”

menu if a loaded song is actually a Regular Song or Project Song:

Because in a Regular Song all the media files stay in their original location, there are no settings necessary which determine which media files get

copied to the Project Folder

“

File > Project

” menu

Project Song Settings

The instructions for the Project Song tells Logic to copy the media files to the Project Folder. In the Project Settings you can decide which media files

are affected by this instructions. You can change the settings any time.

Activate/De-Activate the commands with their checkboxes:

• Copy external audio files to project folder

• Convert audio file sample rate when importing

• Copy EXS instruments to project folder

• Copy EXS samples to project folder

• Copy impulse responses to project folder: for the Space Designer)

Technically you could uncheck all the options and the Project Song would treat media files like a Regular Song: leave the media file at their location.

(The Audio Files folder gets created in the Project Folder even if you uncheck that copy option)

Movie files and Ultrabeat files will not be copied when opened in a Project Song. You have to use the “

Consolidate”

or “

Save as Project”

command if you

want to include them in the project folder.
