Can't Bounce Tracks to Audio

Hello,
When I'm working with 10 or more Instrument Tracks with MIDI data on them I need to bounce them to audio in order to keep working on my song.
I go to File >> Export >> All Tracks as Audio Files...
and then Logic bounces each track individually and puts them in my audio window.
The problem is, however, that the new audio regions created from the tracks with MIDI data ALWAYS omit the first 0.3 seconds of the region.
Can anybody help me?
I'm ready to go out and buy Pro Tools.
Thank you,

Hi.
Let me take a wild guess, and ask you if your song starts at beat 1 bar 1 (11_11)
It does, does in not?
Move ALL your song down by one or two bars...and tehn you won't get that annoying 0.3s missing audio.
ByTheWay, MIDI in proTools does the same thing.And Nuendo, and Opcode Studio, etc...
I have not ever started a song in ANY DAW on bar 1 beat 1, for that very reason. If you have some pre-roll, you KNOW it will go ok from the start.The reason for this silence is because the DAW needs to fill it's audio buffer FIRST, and snce you do not give it pre-roll to do this, it eats the first 0.3 secs of the song.
Strangely enough, some CD players do the same. Especially the ones that have that "anti-skip" buffer.
Cheers

When i try to upload a .mts file from my Sony camera to Premiere Pro CC it refuses to play the audio! Ofcourse i could convert every single clip but it takes tons of time. How can i make Pr play audio track properly?

Does it not play at all or cannot you get the audio in the timeline?
Did you copy the entire card to the hdd and then imported the file via the Media Browser?
Did you source patch the audio tracks?

Can't add a new audio track without any settings

Can anyone tell me were faced with the same problem. Doing audio post production in Logic Pro X, the latest version, the project is big, At some stage the work I was faced with the fact that you can't add a new audio track without any settings, no matter what inserts I track with duplicate settings of one of the tracks and it begins to sound with this track. I don't add a new audio track with duplicate settings. I add a new one, and I still opens the track with some sort of settings. What is it? This is a glitch or I'm somewhere that we have not considered? Duplicates the configuration of one of the tracks collected in group 1, which I did for editing convenience. Duplicates and also automation and if the new track am I doing something then this machine is transferred to the existing track from this group.

Everything works in full 'Logic Pro X' mode. It's just a glitch in my project. The problem while you decide this: I insert a new track and it reset and set the output.

Why can't I enable an audio track for recording? (It won't let me)

I want to record VO but PP won't let me...
On Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite in System Preferences:
• Sound Input is set to C-Media USB Headphone Set (an Alesis usb mic...works fine for VO in Final Cut Pro 7)
• Output is set to Headphone port
In Premiere Pro CC Audio Hardware Preferences:
• ASIO Hardware is set to "System Default Input/Output"
• I have also tried "C-Media USB Headphone Set but this, too, doesn't work
• With "System Default I/O" selected, Output Mapping is set to "Adobe Desktop Audio" (only choice), and shows:
     • "Built-in Output: Headphones 1
     • "Built-in Output: Headphones 2
     • "C-Media USB Headphone Set: Front Left
     • "C-Media USB Headphone Set: Front Right
all four of these have a couple of square icons to the right.
In order to record VO, I first need to "enable track for recording" in the Audio Track Mixer. There are no in or out points set in my timeline and the tracks are not locked or solo'd or anything. So why can't I select the audio track I want to use to record VO? I click it but there is no response. I just want to know why this software is not doing what it's designed to do.

is I learn still around -? That was VERY HANDY!

i recently got new mac air and transferred my old version garageband projects now when I open them in 10.0.2 I can add new tracks but then nothing can record, shows its receiving sound from software inst. but no sound. I checked audio preferences and they are set as they should be. I tried it in all the other older projects and same issue anyone have any experience like this very frustrating. Can one download old version still ? or can you run both versions on OS10.9.5 ?

