Lion kills SoundTrack Pro, DVD Studio Pro and Color

After installing Lion on my cloned boot drive FCP 7.0.3 runs but SoundTrack pro, DVD Studio Pro and Color return an error message indicating Lion can't run PowerPC programs. They also have a white slashed circle over them indicating they aren't compatible.
This wasn't a widely advertised restriction of Lion prior to its release.
I'm thankful I have a fully operating Snow Leopard installation.

I don't know why you would have the PowerPC-only versions installed on an intel machine? It's very weird, because they should be Universal. This may mean that you were running those apps using Rosetta under Snow Leopard, but Rosetta isn't installed with Lion. You should just re-install from the FCS3 DVD and the proper Intel versions will be placed in your Applications folder.
I just launched every FCS3 app under Lion and they all work fine, except for Cinema Tools (which unexpectedly quit.)

Installing logic studio 9, soundtrack pro and loops utility greyed out

Hi,
I'm trying to reinstal logic studio 9 and on the screen where you select and deselect the instal options soundtrack pro (and therefore compressor) are labelled as skip and greyed out not allowing select. The same is true for the apple loops utility. I'm pretty sure i removed all the files of previous instal. Anyone help?

nevermind i found this thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/10690183#10690183

Does Logic Pro X include replacement functionality for Compressor, Soundtrack Pro and Waveburner from Logic Studio 9?

Does Logic Pro X include replacement functionality for Compressor, Soundtrack Pro and Waveburner from Logic Studio 9?

No.. You can buy the Compressor (along with Mainstage) via the App Store as a separate download but STP and Waveburner are discontinued products. Some of STP's functionality can now be found in Final Cut Pro X...
Note: Mainstage, Compressor, Waveburner and STP were part of the full version of Logic Studio 2.0 (which also included Logic Pro 9 ) and sold for $999 compared to Logic Pro X which retails at $200...
The Apple loops/Jam packs that came as part of Logic Studio 2.0 now come free with Logic Pro X (and did so with the Appe store version of Logic Pro 9) .. as part of the additional downlaod

Soundtrack Pro and Compressor greyed out on installation

For some reason the option to install Soundtrack Pro and Compressor are greyed out when performing installation of Logic Stdio.
I had installed Logic Studio previously but ran out of disk space and so uninstalled the program, upgraded my hard drive and I'm now at the point of reinstallation - but can't install those two programs.
Here's a screen shot of what I get AFTER installing what I can:
http://www.btinternet.com/~wack/screen.jpg
Also, why do some of the programs have 'upgrade' under Action?
Thanks.

I tried Final Cut Remover, and still had the same problem. I am in the midst of using Pacifist and it seems to be working. Apparently Pacifist copies the compressed files to to your hard drive then extracts and installs the programs. It appears to be working, but I will let you know whenever it finishes if indeed it does the job...
It is free to try and $20 for a donation. It might be a bargain considering the time it will save me...

Uninstalling Soundtrack Pro and Loops

With the recent purchase of a MacBook Pro I also acquired the Final Cut Studio HD. I have run out of space on my local hard drive and in the process of cleaning it off and moving programs and files to an external I am looking to delete Soundtrack Pro and all of the Loops that come with that program.
What I am wondering is the best and safest way to remove these files without affecting the rest of the Final Cut Suite.
So if someone can clue me in on the best way to uninstall Soundtrack Pro, Soundtrack Loops, Motion and any program with Final Cut HD without affecting the others I would really appreciate it.
In a related question are the bundled software programs such as iPhoto and GarageBand located on any discs that come with the computer or would uninstalling them leave me without the option to reinstall them at a later date?
Thanks!
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8) 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo/2 GB SDRAM

iPhoto and GarageBand are on the Install discs.
Get the external drive and move your Final Cut files (not the app) there.
I imagine it uses lots and lots of space when editing. so make sure you clear out everything after you finish a project.

New Soundtrack Pro and Final Cut Pro Updates...

There's new updates for Soundtrack Pro and Final Cut Pro on Software Update.
They seem to have fixed the problem I was having with one of my giant old projects. I used to have to open one of the audio projects before my multitrack project would open, but now it opens just fine. So far so good!

