Arpeggios - why don't they playback from 1st beat of 1st bar ?!

Using an AU plugin synth in Logic 8 (say FM8 or Gladiator) with an arpeggio preset - why when i record into the 1st 4 bars of a song by holding a single note down and then quanitise it so it should start playing on EXACTLY beat 1 of bar 1 - do i hear NOTHING until the 4 bar region loops round to the beginning!!?
(i'm talking about arpeggio patches where holding a single note plays the arpeggio - so what i end up recording is just 4 bars of a sustained note)
This is so bizarre and aggravating - i always have to nudge arpeggios slightly to the right to hear them from the start of a song - please someone, is there a way of fixing this!??

thx for replying.....
if i shift the regions to bar 2 and then start playback about half a bar before the start then it plays fine - but this is SO lame!! Is there not an option anywhere to deal with this - maybe something that makes the playback head start just before 1.1.1.1 ?
in the pro studios 1.1.1.1 is never used..
Professionals requires a lot of SMPTE sync... for movies or for make MTV Music video of your song... or for Jingles...
h
have never see the number 5.... 4.... 3.... 2.... 1.... before starting a jingle???
usually the correct workflow is to start at 5.1.1.1... or later...
do you know somthing about SMPTE sincronization?
It's too annoying having to manually place the cursor at a point where it will actually play the arpeggio back! (also in cycle mode this is impossible - so even more hassle!)
I'm sorry but i think that it is not so annoyning...
in any case you can use Garage Band or other not Professional software.
hope this helps.

  • My UI preferences are set to identical settings in Illustrator and InDesign, why don't they look the same?

    My UI preferences are set to identical settings in Illustrator and InDesign ("scale to lower supported scale factor") and AI looks perfect, ID is too big. Why don't they look the same if the settings are the same? Driving me CRAZY. I have my windows scaling factor at 124% and it needs to stay enlarged, otherwise nothing else on my system will be readable. The inconsistency of the workspaces is so annoying.

  • Now that iPad has multitasking gestures, why don't they just add a gesture for going back and forward in safari?

    Now that iPad has multitasking gestures, why don't they just add a gesture for going back and forward in safari? Just like in a mac, with the multitouch gestures. The osx Lion got the launchpad idea from the ios, so why don't the ios gets something from osx?

    Send them feedback and make the suggesion. We're just fellow users here, we have zero control over anything Apple does.

  • IS IT IMPOSSIBLE? My iTunes library says 4149 songs, my iPhone says 4148 songs, and my iPad says 4147 songs.  Why don't they match?!  How can I fix it???

    My iTunes library says 4149 songs, my iPhone says 4148 songs, and my iPad says 4147 songs.  Why don't they match?!  How can I fix it???

    Yes. I selected all songs and checked them (in case I missed a few) and synced.  I have also tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it.  I tried selecting all songs and unchecking them, re-syncing my phone (which didn't get rid of the songs on my phone like i thought it would), then selected all songs again, checked them, and resynced again--nothing changed.  I went to the iTunes store and selected "Check for all available downloads" and it gave me the message"All purchases have been downloaded for this account."  I checked for duplicates, deleted a few and resynced.  This reduced the number of songs, but it still doesn't match what the iTunes library says...I don't know what to try next...

  • Why don't they add an update where there is a password recovery feature?

    ive lost many of my apple tech and its gone to waste losing finding them because i forget my password. why don't they have a system to recover your password?

    They do. If you forget your Apple ID password, you go to Manage your Apple ID and click on Reset Password and answer your Security Questions....
    Is that what you are referring to?

  • Why don't they have a 16gb 5g iPod touch?

    Why don't they have a 16gb 5g iPod touch?

    the reason is that people are using more and more memory so because the pictures are higher in resolution they use more memory with the retina display so they need the extra memory to store more photos/applications/movies and of course videos that you record.

  • Why don't they put how much usage each update will take.  I am on broadband and not sure if I have enough GBs left to do an update.

    I have broadband and it just cost me $75 OVER my monthly bill to download Yosemite and the update for iphotos.  NOW, I have notice that it needs two more updates.  Why don't they tell us how much data will be used with an update so we can plan when and which updates to do now, and some later?  The old system they had, they did tell and I was able to ration out which ones to update over the months. 

