Looking for quicker way to change duration of file

Hello!
I work in a broadcast environment and we have just upgraded to Audition from CoolEdit. It was a much needed change and is much better, but there is one problem. When we are doing production, we are getting ads that come out to 29.2 or 28.3 seconds, etc. We need to be able to compress and expand our recordings. CoolEdit was able to shave seconds off within seconds, even with our longer programs that are running 3 minutes. Audition took 15 minutes this morning to take off two extra seconds. Is there a quicker way to do this?
Thanks!

The Stretch effect offers two different stretching algorithms:  the default, based upon iZotope Radius and the legacy Audition algorithm.  The iZotope algorithm is extremely high-quality and accurate, but requires a lot of processing and can be slow.  The Audition algorithm is significantly faster, but you may hear artifacts beyond certain stretch percentages.
I'd recommend taking some of the content you've stretched using the iZotope algorithm, replicate it with the Audition algorithm, and preview to see if you notice a difference.  If not, then you could consider using the Audition as the default for future projects which have a quick turn-around time.

    Importing and Exporting, but Numbers and Pages will not do a SAVE into other formats by default, and therefore have to keep using Export which is messy.

  • Looking for a way to change GTK2 colors in xfce

    I am looking for a way to edit the colors in the GTK theme I am using in xfce, the way you could in gnome2. Lxappearance allows for this but xfce doesn't read the changes from it when I change it though that.
    Can anyone suggest something that works? Preferable without having to edit configs by hand.

    It is discussed on the xfce forums but unfortunately that solution requires editing by hand. However it does seem relatively easy to automate. Writing a graphical program for those tasks is something you'd only have to do once.

  • Quick way of changing duration of multiple still images.

    Hello
    I'm putting together a slideshow of 76 images. In the browser they have defaulted to 10 sec duration and I need to get it down to 2. Is there a way of changing them all in one go or do I need to go through and change each one individually?
    Many Thanks
    Adrian

    BTW, You can change the duration of the stills directly in the timeline
    by selecting them, right clicking and changing the duration field to desired length.

  • Looking for quicker way to receive client's selection...

    Hi guys and gals.
    Currently my workflow is to export low res images and send to my client via Dropbox or We Transfer.  They pick selects, email me a list of file names, then I go through and find the files to work on.  There has to be a better way!  Is it possible to share a folder or collection with them and have them tag or rate their selects, then have that data transferred to me so I can bypass the "finding" stage?  That stage seems archaic.  Is this better achieve in Lightroom Mobile via Cloud or Web Galleries w/ lightroom?
    Thanks!

    You can certainly do it with Lightroom Mobile / Web.
    The process is that after syncing a collection to LrM, right click the collection in LR Desktop or go to the Share setting on the iPad/Phone. You mark the collection as "public" (it's not really, unless someone guesses a really obscure URL) and share the URL with the client. The client then marks favourites - ie selects - and can make comments (they just need a free Adobe account). These automatically flow into LR 5.7 which has a new Sort Order - latest comments. So sort the collection and select the favourites.
    Give it a try.

  • Quick way to change "Optimize for" setting when "mirror displays" is on?

    Is there a quick way to change "Optimize for" setting when "mirror displays" is on?
    I have two displays on my Mac Mini for totally different areas; I can't see the first monitor when I'm on the second. One is 1280x1024, one is 1920x1200. As I switch fairly often I'm wondering if there is a built-in or 3rd-party-utility way to quickly toggle the "optimize for" setting that is under "System Preferences" -> "Displays" -> "Display" tab -> "Optimize for:" dropdown box.
    As Apple sadly doesn't make a all-in-one keyboard / mouse - need one as one of the monitors is used for just a very comfy chair, so keyboard is on my lap - I'm using an Lenovo ThinkPad USB Travel Keyboard, model SK-8855, and some key cobinations, esp. with function keys, seem not to work on it. So something from the desktop context menu or that allows you to set the hotkey would be preferable.
    Thanks for any help,

    I'm thinking that, Display Menu from the Mac App Store will help.

