How to get an MP3 out of a Logic Pro project

Somebody sent you a Logic project and you are on Windows, or on a phone, or just not on the Mac it was made on. Logic only runs on macOS, so the usual way to hear it is not open to you. The package carries the arrangement and, usually, the recordings; what it cannot carry is Logic's own instruments. So the recordings play as they are, the instrument parts play on stand-ins, and the MP3 is the two together.

  1. Add your .logicx: A .logicx is a folder that Finder shows as a file: on a Mac choose it with the folder picker, anywhere else drop a zip of it. Its arrangement is read on our server, and the recordings inside the package play from your copy. No account is needed to open it.
  2. It renders by itself: The studio opens on the arrangement and starts the MP3 straight away. Audio regions play from the package; each software-instrument track's notes are played by a stand-in picked from its name, rendered on our server from a General MIDI sound set.
  3. Download the MP3: One 256 kbps file of the whole arrangement lands in your downloads. Your first three a month need no account; a free account gives you 120.

Questions about the Logic Pro project to MP3 converter?

We have answers.

Can I convert a Logic project to MP3 without a Mac?

Yes, drop a zip of the .logicx here, from Windows, Linux or a phone. Recordings play as recorded; software-instrument parts play on stand-in instruments, not Logic's.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

Your first three MP3s a month need no account, and opening the project needs none at all. A free account raises the renders to 120 a month.

Why are some regions silent?

They point at audio files outside the package. In Logic, File → Project Management → Consolidate copies them in; zip the project again and drop that.

Will it sound like my project?

Your recordings will; your instruments will not. Software-instrument parts are played on General MIDI stand-ins, and plugins, automation and Flex are not rendered. Signed in, Sources can play any part on a modelled instrument instead.

How long can the project be?

Up to 20 minutes and 40,000 notes for the stand-in render.

  • What travels inside a .logicx, and what does not

    A Logic project is a package: the arrangement and, when it was saved with its audio copied in, a Media folder holding the recordings. Those come along and play as recorded, at their positions, on their named tracks. What does not travel is anything Logic makes live: software instruments, Alchemy patches, Drummer, channel-strip plugins, Flex time. Software-instrument regions arrive as notes, and stand-ins picked from the track names play them. If audio regions come up silent, the project referenced files outside the package; File → Project Management → Consolidate in Logic copies them in.

  • Why it is not your Logic mix

    Everything that makes a Logic project sound finished is computed by Logic while it plays: the instruments, the channel strips, the bus processing, the automation. None of that is audio in the file, and no server here runs a plugin; there is no upload or fee that would change that. What you hear is your recordings at their positions and your writing on stand-ins: right for checking an arrangement, a take, a running order. The record itself comes out of Logic's File → Bounce, on the Mac that has everything.

  • One bitrate, and what it costs

    256 kbps is the only bitrate on offer: no slider, nothing to get wrong. About 1.9 MB a minute, so a four-minute song lands near 8 MB: one attachment, playable by anything. An MP3 spends its bits on seconds rather than on detail, and what it discards is gone; send the MP3, keep a WAV if the audio will be worked on.
