Can AppleScript be used to write an audio mixer app?

I apologize for the total newbie question here, but I need to put together a simple app that can load in up to 8 audio tracks (either in mp3 or aiff format), adjust their individual volumes and output each one of them separately. By separately I mean simultaneously but NOT mixed down to a two channel stereo, I want each of the 8 tracks to have its own output.
I thought that this would exist as a shareware but apparently not.
I will use the output of this to drive an M-Audio 410 firewire external box which will then take these 8 channels and convert them to 8 analog signals.
Thank you for any help.
Bo

I don't think you can write an AppleScript application to do this, but you could possibly use it to drive another application.
I would start with GarageBand. You most likely got a copy of this with your Mac as part of an iLife package. It is scriptable, but I have never used it myself.
If you want a more high powered mixing application, you should check out ProTools. You can get a free version here. I'm not sure if it is scriptable, but it is Very powerful.

  • Why can't I use my Apple gift card for app purchases?

    Why can't I use my Apple gift card for app purchases? The Apple store sells iTunes gift cards, but I can't buy one with the remaining balance on my gift card.... Why won't you let me buy what I want to buy?
    Terrible policy.....

    No idea.
    Have you tried?
    What happened?
    Have you called and asked?

  • How can I just use a generic Realtek audio driver without "Beats Audio" interfering!?

    Beats audio is terrible! I just want to have a flat EQ with no stupid sound effects enabled. The only way I've been able to do this so far, is to uninstall the audio driver, and just use the generic windows one instead. But what I would like to do is use a generic Realtek audio driver, and completely remove Beats Audio from my computer.
    After uninstalling the audio driver that comes with my laptop, I tried getting a standard Realtek driver from their website. But when I install that, Beats Audio reappears! This is so frustrating! How can I uninstall Beats Audio? I want it gone forever! I can see from searching these forums that this is a common problem. But none of the solutions have shown how to just use a standard Realtek driver without this Beats Audio rubbish.
    Can anyone tell me how this is possible? I'll stick to the generic windows driver if I have to. But it would be nice if I could just use the Realtek drivers as they were meant to be.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply. But you've misunderstood the question. I know how to uninstall the sound driver and just use a generic Windows one instead. But what I'm actually looking to do, is install the Realtek audio driver without Beats Audio. Thanks.

  • HT5622 I recently purchased a use 2nd generation iPad. I was told the Apple ID is locked. If I re-set the iPad back to factory  defaults and erase all former info on the iPad. can I now use my Apple ID to install Apps and connect to my Apple Computer?

    I recently purchased a used 2nd generation Apple iPad. I was told that the iPad is locked because of Apple ID. I plan on erasing everything on the iPad and setting it back to factory defaults. Can I now use my personal Apple ID via my iMac to start it as it originally came from Apple??

    It is a brick! But I did somehow get into the iPhoto section and was able to find the Former owner that owned the iPad and was able to contact him VIA FaceTime. on my iMac. He was of little help because he was not the original owner, but he bought the iPad as I did from a huge supplier and i was able to contact that supplier who refused to give out any information about the previous owner. I had the iPad hooked up to my somehowiMac via the USB cable and went through the setup procedure to no avail. Then after pressing the Home button several times it somehow went to the iPhotos that were on the iPad? There were 2 pictures of the owners email address. I then copied them to my iMac and used iPhoto app to enlarge the photos. It worked.So there is a way,just takes time to somewhat hack into Find My iPad?Phone.
    Personally, it is not Apple's responsibility to protect customers of their personal DATA. With such a high security application. Then of coarse it is a great idea. Then again it is the responsibility of the former owner to wipe and rest the iPad before reselling it. This being the case like those sold on eBay and elsewhere that are ID Locked should not be allowed to be sold. Personally the ID lock is much like a VIN number of a car. In most states one cannot sell a car without the VIN Numbers. Somewhat the same thing should be true of ID Locks

  • Why can we not use available store credit to buy apps?

