Gb3: problems recording and importing sound file to new track

since i upgraded from version 2, i can't record or import files into new tracks, including loops! anyone experienced this or have an idea what i could try to fix it? existing files still play, but nothing new will work.

The first two things I would suggest trying, in order:
o Repair Permissions
o Delete GB's prefs Files
. (Search your Hard Drive for "GarageBand" and delete the files that end in ".plist" and ".cs")

  • FCE4 and Sony 12E avchd recorder and importing mts files

    Hi
    I can import my sony no trouble and fce4 is excellent but what i want to do is to save all my sony data (mts) files onto an external hdd and then access these from fce4 ?
    Well i copied my files to the hdd but fce4 doesnt seem to recognise the mts files (they are greyed out) ?
    Is there any way i can do this ?
    Cheers
    Dave

    FCE doesn't work with mts files. Where did these come from? If they came from a camera and include the whole folder structure that contains the metadata they can be accessed from the log and transfer window. If not you might be able to convert them using Voltaic.

    I recorded audio with Quicktime player and the sound files won't disappear from the desktop no matter how I try to put them in the trash...tried xing out the red x, putting them in the trash...right clicking to make them disappear...nothing works...

    Just got rid of them... I closed Quicktime and was asked to delete. So I deleted them. Problem solved.

  • Having problems finding and importing actions I recorded in CS5 :(

    Hi. I've recently upgraded from CS5 to CC but I'm now having problems finding and importing actions that I previously had recorded in CS5. Where do I need to look to locate these actions, as they are still in CS5 when I open it.

    You export them using the flyout menu in the top right corner of the actions palette. Conversely, you load them the same way in the new version.

  • Set default import format when drag and drop sound file into multitrack view?

    I've looked around the preference panels but cannot find where to set the import settings for dragging and dropping sound files into multitrack view. Some of our computers have correct settings and others do not. Thanks for your help!
    G

    I should have been more specific, sorry... I mean bit depth and bit rate... On some machines this defaults correctly and on other machines it is wrong. Not sure how to set these to downconvert properly by default. Unless it automatically takes the format of the source file, in which case it's just been luck.
    Thanks,

  • Recording and importing Audio in 24Bit/48KHz...not working??

    I cant figure out how I can set my project to 24bit/48....
    I need to record and import Audio in 24/48 in my project.
    I've already set Settings/Assets/Convert audio file sample rate when importing.....but when I drag an apple loop from the Media/Loops....it doesn't convert at all......it still show 16/44.1 in the bin.
    I'm really lost here....and can't figure a way to set my project into 24/48. Am I missing something here? I use to be a Cubase user and Cubase does converts the files that I imported to my project.I understand that if I press control C in the audio file that I imported in the bin and that will change to what ever bits or KHz that I want to,but this isn't helping cause when I import the audio file, the file is already in the tempo of the project,but if I convert audio file from the bin.... the tempo will change due to the difference in Bit.
    Please help me out here...Thanks!

    Pancenter,
    Thank you for the reply. Yes, according to the specs on page 73 of the Mac Pro User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Mac_Pro_UserGuide.pdf), it is spec'd to record 24-bit @ 48 kHz & 96k Hz. Here is the text from that page:
    Optical digital audio in
    Based on a typical situation with playback of 1 kHz, 0dBFS 24-bit sine wave, unless
    otherwise specified below.
    Â Input sample rate: 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz
    Â Signal-to-noise ratio: Greater than130 dB
    Â Total harmonic distortion + noise: Less than -130 dB (0.00001 percent)
    Additional specs include:
    Optical Digital Audio Specifications
    Â Data format: Sony/Phillips Digital Interface (S/PDIF) protocol (IEC60958-3)
    Â Connector type: TOSLINK optical (IEC60874-17)
    Â Bits per sample: 16-bit or 24-bit
    Therefore, I interpret these specs as saying that the Mac Pro is spec'd to record 24/96 without the need for a third party audio card.
    Please reply back if you have a different interpretation or you concur with mine. I am interested as I have escalated the issue to the Apple's executive level and am open to being wrong if that is the case. In July, Apple Corporate Customer Relations informed me that engineering was able to duplicate my problem and are working on a fix. This month, Executive Customer Relations informed me that they are not able to address the problem at this time. I informed them that I consider Apple to be in breach of contract.

  • Why are system and application sound files appearing in itunes?

    Suddenly, over 900 system and application sound files, each about a second or 2 long, have appeared in my iPhone 4S music player. They've also appeared in my iTunes on my desktop iMac. Not sure whether they appeared on the computer first or on the phone first. I can't figure out why they appeared there or how to get rid of them (without also removing them from the system and applications which, of course, I don't want to do).
    I searched through the discussions here and found several other people complaining about the same thing, going back a couple of years, but no solutions offered. I hope someone can offer a clue.

    Thanks for the suggestions and help. While the cause of this problem is still obscure, we've managed, with an Apple tech's help, to remove the system/application sound files from both the iPhone and iTunes. We used Time Machine to backtrack to the point at which the sound files first appeared in the iTunes folder, then moved back one more day and restored the iTunes Media folder (where all the music was stored) and 2 iTunes files: iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Music Library.xml (we could also have simply restored the entire iTunes folder with the same effect). Then we synced the iPhone.
    As for the cause, that's still a puzzle. From Time Machine, we were able to determine that the files were added between midnight and 12:47 AM on a particular day, but that computer was not in use at that time (the user was asleep in bed, and the only other person in the house at the time was me -- and I don't touch that computer).