    It all depends on how much you'll use the iPhone for internet access. Personally, I use it frequently (work email, browsing with Safari, the Amazon.com app, etc.,) and I use 200-300 MB per month. My wife does not use her iPhone for much outside of email, weather, etc., occasional Internet browsing, and she uses 40-50 MB per month. So, you should be fine with 150 MB.
    Hope that helps...

  • Why don't messages deliver from Contact form

    I have just concluded moving a WordPress website from the /blog (www. kenapexvision. com/blog) sub directory back to the root directory (www. kenapexvision. com) of the site. Before now, I had built the contact form using Dreamweaver (spry validation). I adjusted the positioning of the fields for better page display from WordPress dashboard and cleaned up the "hints" and "spry validation" messages since they won't work on WordPress and then I set it up using formmail.php script. I also used a "thank you" page in the (formmail.php) script which I had hidden using "PC Hide page" plugin.
    Everything worked perfectly fine while the site was in the /blog sub folder until I moved all the content of the /blog folder to the root direct. Now every other thing is working perfectly fine - the pages and all other links, including display of the "thank you" page - after comment submission. However the message doesn't deliver to the email addresses set up in the formmail.php script.
    Please what could be the reason for this? I could use a contact form plugin as suggested by someone, but I want to use this method (formmail script) until I fully understand how the contact form plugins work.
    Please I need an urgent assistance on what could be the reason why messages aren't delivering from the contact form and how I could correct it.
    Thank you

    Yes, here is the link.

  • My question was how do you control bass and treble on your Mac pro? he act of the matter is you can't. Why don't they just say that rather than reading all of the ********

    My question was how do you control bass and treble n a Mac Pro with the latest software.
    The answer is you can't
    In summary why don't you say that upfront?
    Instead of reading a bunch of crap that says nothing

    just a suggestion: try soundflower or Audio Hijack Pro. I know with the 2nd one, you can control the bass, treble, and all that, with anything that makes sound, from itunes, to Safari, DVD player, Skype ( I guess) and other stuff. Worth the $, IMO, so in answer to your question  dbumgardner1, no, no you can't.  I suppose in that sense, Windows has us at a loss. We also need 2nd party stuff to play BluRay's, too. However, I haven't seen any Macintosh viruses (virii?) for a long long time....
    so, there's that....

  • Why don't the names from my address book show up to the left when I compose a message? They did in Windows XP

    Previously, when I clicked on "write", a column of names from my email address book would show up to the left of the message box and now they don't.
    When I imported the personal and collected addresses, two folders of each showed up: an empty "Personal Addresses Book" and the "Personal Address book" that I had imported. The same happened with the Collected Addresses. I wonder if this is part of the problem.

    Open a Write window and press F9 to turn the Contact Sidebar on.

  • I am trying to transfer photos from a portable device, why don't they go to I photo?

    I want to transfer photos from a portable device to my iMac. They don't seem to go to iPhoto, but as another file..I then cannot move them to iPhoto, and am struggling to then upload to my iPad! Any advise?

    It's possible the default upload location got changed from your device. Connect the device (flash drive, camera, phone or whatever you're using) then launch Image Capture (look in your Applications folder) then in the lower left you will see a small down arrow, click it then locate iPhoto in the box and you should be set.

  • Problem importing photos after the new Photos update:  When I drag photos from my desktop, why don't they don't replace the previously imported photos in "Last Import".

    When I drag photos from my desktop to the new Photos icon, they don't replace the previously imported photos in "Last Import".

    After several attempts, I now find that this is working for me.  I wasn't able to open the IMPORT folder in Photos until I clicked on "Close" from File Menu. Once I was able to open the IMPORT folder and select the photos for import, the new photos appeared in "Last Import."

  • Literally the worst customer support experience I've ever had to deal with -- Why don't they let their customers speak to supervisors on demand?

