Capture Audio with Ctl-*?

Sometimes, in play mode I have been playing along on the keyboard, conclude and then realize that I did was not in record mode.
A find that if I stop, issue the Ctl-* (numpad) that it will capture what is in the play buffer and slap it in to the sequence at hand.  Saved!
Is there anything like this when I am playing the guitar or singing through a mic and want to capture audio?

Yes...
Well, almost
If you keep "Punch On The Fly" enabled, Logic is actually ALWAYS recording, although once you hit stop, that buffer is cleared.
So the trick to this is, if you are playing along (guitar or voice), and you realize you should have recorded that take, simply hit RECORD, BEFORE you stop. You can then "peel back" the audio region (drag the left side of that short region you'll have when stopping what you were playing to hit the record button), and drag it to the LEFT. You'll see all the audio you were playing there.

  • Final Cut Express won't capture audio with the video anymore, why?

    I have used Final Cut Express 4 for over a year now with no problems, but recently I am unable to capture any audio with the video from my camera. I can do it through iMovie no problem. I can't figure out if I changed a setting by accident because everything looks normal to me. Could another program be interfering with this? Quicktime Pro? I have no idea how to fix this.

    First of all, we need a bunch of information in order to help. Please provide the specs of the footage and the sequence you are using. Also, are you using DV, HDV, or AVCHD? Do you hear audio when the clip is played in the viewer, or is there no audio at all once the clip is captured/ingested?

  • Getting echo when capturing audio with JMF

    Hello.
    I have just downloaded JMF 2.1.1 and have cribbed one of the examples to produce an application that will capture audio input, process it and pass it straight to the speakers. However, I am getting echo, i.e. the input signal appears twice at the speakers, shifted by about half a second.
    Now, before you tell me that it is due to feedback from the speakers to the microphone, I must tell you that my audio signal is from a radio plugged into the mike socket of my PC, so there is no chance of any external feedback.
    Below is the code:
    import javax.media.*;
    import javax.media.protocol.*;
    import javax.media.control.*;
    import javax.media.format.*;
    public class ExampleClass2 implements ControllerListener {
         private Object waitSync = new Object();
    private boolean stateTransitionOK = true;
         private Processor proc;
         public ExampleClass2 () {
              MediaLocator locator = getLocatorByName ("JavaSound audio capture");
              try {
                   proc = Manager.createProcessor(locator);
                   proc.addControllerListener(this);
                   proc.configure();
                   waitForState (Processor.Configured);
                   proc.setContentDescriptor(null);
                   proc.start();
    //               waitForState(Processor.Started);
    //          proc.getGainControl().setMute(true);
              } catch (Exception ex) {
                   ex.printStackTrace();
                   System.exit(1);
    * Block until the processor has transitioned to the given state.

         try {
              while (proc.getState() != state && stateTransitionOK)
              waitSync.wait();
         } catch (Exception e) {}
         return stateTransitionOK;
    * Controller Listener.
    public void controllerUpdate(ControllerEvent evt) {

         evt instanceof PrefetchCompleteEvent) {

         } else if (evt instanceof ResourceUnavailableEvent) {

              stateTransitionOK = false;
              waitSync.notifyAll();
         } else if (evt instanceof EndOfMediaEvent) {
         proc.close();
         System.exit(0);
         public static void main (String [] args) {
              ExampleClass2 two = new ExampleClass2();
    Now, the really interesting thing is that if I uncomment the lines that mute the processor, I get only a single signal out of the speakers. It appears as if there is some connection between the mike input and speaker output.
    Just to make sure, I tried this with JMStudio and got the same result. When I captured input, I got two signals output until I pressed the mute button, when I got one signal.
    I also get the same problem if I use a Player, rather than a Processor.
    I am running on Win95, JDK1.3.
    Any thoughts?

  • Capture audio with PDAs

    Hi,
    I'm developing an application for PDAs and Smartphones in which I have to integrate a voice recorder, so I'm working with MMAPI 1.1 . With the emulator the application works but on the HP iPAQ 5450 I get the error message "unsupported protocol" when I try to create the Player with "capture://audio" as parameter. I'm using the J9 virtual machine from IBM, and I have installed all the correct updates which refers to MMAPI.
    By reading on this forums I've known about applications like this on Nokia 60's series device.
    Is there anyone who has developed applications like this for other devices (especially PDAs)?
    On which device it works ?
    Thanks.

  • Capturing Audio with JMF

    Howdy, folks.
    Relative JMF newbie, here. I'm trying to write an app to capture audio from my sound card. Got the basics done, now I want to add some fancy stuff. Specifically, I'd like to show a display of the waveform.
    Now, when I create a datasink, I need to provide the processor (where the data comes from) and the medialocator (where the data goes to). The only way I know to build a medialocator is to give it a URL or a string for a file name. Is it possible to put the actual byte data directly into a buffered reader or something so I can translate it into a graphic waveform or do I have to write it to disk, and then read it back?
    Thanks for any help,
    Russ

    did you find any solution??
    please let me know thanks.

