Can I record two stereo tracks at once in Logic 9.1.1?
I've read many people's arguments as to why one may or may not want to do this, but I do - to replicate a specific effect. My only question (really) is: if it can be done, how?
In PT, I just press record enable on the two tracks, and I am recording as I'd like - in Logic 9.1.1 I have yet to discover if, or how.....
I've tried a number of arbitrary key commands when clicking on the second track's "record enable" button, but to no avail.
Many thanks for your replies

Why? Copying afterwards would yield the +exact same result.+
However, you can record two files at once: Create two audio tracks, the first takes the actual input and has its output set to say *Bus 29,* the second track has Bus 29 as an input, now you can record both tracks.
You can also use bus 13, 17 or 23. Or any other not yet in use.

Can alesis multimix 6 usb record two independent channels at once?
Hello All,
Bought the multimix 6 usb as a simple way to record two players in logic studio.
Cannot get independent control over channel 1 and channel 2, both are
recorded together?
Someone said USB cannot record independent channels that i need firewire?
DWRBryan did you look at the Firewire 410 and 1814?
Yes, I looked at the 410. They said "2 x8 24-bit analog I/O" but I'm not sure what that means because it also says "dual mic/instruments preamps w/ gain control (66dB available gain) and phantom power". So I understand that to mean it will only run two of my SE1A mikes and I'm not clear what the other 8 analog I/Os are. Perhaps they're line inputs that can be fed from an external mixer? That would be fine.
If I buy this gizmo, will GarageBand (or Ableton Live) allow me to choose any of the 8 inputs for a track, so I can record multiple inputs on multiple tracks simultaneously?
These are great times for home recording, eh? The 410 is only $300 at Zzounds.
I looked at the close-up picture at Zzounds. It shows 8 "Line Outputs" and two "Line Inputs" jacks. Surely this is a labeling mistake? I want instrument inputs. -
Garageband w/ Mbox 2 Pro help please. Can we record in stereo? Should we buy a different interface?
Hello all and thanks in advance for trying to help. I'll try to give all the details straight up so I can get direct answers. I appreciate your help.
(By the way this is my first post in the comunity so forgive me if I do something wrong).
The long story short:
- I sing in a 3 person chorus group in Japan.
- We recieved a Digidesign Mbox2 Pro from our manager. (She was told by an engineer in our production agency that we should be able to record easily with it)
- We recieved the MBox 2 Pro itself ONLY. No cords, no software, just the actual interfact itself.
- We bought: 1 Dynamic mic, 1 mic stand, 2 headphone adapter jacks, Stereo speakers, & 1 firewire cord to connect the Mbox2 to the Macbook.
- We could not find an AC power adapter of the right size, so we have no power adapter. The only power going through the Mbox is power coming from the Mac itself.
- We do not have an instruction manual or anything, therefor we don't have the product number or whatever we need to register the interface.
- We can't register, so we can not call the Avid company help center.
- We don't own Pro Tool software. We are using Garageband.
- We downloaded drivers for the Mbox2 online.
I think that covers it all.
Now, we finally have everything connected and the Mbox2 is working with Garageband. We can record but now the real problem is that when we playback what we've recorded through our speakers the vocal tracks only play through the LEFT speaker. The audio track and echo effect from the vocal tracks play from both speakers, but the actual recordings of our voices only playback through the left speakers.
What do we do now?
Is there something we can do to make it so that we are able to record in Stereo?
Should we look into starting from scratch and buying our own audio interface system? If so do you have any reccommendations?
Other points of interest (that may help):
- None of us play instruments so we won't be connecting a guitar to the interface or anything.
-We each have a Macbook laptop computer that we use. The OS's are as follows: OS X 10.6.8, OS X 10.5.8, & OS X 10.5.8
- The OS X 10.6.8 Macbook won't connect with the Mbox2 Pro.
- Mic specs: SHURE SM58 Dynamic Legendary Vocal Microphone
We are desperate need of help. Anything at all would be appreciated.
Thank you for your time.Thank you for your time and advice.
When I set the Input Source to Mono there is no sound coming from the microphone into Garageband.
There are 6 mono options: Mono 1 (Didgidesign MBox2 Pro) - Mono 6 (Digidesign MBox2 Pro). And 3 stereo Options: Stereo 1/2, Stereo 3/4, & Stereo 5/6.
The only one that produces sound from the microphone is Stereo 1/2. when I choose the other options no sound appears when I press record.
(The Mic is plugged into Input 1 if that helps at all) -
How can I record two instances of Addictive Drums simultaneously?
Hi, I'm having no luck with something I thought would be simple. I want to run and record two iterations of XLN Addictive Drums in two separate tracks simultaneously in Garage Band X. I play a Yamaha DTXtreme IIIs e-kit as the MIDI trigger. Because Addictive drums doesn't have enough "openings" in a single kit to accomodate all my cymbals, I want to run two iterations with the extra cymbals on an iteration. Unfortunately, no matter what I try, I can't get both tracks to record simultaneously, even though I enabled multi-track recording and armed both tracks. Help?