    Recently I decided to stop using my credit card with the Apple iTunes store, as it seems that everytime I make the smallest purchase, I get dinged 2-3 times for the same purchase, then have to deal with Apple to get a refund for the over-billing ect.
    I recently went out and bought a 100$ card and added it to my account. Worked great, been buying music left right and center, rented a bunch of movies. All great. Even love seeing my remaining balance right in iTunes.
    Havent seen any problems except for the fact that you cannot use said store credit to send a gift to someone - you must bill it to your cc which is a pathetic move if you ask me. But no big deal.
    But with the launch of the App store, I decided to try out an app or two.
    I am using an iPod Touch.
    Found a nice little solitaire game for 7.99$. A little pricey, but what the heck.
    But again, you cannot use store credit to buy apps?
    There is nothing I can find either on the site itself about the App store, or on iTunes, that says you can ONLY pay with Credit Card.
    I should be allowed to buy anything that iTunes offers, with the card I bought.
    Its called an iTunes Card. Not an iTunes Music Card. Not an iTunes Movies Card. Not an iTunes TV Shows Card.
    iTunes Card.
    That means if its available in my store (ie. Canadian), then I should be able to buy it plain and simple.
    Apple, get your act together and get this fixed. Bad enough you let Rogers dictate the cost of the plans for the iPhone 2.0 Launch, and lost hundreds of customers before you even launched the **** thing - dont alienate customers who don't want to use credit cards on the store due to the terrible billing system you use.

    You can give feed back to Apple from the iTunes drop-down menu in the iTunes menu bar..
    You can also contact the iTS Customer Service from the links on this page - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/

  • Can text be used for write-on effect

    I've watched Mark's tutorials on using a path to make text look like its writing onto the screen. But in those tutorials, its always a pen or mouse making a path which results in "dirty" text.
    Can you use clean text created with the text tool as paths for the write-on effect?

    Sure. Just type you text, draw paint strokes to cover it, then use the paint strokes group as an image mask to reveal the text underneath.

  • Can Java be used to write service/daemon at solaris?

    I new to solaris server side developement, thinking not go back to c/c++ on solaris, to write the system service or daemon. Can I use java to achieve this instead of c/c++ ? Or where I can find the samples / resources about this?
    Thanks,
    Ben

    There is no reason you cannot write a daemon in Java. The cloudscape database daemon that was shipped with the original Forte for Java is written in Java. You need to decide if Java can give the the performance you require for your service/daemon, however.
    You can find some examples and an API for writing Java Daemons at:

  • My kids are on my email account.  I want them to now have their own accounts.  Can they still use all of my music and apps?

    I have my kids' iPods on my account.  I want to put them on their own accounts.  Is there a way I can do this without having them lose all of the stuff on my account?  And can they still sync things that I download if they're using my computer?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your children are under 13, you should open 2 new accounts for yourself and let them use it. They can use these ID's for iCloud and so have their own email! contacts! calendars etc, but still share your original ID for iTunes for apps, music, etc. You can continue to sync them with your computer.

  • Why can't I use my Apple ID in the app store?

    I made an Apple ID and every time I try to log in it say your account has not been used in the app store and has me sign in and agree to terms and conditions then after I press continue a shadow appears we're a window should be and if I click on it sometimes it will have me chose where I'm from or Mr.Mrs.or Ms. But if u press out side the shadow it says do u want to cancel it.? I've re done this many times and still I can't download apps if anyone has an answer please let me know as soon as possible.

    do not worry,there are technical issuses,see the other posts:)

  • HT201469 If the iPhone 5s has touch ID, then why can't it use Apple Pay to make in-app purchases?

    They came out with a new iPad mini, and the only difference with the old mini and the new mini is that it has touch ID so that you can make in-app purchases. That's just about the only difference.
    Ok, well, the iPhone 5s has touch ID already. Why can't it be used to make in-app purchases?

    Yes, actually I did. There's no Apple Pay option.
    But there's more to it than that. If you look at the Apple Pay section of Apple's website, it specifically says that Apple pay will only work with the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, and Apple Watch for making in-store purchases (you know, actual stores), and with iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3 for making in-app purchases.
    So Apple's website specifically says that Apple Pay will not work for iPhone 5s for making in-app purchases.
    My question is, why? What technology is it lacking?
    I understand that iPhone 5s can't do in-store purchases since it doesn't have NFC. But in-app? Why not? It has touch ID.

  • Why can't I use Apple Pay to purchase iTunes apps?

    nfm

    It's not designed for that. It's for physical retail purchases where you go somewhere and buy things and can wave your iPhone over a terminal.
    The iTunes Store uses a saved credit card or other payment method, as does Apple Pay for that matter.

  • Can I purchase an iphone3g and then use it with the apple golf app as a golf gps without having to be on a cell plan or data plan?

    If I purchase an iPhone 3g, can I then use it with the apple golf app without having cell or data service?

    You do not need have cell service for the GPS to work.
    If the iphone is new, then you would have to activate it with a carrier in order for it to work at all.
    If it is used, then you can use it without wireless service:
