Saving Logic Files in Directories

[Dirty NeEdLeZ]

Hi guys,

 

I've got a couple project folders on my desktop. These folders contain all the data necessary for my projects, (samples, project files, etc). Now, to optimize my HD data I want to transfer these to a different drive. My question is, When I re-open Logic and want to access that project, will Logic know to search the new drive? Or will it search the desktop for those files? If so, what do I need to do to make sure Logic points to the right place?

 

Many thanks.

Where are those projects and how were they saved? Did you include assets when saving them? What do those folders contain exactly: EXS24 sample libraries and instruments? Ultrabeat samples? What else...?

[Dirty NeEdLeZ]

It contains Audio Files, Undo Data, Project File Backups (I assume some of these folders were 'automagically' created by Logic), and some of my imported samples that I saved into the project folder.

 

The projects were saved as Logic project files - unsure of the ext. They are sitting in the desktop folder for that particular project. In terms of including assets, I assume that is the related samples, libraries, exs intruments? One of them has them, the other doesn't.

 

Thanks

Open the project in Logic, and choose File > Save As. Then simply save the project, including assets, on the new drive. Once that's done, you can delete the old project folders. Be careful, of course, before you delete anything.

You have a way of making everything sound really easy. Here I thought I was gonna corrupt everything. Thanks mate! I've got another question too, will put it up soon.
