Can i import a logic edl

i'm editing a multi-cam concert video. the musician is editing & mixing on logic. can i import an edl from logic into fcp that i can conform to. thanks.

"No" means NO! Yep, I'd tell him it simply doesn't work that way, and I can help him if he wants to follow a professionanl workflow, not if he doesn't. But, that's just me. I am not even sure Logic has an EDL export function at all. There is an FCP/XML function, which works "most" of the time, not all, I'd personally not rely on it as the origin of my FCP Sequence.

Can a song created on my Yamaha DGX 505 be imported into Logic Exp?

I have songs that I created on my Yamaha keyboard and saved as midi files on it. Can I import those to Logic Exp and retain all the tracks and settings so I can then work on and develope further on my Macbook?

Logic can load a stannard or GM midi file as long as you can get that file onto your computer. So the first question is has your synth got an export function that allows you to send those files to your computer? Even if it does you will not be exporting the sounds and effects of your synth but only the midi files. However logic can control your external synth provided you set up a multi instrument object for your synth in logic's environment. (See manual) Another way around this is to record the individual synth tracks into Logic as audio tracks. Properly recorded these should sound exactly the same with all of the synth effects and settings intact, but of course these will be audio tracks and not midi which means, of course, that you can no longer manipulate them using midi. You can however use all the audio plug ins in Express. Personally I would set up a multi-instrument object in the enviroment because, even though it's a pain to do this, it ultimately gives you way more control over the files. Logic's midi editors are VERY deep. Then, when you've got the tracks exactly the way you want them, record them to audio for further manipulation with the audio effects plug ins and mixing automation. Hope this helps,

How can i import tables from a different schema into the existing relational model... to add these tables in the existing model? plss help

how can i import tables from a different schema into the existing relational model... to add these tables in the existing relational/logical model? plss help
note; I already have the relational/logical model ready from one schema... and I need to add few more tables to this relational/logical model
can I import the same way as I did previously??
but even if I do the same how can I add it in the model?? as the logical model has already been engineered..
please help ...
thanks

Hi,
Before you start, you should probably take a backup copy of your design (the .dmd file and associated folder), in case the update does not work out as you had hoped.
You need to use Import > Data Dictionary again, to start the Data Dictionary Import Wizard.
In step 1 use a suitable database connection that can access the relevant table definitions.
In step 2 select the schema (or schemas) to import. The "Import to" field in the lower left part of the main panel allows you to select which existing Relational Model to import into (or to specify that a new Relational Model is to be created).
In step 3 select the tables to import. (Note that if there are an Foreign Key constraints between the new tables and any tables you had previously imported, you should also include the previous tables, otherwise the Foreign Key constraints will not be imported.)
After the import itself has completed, the "Compare Models" dialog is displayed. This shows the differences between the model being imported and the previous state of the model, and allows you to select which changes are to be applied.
Just selecting the Merge button should apply all the additions and changes in the new import.
Having updated your Relational Model, you can then update your Logical Model. To do this you repeat the "Engineer to Logical Model". This displays the "Engineer to Logical Model" dialog, which shows the changes which will be applied to the Logical Model, and allows you to select which changes are to be applied.
Just selecting the Engineer button should apply all the additions and changes.
I hope this helps you achieve what you want.

Can't import midi files in garageband 11 after lion install?

I can't import or open midi files in garageband 11 ,tried reinstalling from my app dvd, will not allow, it is grayed out was using snow leopard and updated
to lion and thats when it quit also my quicktime pro 7 will no longer export midi.

Same here. Now that I think of it, I recently put in Logic Studio 8 and Garageband didn't open on it's own anymore. That was iLife'06. I then up-graded to iLife '08 and Garageband still doesn't open to a new project. The only way I can still open Garageband is to make a "template" out of one of their demos, then when that opens I strip the tracks out and start with new ones. By the way, I just tried to install XLN Audio's Addictive Drums. They work in Logic Studio, but do not open at all in Garageband. Error message says the plug-in is not "valid". So much for Garageband being easier than Logic.

Recording songs on my PC laptop and importing to Logic/Mac?

I have a Mac desktop and have started using Logic for my recordings. I have a very fast laptop that is unfortunately a PC.
I was looking at this software called Mixcraft which looks like a pretty nice GarageBand clone for doing some recordings when on the road. The only problem is that there is no easy way of importing the project to GarageBand (or Logic), the solution being exporting every song file as AAC/MP3/etc and loading them back up in Logic/GB. This is, obviously, very annoying.
So my question is twofold:
1. Is there any PC software out there that will allow me to transfer its projects over to Logic and GarageBand?
2. and if not, is there a good recording software that works on both PC and Mac? I've heard good things about Ableton Live.. would purchasing a license for that allow me to install it on both PC and Mac and have the opportunity to transfer my projects back and forth?
I realize this is the Logic discussion thread but I couldn't think of a better place to ask this in the Apple discussions and you guys are without a doubt the most knowledgeable bunch I know when it comes to this stuff!
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You can buy an old Logic version for example 5.5.1 which was the last one for PC ( hope you can find someone on Ebay ). This will do the job I guess...
2. and if not, is there a good recording software that works on both PC and Mac? I've heard good things about Ableton Live..
There are many DAWs on the today market which are based for MAC & PC, so it is your opinion what to get...