Ok, either my question was too long or nobody seems to have an answer. Sad, either way
Here's something I found out in the meantime, maybe this is interesting for somebody or maybe - problem's not totally solved - enough info for any of you to give me further advice.
When I start Logic Core Audio driver de-activated, I can open old songs. Then I save them in a new folder with all audio files and a new name. And I remove all EXS24 instruments as well as the Space Designer. I quit Logic, re-open with Core Audio activated and I can open the song.
Problem no.1: EXS24 instruments don't find the appropriate samples, but EXSMananger Pro did help me with this. Same problem with Space Designer, which doesn't find the impulse responses, connected to a certain preset.
Two questions, every idea would be great!
- Is there any way to teach Space Designer Presets where to look for impulse respones. I can load IR samples directly and create a new preset, but I can't use my old ones.
- Is it possible to install Logic from scratch over an existing version? Or how should I de-install everything connected with Logic and then install a fresh version from CD?
Thank you again,

With Adobe Premier Elements 13 can I add my own audio tracks by pulling music from my files and by using my UBS microphone?

With Adobe Premier Elements 13 can I add my own audio tracks by pulling music from my files and by using my USB microphone?

larryh
Please remind us on what computer operating system your Premiere Elements 13 is running
Using your own music.....
Yes, with important but.....
Details
If your music is from iTunes, more than likely you will get some sort of error message from the program when you try to import the iTunes music into Premiere Elements (most versions including 13). In that case, please convert the iTunes music to the wav version in iTunes using the following iTunes instructions.
iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format - Apple Support
If you are getting program error message using Premiere Elements 13 Add Media/Files and Folder with other than iTunes music, please give the source and properties of that music.
Using USB Microphone....Not recommended by Adobe....See Adobe ReMe
Details
As for Premiere Elements narration clips using the its Narration Tool
1. Adobe documentation indicates the USB microphone do not work in Premiere Elements and suggest the use of microphones that connect to the computer via computer jack.
But, there are some scattered cases where the user has found a USB microphone that has worked for him or her.
2. Be sure to check Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO settings to assure that Input and Output are enabled.
3. There have been reports (Premiere Elements several versions) where addition of narration using the Narration Tool results in loss of pre-existing
sound on numbered audio track clips and soundtrack.
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE12: Audio Losses After Narration Addition
4. In my particular Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 64 bit, I have found that I need to set the Mic Sensitivity all the way to the left to avoid
serious audio distortion.
I have tried to give you an overview to avoid surprises if you have not used the features that you pointed to in your thread question. Please let me know if you need further information.
Thank you.

Bouncing All Tracks As Audio Files

When I do this, is it writing the sends(not inserts) also is it writing the output, forexample if i compress all drums by sending their outputs to a specific bus

Which of these are you doing?
1. Track : Bounce-Replace all tracks
2. File : Export : All tracks as audio files

Using Pro Logic X to record. I have several tracks and I'm trying to record an audio track. I have the mic connect to Avalon 737 then into apollo interface. When I record all track are being recorded into that track. I can't just get the audio to record.

Thanks for responding. Everything seems to work right except for the when I plug into the 737. Ok let me see if I can be more clear. I had this set up done with two representatives of Neumann, and DBox. Here it is I hope this helps. 32 Channel snake (24 Inputs 8 outputs) Channels 1-8 from snake to my Octopre for Drums. From Octropre output quarter inch lines into the Apollo 2, quarter inch input. This is so that the Apollo 2 is taking the drum tracks. Snake Channel 9-12 into Apollo 1 channels 1-4 xlr. Snake Channel 13-16 into Apollo 2 Channels 1-4 xlr. Snake Channel 17 into the 737, output of 737 into Channel 5 of the Apollo 1 quarter inch.
Ok The Dbox. Sum output L&R into channel input 7&8 of Apollo 1. Apollo 1 output channels 1-8 into summing input channel 1-8 of Dbox. Apollo 1 main L&R going to main analog input L&R of Dbox. Spid out to DAW input of Dbox. I have both ADAT of both Apollos connected by optical wire. Also have port 2 of Apollo 1 into port 1 of Apollo 2 connected by Firewire. Let me know. Hope I got it right. Thanks for responding.

ARRGH! Can't Get Bounce Tracks in Place to Work....Advice Needed!

