Change the location of the GarageBand libraries. Jan 20, '04 10:35:00AM. Contributed by: astroboy. If you are like me and your powerbook's hard drive space is precious, you'd better put those GarageBand loops some other place. Oct 15, 2014 /Library/Application Support/GarageBand/ is the location for the pre-installed GarageBand content such as templates and preset channel strips/patches. The actual (pre-fabbed, not user-recorded) audio loops and samples that GarageBand uses are available to all other audio apps that wish to use them, as well, and are located at /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/. I have discovered that Logic installs the first GarageBand library if GarageBand is not install. Then, if you add iLife after you have installed Logic, that installs the GarageBand library also, but it's default location. If Logic is installed AFTER iLife, then it does not install the GarageBand library. Regards Bobbi aka Loh-Q-Mac Mac.

What is an Apple Loop?

Apple Loops have become a popular file format for Mac users who favor Garageband and Logic.
