If you do not import the ReCycle file as an Apple Loop or audio file, Logic Express will
create a ReCycle file folder on an audio track. This folder contains slices (you can view
them as miniature regions in the folder) of the ReCycle file at appropriate positions.

Each of these slices references the same audio file, which can be found in the Audio Bin.

Note: If you move the ReCycle file folder to another audio track, the audio channel strip
destination (of the track inside the folder) will not change accordingly! You will need to
open the folder and change the audio channel strip destination manually, to hear the
ReCycle audio data.

To convert a ReCycle file to an Apple Loop, do one of the following:

m

Use the Render to Apple Loop option in the ReCycle file import dialog.

m

Choose the Convert ReCycle Files/Folders to Apple Loops command in the Browser’s
Tool menu.

The latter option allows you to choose one or more folders in the Browser, and perform
a batch conversion on all ReCycle files contained in them.
