Beginning-of-Song Marker?

I deleted some measures in the beginning of my song, and wish to eliminate the space there.
So, I'm looking for either:
1. A "Beginning of Song" marker that I can just drag right up to my first note of music, or
2. A way to select everything, including all the volume adjustments, so that I can drag it all back to the beginning, in one fell swoop.
Can anyone help me with this?

yes, in GB 3 or lower adding the curve points should be teh step after arranging.
if it's too late, this may help:

also, GB08 allows one to lock automation points to a region.

Can,t sync purchased songs marked Protected AAC audio file to Blackberry Link. Songs marked just AAC audio file O.K. Repurchased one song now listed as AAC audio file and now works. Any simpler way to do this with existing protected song other than re-purchase all of them?

wow, very nice review Makes me want to get a vision for myself.

Add the ability to randomly select a new background from a pre selected group of photos every time the player is turned on or each day.
I would love that feature. I can't stand useing my computer with a single wall paper anymore (I have 500 anime pics that i rotate between every 2 mins ) If you could make the vision rotate background every x minutes or every time the player is turned on, it would be totally amazeningly sweet!!!! (i might have to go out and buy one then :P)
I just hope that creative has better firmware support with the vision than they have had with the touch.
Once again, great review

Stubborn End of Song Marker

I divided a file/song into multiple regions using the "Split" command in the Edit menu, then saved each split region as a new file for burning tracks onto a CD. However, when I move the End of Song marker (the sideways purple triangle) to the end of the new region, it pops back to its original position, even after I do a save after moving it. This leaves about 50+ minutes after the region has played that there is silence.
For example, when I burn to a CD, I can only get one created song onto a CD because when exporting, it thinks it is a 60 minute song.
I've tried saving as a different file, copying and pasting into a new file, creating new tracks and moving the audio to the new tracks. Nothing works. I have done this with other songs with no problems. Any suggestions?

The EOS marker does strange things sometimes. Use the cycle region ("yellow ribbon") to exactly mark the section that you want to export!

Songs start after beginning of song and end before the song is finished. these are the same songs that are on my IPodtouch and they play in their entirety there. So what's the problem with listening to them on Itunes on my Mac computer?

The music on Itunes on my MacBook start into the song; not from the beginning. The song also ends before it should. I have this same music on my IPodtouch and they play from beginning to end. Why don't they play the total song on ITunes on my MacBook? Anyone know???

Hello flashgoddess
It sounds like you have a crossfade turned on. Check the Playback tab in iTunes Preferences to see if anything is selected that would give that kind of behavior.

How to add an upbeat note at the beginning of song?

At the beginning of some songs you have that first up beat before the first down beat of a 4/4. Is there a way to add this on an ipad version? Thanks for your help!

Hi Vamsi,
There are a few options ...
1) The one suggested by Prasanna
2) Loop through all rows via JavaScript and use the GridObject methods to set cell values and then perform an applet.refreshGrid( false )
3) Apply an Inline transform
4) Use a stored procedure to return the results and the totals as one recordset.
The stored procedure would be the fastest for runtime.
The Iniline XSL transform would be the second fastest. If you specify the XSL in a generic way, you may even be able to reuse it in other scenarios. If you hardcode the fields in the XSL, it would be a matter of simple code adjustment when you encounter a similar scenario.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Jai.

List of songs marked "skip when shuffling"?

I've marked a number of songs to "skip when shuffling," and I have no problem with that.
However, my computer's hard drive just crashed and I'm putting Humpty Dumpty back together again. I was able to keep the music (including some I'd deleted between the time of my last backup and the crash), but not the libraries and playlists.
And the things like "skip when shuffling."
So.. on my old computer, is there a way to get a list of things I'd marked that way? Then I'd get at least most of it.
I'd ask if there was a way to transfer the libraries, and I started to, but I'm going to go ahead and do some other cleanup, too, so what the heck.
Thanks!

