Anyone tried importing Garageband projects into Logic Pro?

I have imported individual bounced tracks. You have to mute the other instruments, and when the file is bounced you can change the name to reflect the instrument.

import audio files to Logic.

Thanks. I've done that. But a sales rep (distributor) said you could import GB files straight into LP. Seems not.

However, the bounced audio method still works perfectly well in the meantime...

Thanks for your input

Cheers,

Andrew

He was wrong, also the Garage Band EXS instruments cannot be used with the EXS24mkII or EXSP24 because they contain effects setting that the Logic sample players don't support.

Rumor has it that Logic 7 will support Apple Loops.

It still would be good to be able to move someone's GarageBand projects straight into Logic the way you can work with LiveType projects directly in FinalCutProHD.

It would be nice, but that type of integration usually happens in pro apps.

Unless the instruments become compatible, I don't see the "pro" app supporting the consumer app.

As far as smaller grade apps being compatible with higher end pro apps, Digidesign does it with ProTools Free and LE being able to be imported into ProTools TDM. Sure, not the other way around, but there is a place for an entry level app to go into a pro app.

The "Logic" behind this is that those who string together something in the smaller app might make a great conceptual piece that can be re-fitted as a polished release. My wife is a singer songwriter and I am a producer. While she gets a little frustrated with GB's limitations, she Soooo isn't wanting to go near Logic. She just wants to drag a few loops around until she can make something with the timing and expression she wants to communicate. She loves te ease of GarageBand. She wants me to "get" her idea and then make it from there. There are times I would like to just drag her entire working project into Logic and build from there. Just like friends of mine who work in ProTools Free and take those little projects to another friend who uses LE who then has the flexibility to master in TDM.

So the little app into a Pro app is not without precedent.
