Adding to the loops folder/software instrument folder/components etc

i was screwing my whole GB system by messing with the entire folders labelled
like instrument library (dragging in a new one replacing the old one).
thus i kept getting "cant find application bundle".
the RIGHT/way to add software instruments, sf2's, components ( AU plug ins )
is to go to the folder that houses them and delete or add them there.
To add loops you drag the new loops over the loop area on the GB interface.
You do not replace whole loop folders with new ones. If i buy third party
or update computers that have additional software instruments i get them by
going to the exact folder that houses the SI's and add them there. Is this all correct? because this may sound basic but i have thousands of loops and alot of SI's and i must learn how to add these to additional computers or the same one?
please instruct me.

When I'm plugged into charge my phone and if I try to unlock my phone using the pattern security method what happens it when I try to draw the pattern it keeps acting like instead of sliding to the next dot it turns red like I'm lifting up my finger. And of course if you do that to many times it locks you out of your phone or you have to log into your email to unlock your phone. This is a minor issue all you have to do is unplug your device then unlock it. But I felt maybe Verizon needs to know.
These are some of the issues I have noticed again would like Verizon to know about them. Thanks for taking the time to read. I really hope I explained this so you could understand.
This is the only real issue I have had with the phone and I am not sure why this happens. I ended up changing mine to the code entry lock, which works well. My fear is getting completely locked out and having to do a factory reset. Other that this, I have had no other problems with mine.

Loops and software instruments not appearing in browser

Only a few software instruments appear in the software instrument list, even ones I have used before. Only a few loops come up also. Where did they go? They are in the GB folder in the Finder.

In the arrange window,dbl click on the instrument track you want,then the mixer window opens,again,dbl click on the instrument track(the button just above the out button below the I/O,{its the in/out area}) and choose from the drop down menu>choose mono or stereo etc,>logic>garageband
your Garageband instruments will be there,or should be.

OK,did you goto audio>loop browser ?I know its obvious,but i dont know how much you know so....that would be the first thing to do for the loops.

Question about Midi loops and Software Instruments

In past versions of Garage Band, I could take a Midi loop ("the green ones") and drag it onto a track with a different instrument and it would play with that instrument. For example, I could drag a loop of a piano melody onto a guitar track, and the melody would play on the guitar. In '08 though, if I drag the piano melody onto the guitar track, it changes the instrument for that track to the loop's instrument, in this case the piano. Is there any way to switch this function off? I find nothing in the preferences.
It's getting really annoying constantly dragging out loops and changing instruments to what I intend to have.

not to dissuade you from trying, you could always find something that i missed, but i did test the modifier keys, none changed anything (and the shiftKey prevented a drag from occurring at all)
as i recall, no matter what i did, dropping into a blank track changed it, dropping into a track that already had a region in it tossed up a warning dialogBox (i think it allowed you to proceed, automatically create a new track, or cancel the operation)
this does seem like a behavior that should have a toggle in prefs

How can i extend the library of software instruments in logic?

Hello!
I am working with logic express 8 and would like to assign software instruments such as clarinet and celli to the midi-files of my keyboard. Yesterday I couldn't find woodwind instruments in the library of logic so I started to download mainstage 2 - which seemed to extend the library of logic. But unfortunately some software instruments (for example cello...) disappeared and instead of extending my library in logic mainstage made it smaller... Can anybody help? And can someone tell my where do I get a clarinet and a cello? Thanks for your answers!
Yours Judith.
P.S.: I thought about maybe I have to upgrade my version of logic express to logic studio? How can I do this and do I have to pay the full prize of logic studio then? Sorry for my nescience! :-)

How to use new icons (gif images) added to the icons folder in forms 6i???

Hi all,
I have added some new icons images to the path:
\\FORMS60\java\oracle\forms\icons
Now how to show this icons on buttons at run time?

You mentioned your directory path as \\FORMS60\java\oracle\forms\icons, is this a local directory??? If it's a network directory make sure the directory is accesible by the user.
Try to create a local directory like C:\my_icons and put your icons in it make sure the directory you have your icons in it is listed in FORMS_PATH registry key string.
And make sure you icons are of .ico format.

