Logic taking eternity to re-index loops!

Hi, I just moved some files from my system HD to an external drive to save space.
When I dropped them to the Loop Browser to reindexing on this new location it take several hours to do that. Like the whole night!
The Progress bar don't show the current position.
What I'm doing wrong?

Wrong! Spotlight is not involved in making the Loop Index for the Loop Browser. Proof: I just turned OFF spotlight and reindexed 12 gig of loops in under 3 minutes after that.
The the OP: Have you really deleted ALL index files? Especially this one
YourHD/Users/'you'/Library/Audio
Try to reindex one folder at a time.
Also: What happens if you drag just one loop (from the external) to the index?
Is other data traffic between the external and your machine ok?
Let me know,
regards, Erik.

Hi Erik Sorry for taking too long for reply, had weekend concerts and got to be away from my Mac.
When I drag one file to the Loop browser it is copied to the system folder and gets properly indexed.
When I try to drag one folder, no luck!
Yes, I'm sure I deleted all index files from the system HD.
I read on other forum that when you are using a laptop you must have all your files on the system Hard drive. Is this right?
How can I turn off Spotlight?

    Any particular reason why you have a non-default value for a hidden parameter, optimizercost_based_transformation ?
    On my 10.2.0.1 database, its default value is "linear". What happens when you reset the value of the hidden parameter to default?

  • SOLUTION - Re-Index Loops when "Index Now" button is broken

    This message is for anyone having trouble with Soundtrack's loop indexing in the following way:
    PROBLEM:
    ... You want to re-index some loops, or
    ... You want to de-index some loops, or
    ... Some loops are showing up red
    AND...
    ... You cannot re-index from the "Setup..." button in the Search palette (the minus button and/or "Index Now" buttons are grayed out for some unknown reason)
    *HERE IS THE POSSIBLE SOLUTION:*
    ... Delete all files from the following folders:
    Library/Preferences/Soundtrack/
    Library/Audio/Apple Loops Index/
    ... Now restart Soundtrack, and click "Setup...". All the indexed directories should be gone.
    ... You'll have to re-add and re-index your whole library. This may also affect GarageBand and/or Logic, and require re-indexing in them as well.
    *If you're still having trouble...* there may be some more index files floating around your system. Open Spotlight and set "System Files are Included" and "File Name" in the search options and search for "search index". This should show you where any remaining Apple Loop search index files are located, so you can delete them. They will be named stuff like "Search Index E44B5969-5E4A-4E27-A3C2-E5861C5D1FB8.txt".
    Hope this helps anyone else out there. It worked for me with Soundtrack 1.1 when my loops were all messed up.

    Well, to add metadata and transients to sound clips you need to edit them in Apple Loop Utility which is included with Final Cut Studio.
    To add custom loops to your permanent library you need to make a new folder like "My Loops" and put it somewhere permanent like in Library/Audio/Apple Loops and then index it with Soundtrack/GarageBand/Logic. Soundtrack uses the "Setup..." list and GarageBand you can just drag and drop into the loop browser. Not sure about Logic but it should be something similar.
    If you wanted to edit the index files manually from the Finder, they are in some weird format and I don't think it's possible.

  • 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?

  • Logic taking too much time to execute

    Dear Friends,
    My i_bkpf internal table has approx. 3 lakh records another table i_del has 2 lakh records. I have to delete these 2 lakh records of i_del from i_bkpf.
    I'd written the following piece of code for the same but it takes hell lot of time and ultimately I encounter a timeout.
    Kindly have a look at the following code and suggest how can I improve it.
    sort i_bkpf by belnr.
    sort i_del by belnr.
    loop at i_del.
    DELETE I_BKPF WHERE   BELNR  = I_DEL-BELNR  AND
                                           GJAHR = I_DEL-GJAHR AND
                                          BUKRS  = I_DEL-BUKRS.
    ENDLOOP.
    Regards,
    Alok.

    Hi
    do like this
    sort i_bkpf by bukrs belnr gjahr.
    sort i_del by  bukrs belnr gjahr.
    loop at i_del.
    read table  I_BKPF With key BUKRS = I_DEL-BUKRS

  • Logic Pro X 2013 delete custom loops

    YourHD/Users/'you'/Library/Audio
    YourHD/Library/Application Support/Logic

  • Unable to create auto-indexing loop tunnel

    I am modifying a VI created by someone else, and in the block diagram there is a loop tunnel that is supposed to be auto-indexing. But when I open the file the loop tunnel is non auto-indexing and will not allow me to change it to auto-indexing (when I right click it says "Disable Indexing" but it is light gray and cannot be clicked on). When the same file is opened on another computer the tunnel is auto-indexing and the VI runs without any errors. How can I fix this problem?
    Using Labview 2013

    This normally happens when you install DAQmx before installing LabVIEW.  The DAQmx installer will autodetect what programming language support needs installed.  So you do not need to do anything special other than install the drivers after installing LabVIEW.

  • How to index loops on a MacBook Pro?

    I am on a MacBook Pro Laptop. I want to keep the Apple Jam Packs on my portable external 320gb Hard Drive. I try dragging and dropping them from my hard drive in into Garage Band's Loop Browser and it asks me if I want it to copy them to my computer or just leave them on the hard drive. I choose to leave them yet it just pops up a loading screen for 1/4 of a second and then doesnt do anything. I have tried restarting Garage Band yet it still wont work... So I need help =]

  • Loops Missing in Index (Loop Browser)

    I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I've seen no adequate solution. Whenever I add loops to GarageBand, whether Apple or third party, nearly 1/5 of them never appear in the Loop Browser. The loops are on the hard drive, precisely in the spot where they were copied, but they never appear in the browser. I've tried reindexing, but to no avail. I can drag them manually from their home folders onto the loop browser, but they then lose all their associated information (instruments and all key/tempo settings, etc.). Any solutions out there? TIA.

    and the time signature?
    It is hard to know the default time signature when I can't view it in the browser. There are vast numbers of loops which never appear. For example, anything labeled "Waltz" never appears (despite me selecting 3/4 time). Likewise, in the Orchestral Pack, the "Mystic" and "Victory" orchestra loops never appear, regardless of the tempo or key signature I set on a new song... I'm gathering that the latter two are 3/4, judging from listening to the loops in QuickTime.

    Why wouldn't you use standard functionality with *RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION?
    You'll have to call it multiple times since you want to translate into different currencies, but I think it will still be faster than this script.
