The update to logic 10.1 seemed to have respected this and automatically installed all the new drumer content to the respective locations via the symlinks onto the external disk. However logic 10.2 seems to have broken this once again. and now i have to watch the basic content download again. (edit: most of it seems to be the new "alchemy samples" which get a folder of their own in library->application support->logic. why is that? and can it be moved to an external disk? and should i do this before or after downloading the whole alchemy sound library?)Ĭan anybody please make an ultimate guide on what files can be moved from their respective locations to an external drive using symlinks to free up as much space as possible. This also should include all the content from garageband as well. so please apple give me an official way that lets me delete all this useless data on my disk! why are there such complicated overlaps in the sound libraries anyways?Ī logic user should have the option to uninstall garageband completely, leaving only the content for logic, because there is really no use for the garageband app if you got logic. Symlinks (symbolic links) is what i have been using since logic 8, because normally they should be more robust than folder aliases and should be respected by any system app as it is a core funtionality of the os. However i managed to get most of the stuff from logic and garageband to the external drive by using symlinks. In detail: i created two folders on my external (just to keep things orderly) - one called "logic pro x" and the other called "garage band".
