In a word, yes.
I started looking for ways to modify the GUI as a new user of L8. The built-in appearance preference in Cubase, and Amplidood's pre-DP Themes mods were much appreciated for what they did for on-screen appeal.
A well known Logic pro stated that it's beauty is
under the hood in terms of cpu efficiency. Having used other DAW, I do keep that in mind because it is a fact.
But on-screen eye candy is nothing to dismiss either.
At any rate, the safest approach would be to create a duplicate of Logic per Amplidood instructions. Name it Logic Mod Pro or similar. Then conduct your GUI experiments on the dupe. You can always trash the dupe and continue to use the original, unmodified Logic Pro.app.
Some folks were having problems when installing Logic updates because the updater was expecting to see "Logic Pro.app". They (me
) either didn't make a dupe with a modified name, or,
the Logic Pro.app name was modified.
It was a simple matter to correct the name so that the update could occur. Use of a dupe side steps this issue.
The Audio Grocery installer makes this pretty much a slam-dunk success in terms modifying and restoring to the original state.
If playing with the Amplidood mod files, I would option-drag the Logic Resources folder (Show Package Contents>Contents>Resources) to the desk top to have a backup of the original files. The next step is optional. I would open the step 5 folder, Select All, then right-click on one of them to Label the files with a color, before dragging them into the Resources folder in the Contents folder. That way they are easy to identify if you want to selectively change them with the originals, or select files from another source.
Of course the easiest way to restore to original would be to drag the original Resources folder back into the Contents folder.
You can PM me or post here with additional questions.
Best,