Can't Import

Hello,
Problem: I can't import or synchronize images because they don't appear on the import screen. LR5 sees the card and the folders on the card, but not the images on the card. I have tried rebooting, reinstalling and copying the files to the hard drive with no effect. The images appear in LR4.
Here's a screenshot from the finder:
You can see there are a combination of raw and jpg files.

Can't import still images into a project or create a podcast track

I'd be grateful if anyone can explain why I can't import still images onto a track like you can easily do in garage band - in garage band you simply create a podcast track, then drag your photos onto it. However in logic, when I open the media browser i can get a photo folder up but it will not allow me to even look at the contents.
Also, why is it that the manual for logic express has nothing about how to import a movie to produce a movie score - and yet garage band can even do this.
Thanks for any advice.

Have you tried "Working with Video" section of the manual? It's somewhere close to the end...
Logic works with audio, not images. That's why you can't import a photo, because media browser is used to locate audio files, mostly. And sometimes video.
I guess it works this way, you create a podcast with Logic, bounce it to mp3 or another compressed format. Then import it into GB and insert a photo.

FCE 1.0.1 Can't Import "Original" JPEGs - FCE 3.0 Can !

Not a serious problem - just a puzzling quirk.
When I try to import JPEGs which have been produced by my digital camera, FCE 1.0.1 shows them greyed out and impossible to select.
However, if I make a copy (or in any way manipulate the JPEG) in Photoshop and save it, it shows up nice and black and can be imported.
FCE 3.0 works perfectly with either an original camera image or a copy.
Can anyone explain why FCE 1.0.1 behaves in this strange way?
What is the difference between the original and a copy? They are both JPEGs after all.
Ian.

Thanks Al.
I think this my be one of those mysteries like the Meaning of Life!
There seems to be no logical reason. The JPEGs from my camera are perfectly bog-standard and are recognised by everything including FCE 3.0 but 1.0.1 doesn't.
I tried to save the JPEG in Photoshop and it was still grey.
However if I use the "Save As" command the newly saved version can be imported into 1.0.1 with no problem. Somehow the "Save As" command must be imparting some subtle change in the format that 1.0.1 can detect.
This has no practical impact on my life because normally I will never use 1.0.1 for that - it's just that I don't like mysteries.
Ian.

What are all the objects can be imported and exported...

Hi all,
what are all the objects can be imported ..
and what are all objects exported....in XI..
and what is context objects and logical routing..
Cheers,
Raghavesh

Hi,
Your question 1 is not very clear. Are you taking about Export and Import under TOOLS --> EXPORT / IMPORT? If yes, all objects created in the IR and ID can be exported and improted. They are used for moving your objects from one environement to another .TPZ files.
Individual Objects that can be improted in the IR are those that come under
1. External Definitions --> XSD, WSDL, DTD which acts
as the message types.
2. Idocs and RFC's.
3. Imported Archives -->External Mapping progrars ( Java and XSLT ) , external .jar files etc.
Context objects is nothing but to put in simple words an XPATH. At times XPATH can become too long and complex and to avoid typing them at different places, you create CONTEXT Objects for these path and then use them.
Logical Routing refers to Conditional Receievr / Interface Determination where on the basis on some conditoon your target Recievr / Interface is determined.

Bhavesh

Can't import or Copy Environment Layers

Hi
Wondered if I could beg some help.
I'm trying to copy a layer from the Environment in one song into a new song so I can use it as a template.   I've tried importing the layer from within the Environment of the new song (using Otions->Import Environment->Layer) and also copying all the objects in the environment layer I want, and pasting them into a new song.
In both cases the objects are kind of copied, but none of the audio objects, instruments etc. are replicated correctly in the new song. For example - my environment layer has a bunch of Software instrument tracks, plugins etc. When I paste them into the new song, instead of them being replicated in the same form, all my software instrument tracks have been changed into output channels!
Can anybody explain why Logic does not correctly recreate the environment objects when they are copied or imported? This whole area of functionality seems to be broken, because I have used this in years gone by when songs have become corrupt and UI've had to rebuild them from scratch, and when creating templates from a particular song.
Many thanks in advance for any help.

