Well, to be fair, Folders don't "blow" but Logic Folders have a
very
different methodology and use than other application's folders. For
example, you can use a folder as a "poor man's ReCycle" by hacking
up
an audio file, packing it into a folder, and then looping, moving,
editing, etc. a folder. It's not just an organizational tool.
Personally, I've always preferred the "Cubase VST Style" folders
which
are similar, but have disclosure triangles, so you can expand folders
on the same Arrange. I think it was Mr. Pitcairn who suggested that
this would be better served as a new track class, than an added
functionality of the current Folder class. Either way, I'd like to see
it in Logic.

Absolutely. I wish for this as well. I don't know if you can in Pro
Tools (I know you can NOT in DP) but in Cubase, you can view and edit
all your Takes at once. To me, that's ideal--the best way to comp the
perfect take.
