Exporting 7.2 song files
does anybody know how to export logic 7.2 song files to logic 4.8 or equivalent. read manual but that option doesnt appear in my > file > export menu.
G5 2.0 ghz Mac OS X (10.4.6)
I don't think there is a "Direct" way anymore. In version 6, there was an "Export as 4.8" option, but that has been removed. If you, or someone you know, has version 6 still active on their system, you could perhaps get the song back to version 6, and then go from there.
Keep in mind the differences between version 7 and version 4 are quite significant, so it's possible that option was eliminated simply because they aren't even close to compatible anymore. For starters, the OS's are different. version 4 was OS 9 only, and version 7 is OSX only.
Another option, would be to "Export All Tracks As Audio" from version 7, and then simply import all the audio files into 4.8. Or if it's MIDI only, perhaps Exporting as a MIDI file would work, at least as far as getting the MIDI information transfered.

and then the audio wouldn't work in Hydrogen...
Now; the previous time I opened Hydrogen, the audio did work, but I made a quick drum track and tried to export it and in the process of doing so, (made it to where the audio stopped working?)
How can I get audio back and export song files?
Thanks in advance for any tips!
Last edited by customscrollbar (2014-01-15 16:50:55)Are you starting jackd in realtime mode? If not, maybe that's what causes Hydrogen zombification. You could try to start jack manually beforehand, for example via qjackctl.
I can offer what works for me, maybe you want to try to replicate my setup.
I'm using hydrogen 0.9.5.1-4 and jack2 1.9.9.5-4. I start jackd via qjackctl 0.3.11-1 with the following setup:
Generated command line:
/usr/bin/jackd -P80 -p128 -t4000 -dalsa -dhw:0 -r48000 -p256 -n2 -Xseq
I'm not using a realtime kernel, just stock Arch Linux, right now linux 3.12.7-1 (haven't updated yet to 3.12.7-2).
Aside from all that, you can get great help for Linux audio issues at linuxmusicians.com, lots of knowledgable folks there.

How to export comps as audio files that start at beginning of song?
Hi all
I'm a failry casual Logic user, looking for some insights from you experts out there!
Right now I'm helping out on an album project which involves me laying down various parts in a different location to the main project. Basically I'm getting rough mixes of the songs which I'm importing into my own Logic 8 project as single stereo files. Then I'm recording my various bits so that I can later send back individual wavs of each track I've recorded.
I've recorded various takes and made a few comps that I want to use for my file export. However, I haven't always started recording at the very beginning of the song, hence my audio regions don't start at the same point. I want to give the producer files that can be pulled into the main project with the exact same starting point.
I've tried poking around in the menus and the user guide to figure out how to do this, but without much success. I've tried "flatten and merge" on my comps, and have then tried drawing some "blank" regions to fill in the space back to the song starting point. I thought I could then glue them together and export as one audio file, but it's not working.
Before I get myself too tied up in knots, can anyone recommend a "right" way to do this?
Thanks a lot!Thanks! I'll try that third option and see if it works for us.
I'd still like to solve this via option 1 anyway, as it could be useful in other applications (ie when collaborating with systems that don't support the timestamp feature).
The problem is that if I use the pencil tool to draw an empty region, it won't let me glue it to the existing recorded region. I get the error "Folders and Regions or Aliases cannot be merged."
Also, if I double-click the new region it opens in the piano roll rather than the sample editor, which seems bizarre. Surely you can't combine MIDI and audio regions on the same track?? This could be a clue as to why it won't let me glue these regions together though.
Note that in the file I'm currently trying this with, I've flattened and merged my takes, having chosen the one I want to keep. So, I no longer have the take folders visible (and actually, I don't know how I'd get them back if I wanted to, but I guess that's a different question entirely). My point being that Folders aren't in use here, despite what the error message says. -
I want to create a 10 minute track combining 3 songs then export as an mp3 file. any help would be appreciated.
Pull the 3 songs into GB's timeline (the big gray area), they will appear on 3 different tracks (unless they are DRM protected songs from the iTunes Store.) You can push them around, cut them, etc. When you're finished, use the "Share" menu to send them to iTunes or save them to your disk, make sure you check the "compress" box and pick mp3 as the compression method.

