Further Information on Conditional Searches
It goes without saying that searching for a particular file in the Browser can be much
faster than navigating to it. You can define up to ten advanced condition rows to refine
your searches. The search rows offer the following conditions.
Finding Apple Loops in the Loop Browser
The Loop Browser only displays Apple Loop format files. You can search for Apple
Loops, using key words for instrument, genre, mood, and other descriptors. You can
also browse for Apple Loops in the Loop Browser.
In comparison with standard audio loops, Apple Loops have a significant
advantage: they can contain additional information that Logic Pro uses for a variety of
purposes, including automatic time and pitch shifting, indexing, and searching.