  • Looking for automated way to test print PnP printer after install then delete

    At times we test 20 to 30 printers in a day. I am looking for automated ways to increase the efficiency of this. I would like to simply have the printer install using PnP print a test page then delete itself after the test page or on removal. Are there any settings that can be changed on the computer to change the PnP process to make this possible. I am currently trying to learn and understand the Plug and play process so that I may find out how to get started. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I spent all day Googling and doing side by side comparisons of my old and new systems.
    My display is a Dell U2410. It has several presets, including sRGB and Adobe RGB. I've been using sRGB.
    On my OLD system, (Win XP, PsCS2, DwCS4) there seems to be no distinction between color managed and non color managed apps, even on this wide gamut display. I could capture (digital camera) in Adobe RGB, open and edit in PsCS2, save as .psd, convert to CMYK for print, or convert to sRGB for SFW. All images looked identical and they printed and displayed perfectly. I thought this was normal, and seemed logical. This also seems to be the source of my incorrect assumptions. I was trying to get my new machine to behave like my old one.
    So I get this new machine (Windows 7, PsCS5, DwCS5) and now (still in sRGB display mode) all color managed apps appear de-saturated. Non color managed apps are OK. If I switch the display to Adobe RGB, color managed apps are OK, but non color managed apps are way too saturated. From my investigation, I believe this is normal behavior on a wide gamut display. I've tried changing the Control Panel > Display > Screen Resolution > Advanced settings > Color Management options, but to no avail. Either I'm missing something, or Windows 7 is doing color management differently.
    It seems my only option now is to use Adobe RGB display setting for Ps, etc. and switch to sRGB for Dw and non color managed apps. Or, have 2 separate files for print and web. I've Googled 'til my eyes are numb and still not sure I'm getting this. Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.
    Finally, I don't see an edit function here, so I can't remove my previous incorrect reply. Moderator, please feel free to do so.

  • Looking for a way to directly choose keyboard layout.

    I'm looking for a way to organise separated keyboard keys combinations (or single keys - the best) for every keyboard layout. I want to be able to choose layout directly. One unique key (keys combination) for each layout.
    One way may be smth. like setting a key to execute a command:
        setxkbmap -layout "us,ru"
    and
        setxkbmap -layout "ru,us"
    For keys setup in OpenBox may be used obkey, for example.
    In general it works. But in such a case, when not latin/english layout is the first one, or even single one, in the command's layout list, applications will not react on Ctrl-S, Ctrl-Z and so on. It do not depend on current layout, it depend on the first entry in last sequence to be used in the layouts list.
    I'm shure there are some other better ways to implement the idea. Please, give me advise: what a tool, or tool set to study and use?

    (just make sure that the changed layout doesn't break your keybind):
    setxkbmap -rules xorg -model pc104 -layout us -option
    Just change the layout parameters (and any other changes you need) for as many layouts as you want.
    Unfortunately, if the single layout, or first in the list layout is not 'us', but my national, GUI applications will stop to react on Ctrl-S, Ctrl-Z and similar things.
    Can it be fixed?
    Is it that Ctrl-[S,Z] don't work or that they change locations because the keyboard layout has been modified?  The first is a problem, the second is to be expected if you are changing the keyboard layout.
    Stack wrote:
    As I catch, for testing there is no difference between setxkbmap and xorg.conf. Also, there is no way to specify there layout specific switch combinations. In coma separated list of values for XKbOptions there is not binds to corresponding position in layouts list. All the combinations will do the same - cycle between layouts. http://www.xfree86.org/current/XKB-Config2.html#5
    Layout itself and layout switching mechanics are too different objects (or classes) in terms of programming. I'm not shure I'll be on a right way, if I'll decide to dive deeply into syntax of '/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg' and '/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/*' (mentioned at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … _xorg.conf ) and hacking of ready to use layouts. If I'm searching for a way to switch them only. Am I right?
    My suggestion isn't that you use the XkbOptions switch since this won't work for what you are asking.  Instead, I'm recommending you use a little keyboard shortcut utility, xbindkeys and use that to issue the setxkbmap command I mentioned earlier.  All you have to do is bind the shortcut to keys that don't change across keyboard layout changes (if you have a number pad, an easy solution is to use a modifier + one of these keys as it won't change).  This isn't a toggle like the xorg.conf edit, but can switch to any layout you choose to bind in any order you choose to perform.

  • Looking for a way to preserve better result when resize to a small version

    Hi,
    Currently I ask the designer to design a boxshot at http://www.datanumen.com/temp/psd/aar-2048x2048-new-revised.zip . The characters in the large version looks fine. However, when I resize it to a small version, then some characters in the header, such as “Advanced” and “Repair”, not only losing their details, but also seems to be distorted, like this http://www.datanumen.com/temp/psd/distort.jpg
    So, I am looking for a way to prevent this, at least these characters should not be distorted, like this:
    http://www.datanumen.com/temp/psd/aarboxst.jpg
    Maybe by changing the font, or changing the resize method.
    Thanks

    You have a number of layers linked, which might well be causing the distortion.  I had to use some font substitution so I hope I have it close. The V2.1 (which is one of the linked layers) is a touch misaligned with the box. Otherwise, try using a finer font for ACCESS
