Pack and unpack folders in Logic Pro
You can pack selected regions into a folder, or create an empty folder and add regions to it.
Pack regions into a folder
In Logic Pro, select the regions, then choose Functions > Folder > Pack Folder from the
Tracks area menu bar.
If the selected regions are all on the same track, the folder is created on that track. If
the regions are located on different tracks, a new folder track is created.
Note: When moving a folder with a single content track between tracks of the same type,
the folder contents play using the channel strip of the hosting track.
Create an empty folder
In Logic Pro, with no regions selected in the Tracks area, choose Functions > Folder >
Pack Folder from the Tracks area menu bar.
The new, empty folder contains tracks assigned to all channel strips from the current level.
Unpack a folder
1. In Logic Pro, select the folder.
2. Do one of the following:
Choose Functions > Folder > Unpack Folder to New Tracks from the Tracks area
menu bar.
Logic Pro creates new tracks on the same level that the folder was located on (below
the former folder track).
Choose Functions > Folder > Unpack Folder to Existing Tracks from the Tracks area
menu bar (or use the “Unpack Folder to Existing Tracks” key command).
The regions contained within the folder are placed on tracks assigned to appropriate
channel strips.
Open and close folders in Logic Pro
After you have packed a folder, you can open it to make changes.
There are several ways to distinguish whether you are inside a folder, or viewing the entire
project in the Tracks area:
In the Tracks area, the folder itself is visible on a track, the Logic Pro main window title
bar shows the project name, and the Display Level button
is dimmed.
When inside a folder, the folder track can’t be seen, the main window title bar shows the
project name followed by the folder name (for example; Untitled:Chorus Folder), and
the Display Level button is available.
Open a folder
In Logic Pro, do one of the following:
Double-click the folder.
Select the folder you want to open, then use the Go Into Folder or Region key command.
