Is it possible to copy the library of sounds in Logic Studio over to the GarageBand folder on the new Mac?

I just got a brand new MBP and can't install Logic Pro. I used to LOVE the supplied library of sounds (Glass breaking, crystal glass sounds etc) and obviously now I can't access them as I can't install it.

Are these sounds in a folder somewhere on my old Mac and can I copy them to the new Mac using Garageband as the vessel?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I found the folder entitled Apple Loops for Soundtrack Pro on my Mac. Will garage band be able to read these?

Best way to figure out is to try it.

I copied the folder to the same area on my new Mac where it would have been on my old one.

Then I opened GarageBand and went up to the loop browser. . .the folder wasn't listed.

I then DRAGGED the folder from finder and this linked the folder to the in-app loop browser and all is great! :)
