Custom mmp3 settings

Under iTune advanced preferences (mp3 importing) custom settings, there is a choice of "normal stereo" or "joint stereo". What is the difference between the two? Which is better?

You don't mean custom MIDI settings --- you actually want MIDI processing. I'm not aware that MainStage has this. I typically use either Max (http://www.cycling74.com/) or Bidule (http://www.plogue.com/) for this kind of thing. If your needs are really simple, then the freeware MidiPipe (http://homepage.mac.com/nicowald/SubtleSoft/) might work very well for you.

Is there a way to create a project with custom audio settings that are NOT only "Stereo" or "Surround"?

Is there a way to create a project with custom audio settings that are NOT only "Stereo" or "Surround"?
Thanks!

the old apps are on my computer but they have had upgrades since they were put on the ipod originally. you think you would get a warning about this when you restored. I was not worried about losing the progress of the apps but i would have been worried about the app it self!!!!!

Can no longer change bit rate in AAC custom import settings

I've been re-ripping all my CDs at the new higher bit rate. My import settings were AAC Encoder -- custom, originally set to 256 kbps, VBR, and auto for the other two settings. However, some CDs I wanted at a lower setting, so I would go change the bit rate to either 192 or 224 (just so I'd have more room on my ipod) and there wouldn't be a problem. But now it's stuck -- the pop-up box no longer opens when I choose import settings, AAC Encoder, Custom, so I can't change the bit rate or anything else, and it's stuck on 224 kbps. I can still change bit rate and other settings in the custom menus for MP3, WAV, etc., just not AAC. A repair install of iTunes did not fix the problem.

Hi, Ed. I am running iTunes 9.0.3.15. When I click custom, the settings description in the details box display what they were before this thing happened = 112 kbps (mono)/224 kbps (stereo), VBR, optimized for MMX/SSE2. The pop-up dialogue box that used to appear (where you could choose the specific bit rate from the drop down menu) does not appear at all.
However, when I choose anything other than AAC Encoder, and then pick custom, the pop-up box appears and I can choose the bit rate and adjust the other settings as usual. It's just not happening for AAC Encoder anymore. Since the total un-install (following Apple's specified order) and reinstall didn't work, I'm baffled how to fix this .... (If it makes a difference, I changed the bit rate in the custom box while a CD was being burned...Apparently that was stupid, but I had done it previously without incident.) Thanks.

Where does iTunes store the custom EQ settings on my hard drive? (OSX 10.6)

Bought a new Mac. I moved over my iTunes library via export and then import. The songs are on an external drive. Everything went perfectly... except for my custom EQ settings.
The songs still have the custom EQs, but the equalizer itself doesn't have those settings anymore.
For example: for quiet songs, I have a custom EQ called "+6" that boosts the overall volume by 6db (far left EQ slider). If I click Get Info on a song with that custom EQ, I can see that it's still there (in the song's info, I mean), but the EQ itself is missing all of my custom EQs.
I have a full backup of my previous hard drive (not to mention that I still have the old Mac). Where can I find those EQ settings? Surely they're in a file somewhere, right?

The last time I did a clean install of Windows on my PC, I backed up the entire iTunes folder on a separate HD partition. After reinstalling iTunes, I copied the iTunes folder back to the C drive and all of the many EQ presets I had created were restored, along with the music. That was in late 2011. I came to the conclusion that this was how you back up the custom EQ settings.
I guess I made a mistake by assuming it would work again this time. Did I? I repeated the process today when I reinstalled Windows, and all the presets I had created did not get restored and now seem to be gone... Is there any way to recover them?
I spent a lot of time tweaking the different frequencies to get them just right and hope to not have to repeat that process.
All of the settings were created using the custom presets, and not on individual MP3 tracks themselves.
(iTunes version just installed: 11.0.2.26)

How to set and save Custom Print Settings in Aperture?

How to set and save Custom Print Settings in Aperture
Hi,
I am printing 12x18" images on 13x19" sheets. I find it difficult to enter the 13x19" dimensions because each value jumps to another random value when I move to enter the second dimension. For instance 13 jumps to, say, 8.5 as I type 19 into the second box. Same with the sheet dimensions.
Also, when I finally get it all correctly, the margins don't set themselves automatically - which I would I expect.
Then, even though I save the setting by clicking Save Setting at the gear below, next time I turn Aperture on, it's all gone.
Any ideas? Thanks.
Raphael

For me, it is working with these settings, Raphael.
Does your image have a 12x18" aspect ratio? You may want to crop it to the desired aspect ratio before printing.
I can only test with Aperture 3.6 on Yosemite 10.1.

Will we have Custom EQ settings in Feb?

