Logic Pro preferences
Logic Pro preferences overview
In Logic Pro, you can define and modify preferences that apply to all projects. You do this in
the Preferences window. These preferences are automatically saved whenever you quit the
application. A general preference file, named com.apple.logic10.plist, is found in the ~/Library/
Preferences folder. A separate preference file for control surfaces, named com.apple.logic.pro.
cs, is stored in the same location. You can’t edit either file directly. Any changes must be made in
Logic Pro. If you delete a preference file, a new one is created the next time you open Logic Pro.
All preferences will be reset to their default values.
When Show Advanced Tools is selected in Advanced preferences, you can reset preferences
to their default values manually.
In some instances, you’ll see a button in the Preferences window that links to related settings
in the Project Settings window, and vice versa. Both the Preferences window and the Project
Settings window can be visible at the same time.
