Can Folder Icons be created or customized?

Apr 18th, 2011, 10:01

Logic 407, Producing with folders. I watched about half and completely dove in neck deep. This is a great way to cut that massive arrange page down to size. One tip, do not forget to be very detailed in labeling. I used the "Notes" area under the mixer (lower left bottom corner button) to add notes. A long journey of a deepening rabbit hole may occur. So in my quest to be better organized, I wondered, can "Folder Icons" be created as are track icons? I have made my own track icons but the folder icons are default. I wish I had a way to designate what they are. Here is a view on my arrange page mixer's folder labels [img]http://mojaveampworks.com/scrn/folderview.png[/img]

Hi Victor, Logic 207 Producing with Folders is a great tutorial! Unfortunately, there's no easy way (read: not sure if there is any way currently) to assign a different icon to folder tracks in Logic 9. The deeper into the rabbit hole you go... the more you'll need to keep track. I'd recommend naming the Folder track with an appropriate name. e.g. Folder Lvl 1 Folder Lvl 2 etc. :)

It's a shame you can't add color to the Folder channel in the Mixer... hopefully this'll change in a future version of Logic...
