Hello,

mjh45 has just posted in the Logic 9 forum of Logic Users Group under the title of Is it possible to amend file names in a batch?.

Here's my problem.

I have a project on my system. My client sends me some updated EDLs.
When I try to open the session I get something like this:

"the file named "bass3_1.aif can't be located at it's usual location"
then i see the location is 
User/logic/session name/audio files folder/ 

Apparently my client somehow overwrote all the files in HIS session thus 
the EDL is looking for "bass3_1.aif"  instead of "bass3.aif.

Now I can simply go thru each file and add _1 to it and the session will load.
But this is a real pain when the session has 400+ files.

Is there an utility that anyone knows of that will let me amend all the audio files in a batch. The folks at Applecare were no help.

Thanks!!!
