Best way to mix multiple songs with same template?

From what I gathered, I know I can save a particualar session as a "user" template, that way I can mix another song retaining all the same EQ, comp... etc, as well as arrange layout. Is this the best way to accomplish what I aim for? I've finished one song, now i am using a song from the same recording session, (same mic placement, and track assignment). Now, I want to start fresh with another song, using different effects and such, but I'd like to keep the same basic EQ and such.......
Let me know my Logic gifted friends!

From the Manual 272:
Channel Strip Settings Menu
If you click on the word Insert on any channel strip, the Channel Strip Settings menu
opens. This menu allows you to load and save the entire routing configuration of a
single channel strip, including all loaded plug-ins and settings.
The ability to save an entire routing configuration can be used in a number of ways,
such as:
• Setting up and storing complex multi-effect configurations—on any type of channel.
• Similarly, the configuration of a particular routing configuration for use with multi-
output software instruments.
• Copying a routing or effect configuration between Projects.
• The rapid creation of new Templates.
The Channel Strip menu offers the following items:
• Next/Previous Channel Strip Setting: Loads the next or previous Channel Strip
Setting in the list.
• Copy/Paste Channel Strip Setting: Allows to you to copy and paste Channel Strip
Settings between channels or Projects.
• Save Channel Strip Setting as: Saves the Channel Strip Setting, and allows you to
name it.
• Once you have created one or more Channel Strip Settings, a list of settings will be
shown below the menu functions. The active Channel Strip Setting is denoted by a
bullet.
So it recalls all the inserts and settings in 1 convenient preset (as well as if the track is M or S) but where it is routed or sends info is not recalled - nor Pan or fader, though there is a gain plug.

  • Best way to achieve multiple paths with quizzes using Captivate 6?

    I’m looking for the best way to achieve multiple paths and quizzes using Captivate 6.
    Here is the scenario: The learner watches general slides 1 – 3 and then chooses between Path A, Path B, or both paths combined.  If they choose Path A then they watch the A portion only and take the A Quiz only. Same happens for Path B and for the two paths combined. The learner would only have to go one path to complete the course.
    What I’m finding is Captivate only has one Quiz results page (even if you create two separate quizzes, it merges them). I was trying to avoid having three separate projects for the same module to keep it simple. I see if I have three separate projects I could use the Multi-SCO Packager to merge them for use on my Moodle LMS. But wait, I don't have the elearning suite, so I don't have access to the Multi-SCO Packager...
    My question is: What is the best approach way to accomplish this goal? Any recommendations?

    Captivate 6 has Branch Aware quizzing.  Turn on that option in Quiz Settings and then your Quiz Results page should only show results for the branch your user visits.

  • Best way to mix multiple camera angles from multiple performances?

    There has to be a slick way to do this, but I can't seem to figure it out.  I'm hoping someone can offer their advice on the best way to approach this project. (I'm using Premiere Pro CS4)
    I have footage from 2 performances of a high school play that I want to mix together, with 2 cameras used each night:
    Cam1: Friday Right
    Cam2: Friday Center
    Cam3: Saturday Wide Left
    Cam4: Saturday Wide Right
    I only had 2 cameras, but I wanted to capture 4 different angles that I could later mix and match.  The problem is that, as live performances go, you can't count on exact timing from night to night.  It's really simple to do multi-camera editing for one night with the Multicamera Monitor (painfully simple), which works great for the 2 angles that were filmed on the same performance, but if I try to do it with footage from different nights, it only takes about a minute for actions onstage to be so far off between the two nights that I can't switch between cameras with reasonable accuracy.
    Since I will be going back and forth many times among 4 clips, the ideal solution that I have come up with (but I don't think Premiere can do) is to have the ability to set markers or keyframes at certain locations that basically say "switch to MM:SS on camera X now" without actually trimming clips and overlaying them into a single video track.  So basically determining which camera is "Live".  This would let me do rolling edits without having to create a new clip every time I want to switch to that camera angle.
    I may be missing something very simple or over-analyzing something that really won't be that bad, but I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around the best way to approach cutting back and forth among the same 4 unsynchronized camera angles numerous times.  If nayone has a suggestion I'd love to hear it.
    Thanks,
    -keen

    Time - being in sync...
    Most performances like that shot ( for like a music video ) are done to recorded music ( lip sync and play to recorded music ) ..so timing stays the same to the music...  dont know what kind of performance you shot but this gives you an idea how tough it is to keep timing for music performances.

