space Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Got my Mac Studio recently plus Logic - all good - I'm coming from OSX Lion, a lot of has changed. I had lots of user created presets saved for Logic's own plug-ins/synths - but where do they go on MacOS? Is it Music > Audio Music Apps > Plug-In Settings? I know this is probably where they go but I don't wanna mess it up - as this folder was never there before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Atlas007 Posted September 30, 2022 Solution Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) IIRW: the user settings are in folder User / Music / Audio Music Apps /Plug-in Settings / ([plugin name] i.e ES2, Alchemy, etc). Additional subfolders are supported and will appear in the libraries if they contain at least one valid preset. EXS24 user presets could placed in the Sampler folder. I would suggest to copy your custom presets into specifically named folders (i.e.: LP9 presets) within each of the factory LPX’s plugin-named folders, so you could test each preset in regard of compatibility (although there should not be issues) or sound quality ( I found that some of the (factory and custom) presets sound a little different… Edited September 30, 2022 by Atlas007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx for the rectification! From the published documentation: Quote Sampler instrument storage locations To be visible in the Sampler plug-in Setting menu, instruments must be stored in the following folder locations: ~/Music/Audio Music Apps/Sampler Instruments: User-defined or edited instruments are stored here. ~/Music/Audio Music Apps/Sampler Instruments/AutoSampled: Instruments created with the Auto Sampler utility plug-in are stored here. /Library/Application Support/Logic/Sampler Instruments: Factory-supplied sampler instruments are installed here. …/ProjectName: Logic Pro also searches for sampler instruments in the project folder. Search by project is included for backward compatibility with existing projects. If you use the Save As (Project) command, old project files and folders are converted to project bundles. The original files are not changed. If you save a new project, sampler instruments and samples are saved with the project bundle. Note: You can store your sampler instruments in any folder on any connected hard disk. Create an alias pointing to this folder within a Sampler Instruments subfolder (using any of the paths listed), and they are shown in the Sampler plug-in Settings menu.

space Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 Thanks, works great - I set up a Logic 9 folder to make it organised. Next stop is to copy over NI presets. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