If you need it, I have a script that creates a playlist of any tracks excluded from the shuffle, FindSkipOnShuffle.vbs, which:
creates a playlist "skip on shuffle" if it doesn't exist;
deletes anything in that playlist if it already exists;
adds any tracks that are marked as skip on shuffle; and
displays a message that tells you when it's done (because it's slow, taking about a minute to scan through 10,000 tracks, it's nice to know when it's done).
If you want to run this, just right click on the above link, save it to your PC, and invoke it while iTunes is running.

Set Beginning of Song

Is it possible to set the beginning of a song? In other words, how do I set the in point for my play range? I can't find this for the life of me.
Cameron

STP sets the begining of the timeline as the begining of the song. What you can do is highlite everything then move everything to where you want it, giving close attention to the track nearest the start. Or, export your mix and bring that mix in to STP as an audio file project and trim what's necessary off the front.

Beginning of song plays twice

I have seceral songs that play the first few seconds, and then start over and play the entire song. To make this as clear as possible: It is like I started playing the song, stopped it, went back to the beginning and played the song.
Does anyone have any idea what could cause this problem?

Just in case this gets a look -- I'll jot down what I am going to try:
Todays experiment -- backup the iTunes on the Windows machine and do a restore to a Mac Book Pro to see if that solves the problem. Maybe there is some kind of corruption in the database or some other file that this will repair.

Why is the beginning of song clipped off on export?

On export to iTunes, the very first bit of the song is being clipped off... almost a seconds worth... I also tried exporting to disc and the same thing is happening; Have I missed a setting? If I play it back directly from GB it is fine...
(GB8 OS 10.4.10 2 Ghz MacBook Pro 1.5G ram)

Ours is not to reason why, ours but to record or die! I've spoken to professional recording engineers who have assured me that there is no need to start on bar 1.
Having to start on 2 or any other bar because of the clipped start on 1 is not an indication of a technical problem. In fact they also start later than bar 1 even though they don't have to. It's just good technique to leave a little breathing room at the beginning of the song.
And even if it is a glitch, the only prescription is more cowbell! No, I mean the only fix is to start on bar 2. It's also helpful if you want to change the intro without having to move the whole song. I had the clipping problem the same day I bought the computer, so I doubt that it's a technical problem.

Music skips in beginning of songs

when playin music and browsing the web, the songs start to skip in the beginning. i have itunes 7.0.1.8 and enough RAM on my comp to do these things. anything i can do?

Took the phone to the genius bar and he did a complete erase and fresh reinstall of the iOS and it fixed my skipping songs problem.
Knock on wood, it's been couple weeks and not a glitch of any kind now. Very satisfying experience at the bar too. The genius gave me the choice, he would "Swap Out" the phone or try the software trouble shooting first. He left it up to me which is pure Apple style when handling unsatisfied customers. They truly have customer service down to a perfect science IMO!

Mini player time counter - count from beginning of song

ITunes 11.3 lost part of the time counter on the mini player. It shows how much time is left in the song, but it doesn't show how much time into the song you are (time from the beginning). I use ITunes to choreograph my Indoor cycling classes and it's important for me to see how far into a song certain changes in the routine will occur. It's also important to have this feature in the mini player as opposed to having to switch to the full player. Please put this feature back!

How to export comps as audio files that start at beginning of song?

Hi all
I'm a failry casual Logic user, looking for some insights from you experts out there!
Right now I'm helping out on an album project which involves me laying down various parts in a different location to the main project. Basically I'm getting rough mixes of the songs which I'm importing into my own Logic 8 project as single stereo files. Then I'm recording my various bits so that I can later send back individual wavs of each track I've recorded.
I've recorded various takes and made a few comps that I want to use for my file export. However, I haven't always started recording at the very beginning of the song, hence my audio regions don't start at the same point. I want to give the producer files that can be pulled into the main project with the exact same starting point.
I've tried poking around in the menus and the user guide to figure out how to do this, but without much success. I've tried "flatten and merge" on my comps, and have then tried drawing some "blank" regions to fill in the space back to the song starting point. I thought I could then glue them together and export as one audio file, but it's not working.
Before I get myself too tied up in knots, can anyone recommend a "right" way to do this?
Thanks a lot!