unfortunately, while GB can record many audio tracks, it is restricted to a single MIDI track at a time.
fortunately, GB offers "Cycle Recording," perhaps that will work for what you're attempting
turn it on in GB's prefs, turn on the Cycle Region button and hit record. each pass will merge with the previous one, so you could, for example, play kick, wait till the next pass to play the snare, etc -
Why is audition recording the stereo tracks unequally?
I just upgrade to 3.0 from 1.5 and I must say I have been racking my brain for hours trying to figure out all my problems. I found most by scrolling old posts but this one I cant find. After installing the program I opened a beat in the first track of multiview. I tried recording and I was having latency issues so I took the advice that popped up in a message prompting me to switch to ASIO drivers. I opened the audio hardware tab and selected my mic (02s) (samsung C01U). Now, when I record in stereo the volumes dont record evenly. The left ear records just a little bit louder then the right ear. On the bottom where the mic level are the top bar stays a precise amount away from the lower bar (about 2 inches). So when I record, the top level (left ear) records normal and the bottom level (right ear) in considerable lower. Doesn't sound good. I know I could equalize it using effects but I want it to record evenly. Anyone know how to fix this. I have VIA High Def Sound Card (I think...thats what it says under device manager) and windows 7. I was messing with the settings in my ASIO4ALL control panel trying to fix the latency issues so maybe I screwed something up there. What default setting should I put in the boxes in the ASIO4ALL control panel?