OK, I have Stylus RMX instantiated as a multi-output instance. I have 3 patches loaded, each assigned to a different RMX output, and have added (using the plus sign) additional AUX tracks in the mixer. So I have 3 stereo Auxes basically with sounds coming from Stylus. The 1-2 Outs of RMX are not being used.
When I highlight the RMX track in the Arrange, and just to make sure I also highlight all the other regions on the additional AUX tracks, I choose BOUNCE TRACK IN PLACE. I also choose "Bounce multi outputs to SEPARATE Tracks" option in the dialog.
But all that ends up happening is I get ONE stereo file, of the patch playing on the first two stereo outs. So the other two "Tracks" of patches are not in the bounce, and not on their own separate tracks. It's like this is broken or something.
Anything I'm doing wrong here?
Thanks
Tom

Update:
Further experimentation:
1 Does not work in Kontakt 4
2 Does not work in RMX
3 DOES work in Superior and EZY Drummer.
So it must have something to do with how the plugs are written???
Have reported to Apple...

Anyway to turn all tracks into audio all at once without bouncing

I have old sessions using midi samples from old hard drive. I would like to make all tracks audio before retiring the Hard drive

You could use the Export function "all tracks to Audio data" (to be found at the bottom of Save menue). This will transform your Midi Instruments into Audio (it ignores the Automation though).

Export all tracks as audio files in LPX has suddenly ceased to function correctly

I have been working on a project for the past three months, which requires me to work from home ,then export all my tracks as audio files and take them into another studio. This is because my collaborator's DAW of choice is now Nuendo. So far, this has proved to be a very successful approach to our workflow, until today. As an example , I have a cue with 96 tracks. When I came to use export all tracks as audio files, the usual window came up, defaulting the destination to the bounces folder in the Logic song. However, this time, instead of the expected and correct number of tracks to be saved ( 96 ) , the total was 25 !
I tried this with a few other recent Logic songs and the same thing happened. None of us can figure it out. I had to manually, and individually, bounce each track separately, which was very time-consuming. A clue, though….. I tried exporting the tracks one at a time. So, the first one was, say, piccolo rips. It did that fine . The second track was Alto flute runs, but when I came to export, Logic seemed to think it was still the piccolo rips! This implies that the reason why I'm experiencing reduced export files is because Logic is thinking that many of the tracks are actually duplicates, so it's stopping them from being exported. That's the only explanation I have. However, I don't have the answer to the reason for this. I'm running the latest version of Logic.
Has anyone clue as to why this has suddenly started to happen and how it can be fixed please? I'm thinking I might just trash the Logic app and reinstall.
Many thanks for any help.

First of all you are welcome...
I have to say... I suspect something has changed even if you are not directly aware of it.... between the time it did work and now that it doesn't for you... Be it for example... an update to a plugin you are using.. or even a new/different plugin you are using now that you didn't use before...
I checked with one of my clients a few minutes ago, who does regular, several times a week, large project stem exports to see if he has ever had or heard of such an issue ( in case it one of those odd bugs that only rears its head every now and again..) and the answer was no, not at all...
So all I can recommend is to create some testbed projects.. using different combinations of Plugins, creation of tracks methods.. templates etc.. until you uncover the root cause of the issue... because i suspect it may well be something unique to your system, config or work method that is causing this problem..
You might also want to check with the guys at
http://www.logicprohelp.com/forum/index.php
..and see if David, Jordi, Eric or one of the other regulars there, have ever come across such a problem.. I did a quick cursory search there and found nothing at all but it was a very quick look/see type of search...
Maybe CCT, Pancenter... or Edgar here.. might have an idea or two, too...
Finally, Can you also state your current OS X / Logic version please...
Cheers..

Export All Tracks as Audio Files ? about volume levels.

1. Do you export with each track at the volume level in the mix?
2. Or do you set the CS volume faders at 0.0 to get the maximum signal?
The first option allows me to recreate a mix with the volume levels already set.
But the second option gives me audio files at original record levels so that I can create a different sounding mix, or use audio regions in another project, setting levels as needed.
What's the better approach???