Now I'm no developer and know little in the way of programming limitations etc but I am wondering if there is a chance that once the SDK is released in Feb we might see an improved feature on the iPod and iPhone.
Does anyone know if it would be theoretically possible to set up the iPod touch and iPhone to sync custom EQ settings from iTunes? I can't figure out if this would rely on a change to iTunes or the device itself or both. I'm not asking you to predict if anyone will do it, just whether it is likely to be possible.
If it is possible, do any of you geniuses know someone who would be interested in doing it, and in turn make me a very happy man? Heck, I'll pay them to do it!!
Any info anyone has on this would be much appreciated. Thanks to you all.
John

A "Yes possible in theory" is good enough for me! A little hope never killed anyone.
Speaking of killing someone, don't mean to push you over the edge by bringing this up again Ansuz82 but I noticed a similar thread about does the iPhone transfer presets or not. I got a bit lost but just wanted to check if I were getting it.
It seemed there were two variables.
Whether custom EQ's transfer over if added to the song in iTunes or whether it only worked for the pre-programmed EQ's (stock EQ's?)
Whether you could hear the difference through the headphone jack or only the line out.
If I got it correctly I understood that pre-programmed EQ's assigned to a tune in iTunes will transfer across and can be heard through either line out or headphone jack. iPhone EQ needs to be set to "FLAT" to hear this correctly though.
But, Custom EQ's assigned to a tune in iTunes will not copy across so listening to such a tune with EQ set to "OFF" or "FLAT" makes no difference.
Is this a correct summary?... if you can remember?
Thanks again for your help.

Custom EQ settings missing in 10.1

It seems that my custom eq settings are missing in a project after the upgrade to 10.1. Audio clips that I know I adjusted now just say "Flat(edited)" but I don't see any way to see what the edits actually are. The sliders are all flat.

Hi,
Every release of soa suite may have an updated version of the worklist application. So if you customize the application and upgrade your soa suite installation there may be ar risk you get into problems. However, most of the time the updated version solves existing bug and no more than that. An other issue is that if you are using the bpel libraries to connect to a bpel server the client always needs to be of the same version as the server. What you should do is:
- get the new 10.1.3.3 version of the libraries or install JDeveloper 10.1.3.3
- update your orabpel.properties file and make sure the bpel home is pointing to the new version
- update/verify the build.xml that it is pointing to the new libraries
- rebuild/compile your customized worklist app against the new libraries
- redeploy the new worklist application to the 10.1.3.3 server
Kind Regards,
Andre

Custom communications settings for an Apple LaserWriter

I have an Apple LaserWriter 16/600 up and running on Mac OS 10.4.11 and I want to set some custom communications settings by using the configuration switch on the back. (The switch is currently in the down position for standard settings.)
I have the Apple Printer Utility-PPC from OS 9 and I have Classic open but No luck getting things to work.
What more do I need to do?
Any suggestions?
Shamus

O.K. Grant,
I was just in OS 9, opened the Chooser, selected Laserwriter 8 icon, and it found my Laserwriter 16/600 (which i have hooked up). And choosing Setup>Auto Select, it found the "Laserwriter 16/600 PS" PPD.
I've been trying to download, install and understand this Laserwriter 8.5 thing but, looking in my Extensions>Printer Descriptions folder, I see this "LaserWriter 8500 PPD v1.2" is already there. And I can use Chooser>Setup>SelectPPD to redo my Laserwriter using that PPD.
So, some of my confusion may be cleared up but, this is probably more than I needed to figure out.
Thanks

Cannot Change Custom Import Settings For AAC's

Last night I changed the custom import settings from 192 kbps to 160 kbps for a particular mp3 album I wanted to convert with that bitrate. I tried to change the custom settings back to 192 kbps (the bitrate most of my mp3's & wma's are in). For some reason, the window that came up many times before refuses to pop up now. I tried the custom settings for mp3's and that window still pops up. Anyway, I tried a repair and nothing happened. I uninstalled iTunes, Quicktime, Bonjour, and Apple Software Updates, deleted there corresponding folders in C:/Program Files and then restarted the computer. I downloaded the iTunes 9 installer through the iTunes website and proceeded to reinstall iTunes. Still, the problem exists. I'm not sure what else to do? The only other thing I can think of is to do the same except install iTunes 8 instead and then search for updates and reinstall iTunes 9 that way. Would anyone know of any other method on solving my problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Customized EQ settings

