Add more tracks?

I'm working on a podcast that mixes video and stills.
I'm good with creating the video/still on one track, but would like more than 2 tracks for the audio part.
Is it possible to add more tracks in iMovie 6 (or iMovie 08)?
Thanks,
Luke
BTW: I've been doing my podcasts in Garageband, but GB doesn't give the option edit video (or mix video and pictures).

No, you are not going to get all of the tracks to play in sync or add them to your initial iMovie project. The two projects are separate. I'm saying that you can have a separate editing window, sort of a workshop, where you can drag things to and from your main project and work on them separately. That may not be what you want, but it's the closest you'll get to being able to work with more audio/video tracks while doing a project in iM6. The other posters offered additional possibilities.
IMHO, unless you're doing something very sophisticated with audio, it seems to me that it would be a lot easier to edit within iMovie than Garageband. But, it's a matter of preference.

How to add more track effects?

Basic Track allows only 4 effects "modules" in the Edit column at the right. Noise Gate and Compressor at the top and Visual EQ at the bottom cannot be deleted. So it's possible to add only 4 effects. Is that correct? I need more!

That's correct. If you need more, you'd have to export and re-import the track, of course you'll lose the ability to change the effects you used in the first pass.

I record multiple tracks (3-5) from real instruments and vocals. I want to send these files to a collaborator to add more tracks to, but Garageband wants to mix these down (which I don't want). How can I send the multiple tracks files to my friend?

I record multiple tracks of real instruments and vocals wth Garage Band. I want to share the file with a collaborator so he can add another instrument or two. I have not found a way to do this without the process mixing down the tracks. I don't want them mixed down like when I send them to Itunes. Also I can't seem to just attach a file directly to an email for sending purposes. I thought I saw a method to do this with software instruments, but how do you do it with real instruments? I've tried every process on the "export" list to try to accomplish this, without success. Thanks for any breakthrough advice on this!

As isteveus said - for large projects uploading to a server would be best.
Also I can't seem to just attach a file directly to an email for sending purposes.
But for completeness's sake , you cou can mail a project, if you ctrl-click the project and use "Compress xxx.band". This will compress the project and create a zip file, that you can mail (if it is not too large). But ask your friend for the maximal file size allowed as a mail attachment.
But whichever method you use to share your project, be sure you include all loops and instruments, if your friend does not have the same JamPacks installed. You can bundle the loops into the project by saving it as an archive. "File > Save as" and check the "Archive Project" option.
If this option should be disabled, you can force it to become active by editing your project slightly. It is only available, if the project needs saving.

How to add more audio tracks to my environment ? i forgot !!

Hi. I dont see this in the Logic Ref guide.
In my previous autoload (made through the initial setup assistant) , i had selected 24 audio tracks. My current project requires more tracks , how can i add more tracks to the environment in this project.
I havent done this in so long , i forgot.
In the Environment , i choose AUDIO layer , then New Audio Object , i'm lost from here on.....
Please help. I'll try and find this in the manual aswell.
Thanks a lot
Faisal

Hi
If you want to do it the easy way:
Go to the arrange page, go to the smaller menu labelled 'Track' and select 'create multiple' then choose what you want (mono, stereo or audio instrument). Voila.
This will add the extra tracks to your environment too. If it doesn't happen then check your audio preferences for max number of audio tracks and adjust accordingly.

Easy way to add more audiotracks??? + Environment midi/audio question???

Hi!
Let's say, when I open a new project I have standard 24 audio tracks.
But when recording I see that I will need more, is there an easy and fast way to add more tracks?
As I see it now, I Have to run the Logic Setup Assistent, add more tracks (let's say 40). Reopen the project, go in the environment, create a new audio object for every track I want to add, double click it and assign the correct track to 'channel'. If I need to add 10 more tracks I have to go over these last steps 10 times. Am I missing some handy quick trick here?
Also, the second part of my question:
when I open the environment window, sometimes it only shows "midi" and the "GS instrument drum mapped" and some other times it shows "audio" and an "overview of my mixer". This seems to happen at random and I don't know why. The mixer view is what I want (especially when I need to add tracks as mentioned before), but when I get the midi view I don't know what to do to get the audio/mixer view. Any help?

Ok,
There is a way so you wont have to do the 10 setups.
Run the Setup Assistant and when it asks how many
audio tracks you want, always tell it more than you
will possibly need. I use 101. I know I will probably
never use that many but they are already and waiting
in case I do need more. This way you dont have to do
anything except go to the track menu and select create
new or double click the arear below the last
track and what ever track is highlighted, a exact duplicate
will appear. Then you just click and hold on it to make it
whatever kind of track you need from the menu that appears.
This first answer takes care of the second question. Since you
dont need to go into the enviroment to hook up new tracks.
Just so you know if you click and hold on the name of the layer
Midi, instruments, clicks and ports or whatever another menu
will appear letting you choose what layer you want to go to.
This is the easy way!

Help..How Do I Get More Tracks?

