How do you save customized drum kits as a usable choice in the drum kit setting selection menu

i've loaded samples from my own personal sound banks into the Drag & Drop Samples Kit and i would like to be able to save them as a customized drum kit so that i can select that particular kit when i compose songs in Logic.

Anyway, the overall, larger issue for me is the inability I have to choose and get non-Garageband instruments (largely orchestral) to play the Midi events given on various tracks. If my guess is correct then technically, orchestral instruments not offered in the standard Logic Pro 8 Garageband Mixer channel menu are referred to as external Midi sampled instruments - still, IMHO the process is not clearly spelled out in the User Manual.  The simple step by step process whereby a non-Garage band instrument, say an orchestral instrument, is placed in a channel replete with Midi event (notes) waiting to be played should be easy, logical and given in a simple to follow format, but is not.
What with all the talk of routes, busses, auxillary channels, GM devices, GM mixers, audio bins, libraries and audio files this Logic Pro User is confused to the max.
David,  you understand that this is professional software and is not necessarily meant to be easy but is in fact designed to give the professional user as many choices as possible, that's why it's in the Pro Apps section. You WILL need to learn about buses, GM Devices, Audio Bins, Libraries...etc..etc if you intend to use Logic.
That said, you are looking in the wrong place in the channel strip.
  May I offer you advice?
Go here:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/
Open "Exploring Logic Pro"  (a short PDF Document). Pay special attention to chapter 3. Also pay special attention to the included graphics of the channel strips.
I encourage you to read the whole document as it will clear up many things... even though it's a Logic 9 document.

    In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
    *do not clear the Site Preferences
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings

    How do you save PDF to a USB flash drive from iPad 2

    You can't, the camera kit connection kit which has a USB connection only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, and doesn't support the copying of any content off the iPad - you will either need to go via your computer.

  • How do you save a transformed image?

    Windows Store App 8.1.
    I have an image that the user has rotated, scaled and clipped etc.  How do you save the transformed image?
    There are solutions of the forums but these use the System.Media.Imaging library that isn't available, classes like the TransformedBitmap etc. are not available. 
    I'm playing around with this approach but the decoder throws a "The image format is unknown"; 
    imageManipulation is UIElement.Image.
    Any ideas on how to achieve the saving of a Transformed image in a 4.5.1 8.1 store app?
    RenderTargetBitmap rtb = new RenderTargetBitmap();
    await rtb.RenderAsync(imageManipulation, (int)imageManipulation.ActualWidth, (int)imageManipulation.ActualHeight);
    IBuffer buffer = await rtb.GetPixelsAsync();
    using (InMemoryRandomAccessStream ras = new InMemoryRandomAccessStream())
    await ras.WriteAsync(buffer);
    await ras.FlushAsync();
    BitmapDecoder dec = await BitmapDecoder.CreateAsync(BitmapDecoder.BmpDecoderId, ras);
    Rob

    Hi,
    You can use BitmapEncoder to apply transforms such as scaling and cropping, set metadata and properties, and edit pixels while preserving any unedited
    data. After transform the data, you can copy the contents from the in-memory stream to the original file’s stream and close all of the streams. That make you can save the encoded image to the file:
    memStream.Seek(0);
    fileStream.Seek(0);
    fileStream.Size = 0;
    await RandomAccessStream.CopyAsync(memStream, fileStream);
    fileStream.Dispose();
    memStream.Dispose();

  • How do you save voice memos

    How do you save voice memos, and use them as ringtones or text tones?

    From the Users Guide:
    Syncing Voice Memos
    iTunes syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPod touch to
    your computer. This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a
    backup if you delete them from iPod touch.
    Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it
    doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos
    app until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPod touch, it isn’t deleted
    from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from
    iTunes, it is deleted from iPod touch the next time you sync with iTunes.
    You can sync the iTunes Voice Memos playlist to the Music app on iPod touch using
    the Music pane in iTunes.
    Sync the Voice Memos playlist to iPod touch:
    1 Connect iPod touch to your computer.
    2 In iTunes, select iPod touch in the Devices list.
    3 Select Music at the top of the screen.
    4 Select the “Include voice memos” checkbox and click Apply.
    Some users have had to create the Voice Memos playlist since it did not get automatically created.

  • How can you save an app's data?

