Beware using BPM1.5 in Logic 9.1.1, horrible bug...
OK need to warn people about this because I've just lost a days work due to it. Don't know if it's Logic or BPM but if you're using that combination you need to know about this to save tears.
When you drag pattern files from BPM as 'audio' to the Logic arrange page, you need to 'bounce' them seperately in Logic as they can completely disappear when you load up your session tomorrow.
My logic seems to treat 'dragged from BPM' audio files differently and so loses them after a day, even if you search for the name on your hard drive they're not there.
Be warned.

BPM create audio DnD in a temporary folder.
You should be able to tell logic to consolidate audio DnD.
After a quick Google check, here is what I've found
Hiding under the 'Advanced Options', there is a check box to select "Copy External Audio Files to the Project Folder".
Hope this helps.

thanks for your reply, unfortunately these options are 'greyed out' for some unknown reason?
Re: Beware using BPM1.5 in Logic 9.1.1, horrible bug...
maybe greyed out until you have saved your project at least one time ?
Otherwise it doesn't know the project folder location.

I haven't noticed the problem... Of course I do typically build my patterns/sequences within BPM 1.5 and also the "Copy External Files" Box isn't grayed out for me.

I wonder if it's a 'Logic booted in 64bit' issue?

Not sure... I run in 32-bit mode since it seems to have the least amount of conflicts... At least for now. Actually... I know you can run in 64-Bit but I'm not sure how to switch to 64 bit... How can you check/tell or switch between 32 and 64 bit?

You go to the Logic app icon in applications folder, hold cmd+i and there's a little tick box that says "open in 32 bit mode".
Actually just tried opening in 32bit and options are still greyed out, will have to ask Apple about that.
