lpx_links: New Logic Content Utility

Thu Jun 18, 2015 2:27 pm

Hi
It's been a while. Just a heads up. I've made a utility that helps with getting the latest content
download links for Logic Pro X 10.1.1
For now it just gets the links and outputs them to a text file.

Over time (read as I get time ) I hope to implement some other tools in it as well.

    Download Manager
    Content Installer (Install to User Defined Location)
    Content Re-locator (Move content to another drive - with auto linking)
    Content Re-linker (Attempts to fixes the links should they something go wrong)

I have just updated my utility that gets all the download links to the additional content.
You can use a download manager and install from there. http://bit.ly/lpx_links

I'm missing the purpose of this. How is this different from using the downloaded additional content function in Logic?

Never mind, I just read that some people were having download issues.

In case anyone needs to use David T's lpx_links utility with Logic 10.2.1, there are some things that need to be updated:

After following David's instructions on Github, you'll get a "no such file or directory" error from Ruby in Terminal, but you'll still get a "lpx_links" folder created in your Downloads folder although it won't include the actual links to the content. To fix this, open the "config.rb" (lpx_links/app/lib/) with a text editor and change the following:

From this:

RSC = '/Contents/Resources/logicpro1020.plist'
URL = 'http://audiocontentdownload.apple.com/lp10_ms3_content_2015/'

To this:

RSC = '/Contents/Resources/logicpro1021.plist'
URL = 'http://audiocontentdownload.apple.com/lp10_ms3_content_2016/'

Save and quit out of your text editor.

Now, to get the links to the content written to a file, enter the following in terminal:

cd ~/Downloads/lpx_links/app/; ruby lpx_links.rb


Of course, all of this will be unnecessary once David updates his code :)

Update done!

Thanks for the heads up. I haven't had time to use logic in while and didn't realise there was a new version.