Hi Collings,
Looks like there are two threads about the recent FCP & STP updates, so I'm posting my findings here, too.
I just found another thing that appears to be fixed in STP 1.0.2:
Batch normalize is working:
I have a bunch of aif files that I want to normalize. I opened one in the waveform editor, applied process->normalize (level=0dB), then selected File->Save as Applescript--this creates an Applescript droplet. Then I can then grab a whole bunch of audio files and drop them all onto this droplet and they all get normalized correctly. This is a huge timesaver for me. Before this update, using this approach to batch-normalize a set of files seemed to deliver unpredictable results, but I just ran a whole set of files through, and they all played back with a peak level of 0dB (and no clipping).
Here are the other things that I've noticed so far with STP 1.0.2:
Automation:
-In STP 1.0.1, Automation was not applied correctly on project sample rates that were not supported by the hardware (e.g. play a 96K project on a laptop built-in 48K audio interface and the automation was late by 2X) -- this is fixed!!! YAY!
-STP 1.0.1 did not handle long automation ramps across long periods of silence (it would sometimes cause a glitch at the start of the clip right after the automation ramp--there is even a support article about this)--it seems like they fixed this one, too.
Sample rate switching:
-I see an option in general preferences to allow me to disable the "Switch hardware sample rate to match document", and with this disabled, I no longer get audible clicks from my audio interface when I switch tabs. Plus, switching tabs seems faster to me.
Realtime effects and automation in audio file projects:
-They've added a warning to inform folks about the need to bounce realtime effects and automation to an action--if you are in an audio file project with realtime effects that have not been bounced to an action and you try to save, you get a warning message.
Has anyone else noticed any other fixes or changes in this update?

Soundtrack Pro and Final Cut Server....can you check-in/check-out?

Hello!
Just curious how the workflow is with Soundtrack Pro and Final Cut Server. We haven't used Soundtrack Pro, but have been thinking about it for Surround Sound projects.

You can check in anything into FCSvr, any type of project file or media file. Unlike checking in/out a Final Cut Pro project, with any other application, you'll need to check out the project file for that app, and manually check out all the media associated with it. Many folks will simply set up the STP, or Motion, or InDesign, or Illustrator project and it's associated media all into the same folder on their workstation. Then check in/out that folder as a "bundled asset". This makes a zip file in FCSvr that holds all of those needed files together. When you check it out, it's unzipped and places on your local workstation. When you check back in, FCSvr re-zips it and replaces the original on it's RAID storage drive.

I bought a second hand Macbook Pro and colorful stud
Only after a few months I decided to reformat it
Bad movie started here I did not get it with a disc and I come to install the operating system
And he asks the name of Apple's user ID financed had been bought Lion OS Now
And who sold me does not answer then I found the phone number of his mother
She said he lived in USA and paid him more than the lion version of the MacBook and now I can not install Lion
And I'm not from USA

Unless you go back to the original owner, yes you need to pay for it again.
You're entitled to the OS that shipped with the device from Apple, but if you don't have that media there's nothing you can really do. If the system originally shipped with 10.7 or 10.8 then when you boot it to Internet Recovery, it will automatically offer you that OS version (as the serial # is registered with Apple). If it shipped with an older OS, then you need to enter the Apple ID that purchased 10.7 or 10.8. You didn't purchase it so that's not you.
The options you have are to buy Lion for $29 US (I don't know the price in Palestine), or Mountain Lion for $19 US (don't know the price in Palestine either), and install from scratch.
And it's a good idea to know you have restore media before you reformat your machine.

Something has gone wrong inside my Soundtrack Pro and I cannot figure it out.

So I can record with any other program on my Mac Pro, including the voiceover inside FCP, but cannot get a clean recording from Soundtrack Pro.
Everything sounds like this - https://rapidshare.com/files/4143174674/Track%201%20Recording%20232.aif
I thought it might have something to do with sample rates, but didn't notice anyhting.
I was using a Shure SM89 shotgun mic recording some family members commentating on old family film. I was going into a Behringer 1202 mixer, and then out into my Mac Pro from the line-in. I assume I cannot fix these recording, and it was my fualt as I had my headphones pluged into my mixer and not into the computer.
Now anything I record in Soundtrack Pro sounds like this, although it records fine in other programs.
Any suggestions?

It is an analog mixer, and I have the main outs going to RCAs and then those paired down into a stereo mini jack going into my Mac Pro.
I actually have not messed with any setting in the program in a year or so, and it was working fine for that time. I recently updated to OSX 10.6 from 10.5, and I am wondering if that may have something to do with it?
Like I said this was working fine for the past year or so, and after that update I can no longer record anything usable in Soundtrack pro, all the audio sounds like the sample I provided.
That being said, I can open FCP7 and use the voiceover tool to record audio with the exact same set-up and it works perfectly fine, so for the meantime that is what I have been doing, and worst case scenario my MacBook Pro also and The FCP Studio installed on it, and I could always record to Soundtrack Pro through that.