When I set up Logic 7.2 I told it to default to 48 tracks, figuring I could always add more. Shows you how wrong you can be...
I had a big session of 56 tracks I needed to import from PT, and it wouldn't let me add any more tracks. So I went up to the hardware settings, changed it to 64 tracks, and it still wouldn't let me add any more. I quit, relaunched, still wouldn't. Am I hosed here? I thought you could add as many tracks as your computer would play back...
Thanks
Tom

Hey...I've tried the above mentioned solutions, but I still have the same problem.
I am trying to import 76 tracks from PT. Can only get LOGIC to open up 50 Audio Tracks in arrange. In Audio Prefs, I set the number up to 80 tracks, but when I try to create multiple tracks from arrange, it just says ' no more tracks available'. I have also tried closing the song and re-opening. also tried creating a new song session.
anyone know how to add more tracks?
Thanks!!

How do I add more than one video per track/layer?

Hi.
Could someone please advise me how I can add more than one video to a track/layer?
I'm cutting and pasting parts and each time I paste, a new track/layer is added.
The final video is going to be approximately 5 minutes long.
I am 17 seconds in and have 54 tracks already!
How do I stop this?
Thank you very much
J

More video tracks. This is actually what you want.
Unless you're just making a still image (like Photoshop), multiple layers give you control to animate each individually. (If it's just a Photoshop comp you're after, you may want to create it in Photoshop)
If you want to move ALL OF THE VIDEO TRACKS TOGETHER, you can use
parenting or
precompose those individual layers into a single composition.

Track Shipments in Mail add More services

Through the “data detectors” coded into OS X , Safari and Mail is able to detect a tracking number from USPS, UPS, and FedEx.
I wonder if I can add more Postal Office like DHL, china post, Argentina post,etc to track the shipments.
Thanks.

I think you'd need an app that has new data detectors.
The developer docs has the details that suggests it works from 10.7

Cannot seem to add more then 4 audio tracks

Hi everyone, I'm a new logic user and I just can't seem to add more then four audio tracks. If I keep going "track>create with next instrument" I seem to only add buses. I've been searching for answers in Orren Merton's "Logic Pro 7 Power" but I still can't seem to find an answer. Hope someone can help me, thanks in advance.
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Highlight one of the audio tracks, then in that same menu in the arrange window, select "Create Multiple..." then it will ask you how many you need....
If that doesn't do it, come back here for further instruction.

How do I add a tracking code to my page?

I want to add a tracking code to my page but iWeb doesn't seem to allow it. I copied the html code from a 3rd party site (Google Analytic) and tried pasting into the html widget in iWeb but when I check the tracking report it keeps telling me the code has not been installed. I have tried placing the text block at various places on the page and still no luck. The directions at Google Analytic tell me where I need to paste it into the html code but to do that I need an html editor or a text editor that can read html.
Am I doing something wrong with the html widget? If a tracking code can't be added with a widget is there a way I can edit the source code directly? A text editor, maybe? I tried Word but but it wouldn't open the page.
Thanks for any help!
Rikki

There's a way to add Google Analytic to pages without having to edit the page. It's a little bit of work but it's a one time process. Read about it here: http://www.wyodor.net/blog/archives/2010/05/entry_316.html
Or you could add StatCounter to each page to get not only the number of hits but lots more information:

How do I add more channels to my input source?

I'm trying to record my son's band on a iBook in the rehearsal studio, and would like to also do this type of recording on my iMac here at home, so how do I add more channels to my input source for simultaneous multi-track recording. Right now I am only getting 2 mono and 1 stereo channels.
Ultimately I would like to add the maximum amount (probably 8 tracks), and still be able to record simultaneously with at least one guitar, one bass, one vocal mike, and the drums on one mike...
According to Hangtimes/Garage Door website, this is a possibility, but first I must create more channels.
Please help. THANKS...

I would like to separately record each input on different channels simultaneously.
You might also want to check out the M-Audio NRV10, which is a hybrid analog mixer + firewire audio interface (with I think around 10 simultaneously available separate channels), which makes it very "band friendly" for both rehearsal and recording.

How do i allocate more memory to my iphoto application? i am unable to add more photos to my library i keep getting a pop up saying not enough memory in my application

how do i allocate more memory from my hd to my iphoto application? i have over 80 gb on my hard drive, but only 1.7 gb allocated to my iphoto application & i am unable to add more photos to my library. i keep getting a popup that says not enough application memory.

There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
Not enough memory for your usage pattern
Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
These instructions are for OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks.") The procedure may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
from the menu bar.
If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, remove the software. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
"Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

How to add more songs in library at a time?

i can only add up to 5 songs or less depending the size of the song, i think. anyone knows how i can change this setting? i look in the preferences and no luck.
HELP!!

There's no setting for this as it's not a built-in limit. If you can't add more than five tracks or so at a time, there's something wrong with your iTunes. If you can post details about how you're adding the tracks and exactly what goes wrong, including any error messages you may be getting, perhaps someone can help sort things out.
Regards.

More than one blank Insert Space? How do you add more?

Hello. I was curious how to add more blank insert spaces. Reason being that I want my Autoload to have 7 per track and that would give me room to throw an insert in the middle of the chain and then add more DSP Effects before or after the first one. Is there a way without making a dummy track for inserts and leaving one in like position 6 in the chain? Thanks guys!

Well, they just adapt. So a dummy will do, just put a gain in there or something.

Add more tracks?