How do I go about deleting mulitple song files all at one time as opposed to deleting them all individually off of the latest version of iTunes?
Also I have tried authorizing my computer to play the songs I purchased off of iTunes when I had an iPhone 4 and it will not allow me to play them whatsoever. I now have an iPhone 5 and wish to load these past song purchases onto my new phone. How do I solve this issue?what you're missing to export multiple files is the batch export command available in the file menu or by control clicking on the items in the browser. You can export multiple sequences/clips at full resolution with this.
This has been available in fcp for a long long time.
Wow, you are right. Now that you mention it, I can't believe I never noticed that. Thanks.
Only if you have the 'Self-Contained' box checked. Otherwise you'll end up with a reference movie.
Correct. That box is typically checked by default. There are other default settings you could change that would not result in a full-quality version, but what I meant was hitting that option from the pull-down menu, then changing nothing and hitting ok. -
So my song file actually is corrupted...
Ok, so I got my new macpro, I thought everything was working great, until I tried to move some audio and it disappeared completely.
bah...
Ok.. so-- I have approx 100 tracks of audio + software instruments.... What is the best way to copy over my data to a new song file, audio placement, note events, plugins, and automation (for plugins too)..
This feels like a nightmare, but... maybe someone here has some advice.
I did try the whole select all & apple-c and then apple-v in a new song.. The result was ugly, all my audio parts overlapped ontop of each other.
-patrickIt's so incredibly evil.
all i can think is that you must have been very bad in a past life...
try:
select all you midi tracks and make them start at the beginning of the file and end at the end of the song.
make midi files of your audio tracks. (duplicate the track and put a midi region on it.
move automation to region.
select all midi regions and export as midi file. your tempo info should go with it.
save each of your tracks as csts (channel strip settings)
export your audio as OMF (preserves interleaved)
import your midi and then load up your csts.
import your audio.
move region data to automation.
i really think you should stop work in this file - you are just going to go from bad to worse. errr....maybe that should be from worse to explosion. -
Hi! See this... i have a couple of instrument tracks and wanna "transorm" them into Audio to save CPU. I tried Export Region as Audio File and it works well the first time, then the second region... Logic quits unexpectedly. I tried 16bit, 24 bit, different destination folder, in solo and not in solo mode, in cycle and not in cycle mode... let's say it doesn't matter. it quits 2, 3 times at the Export as Audio File stage, the next time it works well again. Then quits once more and so on... An hint is that right before chrashing i can see all other regions switching to MUTE mode. fairly odd! Do you have any idea about it?
Thanx in advanceWorks fine here... no problems at all.
Have you tried this in a different song? It may be something with this one Logic file... unless you can duplicate it in another song.
As an alternative, I would suggest you simply export the whole track. -
Exporting one iTune song to my computer
I haven't used iTunes for awhile and just upgraded. I want to export one song to my Music Folder on my computer. I can only see how to export a playlist so I created a playlist with just the one song in it and exported it. It showed up as a MPEG4 file.
I want to upload it to one of my web pages but the web only recognizes MP3 formats.
1)Is there a way to export just one song to my computer
2) Is there a way to export it as a MP3 or convert from MPEG4 to MP3?
ThanksIn Windows, create a folder for the playlist and open it.
In iTunes, highlight all the songs. Then drag them to the open folder.
(If you normally run iTunes in full screen mode, make it smaller so you can do the drag.)
This procedure puts a copy of each song file into the folder, and does not change anything in your iTunes library. -
What is the size limit, if any, for a single song file?
Thanks!No Jim, you can't do it that way. Only when you import from CD's the files will be imported according to the setting in iTunes preferences. If you import a file from you computerdisk it will (try to) import your AIFF-file as is. You can convert files within iTunes, but that file has to be a part of the iTunes-library already. In your case it isn't.
So you need to convert it outside iTunes and then import the ALAC-file to into iTunes. You said you made this file in Logic Pro. I guess Logic pro can do this for you. You load the file in Logic Pro and export it as ALAC file again. Then you import that new file in iTunes and I bet you're in business.
Good Luck. -
"Rough" GIF export from ActionScript 3 files impossible?
Hello,
I just upgraded from Flash CS3 to Flash CS5, and I've been playing with the various new features. However, I've just encountered an odd problem that I can't seem to find a solution to.
In the past, I've made animated GIFs in CS3 by exporting them with the "Smooth" box unchecked. This was really convenient for me because not only could I export crisp pixel bitmaps from Flash, but I could edit it in another program later. I was planning on making some GIF animations via this process with the aid of the bone tool in CS4 and 5.
When I tried exporting frames of of a figure created with the bone tool in CS5, however, I got images that were fuzzy and often had distorted colors. After some time, I realized that this was because in CS3, I had exported the images from ActionScript 2 files, while the bone tool only works in ActionScript 3 files.
Is it not possible to export "rough" GIFs from ActionScript 3 files, or is there a trick to doing that that I'm somehow missing?I'm sorry for not making it clear in my initial post, but it doesn't matter whether I create an image using the bone tool or not -- any GIF image exported from an AS3 file always has an antialiased appearance, even when the Smooth box is unchecked.
To show you what I mean, here's a simple GIF image I exported from an AS2 file:
Notice that all of the lines are simple and pixellated, with no antialiasing at all. This is the kind of GIF I want to export from an AS3 file.
Now here's the exact same image I exported from an AS3 file, with the exact same export settings:
As you can see, all of the lines look smoothed, even though I made sure the Smooth box was unchecked.
Is there anything I can do to correct this problem? -
Export to Excel – XLS file formatting
Hi,
I have created process that exports report to XLS file. I write XLS file using XML tags, supported by Excel, which allow me to format each cell (especially look and data type). Unfortunately I can’t force Excel to see cell as date-cell.
I’m getting from database date in YYYY-MM-DD format and I want the same in Excel. I can export it as string value, but I want Excel to see it as date – not string.
This code works fine:
<ss:Cell><ss:Data ss:Type="String">'||x.begin_date||'</ss:Data></ss:Cell>
but Excel see the cell as a string.
I want something like that:
<ss:Cell><ss:Data ss:Type="Date">'||x.prnm_short_name||'</ss:Data></ss:Cell>
but this one doesn’t work, as well as “DateTime” type.
Do you know how to solve this problem?

