Another location of Presets (Config.json) (configurable?)

Hi.
Is it possible to configure logic to load the presets from somewhere else then the %APPDATA%\Logic\ folder?
If not that would be great.

The reason is that I use the logic analyser both at home and at work and currently I have two completely different presets list with different presets.

If it was saved in the user documents folder, or similar, that is synced via Onedrive, google drive, or other similar tools this would no longer be an issue (As long as the syncing works of course)

@mrzane42 Thanks for writing in! At the moment, Logic Presets are locked to the locations we list below.

I think your use case is quite great, and I assume it would be a common need to have presets sync’d between multiple PCs. I love the idea and will bring this up internally with the team here.

Right now, one workaround would be to backup your presets to a sync’d folder. You would have to manually import them into the Logic software for all PCs however, so it’s a bit cumbersome compared to a completely automated sync solution.

Hi @mrzane42 ,

As it would turn out, it looks like we can support this right now! Our application is Electron based, which uses the Chromium browser. It turns out the Chromium browser already has features to override the user data directory via command line argument.

If you launch Logic.exe with the option --user-data-dir=<path> it will store all of the application configuration files there. (including config.json)

I’ve tested this like so:

"\Program Files\Logic\Logic.exe" --user-data-dir="C:\Users\markg\Desktop\test"