    If you can't just use one night as suggested earlier by Jim and Stan....I would say bite the bullet and just do what you dont want to do...
    make subclips ( trim clips or whatever ) and forget about rolling edits...
    You might want to consider putting stuff in 4 sequences... day 1, day 2, day 3, day 4...
    make a 5th sequence called "rough cut " or something...
    each time you take a "clip" from one of the 4 sequences move that clip up one video channel ( and copy / paste to your 5th sequence )..which then gives you a visual quick guide what you have USED from the sequences...so you dont waste time scrubbing through stuff you already put into sequence 5....
    You may be able to choose just ONE sound track from one night and just use THAT...and pick shots that FIT those moments in time OK from all 4 sequences....you can play with duration / time of a small clip ( as it is unlinked to the sound in this scenario ) to make it FIT better...but that would be very subtle changes...
    ps...I keep forgetting...some people use the camera to record sound instead of a sound mixer, recorder, etc...so if thats your case what I suggested at bottom of mssg probably would not work...using duration / time...unless its REALLY minor adjustment...hmmmm, maybe export just the sound from a single performance and try using that as your ONE sound file for the performance...I really dont know what you would do if you recorded sound with the cameras...as I would never do that I dont know what to suggest if thats the case...

  • What is the best way to manage multiple devices with one iMac - different users with seperate itunes accounts or one mac user with different itune logons and libraries?

    Hello
    I have just purchased an imac which I am very happy with.  In our household we also have two iphones (one mine and one husbands) and one ipod (my sons). We all have individual itunes accounts set up on our previous computer (not a mac). We have sepereate apps and music, although there may be the odd occasion where we would like to share a song (if this is possible) across devices.
    I am just wondering the best way to manage these devices using the new imac.  Should I create individual accounts to logon to the imac, then from within these launch our own itunes accounts and sync our devices with these.  Or should I be using one version of itunes, logging on to this with our different itunes usernames and storing things in libraries.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks

    I am presuming that we cannot share downloaded apps and music between accounts because of the copyright issue,
    Though I'm no copyright lawyer, as long as it's within a household, you can share content among users. Such sharing is, absent specific language preventing it not present in the iTunes Store terms of use, generally considered to be "personal use". So you can share apps and music amongst your users on your computer and with their devices. You just can't give any of that content to friends or relatives who don't live with you.
    What I am not clear on, it making sure that this appears in each itunes account - is it easy to find the file storage folders that match the itunes accounts and what would these be?
    The iTunes library and files are by default in a user's Home/Music folder. But you don't have to find the folder; in fact putting a file into the folder yourself won't add the file to iTunes. Just drag the file into the iTunes window. iTunes will copy it to the correct location.

  • Best way to show multiple copies of same data to different users

    Hi,
    I am new to configuring and using Oracle. I have an oracle db installed on a server machine and I loaded it with a set of data. I have multiple users who would all like to access the tables but they need to see unique copies of the data.
    What is my best approach? Should I create a new database instance? If so what is the best way to copy data to the new instance?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Each developer should copy from the 'base' schema to his own the tables he requires to do his work. Give each developer select privileges on the 'base schema' tables so he cannot change them. This way, the developer can refresh his data as needed on his own. Public synonyms for the base schema tables will enable developers to only have to copy tables they wish to modify.
    Creating a separate fully loaded schema for each developer is going to create a never ending load of work for you as developers will be constantly asking you to refresh their schemas. Alternatively, you could create an export of production on a schedule and let the developers do the import to their schema when they wish.
    Basically, these folks are developers and, IMNSHO, should be managing their own development schemas.

