Transfer Logic settings

I have moved to a new computer and reinstalled all software. How can I transfer my personalised Logic settings from the previous computer? Particularly saved channel strip settings and saved instruments?

Move the contents of the ~/Music/Audio Music Apps folder to your new computer.

Do you know if the plugin folders that I have customized on one rig would move with that as well to another setup?

In theory you're not supposed to "move" plug-ins, which are applications. You're supposed to install them on the new machine, just like you would install an app. 

 

Now if you want to try you can copy your plug-in folders: 

 

/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/

 

AND

 

~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/

 

...to the new machine, and see what works and what doesn't. 

I just meant the Logic folder where you can move other AU plugins and organize them into one's own folder structure. I assume this is just done with aliases or something.  I don't want to actually move the plugins which does sound very dangerous to me!

That's contained in a single file: ~/Music/Audio Music Apps/Databases/Tags/MusicApps.tagpool

 

Feel free to move that file to any Mac where you wish to have the same plug-in hierarchy. 

Excellent. Thanks!

That doesn't work for me.

Has this changed?

I haven't tried this in a while, but sometimes the location where that kind of data is stored can change indeed.

I found a file in that location - but moving it didn’t transfer to the other machine.

What I meant is that even if the file is there, the data you want may no longer be stored in that file. With some updates, Logic changes where it stores certain data.

Got it. Thanks