Installation of Software Instruments and Loops fails because of Version

Hello, I'm right new to Mac, OS X and iLife.
So here's my problem: GarageBand Version 4.1.1 (248) wants to install the rest of software instruments and loops, but fails with this error message (translated from german):
Warning!
For this update GarageBand Version 4.0 or higher is required.
[Close]
After this, the installation application closes.
When I click a greyed loop in the browser this message appears:
At the moment iLife'08 will install the software instruments and loops.
Please be patient and look for the installation applikation in the dock.
[Close]
But nothing happens, no loops or instruments will be installed.
How can I fix this?
Thank you for any help.

Thank you for answering.
No, I have not moved the app.
Only thing I've done, was the software update.
Now I've tried out wether it helps, if GB generates a new Application Support folder.
I've renamed user/library/app. supp./garageband to garageband _org, and GB generates an new.
But the same error appears.
Maybe the Update to 4.1.1 is buggy?

Where do I find Loops folder in 10.9.2

I recently changed to OSX 10.9.2 and can't find the folder that holds all of my GarageBand Loops. My computer is a MacBook Pro... Thanks for your help... Harry

I went to ~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops/... Is there no longer one folder with all of my loops in it? I have over 3700 loops and if I'm seeing things correctly are they all broken up into many files?
I think, you may be looking at the System library and not the User library. The Loops folder inside the System Library "/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/" is organized by packages. My Loops folder in the System Library looks like this:
But the "User Loops" are still one single folder inside the library.
BTW the only way I could find the "Library" folder was by doing a search... Where does the folder actually exhist?
Startin with MacOS X 10.7 (Lion) the user library has been hidden from the user and is invisibly. In MacOS X 10.9 you can make it visible again:
Quit GarageBand .
Select the "Home" folder icon (the little house) in the Finder's sidebar and press the key combination ⌘J to open the Finder "View options". Enable "Show Library Folder".
Then open the Home folder - you will now see the "Library" folder permanently again.
Open the Library folder inside and navigate to
~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops/

I do not see the user interface for the Logic software instruments. I can hear them play through my midi keyboard but I cannot see them to adjust parameters. Please advise.

I do not see the user interface for the Logic Pro software instruments. I can hear them play through my midi keyboard but cannot see them to adjust the parameters. Please advise.

Couple of things - you can open the interface for any instrument or plug-in by double-clicking its insert slot on the channel strip. You can configure Logic to automatically open the interface for a plug-in when you first instantiate it in the preferences. Go to Logic Pro > Preferences > Display > Mixer, and check the box for "Open plug-in window on insertion".

Some Apple Loops refuse to index when dropped onto the Loop Browser

I'm hoping somebody has a fix for this odd problem. Some of the Apple Loops which came with version 1.0.1 refuse to index via the loop browser.
First off, I had to re-install GarageBand 1.0.1 after an invalid library error message appeared after upgrading to Tiger. The re-install wasn't completed totally and it did the same thing on 2 attempts. The next error message was: Apple Loops are missing, or something to that effect. I had to install the Apple Loops found in HD->Library->Application Support->GarageBand by dropping them onto the GarageBand Loop Browser at the bottom of its window. It indexed them, they appeared, and I was happy.
Today, for some reason, I looked through the loops folder mentioned above and noticed about one third of the loops do not appear in the Loop Browser, naturally some really neat stuff is missing! So I decided to drag & drop these Apple loop files onto the browser individually. It says it's indexing them, althought the guitar icon in the dock jumps while doing so, but they never appear and don't show-up in the search box either. They can however be dropped onto the Timeline from the Finder and will play as a music file. The problem is that I cannot listen to them from the loop browser for easy selecting when arranging.
Is there any way to get these stubborn Apple files to appear & play in the Loop Browser? I was hoping they could be added via the Timeline to the Loop Browser, but have had no success. Also, I tried the Apple Loops Utility thinking maybe the appropriate tags were missing, but can't figure out what is missing, if anything.
Thanks in advance for your help.

The Loop Browser filters what it displays by only showing loops in the same Time Signature as the song you've created, and within 2 semitones of the Key your song is in.
You can change the latter by tuning off Keyword Browsing in GB's preferences.

