Overview of projects in Logic Pro for Mac
A project is a Logic Pro for Mac document that contains all of your recordings, the location of media files you add, and all the changes you make. You start working in Logic Pro for Mac by creating a project, or opening an existing project. You can have multiple projects open at the same time, and transfer media and other data between them.
Logic Pro for Mac projects are organized in a new way compared to earlier Logic Pro for Mac versions. Project assets (such as audio and video files, samples for the Sampler or Ultrabeat, and Space Designer reverb impulse response files) can be saved directly in the project, or in a separate project folder. As in earlier Logic Pro for Mac versions, assets can be referenced from a location outside the project, letting you access media files without copying or moving them into the project. You can manage project assets in a variety of ways.
Each project has project properties including tempo, key and time signature, and more. You can set project properties when you create a project, or later while you’re working. You can preview projects in the Finder using Quick Look, clean up and rename projects, and share data and settings between projects.
When Enable Complete Features is selected in Logic Pro for Mac > Settings > Advanced, you can save a project as either a single file (package) or as a project folder containing the project file and subfolders for project assets. You can also create and save project alternatives, each with a unique name and different settings, and access saved backups of a project.