Size of Infocube Export to a flat file (.CSV)
First off, I'm new to BW so I apologize if I use the wrong terminology. I was wondering if there was any way to estimate the size of a flat file infocube export. For example, if I look up all the associated DB tables for a cube, let's call it TESTCUBE, would the total size of those tables be about the size of the TESTCUBE export to a flat file. This assumes that the cube is not compressed in any way. So if the the total DB table size is 100 MB then is the flat file about 100 MB? If not, is there a way to estimate this.
Thanks!Can't say for sure how all DBs that BW run on work, but with Oracle, space is consumed in blocks, not by rows/records.
Let's say you have a table where the average row width (record length) is 100 bytes. In a tablespace that has 8K blocks, in theory, you could fit 81 rows in the block.
However there is usually a certain amount of freespace left in a block when rows are added to accomodate subsequent inserts/updates. The BW tables I have looked at default this to 10%. So that means youe have over 800 bytes of the block that might not get filled. There are other things that can result in space being consumed, such as deletions that will leave dead space, and updates can cause a row to migrate to another block, etc. Also, space is allocated in chunks as a table grows, and you may add one row to a table that causes a 10MB chunk of storage to be allocated, but it is holding only 1 row.
So as you can begin to see. A flat export should require less space than the source table (unless you are using database table compression which could completely invalidate what I have said), but by how much depends on all the things I mentioned, and could change from day to day.
You could certainly use as a rough rule of thumb, that a flat file export will require the same space and you would be safe (except if you are using db compression). -
ITunes does not delete songs -- Send song files to the Trash for deletion
27May2012
Apple Support:
I have Itunes on an external drive. I put the (song) files on another external drive for storage becasue the itunes drive is full.
After copying the files, I tried to delete the songs. I had the option to keep the files or send them to the trash.
I selected the send to trash option, then went to the Finder to empty the trash.
The files were taken off the library, but the files were not deleted. My hard drive is still very full.
How do I delete the files -- remove them from my hard drive.
Anohter issue:
I tried the same thing earlier this morning. I may need to reinstall the songs on Itunes (once I get itunes to delete the files from the hard drive).
I appreciate any help you can give me.

I chose to let iTunes rearrange my files and it appears to have duplicated them in my computer's drive. So now I have the same folders/files directly under my D drive (second computer hard drive) and also in the iTunes Music Folder that iTunes created. Wasn't sure what to do so I did another import and now I have files in my library that are grayed out with the small i symbol in the circle next to them. I also have the working (bolded) files too. How can I clean this up?

No. All music that is mirrored in the cloud will be AAC@256 Kbps.

Along the same lines, if I "download" a song from my library to my iPhone, then plug my iPhone into my computer and sync the song file from my computer, will the higher quality original file overwrite the 256 one?
No, because with iTunes Match enabled on an iOS device traditional syncing of music via USB is disabled. All music management is done directly on the device.

Also, if I want to syncronize another computer using iTunes match, how can I get the higher quality audio files? Will I simply have to transport all of them by an exernal hard drive or thumb drive?
You will first have to copy the high-quality audio files to the computer, add them to the iTunes library then enable iTunes Match.
