Part 1. Can Logic Pro X Use Songs from Spotify?

As it stands now, Spotify is still not compatible with Apple programs such as iMovie, Final Cut Pro X, or Logic Pro X. So if you wish to use your favorite Spotify song with your project in Logic Pro, you must get the DRM-free audio files from the songs you want from Spotify. For starters you can choose to record a Spotify song from a microphone connected to your Mac, on an audio track in the Tracks area. Learn how to get started with Logic Pro audio tracks with Apple Support.

However, even you record a Spotify song successfully, you may find the audio quality is not good as expected. In fact, there's an alternative way for you to use any Spotify songs for your project. Logic Pro allows you to access any digitally stored audio recording (audio files) on your hard disk only if in the most common Mac file formats, as well as several other formats.

  Audio File Format:
Logic Pro Supports: WAVE (WAV), AIFF, CAF, SDII, MP3, AAC, Apple lossless, Apple Loops, SMF
Spotify Music: DRM-protected
ViWizard output supports: MP3, M4A, M4B, WAV, AAC, FLAC

However, the Spotify songs are DRM-protected and the audio file format is not supported in Logic Pro. For that, you must crack the DRM from a Spotify song and convert it into one of those file formats. All you need is a powerful third-party tool called ViWizard Spotify Music Converter.