  • Record and play sound in SWF

    Hi List,
    I have developed standalone applications wherby i want the
    give the
    user an option of recording voice and then replaying the
    recorded
    sound. No need to save a file. Just record and listen.
    Is it possible to record and play sound in Flash swf-files
    without the Flash Communication Server?
    If not is there any third party component which can help me
    solve this purpose?

    No, don't think this is possible without Flash Media
    (formerly Communication) Server.
    Search these forums though. The question is asked pretty
    often, so maybe someone has offered a different answer.
    Cheers!

  • Importing sound file in premiere pro

    I am facing a problem with adobe premiere pro
    CS5. When I  import a sound file ( in this case is an
    MP3 file) using Media Browser and I place it on the timeline the file does not play. If I import it using File> import then it plays fine. I called Adobe and they told me that it is a windows permission issue. I was not satisfied with their answer so now they are checking on it to find a solution. I believe I should be able to import an audio file through the Media Browser without a problem. By the way I have windows 7 pro 64 bit system and I am the sole administrator. Also If I copy the file to my desktop and import it from media browser then it plays fine. I am confused. Could anyone help me with this? Thank you

    As well as being "the sole administrator" are you RUNNING the program as Administrator? (this is NOT the same!)
    Right click the program icon and select Run as Administrator from the options
    If that works, go back to the program icon and check the "always do this" box (not named that, not at my editing computer) so every time you start PPro you are using the Run as Administrator option (and, do the same for Encore)

  • Importing sound files in folders

    I want to import a number of sound files organized into folders to an iPod. No, they are not commercially recorded songs and no, they do not have any information in the "album" or "artist" field. They have names that do not have a lot of meaning in plain English.
    I would like to get them onto this iPod organized into the folders they are in. It would be a nightmare to try to reorganize them into "playlists" if they were all scrambled in the iTunes library and difficult for me to use from the iPod if they were not organized into the folders they are in on the hard drive. Is there some way I can do this?
    I seem to have recollections of using iTunes years ago where I could drag a folder into the playlist areas and it would import the files and keep them in that playlist. Is this my imagination? Would Apple have removed functionality from iTunes?
    What happens if folders are directly in the iTunes Music folder in the iTunes library?
    --Kenoli

    This is great. Just what I wanted, though it is not working for me. Also, when I drag a sound file into the library, it does not import it, though it will import it if I drag it to the title bar at the top of the library or into a playlist.
    Applecare thinks my application may be screwed up and wants me to re-install it. I'll try that. Incidentally, they didn't know you could do what you just told me. My sense when I call them is that they don't really know what they are talking about. In the past, I had much better experiences with Applecare.
    I have been using another application than iPhoto for photos that let's me organize my photos in natural folders and adds tags to the graphic files instead of in a proprietary file so they remain completely independent of the application. Do you know if there is an application for iTunes that lets me put stuff directly on an iPod in a way it can be played without going through iTunes?
    ITunes seems to be primarily a front end for the Apple Store and DRM control. I'm not even dealing with commercial music files and it all seems very baroque.

  • When I export a AAF file from Protools 9 and Import the file into Logic ProX the drum track is out of sync.  I created the drum loop using NI Maschine.  Has anyone else seem this??

    When I export an AAF file/project from Protools 9 using an external drive and import the AAF into Logice Pro X the drum track does not play correctly.  It is out of sync with the rest of the track.  I created the drum loop as a plugin using Native Instruments Maschine. Has anyone else had this problem??  Also how would I go about exporting the midi tracks from the Protools session.  The midi track does not show when the file is imported to Logic Pro X.  The midi data should export with the AAF file correct??

    Are you using any plugins in Logic?
    In Preferences/Audio  under the General tab, how do you have the plug-in-latency compensation set?

  • Need to play and stop sound file with 1 ms resolution

    Hi,
    I'm trying to open a .wav file then later play it at a time when another parallel loop activates a boolean local variable which controls playback in my "sound" loop. I need high time resolution in stopping the playing of the .wav file, ~1ms. From what I've gathered, I can't use the "sound output write.vi" because it locks the loop until it finishes outputting a set number of samples. Because of this, "sound output stop.vi" has to wait until the next iteration, which is more than ~1 ms.
    In the help menu of the Sound Ouput VIs it says you can set the task ID for the "sound output start.vi" using the "sound output configure.vi." Unfortunately I've only been able to use the "sound output start.vi" following "play sound file.vi", and I don't really know why this is the case.
    I can't start my sound with the "play sound file.vi" because it locks the loop its in until it finishes playing the sound. Oddly this only happens when there is a parallel loop running, if I run it by itself, with no other loops, it doesn't lock the loop. I thought it might have something to do with the local variable, but the loop doesn't lock when the loop restarts the sound using the "sound output start.vi." 
    After opening a .wav file, can i use the "sound output configure.vi" to create a task ID for the "sound output start.vi" to work? Or do I have to use the "sound output write.vi" after calling the "sound output configure.vi." The help menu makes it seem like the prior suggestion is possible.
    Thanks a lot!

    Since it sounds like the problem you're running into is getting the data loaded from the file before you're ready to play it, look at the Files sub-palette, specifically the Sound File Read Simple VI.  You can use this VI to load the data into a waveform and have it ready for use later in the program.
    So in your overall program, read the file with Sound File Read Simple and configure the output with Sound Output Configure and call Sound Output Write when you're ready to play the waveform.