Deleting from the loop browser

Is there a way to delete loop names from the loop browser drop down list and the actual loops themselves? I inadvertently (sp?) added loop folders that I had bought and downloaded to the loop browser without first naming the loop folders being added. So I now have a few generically named "apple loops" in the loop browser drop down list. I have since renamed the original folders and added it to the loop browser. I now have 2 copies of loop names in the drop down list; the only difference being the generic "apple loops" as opposed to the specific name of the loop folder added. I'm assuming I also now have two copies of the loops themselves since the names in the drop down list are different, which, of course, means more HD space being taken up. I cannot find anything about deleting this. I can't believe there isn't a way to do this. Any help?

How can I get my ES2 loops to play correctly? I keep getting the message that the audio is not found when I drag the loops from my audio browser even though they play fine in the preview.

How can I get my ES2 loops to play correctly? I keep getting the message that the audio is not found when I drag the loops from my audio browser even though they play fine in the preview.

It's exactly as I stated. Whenever I try to drag these kinds of loops (ESX24 / software instrument loops? the ones marked in green with the white music note next to them) from the loop browser into the timeline a message comes up saying Audio Not Found for that loop. And a new track is created automatically when loops are dragged into the timeline, so I'm not creating some other random / synth instrument track so I'm not sure what the deal is... But perhaps I'll try creating a software instrument track first and then drag the loop into that track and see what happens - maybe there's something with the default settings that automatically creates audio tracks whenever loops are imported?

How to set female voice as software instrument?

I want to use the GarageBand software keyboard to play female vocals (to use in practicing pitch matching). I can't seem to figure out how to do this. Maybe there's a plugin I need?
I'm pretty technically competent, but a novice w/music sw.
To be clear, I don't want setting that optimize recording a real female voice. I just want to press a key and hear a female voice, in tune, that I can match the pitch of my own voice to.

Do you have the JamPacks installed?
In the Jam Pack "Voices" is a Software Instrument "Synth Soprano Solo". That is the closest you can get to a female solo voice with the ready made instruments.
The JamPacks are available as part of MainStage 3 bought from the AppStore.
Or create your own vocal instrument by duplicating a "Sound effectss" Instrument and adding your own samples to the scales.
Sing the scales once and correct the pitch with flextime to get it perfect. Export the scales as an audio file and reimport it.
Cut out regions "C", "C#","D". etc.
Create a software instrument track.and set it to "Sound Effects Instument". Safe the Instrument with anew name . Now modify the sound effects by dragging your samples to the corresponding keys and you can play your own voice perfectly in tune.
Safe your new instrument.
See this help text: GarageBand '11: Play sounds with the Sound Effects Software Instrument
You will see the sound effects you added to your custom instrument, when you hover the mouse over the keys. This will display the name of the sample the key will play.

Software Instrument Went Out of Tune - Please Help

I'm three hours into recording a song on Garageband. I've recorded vocals over a tune I recorded on the Blip Side software instrument (using an Oxygen-8 Midi controller), however Garageband crashed, I never saved properly, and now when I go back to the song, my Blip Side tune is completely out of tune which renders the vocals completely out of tune. I can't figure out how to get it back in tune and I'm worried it might be hopeless. I originally had messed with the Analog Basic settings on the Blip Side instrument and added a Tremelo, getting the insturment just how I wanted it and then I saved it, but now it's not the same. Thanks a lot for reading this and I'd appreciate any help I can get.
Ryan

Yeah, the entire instrument is out of tune. I've tried duplicating the track and recording on the new one as well as copying the recorded notes onto the new track. I've also tried re-manipulating the instrument settings to try and match what it used to be, but I have no reference for it other than my voice.
It sounds like every note I had recorded got re-interpreted as one ore two notes further down the keyboard, messing the whole thing up. The first chord is now two spaces down on my 15 key keyboard for some reason. What do you mean by transpose?

Logic X screensets do not remember 3rd party software instrument placement on second monitor screen

I open my Spectrasonics software instruments and place them in a location on my second monitor screen and lock the screenset. Then switch to another screenset and come back to that saved screenset and the 3rd party software instruments are stacked on top of each other on my main monitor screen.
This was not the case in Logic 9.

yep
Starting from an empty project, I added 2 Instrument channels (Omnisphere and Kontakt 5. Open both plugin GUI's, move dthem over to my 2nd monitor then Locked the ScreenSet (SS 1)
Switch to other S Set and back, K5 and Omni GIU's open where I left them (locked).
Close Project and then re-open... still works OK