Have I been recording wrong this whole time?
Yes.
Do people record into mono mics often or do most people use stereo mics? Also why would stereo record equally in 1.5 but not in 3.0?
All microphones are essentially mono. If you have two of them closely adjacent but pointing in different directions in one casing (aka a 'stereo' mic), you will get some sort of stereo from them - depending on how good they are. The vast majority of people use mono mics for single voices though - there is no benefit from using a stereo one for this at all. And there is absolutely zero benefit in recording a mono mic in stereo - it just wastes file space, because both channels will contain absolutely identical information. In fact using a stereo mic pair for recording a single voice is counter-productive - you end up using the variable part of the mic's polar pattern on both mics (not so good), and the slightest physical movement of the vocalist shifts the sound in the mix considerably. This is way easier to control with a single mono mic - the only determinant of where it sounds in the mix is the pan control.
The reason you are experiencing a difference has nothing to do with Audition at all, but everything to do with using a different driver. The present driver for your mic only outputs signal on one channel in stereo mode - which is pretty ridiculous; it shouldn't even have a stereo mode! What you should do is select a mono input - which will say something like [01m] on it in Audition, and use that to record, using the pan control to position the sound in the mix.
In a properly set up stereo monitoring system, a mono source wil appear in a single (vurtual) location between the speakers, depending on where the pan control is set. If this doesn't happen on your setup, then you need to fix the acoustic conditions around the speakers so that it does, otherwise you won't have the faintest clue about what your mixes really sound like.
I'm sorry that this all sounds a bit harsh, but I'm afraid that this is the way it is... -
Can findText find two different objects at once?
I have written a script that finds all italicized words, then compares them to a character style that italicizes characters. If there are any italicized words that do not use the character style, the user is alerted.
Of course, not all fonts use a fontStyle that equals "Italic." Some use a fontStyle called "Oblique."
I was trying to figure out how the findText function could find two fontStyles at the same time. My solution was to realize that each find is an array. So I made two finds and the concatenated the arrays. The resultant array (here called myFoundItems) elements can be searched through to find any that do not have the correct character style applied.
My question is if the findText function can find more than two different objects at once or are we stuck with concatenating arrays?
Below is part of the script:
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
initFindReplace(); [This function zeros out anything left in the find/change preferences]
app.findTextPreferences.fontStyle = "Italic";
var myFoundItems1 = myDoc.findText();
initFindReplace();
app.findTextPreferences.fontStyle = "Oblique";
var myFoundItems2 = myDoc.findText();
initFindReplace();
var myFoundItems = myFoundItems1.concat(myFoundItems2);
Thanks,
TomTom,
The reason why you end up with an array of arrays is this: you define an array allMyFoundItems, then you iteratively collect other arrays using findText and insert ("push") these arrays into allMyFoundItems. Instead, you should use concatenate:
var allMyFoundItems = new Array;
for (. . .
var myFoundItems = myDoc.findText();
allMyFoundItems = allMyFoundItems.concat (myFoundItems)
If you'll allow me a further comment, you could formulate your test to check whether a fontstyle name contains oblique or italic in one line:
>if (arrFontStyles[k].search (/(italic|oblique)/i) > -1)
And as the script searches but doesn't change anything, there's no need to set the ChangeTextPreferences. Your script could then be stated as follows:
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var arrFontStyles = myDoc.fonts.everyItem().fontStyleName;
aa = findFontStyle (arrFontStyles);
function findFontStyle (arrFontStyles)
var allMyFoundItems = new Array;
var myFoundItems2 = new Array;
app.findTextPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
for(var k = 0; k < arrFontStyles.length; k++)
if (arrFontStyles[k].search (/(italic|oblique)/i) > -1)
app.findTextPreferences.fontStyle = arrFontStyles[k];
var myFoundItems = myDoc.findText();
allMyFoundItems = allMyFoundItems.concat (myFoundItems);
}//end if
}//end for k
return allMyFoundItems;
}//end findFontStyle function
As to formatting scripts in the forum, you can do this by wrapping your code in <pre> and </pre>. Also replace < with < (< causes all lines of code to be displayed on one line). You should also replace curly quotes with straight codes, and tabs with (non-breaking) spaces. I use the following script for that:
tf = app.documents.add().textFrames.add ({geometricBounds: [0,0,'700pt','500pt']})
tf.insertionPoints[0].select();
app.activeDocument.textPreferences.typographersQuotes = false;
app.paste();
app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;
sara (tf, '&', '&');
sara (tf, '<', '<');
sara (tf, '\\t', ' ');
sara (tf, "'", "'");
sara (tf, '"', '"');
tf.parentStory.insertionPoints[0].contents = '<pre>';
tf.parentStory.insertionPoints[-1].contents = '</pre>';
function sara (tf, f, r)
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = f;
app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = r;
tf.parentStory.changeGrep ()
Copy the text of the script you want to prepare for posting, then run this above script. It creates a new InDesign document, pastes your script into it, and makes all the necessary changes. Then copy that and paste it into the forum.

Can you open two seperate apps at once?
Can you have two separate apps open at once?
Yes and no. When you open other apps they are all still open in the back ground. You can quickly access them by double tapping the home button to display the multi tasking bar. Also you can quickly access the last used app by swiping with four fingers from right to left or accessing the multi tasking bar by doing a four finger swipe upwards.

