Plugin Groups

Organize your plugins into colored groups with custom symbol markers for fast recognition.

What it does

From the windows navigator choose Plugin Groups. Here you’ll find every installed plugin and can organise them into groups, then colour each group independently — so EQs, reverbs, synths and utilities are visually distinct in Logic’s plugin menus. Create your own grouping templates; much like the Color Palette, they are independent of the theme selected.

Creating groups

Identification options

You can colour each group independently — either the complete plugin colour, or add a coloured marker on top.

Colour the whole plugin from the picker
…or add a marker in your choice of shape
The marker shows as a coloured tab on the plugin
Enable Marker and pick its shape

Tips

Keep group colours in the same family as their function (cool colours for time-based effects, warm for saturation/drive) so the logic is memorable.
