Sharing Logic Express Data Over a Network
Logic Express allows you to share or back up your data over a network, making it easier
to collaborate on projects with other Logic Express users. This can be:
 Via a local network—using Bonjour.
 Over the Internet—using .Mac (requires a .Mac account).
You can share and back up the following data types:
 Plug-in settings
 Channel strip settings
 Key command Sets
Note: Due to potential licensing issues with sample libraries, you can not share EXS
instruments or Ultrabeat settings.
Setting Sharing Preferences
You use the Sharing preferences to define which settings you want to share, and to
back up your data on .Mac.
To open the Sharing preferences, do one of the following:
m Choose Logic Express > Preferences > Sharing
m Click the Preferences button in the Arrange Toolbar, then choose Sharing from the menu.
m Click the Action menu at the bottom of the Library and choose Sharing Preferences.
Sharing is essentially broken down into two tasks:
 Data Access: Browse your, or other user, data on a local network or a .Mac account.
 Data Sharing: Share your data over a local network or via a .Mac account.
You can access data shared on a .Mac account even when the user who provided the
data is not online.
When data is shared over a local network, the user who provided the data—or more
accurately, the computer (user account) that the shared data originated from—must be
online.