Thanks! I'll try that third option and see if it works for us.
I'd still like to solve this via option 1 anyway, as it could be useful in other applications (ie when collaborating with systems that don't support the timestamp feature).
The problem is that if I use the pencil tool to draw an empty region, it won't let me glue it to the existing recorded region. I get the error "Folders and Regions or Aliases cannot be merged."
Also, if I double-click the new region it opens in the piano roll rather than the sample editor, which seems bizarre. Surely you can't combine MIDI and audio regions on the same track?? This could be a clue as to why it won't let me glue these regions together though.
Note that in the file I'm currently trying this with, I've flattened and merged my takes, having chosen the one I want to keep. So, I no longer have the take folders visible (and actually, I don't know how I'd get them back if I wanted to, but I guess that's a different question entirely). My point being that Folders aren't in use here, despite what the error message says.

Skipping Beginning of song

I have just got my first Ipod a Classic 80 Gig. I have read in the forum people having trouble with their tracks skipping to the next song but I’ve not come across what mine is doing.
I am finding that it is skipping the beginning of the song, sometimes a couple of bars sometimes it just jumps in as much as quarter of the way through. If you go back and start the song again it is fine, if you go back and play the preceding song it will no do it when it come to the song it skipped before. I am finding it really annoying.
Most of my music is downloaded and then this has been imported into itunes (a package I do not like but that is a different story), the rest is imported from the hard drive from previously copied CDs.
Has anyone out there had a similar problem? Any solutions? I have reset the ipod a few times with no change, I have emptied it and reinstalled the music and no change. It seems to be a random problem, your listening away and fine then the next song starts in the wrong place.

I have noticed that the skipping only appears to occur on downloaded music not music copied from a CD I have (all my CDs have been copied to HD first and not via Itunes), I have not checked every album it would take days but I have checked three today. Two were from CD and one was downloaded, the two CDs played fine and the downloaded one was well crap, it skipped the beginning of three of the five tracks I played.
Any thoughts out there? I am running firmware 1.0.2 as updated by itunes a couple of days ago.
As a thought do I need to run my downloaded music through some other package to clean it up before itunes gets it?

120GB - Beginning of songs distorted after skipping to next track

Hey,
So I've had my 120Gb Classic for about 2 years now, and this morning it started to crackle and distort the beginning of any song that played after I skipped to them. I know that the Classics have a hard drive and not a flash drive like the newer, smaller iPods. I can feel the drive working away as the distortion comes through, is my hard drive going on the blink?! I hope not as it's out of warranty.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

IPhone 6 music cutting out at the beginning of songs

Hello, I have had every iPhone made so far. This problem started with the iPhone 5s. Music on my phone whether it was purchased via iTunes or from cds and imported via my mac will cut out the beginning seconds of songs. Its random, not every song. It might play 1 second of the song, then cuts out for 2 seconds then resumes. Ive tried redownloading music re importing it, restoring the devices, nothing has changed. This is NOT a streaming problem as all the music is physically on my phone, not in the cloud. I have tried closing out all the other apps on my phone as well. Any suggestions?
Luke

the ._ files are a reference file. (to an icon or the artwork, I don't really know) the reader in your car stereo is not set up to read Mac files apparently. The ._ files are hidden and don't appear when you copy to the SD, but the car stereo CAN see them and tries to read them.
I see these files all the time in Windows when I connect a Flash Drive, because I always have my folder options set to show hidden files and folders.
There's a Preference Pane called "Secrets" that allows you to see hidden files in OS X and you can remove the ._ files before you eject the SD card so they won't cause you troubles in the car.