    Hi, how can you save an app's data? For example, if I want to switch some applications on my iPod with those were on my iTunes Apps Library, iTunes will force to remove the apps that was on my device and sync the apps that I want onto my iPod. But once the app is removed from my iPod, its data will be erased too, so, for example months later, I want to put them back onto my iPod, I will lose all the apps data and games progress. So, I just want to know the way that people save their apps data.

    Yo can't. apps are locked to the account thatpurchased them and in-app purchases can only be mad with the account that originally purchased the app.

  • How can you save a draft SMS on X3-02 ?

    How can you save a draft SMS on X3-02 ? 
    Can't seem to find an option to do this  ...  Lost message typed half way  when I got out of the editor to check the calendar.
    Am I missing something or has Nokians obsoleted this function on the latest S40 platform ?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi all,
    Like sudude here pointed out that's one way of leaving text as "draft" to message editor. Or you can also select Options > More > Exit editor to do the same. And, next time when you select Create message that previous text should be there as it was left.
    But there is also another option to start writing SMS's - with Notes application. Select Menu > Apps > Notes. Write a note and save it. Then for that note select Options > Send note > Send as message. Now your note is copied to message editor and you can send it or further edit and then send. Neat thing here is that when you use Notes application, text can be saved for later editing or use.

  • How do you save a report from VB?

    Post Author: calvin

    How do you save an updated Crystal Report (CRXI) from a VB.Net (2005) program?
    We're using the ReportDocument object model, not the CrystalViewer
    & it appears there's a SaveAs method but not Save.Worse, the SaveAs doesn't seem to work. I get a convoluted error message that essentially says the file is in use, even when I'm saving it to a new filename. (The file it's referring to is the copy of the original file in the Temp directory.) I can post a screen capture of the entire error message if anyone thinks it will be useful.
    Thanks.

    "Curiouser and curiouser. said Alice." I feel like I'm in Wonderland-the SaveAs works for some reports, but not for others. The task is to create an application consisting of a VB.Net program and a set of reports. The reports must be able to be run 'stand-alone' in Crystal Reports XI, and also to be run under control of the VB program. The report output is to go to PDF, not to be viewed online. It's absolutely amazing, to me, how little support there is for this type of thing. Why? Possibly it's considered simple-and it seems like it should be, except that some reports won't run under control of the VB program. When I got involved there had been a database change so the problem initially appeared to be running the VerifyDatabase command. (The reports being tested ran fine after they'd been fixed up in Crystal-but this wasn't expected to be the last database change so there was still a need for a programmatic fixup.) After running the VerifyDatabase command in the VB program the 'fixed' report couldn't be saved to verify that the report had been fixed-and it still wouldn't run. Now, I'm leaning towards the idea that the database change was a red herring. We've found some reports that have been fixed up but still won't run. Mostly they just 'hang'. If we get any output at all (usually after killing the application) it's the same record reported over and over. Anybody got any ideas?

  • IMovie crashed, lost project. How do you SAVE in iMovie? Where's the file?

    Just spent 4-5 hours building a complicated movie from a year's worth of footage. At some point, iMovie crashed. I think I lost all those hours of creative decision making, since I cannot see the file when I reopen iMovie.
    There is no "open" command in the file menu. There is no "save" command in the file menu.
    This would imply that Apple was autosaving for me to save me trouble. Hmm. I can save in almost every program I use, and revert, and save versions.
    How do you save a project in iMovie? I don't see save in the file menu, as has been the steadfast tradition of Apple applications since I purchased my first Mac in 1984. What in the blazes have you done with SAVE? It is so basic.
    Along the same line, where is the project file located on my hard drive? I would like to open it. Since I assume you have been autosaving to somewhere, could you please let me know where my file is saved.
    <Edited by Host>

    This just appeared to happen to me too.  I tried clicking on the file in Movies/iMovie Projects.  That didn't work.
    Then, I made a copy of the  file in a safe place.  I noticed it was 2.2 MB, so something had to be in there.  Next, I started iMovie and clicked the Project Library arrow.  The project was listed there.  I opened it and got back most but not all of the work.  It lost a lot of my audio changes.  Here's the thing.  I worked until about midnight, and then left iMovie up and running til noon.  You would think it would have autosaved the changes by the time I came back.  I suggest making your own copy of the file now and then, just in case.
