Logic Pro 7.1 – Apple Loops (2005-0905) 6 of 23

Search Fields:

1 - Folder Location

This is a new search filed added in Logic 7.1.

First of all it is a great tool if you are working with a big Apple Loops library, but it needs a few enhancements. However, who came up with

that stupid label “Jam Pack Management”? It is completely misleading.

• This is the first of the three default search fields, which is always part of your search.

• The Apple Loop s search will be restricted to that specific

folder location, which you select from the popup menu.

• Selecting “Show All” searches all your indexed Apple Loop

Libraries

• The popup menu is dynamic, which means that it lists only items that apply.

o Show All: displays all Apple Loops on your system. (Default)

o My Loops: displays all Apple Loops in

“~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops/Single

Files

”. These are single Apple Loops you added to the Loop Browser

o Shared Loops on my Mac: display all Apple Loops in

“/Library/Audio/Apple Loops

”

o GarageBand: display all Apple Loops installed with the GarageBand application.

o Jam Pack x: display all Apple Loops from a specific Jam Pack installation

o Vendor x: display all Apple Loops from a installation of a specific third-party vendor

o Other: display all loops that you added to the loop library by dragging them onto the Loop

Browser

2 - Scale

• This is the second of the three default search fields which is always part of your search

• The Scale field is an Apple Loop tag and therefore stored in the Apple Loop file

• “Any” is the default, selected from the popup menu and means that the Scale tag can be “Major”, “Minor” or “Both”

• The entry “Neither” searches for Apple Loops with the Scale tag set to “Neither” which means no Key Matching

• The entry “Major”, “Minor” and “Good for Both” searches for Apple Loops with the Scale tag set exactly to that value

3 - Signature

• This is the third of the three default search fields which is always part of your search

• The Signature field is an Apple Loop tag and therefore stored in the Apple Loop file

• “4/4” is the default, selected from the popup menu

4 - Apple Loops Name

• Entering a phrase into the name box will search the actual file name of the Apple Loop.

• The search phrase is not case-sensitive. You can search only one phrase. Boolean search (AND, OR) is

not supported. The phrase is matched against any text string and down’t have to start with the word.

The Apple Loop “Pattern One” will be found with the search “

Patte”

, “

ern”I or “ rn oN”.

• This is the only search filed where you have to hit the <Enter> button to start the search

• Changing any other search field will clear the entry box (maybe bug?)

• Clicking on the magnifier symbol should popup a menu with previously entered phrases (doesn’t work,

maybe bug?)

• Right Click on the entry box opens the a standard OSX popup menu with commands for Spelling,

Spotlight, Dictionary, etc

5 - Genre – Instruments – Moods – Favorites

• These four search fields are combined in a special search area

• You can switch between the Column View display Matrix View with the View button

• “Genre”, “Instruments” and “Moods” are Apple Loop tags and stored in the actual Apple Loops file. Those

fields have a predefined value list, which means that you have to choose from a list and if the Genre “Polka” is not available, then you have to

select the one which describes the Genre the best.

• “Favorites” is not an Apple Loop tag. It is just a flag. That flag is stored in Logic’s preference file!

o All the Apple Loops which you mark (with the checkbox in the Result Pane), are stored with their actually path in the Logic plist file at

“

~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.plist”

o If you trash that preference file during maintenance then you loose all your Favorite flags. This is a serious design flaw from Logic,

because the preference files should contain only general settings, which you can rebuild. A long list of marked favorite Apple Loops,

which you compiled over the course of a few months from thousands of Loops, is not reproducible!!!

o Another trap: New Favorites flags are stored in RAM until you quit Logic. The Favorites will then be stored to the plist file. If Logic

crashes in between, then you loose the new Favorites.

• Columns View and Matrix view are not just different display option but they have also slightly different functionality regarding the search

The search filed 1 – 2 – 3 are always included in the search. To complete the search criteria and have the matching Apple Loops displayed in the Result

Pane, you have to add at least an entry in the search field 4 or one of the search fields 5

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 22 23