  • What is best way to manage multiple projects with limited HD space?

    I am running Premiere Elements 3 on a HP desktop with a 250 GB hard drive.  I also have a 500 GB external HD attached.  The main desktop HD is filled up with programs, photos, and current video projects for PE 3.  PE seems to work best when it can access files from the internal HD and not have to access them from an external HD.  Since I have many video projects going now, I cannot keep all the clips on the desktop HD so have put them on the external HD.  I used to keep just backups on the external HD, but now have to keep some of the original copies of clips and projects as well.  So when running PE3 I have to copy things back and forth to the desktop computer HD so I can run it without it needing to access the external HD.  This takes alot of time.
    Is there a better way to do things?  What is the best strategy for running PE when HD space on your computer is limited?  Do I need to free up much more of my 250 GB internal HD space so I can run all current projects from there?  And what is the best strategy for backing up my clips and projects.  Multiple external HDs?  Thanks for any advice on file and project management.

    First, welcome to the forum.
    I do just as Steve suggests, though for slightly different reasons. I need each Project to be portable between my laptop and my workstation. I have a couple dozen 1 - 2TB FW-800 external 7200RPM HDD's, so each Project goes onto one of these. Obviously with the size, I can group several normal Projects onto the same external.
    In my case, most of my Assets are stored on a NAS drive, and I will copy these over to the appropriate Project folder structure on the externals. If I have done Capture, those files will be in the Project's folder structure too. My stock stuff is always a copy, as will be my still images. Each Project has a root folder with its name and then appropriate sub-folders, i.e. Stills, Music, etc. below that root folder. All stays together.
    One trick for my case is that each external has the same exact drive letter assignment in the OS of each of my computers, so that external Z:\ is Z:\ on all computers. This must be done at the OS-level for all computers. I use labels on each external, so I know that I have Z:\, or Y:\ plugged in.
    For editing, this is not the most efficient way to handle Projects, or Assets. In a perfect world, one would have their OS and programs on C:\, their media on a RAID 0 D:\, their Projects and Scratch Disks on E:\, their Exports on F:\ and maybe their audio on another RAID 0 G:\. All original Assets would be backed up to maybe a NAS unit. This would give the greatest efficiencey, but would kill my portability. I pay a price in efficiency, so that I can spend much of the day by the pool on the laptop and then move the complete Project, along with all copies of all Assets and Scratch Disks upstairs to the editing suite. The workstation is setup like my ideal, but if I have a Project on it (using all of the resources of that machine and it's multiple HDD's), I cannot easily move down to the laptop - so I sacrifice the speed for the portability.
    One comment on using externals: FW-800 works fine for me. All of my newer external HDD's have that connection and each computer has either a FW-800 card, or ExpressCard. The use of eSATA would be even better, but I have a major investment in FW-800, so I have to consider that legacy. Someday, they'll all be eSATA, or whatever comes next. I found that FW-400 was too slow for me, so I relegated those older externals to just archive. Years ago, I tried USB externals, but found that I have problems with them, plus the connection speed was painfully slow. I gave up completely on those. I do not think that I have any USB only externals left. Goodwill got them all. I also tried to edit to/from my gigabit NAS and gave up on that because of the speed. It now is a storage unit for stock Assets that are copied over to the Project folders.
    If you have USB externals, give them a try. Just be a bit careful, especially if you have a faster computer, as that connection can cause problems if the data stream gets too big and too fast for the connection. Things will definitely go wrong at some point in a read/write cycle. Be very careful and keep copies of all irreplaceable Assets and also your Project files. Little is worse than having something get corrupted because the USB connection could not keep up. I've even had overloaded USB's shut down the entire system in a BSOD. Not very comforting, when you just completed 6 hours of editing!
    Good luck, and hope that some of this helps,

  • What is the best way to add multiple images with links into an email signature?

