154 Chapter 7 Working With Projects
Consolidating Project Settings
If your project contains files that are not in the correct sub-folders within the project
folder, you can use the Consolidate command to automatically organize them into the
standardized project file structure.
To consolidate your project:
1 Choose File > Project > Consolidate (or use the Consolidate Project key command).
2 Choose the desired menu option for the different file types in the Consolidate dialog,
to either move, leave, or copy the existing files.
The two shortcut buttons at the lower left of the window make project consolidation
quick and easy.
 Click Copy All to set all menus to the copy option.
 Click Move All to set all menus to the move option.
3 Activate the “Delete empty folders after moving” checkbox to remove the empty
folders in the source project, after files have been moved to the target project.
4 Activate the “Create folders for audio file groups” checkbox to creates group folders
within the Audio Files sub-folder of the target project.
The groups must first be created in the Audio Bin of the source project. See “ Grouping
Files in the Audio Bin ” on page 561.
5 Press OK, when you’re done.
ReCycle Import Handling in Projects
EXS instruments created via a ReCycle import are placed in a Sampler Instruments/
ReCycle sub-folder of the project folder. All audio data generated by a ReCycle import is
placed in the ReCycle Audio folder, alongside the project file.
Note: This happens automatically and can’t be changed. If no project folder exists,
ReCycle files are saved in ~Music/Logic/ReCycle Audio.