    Call 1: I spoke to them to see if I was eligible for an upgrade. It turned out they had accidentally counted a temporary phone switch to an old device as an upgrade. The representative was extremely slow minded and took over an hour to read through my notes and process what I was saying happened, consulting with his supervisor multiple times. He claimed to have noted everything and told me I had to go to a verizon store to verify in person that I was still using my original phone, and that then I would be able to get an upgrade immediately.
    Trip to the store: Drove an hour only to be told by the store rep that there were NO NOTES on my account about the issue and there was nothing he could do to help me and that I'd have to call customer support again. The store was closing in 20 mins and customer support seems to take 45 minutes minimum to resolve anything, so I left.
    Call 2: Asked a woman to speak to a supervisor about the guy who wasted 2+ hours of my life and gas money. She put me on hold for a long time, came back and said they were all busy right now, would I like to leave my complaint with her? I said no thank you, I will keep waiting. She said ok, and proceeded to hang up.
    Call 3: Asked a different woman to speak to a supervisor, she put me on hold for a long time and then told me that since I wasn't an authorized user I could not speak to one... lol ok. Had a family member call and authorize me.
    Call 4: Asked a guy to speak to a manager. He insisted on taking the complaint himself. Why would I trust someone to take a complaint about their colleague possibly sitting a few desks away when many of them have proven to be incredibly incompetent already? It sounded like we were making progress... then he hung up too.
    Call 5: Asked yet another woman to speak to the manager. She demanded a reason, I told her it was to make a complaint and she told me about a dozen times that the managers would just tell her to take the complaint. I insisted, she refused... finally I threatened to close all of our accounts unless she let me speak to a manager. She said they couldn't right now since the office was closing soon, but that one would call me within 24-48 hours. I'd bet my life savings that never happens. At that point I tried to talk to her about the original upgrade issue, and she said her system had suddenly crashed and that I'd have to call back the next day...  Seriously???
    Absolutely unreal how horrible their customer support is. Will be switching to T-Mobile immediately.

    Having worked in customer service, I have some experience with this kind of situation.  Reps are typically trained to make all attempts to handle complaints by themselves, because there are obviously many more reps than supervisors.  They're usually REQUIRED to fully authorize the account and to get the whole situation from the customer prior to referring you to a supervisor.  One of the biggest problems is that many customers think that demanding a supervisor is a way to guarantee you will get what you want.  If the reason for your request to escalate isn't a valid one, the supervisor won't give in to you either.
    There are plenty of times in my own experience, especially as a brand new rep out of training, that I took a long time to research and get an understanding of the issue.  Yes, I wasn't moving at light speed, but that doesn't make me an idiot.  It means I was trying to gather as much info s possible to try and deal with the issue. But I had plenty of customers tell me I was stupid and to transfer them to my supervisor, simply because I took longer than their patience could tolerate to get all the details I needed.
    I have never had a job that I executed flawlessly day in and day out.  Maybe you have and that's why you can't tolerate a person taking a little longer to wrap their head around the issue, but I'd rather doubt it.
    I also don't think you will find reps who work at light speed and utilize a magic wand to fix people's issues at T-Mobile, either, but I guess it never hurts to try.
    Just to clarify: I do not work for Verizon and never have.  I worked for a residential phone and internet company.

  • Why don't RAW files from iPhoto open in RAW CS5?

    I have dragged RAW files into Photoshop from iPhoto and they appear the same as the .jegs.  Also, in the dropdown camera info panel, there is no info other than RAW and the file name:(  I have a Nikon D5000 camera and am using OSX 10.6.6  All updates that could find have been done.  I am not techy savvy so I hope that there is an easy solution.  Thanks.

    I thought that it was preferrable to do editing on RAW files rather than TIFF for highest image quality.
    Yes, it is preferable to do as much editing on the raw files as you can including global and local tone & color correction in Camera Raw...but there is a limit to the work you can do and sometimes you must go ahead and render the raw file into Photoshop for additional work. Then you'll be needing layers and other functionality that can't be done on a raw file. At that point you'll need to save as a TIFF or PSD. If you work in 16 bit and a large enough color space, the TIFF or PSDs will still be capable of the highest quality...as others have indicated, the Photoshop .raw file format ain't for photography per se.