  • How can capture audio with labview

        I desired to make a audio equalizer vi using lab view. Audio will be taken from microphone. How can I capture sound from microphone with labview?

    See the example "Sound Card AutoPower Spectrum" This allows you to sample from an input device through your sound card, and take a spectrum.  you should be able to bin the spectrum by frequency bands, and show the histogram of frequencies.  You probably can even selectively resample and scale the frequencies, mix the signal and output the new sounds but I hav not tried this (I am not an audiophile so this is beyond my scope of expertise)  Good luck  ,

  • Capture audio with microphone and save to disk

    Hello,
    I would like to know if there is any way to record audio from
    user's output? Let's say I capture it using its microphone, and I
    want to create an audio file with it, or a swf file or whatever
    file it is. I need to save that audio for further playback. Can
    someone point me in any direction!? I have been surfing on this
    topic but I didn't find anything, apparently it can't be done, but
    I would love otherwise.
    Thank you,
    JCA

    Yes that's the way it could work. FMS is designed for
    streaming audio, video and data around keeping things synchronised
    in real time, but it can save the streams to be played back later
    as well.
    It would be an expensive solution if that's all you want to
    do.... there is an open source 'version' in development... called
    red5, but I think you need to know how to program in java, although
    I'm not sure.
    Or you could look at adobe connect/formerly macromedia breeze
    - It prebuilt and is a pay for use service, but does much more than
    what you're looking for. I'm pretty sure you can custom logo it
    etc. You might want to try the free trial account and check it
    out.

  • Captivate capture audio with screen?

    I intendo to create a presentation about Adobe Audition and I

    Thanks

    Renato

    Hi Renato
    If you are asking if Captivate can record system sounds, the
    answer is that it cannot. At least, not without a workaround.
    Captivate can record voice narration at the time of
    recording. One way to capture system audio during the recording
    process is to insert a small patch cable that runs between the
    Speaker out jack and the Microphone in (or Line In) jack and record
    away. Or you could also acquire and attach a mixing device to
    accomplish this.

  • Emulator on OSX don't support capturing audio, is this a BUG?? SDK 3.0

    Hello all,
    well i'm trying to capture audio with the emulator on OSX. When i test the System Properties for capturing audio i always get FALSE.
    I tried the same application on Windows XP with the SDK 3.0 and it works, i'm getting True and can capture the audio with my microphone.
    Now i want to know if this is only a Bug and could be fixed or is the support for capturing audio on Mac OSX not implemented yet?

  • How to find out captured audio data is stored completely

    We are using livepkgr to capture audio with AMS Standard. Since server-side scripting is not available with AMS Standard, we are using a PHP script to manipulate captured audio. Everything works well in testing, but we are wondering about the following.
    When we close an audio capture session with:
       nsPublish.attachAudio(null);
       nsPublish.close();
    can we assume that all the audio data has been written to the stream file? What if the server is busy with many simultanenous capture sessions? Is there a way to verify that a steam file is complete, closed, and ready for processing?
    Thank you very much!

    Hi,
    If you are guided to a structure, double click on the data element and go to the structure.
    Check the where-used for this data element. You will get a list of them which will give you an idea of where to find the data and in which transparent table.

  • Satellite P300-19P not able to capture audio using Chicony Cam software

    Hey,
    I recently upgraded to windows 7 from vista and since then i have not been able to capture audio with the camera assistant software.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, repairing the program, changing the audio settings, running in compatibility mode, i have practically exhausted everything i can think of.
    Can anybody help at all?

    Hi
    You mean you are not able to record the audio using the internal microphone.
    Is it right?
    In your case I would recommend checking the audio device settings inside the camsoftware.
    In settings -> audio tab (last tab) you will find the necessary settings.
    The audio device field should contain the microphone (2 Realtek high definition device) and the audio volume option should be set to max (to right).

    hi reggiee,
    hey i really appreaciate the way u r responding man, thanks a lot.
    Using JMF2.1.1 actually am able to capture audio with the file type is .WAV, but now the problem starts .
    1) The capturing procedure works for only 4 seconds and exits(that i guess can b set by changing the time period, am i correct).
    2) The captured audio when i open it plays so fastly as if its been forwarded that u cant understand wht exactly is captured.
    3) Another problem is the captured file is to heavy, for a around 28 sec capture it comes around 1.2Mb(file size).That i guess is too much.Do tell me some remedy for this .
    The code is in Exxample5_5.java file.
    Now wht am looking for is ,
    1) How can i able to start and stop the audio capturing in the run time.
    2) At present it is capturing as .WAV type, can i capture by some other type say ".mid", ".au" ,".rmf" ? If so plz let me know.
    Please do send me the change code also.If u have any.
    Please do suggest me some remedy forthe said problems.
    Am looking for replies of all u guys.Its been very urgent.
    thanks in advance
