This chapter describes all audio file management functions available in Logic Pro. While
several individual file management functions are found in the Sample Editor and the
Arrange window, most audio file management takes place in the Audio Bin. These options
help you to keep track of your audio files, and make tasks such as file copying, moving,
renaming, and backing up both easy and efficient.