HT2499 How can I watch a movie and have two subtitle tracks at once?
How can I watch a DVD using Mountain Lion's DVD player with multiple subtitle tracks, such as english and chinese, simultaineously?
This will depend on the media player. I do not believe DVD Player in OS X offers this, and don't think even versatile players like VLC or MPlayer support it. Most give you the option for one subtitle track at a time.
One option is to use a transencoder like Handbrake to rip the DVD and "burn in" one of the subtitle tracks but include the others. This way the burned in one will always display, and you can then enable the second one. It's a bit of a workaround, but will ultimately do what you're looking for. -
Can't record software instrument track to an audio track
I'm frustrated at the moment. I'm sure this has worked before.
I have a project that contains external MIDI tracks, software instrument tracks and Garageband instrument tracks. All tracks play when I unmute them. The external ones play thru a Roland synth and audio comes back via ADAT thru my Firestudio interface.
I created an audio track for each MIDI track. I can record the output of each synth track as audio one at a time. But if I unmute one software instrument track, send it's output to channel 1 and 2, set the inputs of my record-enabled track to 1 and two I get no audio recorded. I know it's gotta be something simple that's wrong, but can't figger it out.If you want to record an internal software instrument to audio you can just select the track and use the "export track as audio" command from the file menu. Or you can select the regions and use the bounce in place feature or solo the instrument in question and use the bounce command and import the resulting file. Logics INPUTs 1 and 2 are not the same as Logic's OUTPUTS 1 and 2. If they were you'd get a feedback loop. If you are careful and MUST do it this way, you can cable from outs 1&2 to inputs 1&2 but you must first disable the output the track you are recording on to to avoid feedback.

HT1311 Can I have two ITunes accounts at once. For example one for Canada and the other for France?
Would someone be able to tell me if I can maintain two I tunes accounts at once. We like to downloads movies from the French Itunes movie site but would also like to keep at the same time our Canadian account. I'm not to keen on having to cancel one account in order to access another.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't keep changing accounts in iTunes, you will need to wait 90 days after changing once. You would need to use two computers or use two user accounts. -
Problem recording 2 instrument tracks at once - new user
I want to simultaneously record an EXS24 bass with my left hand and an EVP88 piano with my right.
So I:
check "Auto demix by channel...." in the "Settings/Recording/MIDI" page
set each track to its correct MIDI channel
arm both tracks to record
select track 1 or 2 in the arrangement window
record the two tracks, playing both hands together on the downbeat
The first note played on the un-selected track is always delayed noticeably, throwing my playing off. I have a couple of midi keyboards - they both do this. The only workaround I've found is to start the count-in a bar early and play a note with each hand to be thrown away.
I'm using the latest version of Logic Pro 9 with an Apogee Duet.
Thanks for any help.This is a Logic issue that needs fixing. The work-around is to record (for example) a bit of MIDI controller data like a mod wheel movement during the count-off period. That will kick start the MIDI instruments without being audible.

RECORDING MULTIPLE AUDIO TRACKS AT ONCE
Hello. Looking for some help. I am using LOGIC PRO and a Presonus Project Studio 8 input AD converter. I have 6 drum mics up and Presonus is recognizing them. I have created 6 audio tracks in Logic and named them appropriately. I go to record them and all I get is the kick drum...no other mics are recording on their own tracks....
Can someone help guide me?Three ways of doing this:
In your mixer slide over the tracks with your mouse - they all turn white/grey - hit record on one of the tracks - all tracks will get armed with the red flashing R button.
or
Hold the shift key and select the tracks in your Arrange - arm one of them - all tracks go into record mode.
or
group the tracks together in a group via the grouping slot above the channel fader, in the group options menue select record enable - arm one of the tracks - all tracks go into record mode. -
Recording two separate inputs at once
I have a USB snowball and a plugged in acoustic guitar (using the line in/out of the macbook). I am able to record the guitar by connecting a wire that has 3.5mm head on both sides in garageband on its own. Same for the USB snowball to record vocals. How can I put the two of them together to record simultaneoously? I have tried the process of aggregate device but only the snowball has inuput.
You may want to post your question in the GarageBand forum - https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/garageband - that's where the GB experts hang out.
Good luck,
Clinton