I just looked at track import and all my multitimbral instrument objects with linked Multi Instrument midi objects are not shown at all, which means I'm unable to import them.   I guess this makes sense because they don't appear in the Arrange Window.
I can import all my MIDI, Aux, Audio and I/O tracks/objects but there's no point doing that if the MIDI tracks are not connected to the right instruments and the Aux channels are not being fed by the right instrument outputs.
Yep :-(

What I don't quite get is why I can't copy or import the environment layer.   That's the bit which is literally days and days of work to build, and which Logic should be able to import. Do you know how I would have to prepare the new project in order for this to work?
Unfortunately, it can be a massive amount of work. The Env import function has not worked properly for me for some time (can't remember the last time I tried it). The 'accepted wisdom' is that working with an old template (which started life in Logic 8, 7, 6???) can end up carrying forward a whole bunch of problems. It is often better, or safer (?), to start afresh.

You mentioned not needing midi multis anymore - can you explain what's replaced this? I use multis because I can assign an instrument name, icon and colour to each channel of the multi, which then appears in the Arrange Window. IS there a more elegant way of doing this that I'm missing out on?
It all depends why you were using them in the first place.
Back in Logic 7, for example, there were issues with Track-Based automation with some plugins and 'Host Automation' along with Multi-Outputs (for example Stylus RMX), taking into account how clunky Logic was, and is, with multi-timbral instruments. One solution for that was to setup a complicated Enviroment setup whereby you could 'automate' MIDI tracks that were connected to the SI channel.
With more recent versions of Logic, and plugins, particularly with the Host-Automation features, I am not so sure that all this is necessary anymore.
If all you need is a TrackName, an Icon and a colour, you can do this directly. The attached pic shows one multi-timbral instance of RMX:
(All this depends on me understanding your requirements correctly???)

OMF Files not Importing into Logic 7.2.3

Can anyone help me with this ongoing problem ? I'm writing music for a film where my editor is using the latest version of Final Cut Pro 5.1.2, I'm running Logic 7.2.3 on OSX 10.4.8 she exports the OMF Files....but I can't import them on my system. The files are imported without any problems at the mixers studio, but he uses Pro Tools.
Any Ideas ???

logic's import and export is very unreliable. actually it is something that i think is quite disgraceful. that said:
- are you sure that you have a self-contained OMF file in version 2 format? not a referenced OMF? you can tell because the OMF file will be large if it has the audio content embedded or small if it does not.
- most OMF problems are problems that come from the originator. for example, you can get problems if the audio is at different sample rates.
- try to get everyone to work with AAF files which are more reliable and do the same job.
- logic doesn't support different sample rates at the same time, unlike many video editing programmes. the audio should be consolidated before exporting and video references removed.
i hope this helps. this really is an area of weakness within logic. please post back with how you get on.

LE can't import uncompressed audio?

Is this true? You can only import compressed (mp3s) into Logic Express? I've tried to import a wav. and it comes out really slow and lower pitched.
If so, I don't understand why, I don't want to mix my album in LE if I have to compress everything to mp3 first.

Not true at all - where did you get that bit of info ? Logic has always been, at base, a 16bits at 44.1Khz .aiff file type of application. Long before .mp3 files became a fad. You need not work with .mp3s at all, I wouldnt and dont. Notwithstanding dithering issues where files are coming in at higher bit depths than the base standard Ive just mentioned above (such as 24 bit encoded files) - working in .aiff 16 bit/44.1khz has been the gold standard for years, and Logic is well designed for this type of file... If you are using Logic for the PC - cant tell you about .wav files unfortunately, this is a Mac forum.
I just tested my LE7:
1. select audio instrument track - then go to Audio menu
2. import audio file
3. navigate to a .wav file (have a bunch of these in the "EXS Factory Samples" folder
4. file plays back correctly
One way to test any media file on Macs is to drag the file into QuickTime Player (which all Macs have). If it dont play right there it will likely never play well in any commercial app. Perhaps your offending .wav file also plays incorrectly with QTP ?

How can i import contacts from another AIM account to this new one

If you reference my last ichat question, you will see that I have had serious problems and had to create a new account.
How can I import contacts from another AIM account to this new one??

Hi,
Use AIM for Mac and use the Export and Import features.
Other than that it is a question on making sure every Single Buddy has more than just their Screen name in the IChat Address Card so it is added to the Address Book and dragging them back from there

How can I import my old Appleworks spreadsheets into Neo Office or Pages

I am a new MBP owner and have some spreadsheets in Appleworks from my old iMac. I don't have Appleworks on my new MBP. I have downloaded Neo Office and could use it to create a new spreadsheet but can't import my previously created ones. Must I retype then? Or...as an alternative, I have iWorks. Can I import them into Pages? How? Thanks for any help.

The above suggestion didn't work for me. However, I did find this site that helped me--and it might help someone else:
http://neowiki.neooffice.org/index.php/OpeningAppleWorksdocuments
It worked for spreadsheet--now I have to try to convert a data base document in Appleworks.
