Apple Logic Express 9 - Manual (Page 339)

2 Choose settings in the Import ReCycle file dialog, then click OK.
• Don’t Fix: Imports the file as is. All slices of the file overlap, to match the tempo of
Logic Express.
• Add tracks: Distributes the slices across multiple audio tracks, allowing you to adjust
the position or delete slices freely. The Number of Additional Audio Tracks field
determines how many tracks are used for the distribution of the slices. These tracks
are in addition to the original track that the ReCycle file was added to.
• Crossfade: All slices of the file are imported to the same track, and are automatically
crossfaded. The length of the crossfade is determined by the value (shown in
milliseconds) displayed in the Crossfade Length field.
• Render into single file: This function writes all ReCycle slices into a single audio file. The
current Logic Express project tempo is used for the rendering process.
• Render to Apple Loop: Imports the ReCycle file as an Apple Loops file.
If you do not import the ReCycle file as an Apple Loops or audio file, Logic Express creates
a ReCycle file folder on a folder track. This folder contains slices (you can view them as
miniature regions in the folder) of the ReCycle file at appropriate positions.

Each of these slices references the same audio file, which can be found in the Audio Bin.
