Incomplete Logic Pro X installation

By chaosmeister 5 April 2016 Logic

Problem
After upgrading to Logic Pro X 10.2.2 my install seemed to be missing content (in my case mainly Plugin Settings, although I’ve read reports from people missing anything from EXS instruments to Alchemy patches or complete Drummers). All additional content had been installed as witnessed by the Sound Library Manager. Deleting the Logic application file and re-downloading from the App Store (in order to re-establish a connection with the Apple homeland in the hopes of triggering a “install missing content” menu-option) does not help.

Hours of web-surfing finally brought a not-completely-obvious solution, which I’d though I’d share with the world since during my search  I ran into various pages describing similar problems without a solution.

Beyond (waking up)

By chaosmeister 17 March 2016 music

With the drone of sleep still softening awareness, the world not really there yet… the spirit reaching beyond all you know, and yet realising she is there, right beside you, and all is well, and all will be well, and all will be.

Or, more profane: bassoon, oboe, some ancient Wagner sample from the floppy-days, drone, all soaked in copious amounts of reverb and delay. This is actually quite an old one which has been dormant for years, waiting for the right time, the right mood, the right alignment of stars to come forth. A very dear friend is going through more hardship than she deserves. This was originally written for her. The time indeed is right.