Conforming in Soundtrack Pro and Exporting to Final Cut

Hello.
I have a question on the conforming proces.
After I have conformed my project in Soundtrack Pro, I export it to Final Cut. When it arrives in Final Cut, the audio is perfect, but for some reason it exported the video from the earlier project -- not the conformed project.
Does anyone know how to fix this and make it so that when the conformed project arrives in Final Cut, it brings both the conformed audio and the conformed video?
Thank you!!
Brian

hey there MHASH,
sounds like you're using Soundtrack Pro. this is the Soundtrack Discussion. you should post your question in the Soundtrack Pro discussion.
good luck.

Soundtrack Pro and Audio already altered in Final Cut

I'm just getting my feet wet with Soundtrack Pro. I have a project that was edited in Final Cut Pro, including keyframes to adjust audio levels in specific places in the audio tracks. When the project is sent to Soundtrack Pro, the changes that were made in Final Cut Pro seem to be ignored. Is there something I'm doing wrong here, or are audio alterations made in Final Cut Pro not passed on to Soundtrack Pro? I'm using Soundtrack Pro version 2.0.2 and Final Cut Pro version 6.0.5.
Larry

Hi Lorenzo,
I haven't encountered this problem, however it sounds to me as though the waveform editor is sensing that the incoming signal is too hot & is automatically pulling down the gain to compensate and overcompensating to the point where the audio is barely intelligible.
What I would suggest you try is:
Select All Command (Apple) A then
Shift Command L. This gives you a window that allows you to boost the level. As the signal is so low, try 100%. If the signal is still too low do the same again. The Adjust Amplitude Filters will appear in the Actions List to the left of the Waveform. This is a nondestructive process & each Adjust Amplitude can be toggled on/off by unchecking it so that you can do a before & after comparison.
All the best
Dave

Difference between Soundtrack Pro and the version that came with FCE 3.5

Would like to know what the important differences are between Soundtrack Pro 2 and v1.5 that shipped with Final Cut Express 1.5.

I would say it depends on what (if anything) you need to do when viewing the PDF files in one of those 3 applications.
Acrobat Pro: Provides useful tools in examining the document as well as making some basic corrections. These tools include Output Preview (color warnings, ink viewing, object inspector) and Preflight.
Preview: Has some limitations when viewing documents. Most notably, overprinting cannot be simulated but there may be others. Some transparency blending modes are displayed quite as expected either.
Reader: Lighter weight than Acrobat Pro, but I am not aware of any viewing limitations as compared with Acrobat Pro (and it does support simulating overprinting in viewing)

Transfering fcp 5 multiple audio tracks to soundtrack pro/ and 3 other ????

1. i wonder how to import multiple tracks from fcp 5 to stp and maintain these tracks in the multitrack format, not mixed down to two tracks.
2. i can't open a multitrack stp project i created in fce hd, into stp with fcp 5. i get the message, can't fine file??? when i click the file from the scratch drive, i also get the message that i need the apg ATI 9800 graphic card i used in my g4 with final cut express hd, but now i updated to g56 mac duel pro. do i have to att the ati card to my g5? and use this card instead of the g5 graphic card?
or can i use both the ati card with the gr graphic card, since i think that two graphic cards can be added to the g5?
3. i have a waveform file in stp that was made with final cut express hd, now i cant convert it to multi track, and i want to keep it since i filtered out background noise. how can i export it to fip 5 and reimport in into stp?
4. im a little bit confused about the mixer in fcp vs the mixer in stp. which is better to even out the sound from one sequence to another. also, to mix for tv sound, ( - 12 db), how do i do that with accuracy since the waveform varies... and jumps around from say - 15 db to -8 db? how does one find the average with consistancies, if possible.
i new to all this and would appreciate any help. thanks for any help any one can give me. ron hansing.

First up, learning STP is a great thing to do. You'll handle audio much better with it. Apple Pro Training Series, SoundTack Pro, by Mary Plummer, is the best way to learn it.
Back to your question. I did a basic tutorial that may help. It won't be out until December, but if you email me off board I'll send you an advanced copy of it. Shows how the work flow for editing multitrack sound from FCP into STP works. A bit to get into here, but it'll be a great start for you.
