Logic Pro 7 & earlier Looking for a favour: convert an old song?

[tedthetrumpet]

Hi there, I'm looking for a favour. I have an old Logic song, Logic Pro says it is 'version 4 or earlier' and needs '7.2.1 or earlier' to open. I don't currently have a machine working that will run an old copy of Logic: would anyone do me the favour of updating it and sending it back to me? If so, here it is:

(What it is… every year we used to have some of our nephews and neices around, and record a Christmas song with them… so this one is for the little children

Any luck with that Ted.. I too have some older Logic ver 4 files i cant open as well. placed a similar posting on www.catfishfridaymusic.com.. frustrating stuff.

Nothing so far. Last time I had this problem, I think I asked on the main forum, and someone came back to me more or less straight away…

did you ever get anywhere with this? I can covert it for you if you still need..

 

[tedthetrumpet]

It would be great if you could! It's still there on that same link:

Thanks,

sure..what version of Logic are you running now?

never mind, I saved it as a Logic 9 file. Here's the link, it should work. It opens in Logic 10 as well-I tested it.

if that doesn't work try this one..(?)
for some reason dropbox zips the .iso file (but not the audio files)..I'm guessing it'll unzip when you download the stuff. If it doesn't and you can't open it, I can just email you the .iso file, it's not that big.

ackkk..it's still buggy. It seems to be uploading the audio files as Text Edit files. Then when I try to download and open the song, they've become 8-bit files and won't play. Not understanding this, haven't used Dropbox in a while but I've used it for massive projects, sending stuff back and forth across the country, and never had an issue like this before. Still trying to figure this out...

ok, I tried converting the audio files to .wav files (from SDII). Now they aren't bring changed to text files when I put them in dropbox. I tried downloading and opening the song in Logic X and it worked this time. So, here's another link for you to try:

let me know if you have any luck with this..didn't expect it to be this convoluted, but maybe it was the SDII files that were messing things up..I haven't used those since about 1999 LOL

 

[tedthetrumpet]

Great, works fine, thanks for taking the time. Yeah, SDII was a bit of a surprise to me as well!

 

[doofus]

all good then, glad I could help. In retrospect I think all I probably needed to send you was the new .iso file, not the entire project..but that didn't occur to me.
