Moving project data between programs and devices in your
own, or external, studios is commonplace these days.
Unfortunately, not every application or device talks the same language.
Logic Express is compatible with a huge number of applications and devices, courtesy
of advanced export and import facilities that allow you to use parts of, or entire,
projects in other applications, such as Final Cut Pro and Pro Tools. Even hardware
devices, such as workstation keyboard sequencers and digital recorders are supported.
Logic Express can export and import the following file formats:
 Audio files (derived from regions or tracks): These can be saved in WAV, AIF, SDII,
Apple Lossless, MP3, and AAC formats.
 GarageBand projects
 OMF (Open Media Framework, also known as OMFI—Open Media Framework
Interchange)
 AAF (Advanced Authoring Format)
 OpenTL (Open Track List)
 Final Cut Pro XML
 MIDI Files (derived from selected, or all, MIDI regions)
Logic Express makes it easy to create a complete project archive. This simplifies
transfers to other storage media, and transport to other users or facilities—either
physically or via a network.
You can also share settings information with other Logic Express users on a local or
remote network.