After having read numerous responses indicating customized iTunes EQ settings are non-transferable to my iPod, I'd like to first get out of the way, this is not my question of my problem. My problem > After creating customized EQ presets on my Windows XP computer, and exiting iTunes (of course, after properly ejecting my iPod), whenever I start up iTunes again, my customized EQ settings are gone. For the longest time, I had a series of 10 to 15 customized settings that would always show up when I started iTunes. One day they all vanished, and I haven't been able to successfully retain a single customized EQ setting since. Can anyone explain ???
Just a few FYI items, if this might be of some help with
troubleshooting.
1. I have Sound Enhancer and Sound Check boxes checked (Playback tab).
2. I have Open iTunes automatically when this iPod is attached box checked (iPod tab).
3. My iPod shows up as a Removable Disk drive when displaying contents of My Computer folder (I believe this is normal, though I don't recall that's the way it was when I originally got my iPod and installed iTunes on my computer (again, I have Windows XP).
As far as I know, the only way you can create a customized
EQ setting is to modify the default EQ setting (Manual)
from the Equalizer window, left mouse, on preset pull-down menu, and select Make Preset option, after which blank window shows up and you name your customized preset, right ?
Any assistance anyone can provide would be great. Thanks
Windows XP

well done rwines!
was a rock 'n' roll musician for lots of years,
and naturally having my ears subjected to excessively
high volume levels has robbed me of the ability to
hear some of the high end of the sound spectrum at
the same volume level as the mids and bass.
my sympathies. i picked up some tinnitus a few years
ago (medication side effect). on bad days, it's like
Aphex Twin "Ventolin" (the version off "i care
because you do").
hmmmm. it's possible to make feature requests
for the iPod (directly to Apple). if you've got the
time and the inclination, it might be worth a try
with the customised EQ settings for the ipod:

Firefox does not always remember custom history settings

I use custom history settings. I uncheck Accept cookies from sites (and then use the Cookie Monster add-on to manage cookies). Occasionally I find that the preference has returned to Remember History. I can detect no pattern to when this happens. It usually happens during a session (ie I have not shut Firefox down). It is possible that it happens after the computer has been in sleep mode, but it certain does not happen whenever it is put in sleep mode. Sometimes there may be a couple of weeks between incidents. As I only become aware of it by paying close attention to what Cookie Monster is reporting as the default cookie setting, I am never sure exactly how long it has been before I notice it, though I try to pay attention nowadays.

Custom Import settings (MP3) not working?

I downloaded itunes today having read the help guides that I could d/l files in MP3 format. I changed the custom import settings as per the help guide and purchased music - only to find the downloads are still in m4p format & as such are no good for my mp3 player.
Right clicking & converting doesn't work as they are protected.
I am hoping this is just an error on the custom set up on my part, but reading this forum I did read about protected and Plus purchases, which I did not see in the help guide before I bought the music.
So, my question is: can the protected files be downloaded with the customized MP3 encoder settings or am I completely limited to Plus purchases?
Thanks!

The import setting have no effect on store downloads, all iTunes store downloads are AAC (MP4). The import settings are used to convert the songs imported from CD or to convert unprotected songs in iTunes, not for choosing a format to download song from the store.
You can't convert standard iTunes copy protected songs, only the iTunes Plus purchases can be directly converted to another format. Where possible if you need to convert you should go for iTunes Plus tracks. The only thing you can do with standard songs apart from playing them in iTunes or on an iPod/iPhone is burn them to Audio CD. You can use that CD just like any regular one. If you need songs that will play on a non Apple player you'd be better looking around for other stores that provide unprotected MP3 downloads.

Custom Equalizer Settings: Is this a solution?

Many have complained about how our iPods and iTunes will not save our custom EQ settings. BUT I wonder if this will work.
According to the forum, if the iPod EQ is set to FLAT, then the whatever setting is used for the song in it's original form in iTunes is used....."LIGHT BULB ON!"
So does this mean if I set a custom EQ setting in iTunes, sync the songs, set my iPod's EQ to FLAT, then I have my custom seetings working??
Would anyone from Apple tell me if I am on the right track please? Thanks

So does this mean if I set a custom EQ setting in iTunes, sync the songs, set my iPod's EQ to FLAT, then I have my custom seetings working??
No.
If the iPod EQ is set to Flat, it will use the EQ setting for the song as long as it is one of the presets.
Custom EQs are not used by the iPod.

Where are custom equalizer settings saved on windows pc

Where are iTunes custom equalizer settings saved on my Windows 7 hard drive? I always backup the entire iTunes folder and use that to restore everything after reformatting my hard drive. Everything restores EXCEPT the custom equalizer settings. Which file contains my custom EQ settings, and where is it found?

Go to Edit>Preferences>Presets>Show Lightroom Presets Folder.
These folders are usually (see below) actually in the same folder called 'Lightroom' where your catalog lives.
If you back up the entire 'Lightroom' folder they should be there unless you have elected to put the folder elsewhere.
Either way 'Show Lightroom Presets Folder' takes one there.
You can copy and back it up seperately or as part of the greater 'ightroom folder' back up.