    I created an email signature with five linked images by:
    * creating new message
    • attached the image
    • adding link to the image
    • copied new email signature
    • under Preferences/Signature added the new signature
    It all works, but some of the emails bounced back. When we removed the images, the email went through.
    I  tried putting all the images into Photoshop and making it all one image, used the slice tool to create a link for each image and brought that single image into the signature, but that didn't work as separate links.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi Bob.
    So what I should have done on my PC for all my files is gone to the File menu and used the Package command which would have converted it into a file with the images in it so they wouldn't need to be relinked.
    From now on I will only be working on Mac (I gave away my PC) but I'm sure I could use a friend's pc (or at a later point install Windows on my Mac). But to use the Package command on PC I need to actually have the images in the correct folder on the PC right?

  • What's the best way to send multiple objects with a message?

    I'm considering using an ObjectMessage and storing a Map as the object. Each
              of the objects I need to send will be bound in this Map. Is this the correct
              approach?
              Also, if this is the correct approach, where should I store the constants
              for the Map keys? If I put them in the MDB consumer, it ties the client to
              the consumer and vicea versa. I guess I could declare them in my main
              interface.
              Thanks,
              Bob
              

    OK.
              But for what it's forth, if you were to need to put a Map in an
              ObjectMessage, you might find that MapMessage gives you similiar (if not
              better) functionality, the resulting message will be smaller, and your
              system may perform better. The various implementations of java.util.Map are
              pretty hefty objects to serialize, whereas a MapMessage (at least, the
              MapMessage from BEA JMS) has been optimized to be pretty compact and fast.
              On the other hand, the only kinds of objects you can put in a MapMessage are
              Java primitive types (int, String, and so forth), whereas in a java.util.Map
              you can put any kind of object.

  • Can iTunes sync multiple songs with the same name?

    My iTunes library has multiple songs with the same name (but they point to different files on the filesystem).
    Curiously when iTunes syncs to my iPhone it will only ever sync two of the files, even if more exists. I suspect what is happening is described below, but I have no way of verifying it:
    Let's assume I have 5 songs named IdenticalName, on the filesystem these are named IdenticalName.mp3, IdenticalName 1.mp3, IdenticalName 2.mp3, and so on.
    I suspect iTunes is syncing the filename without a number postfix, and the file with the "1" postfix and not continuing with the rest of the files.
    Has anyone seen similar behaviour? Did you find a workaround (other than renaming your tracks)?

    can you manually discover the new instances on the new server?
    Then just make sure the name that appears in Grid Control is different.
    e.g. prod.world is on server A and B. When you discover in Grid control, you can make it prod_B and you will see the latter without any problem.

  • What is the best way to manage multiple ipods using the same itunes?

    Hi Everyone
    i am trying to manage three different ipods through the one Itunes, all with very different tastes, not sure if I am doing it the best or easiest way so does anybody have a simple solution on what you're supposed to do, to keep it all simple!
    Cheers

    If you have created a new Windows user account you need to log out and then log back in with your original user name. By default each Windows profile will have an independent iTunes library.
    If instead you managed to create a new library within the same profile. click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key, keep holding until asked to create or choose a library. Click Choose and navigte back to your original which should be at <User's Music>\iTunes.
    Your question as posed was:
    What is the best way to manage multiple iPods using the same iTunes {library}?
    in which case Selected Playlists is probably the best approach. Simply create a playlist for each device, Alice's iPod, Bob's iPhone etc. and sync the device with the appropriate list.

  • [CS4] Best way to mix HD and SD?

