But, this is a completely new version. I didn’t have a complex autoload, but what I ended up doing is starting from scratch with Logic 8 since it’s much easier to create new instruments and channels when they’re needed. I have a new autoload built with Logic 8 (they’re called templates now.)
As for key commands, those should transfer with your Logic 7 autoload fine (and then you can save them to a dedicated key command file) – but you may want to gloss through them to make sure they’re what you want. Apple changed some things in the 8.02 to avoid conflict with Leopard features (namely, Spaces).
Hi David, good stuff here..
Couple pre-upgrade questions re: Logic Pro 8:
Can user key commands be imported and translated/retained from v 7.1?
Does Autoload file from 7 retain all settings?
Thanks!
Alex, Yes to both.
