Get started with sharing

You can share a project to your iTunes library, or to the Media Browser to use in other Apple applications, such as Final Cut Pro or iMovie. If you have a SoundCloud account, you can share a project to SoundCloud, choose the quality and visibility level, and set permissions for the shared project from within Logic Pro.

Share the project to your iTunes library

  1. Choose File > Share > To iTunes.

  2. To rename the shared file, select the name in the Title field, then enter a new name.

  3. Type artist, composer, and album information for the shared file in the respective text fields.

  4. Choose the quality level for the shared file from the Quality pop-up menu.

When you share a project to iTunes, the entire project, from the beginning to the end of the last region, is exported. Any silence at the beginning or end of the project is trimmed. If Cycle mode is on when you share the project, the part of the project between the start and end of the cycle region is exported.

The shared project appears in the iTunes library, where you can add it to playlists, convert it, or burn it to a CD. The format of the shared project is determined by the iTunes import settings.