CSeye wrote:
I just started exploring Export Tracks to Audio and had the misconception that whatever fader & pan positions were set in the mixer would be rendered in the export. Good to know that Bounce is the way to go if that's needed.
Just be sure to UN check the 'include volume and pan info' esp if someone else is gonna mix for you
On the other hand for archiving purposes including fx and pan and vol is a failsafe way of doing things
My question is really about two situations: The most important one is archiving/future proofing a project, and the other is how best to share a mix with a collaborator.
Good information.
Best
Just make sure

Glitches, clicks, and pops when exporting all tracks as audio files

It's getting to crunch time, and Logic 9 has been giving me a very hard time. It's now time to export my edited tracks as mono audio files to send to a mixing engineer. I thought mono files would be a button press away. Not so.
*Background on Project*:
– Started in Logic 8, and was continued in Logic 9
– Contains only audio that was recorded using Logic
– Has take folders with Quick Swipe Comps
– Has flexed regions
– Has take folders with flexed regions in them
– Has been manually beat mapped
Steps:
1) Set each fader, on every track, to unity gain and centre panning.
2) File > Export > All Tracks as Audio Files
3) Select AIFF, 24-bit, bypass effect plug-ins, and include volume/pan automation, normalize off.
*Expected Outcome*:
I expect mono/stereo files of all of my unprocessed tracks, bounced in place with fades, flexing, and quick swipe comps applied.
*Actual Outcome*:
I get mono/stereo files with clicks, pops, and scrambled sections scattered throughout the files, within fades, and at quick swipe comping boundaries. Retrying the export may result in clicks, pops, and scrambled sections in different places.
Workaround:
While the glitching in fades and at comp boundaries seems to happen in offline bounces, it rarely happens when playing the song in realtime. Unfortunately, there's no realtime option when you "export all tracks as audio files." *My workaround is to export the tracks one at a time by bouncing the project in realtime with the desired track soloed*.
This is excruciatingly slow. To speed things up, I've taken to soloing six tracks at a time, assigning all of them to the surround output, and panning each track exclusively to a different surround channel. This way, I can do a split file surround bounce and get six mono files, each with the contents of a different track. If your audio interface does not support 6 outputs, then you'll need to download SoundFlower and use their virtual 16 channel output.

In addition to the flex algorithms being disappointingly substandard in overall tc quality, flex tracks glitch constantly--especially if there are tempo changes or crossfades. You may be able to freeze them first and then export. AlternAtively, you could try tmelocking them and then using an alternate tempo map with a single tempo, then switching back after you flex tracks are bounced.

Can't export MIDI as Audio file. Any idea what I should have done?

Hi all,
wonder if anyone can help me out. I'm a "Logic"-newbie.
I recorded 10 "external MIDI" tracks(strings) from my Roland JV 1080 synth module into Logic Pro 9 and now I want to export the MIDI file as Audio but when I go to: File - Export - Track As Audio File, the "Track As Audio File" is gray/ not enabled !! The option-"Export All Tracks As Audio Files " is enabled, but when I try it, it doesn export the MIDI tracks with all the Roland JV 1080 data.It only exports any other recorded "soft instruments"tracks or Audio tracks I've uploaded. Keep in mind, the 10 Midi recorded tracks of strings (JV 1080) are using the same program name/patch, and all 10 tracks are on a single channel. In the Inspector window, it doesn't show the "Bounce" option either. When I started recording the strings from this patch, I used the "new track with duplicate settings"-button,so I could have the same sounding string patch available right away. My Roland JV 1080 synth, is connected to the Midi interface only. Should I also have Audio cables connected from JV 1080's Mix Out to the Audio interface (Apogee-Duet) in order to record directly as Audio?
Thanks for your time guys!

Thank you as well! Since, you have similar equipment like mine- (Apogee/ Emagic), how do you suggest I connect my devices properly. I got an external 12-channel "Mackie"1202-VLZ Mixer, which has my Roland JV 1080 box and my Kurzweil PC2X controller kyes connected to.These two are also, connected MIDI In and Out -to my Emagic Unitor 8 MKII (Audio Interface). I'm a little confused about the connecting of my Apogee Duet, since it has just 2 OUT's- L and R. What's the best rigging here, so I can hear the Audio back from the JV 1080 and the Kurzweil?
( P.S. The Apogee Duet's OUT's (L& R) are plugged into the Mackie'sStereo Aux Returns (L&R). The monitors are connected to the Main Outs.)
I appreciate your suggestions.