    Hey guys, had some fantastic reading here that's done me a lot of good. Hopefully someone can help me out here.
    Here's the scoop - I'm working on a documentary, and we're currently trying to find the best way to mix HD and SD footage so that it's best presentable. Everything was shot on DV/HDV, so before we waste all the time capturing just to find out there are better ways to go about it, we wanted to see what others have done. Essentially, our narrative clips (think Masterpiece Theatre) are shot in HD, and we're using a lot of still images at a high enough resolution to work in HD. Only thing is, a lot of our interview clips are shot in SD, but in 16:9 so at least aspect ratio is the same.
    What would be the best way to go about this for consistent video quality? Would you recommend capturing everything in its native format, upscaling the SD footage as best as possible and exporting as HD? Bringing down the quality of the HD footage upon capture and just editing/exporting everything as SD? If you'd recommend upscaling, any advice on how to go about that? Appreciate all the help!

    Curt,
    I have never beaten him, though I do try often. Job well done!
    Now, if that lottery ticket is the big winner, the forum will suffer, as you head off to spend your $'s.

    PS - I agree with you both.

  • Is there a way we can change the path of the songs to an external hard drive when we move the songs over?   also, is there a way to delete multiple songs easily?

    is there a way we can change the path of the songs to an external hard drive when we move the songs over?   also, is there a way to delete multiple songs easily?
    I recently moved my songs over for hard drive space.  Really don't want to have to go back through each album, etc... to get that to work.
    Last time I tried making a "library" that didn't work either.
    On the topic of deleting multiple songs that are the same, is there an easier way then to select each one?
    Seems to me apple isn't user friendly

    Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
    A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
    Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
    Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.

  • Is there NO way to select multiple songs to go into a Music Playlist at once, vs doing it one by one?!

    Argh.  So irritating how something that should be very simple and intuitive results in useless calls to Sprint (my carrier) and BB. with endless holds, transfers, pasing the buck,and still no results.  Then I'm suggested to go to the Forums...you know...where other paying BB customers can try tp provide the IT support that BB apparetnly could care less to do for its paying customers?
    Anyway, I want to have multiple playlists in my BB Music so that when I host parties, I can play a particular type of music by selecting one of the playlists.  I was able to move songs to my BB but they only seem to move to the general Music Library (All Songs).  I was able to create Playlists, but it seems you can only move songs to the Playlist ONE AT A TIME.  There is apparently no way to select multiple songs to go to a playlist?  No way to move an entire folder of music from my PC to my BB songs, as its own separate sub-folder (i.e., Playlist)?
    I know I've been able to do this with other devices in the past. 
    Otherwise the BB Music Playlist options seems totally pointless.

  • What is the best way to sync multiple collections of contacts among multiple users?

    (I originally submitted this question under the "Mac OS X Technologies" section, but got no response. I'm submitting a duplicate here because this is where all the smart folks are! My apologies that my question is only partially related to OS X Server . . . )
    What is the best way to sync multiple collections of contacts among multiple users on iOS and OS X?
    For example, suppose I have three collections of contacts: Bob's, Sally's, and Common. I want Bob to be able to access and sync Bob's contacts and Common contacts, and Sally to access and sync Sally's contacts and Common contacts. Bob and Sally never need to access or sync each other's contacts. Bob and Sally would both sync and share contacts in Common.
    How would I best implement this? It's my understanding I have three options for managing contacts across iOS and OS X: 1. iCloud accounts, 2. Install OS X server, or 3. Install and manage Darwin CardDAV directly. Which method would best support what I wish to do?
    I am a seasoned Unix geek well versed in the terminal, so I am prepared to get my hands dirty as much as necessary to achieve what I want. Also, it is sufficient if syncing takes place over WiFi on the local network, in fact, that is desirable versus syncing over the cloud.

    Thanks for your reply Nick101. I see my example was oversimplified. When I say "multiple groups of contacts over multiple users" I'm really referring to N groups of contacts over N users.
    So I need to add Fred, who can access and sync Bob's contacts, Sally's contacts, and Common contacts, as well as Fred's contacts. Can I do it with OS X server?
    You mention you keep your and your partner's contacts administered locally. What keeps you from administering them through OS X server as well?
    I am guessing this can all somehow be accomplished with multiple contact accounts, but I can't find any information on the web explicitly describing this.
