Logic to Pro Tools

Hand a Logic song to the mix, ready to play in Pro Tools.

Drop a Logic project on the window and get a Pro Tools session that plays the project's own audio files where they are. Folders, buses, sends, automation and plug-ins come across with their settings, and nothing is copied or bounced unless you ask.

Beta Version 0.3, for the Mac.

A disk image, signed and notarized by Apple: open it and drag Logic to Pro Tools into Applications. The Read Me inside explains everything below in more detail.

Before the first conversion

Open Pro Tools once on the Mac and quit it again. That makes Pro Tools' list of installed plug-ins, which the app reads to know which plug-ins it can insert.

To bounce Flex Time and transposed tracks, the app also uses Logic Pro, and macOS asks once for Accessibility permission.

How it works

Drop a Logic project on the windowEvery track shows in Logic's order, with its folders. Untick whatever shouldn't come across, or leave out every muted, off or hidden track at once.
Convert to Pro ToolsThe session goes next to the project, in "Song (Pro Tools)". Nothing is overwritten, and no audio is copied or moved.
Open it in Pro ToolsQuit Logic and open the session. A report beside it lists anything that didn't come across, so nothing is a surprise.

What comes across

Tracks and routing: Folders, buses, sends, aux tracks, volume, pan, mutes, solos and colours. Tracks that are off in Logic come across inactive.
Regions: Regions with their gain and fades, crossfades, take folders as playlists, MIDI regions, markers, tempo and meter.
Automation: Volume, pan, mute and send automation.
Plug-ins, with their settings: Every plug-in with an AAX version on the Mac is inserted as it was set. A chain longer than Pro Tools' ten inserts continues on an aux right after it.
Logic's own plug-ins: Channel EQ, Compressor and Noise Gate become FabFilter Pro-Q 3, Pro-C 2 and Pro-G, or Avid's EQ3 and Dyn3. Pitch Correction becomes Topline Vocal Tune or Auto-Tune Pro, with Logic's exact notes.
Flex Time and transposition: Pro Tools can't play them, so the app can have Logic bounce just those tracks into the session. The original regions stay on an alternate playlist.

Keep the drive with the project's audio connected. To send the session to another studio, open it in Pro Tools and use File › Save Copy In… with Audio Files ticked.
