i'm 95% sure this isn't a possibility but any work arounds? I think theyre the .caf files.

i should state i've barely used logic but some of those loops are intriguing are they midi based loops? is that why they can't be imported

download a free batch conversion utility that will convert .caf files to .wav or .aif. nothing to it.

i used Max. http://sbooth.org/Max/

There are a lot of ways to do that actually.

First off, most of the Logic Loops are actually just Apple Loops (and are used in both Logic and GarageBand). So, if you want them, just using Live's file browser to dig down into the main library for your computer, then go to the audio folder, then go to Apple Loops. It will be right about there.

And if that doesn't work you can always just load up Logic, lay down the loop and export it as a midi or as a .wav to your desktop, which should get you the same effect.
