Copying and Converting Automation

If i make some automation up for say volume contol, and then would like to use the same drawing to use on the filter of the same synth, how is it done?
I did a search in the manual but couldnt find anything, but i know it can be done.......
Thanks in advance...

Hi David
you can copy the automation by holding down option and double clicking in the background of the track automation. this selects all automation for that track. then you can use the copy and paste commands (control C and control V) to copy and paste into the other automation spot.
if you only want to copy from a certain point in the song, hold option and click on the first automation node from where you want to copy and it will select it and all after it.
for a detailed look at automation check out Edgar Rothermich’s personal manuals

hope this helps

How do you copy and paste automation?

Is there a way to copy and paste automation in logic instead of redrawing the same automation later in the song I asked the same question a few weeks ago and some one replied to go to automation preferences and change the setting move automation with regions to always or ask I did this but this simply just moves the automation with the region if you drag it from its original place I want to copy and paste the region and the have the automation with it hope someone knows what I'm on about cheers
p.s does any know if there is a key board command to turn the cycle mode on/off I looked in the key command preferences but could not find it

Hold down the option key, then drag the region. This will copy the regions AND the automation (as long as you have automation preferences set to move the automation with the region).
Also, there is a hidden feature in Logic, that used to be called the automation folder. t was accessible via a key command in Logic 6, and then they removed that key command in version 7. Why they hid this is beyond me, as it is a very useful thing.
But if you go to your key commands and assign a key command to "Automation Event List", this will open an Event List window showing you the songs automation. Now with that List Window open, hit Apple/1. This opens a new Arrange page, but you'll notice that this new arrange page is showing you all the songs automation data, represented as regions.
From this page, you can then cut and move your automation just like you do audio and MIDI regions.

Copy And Paste Automation

Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to copy and paste automation (without selecting and alt dragging it)? I am used to using pro tools and very frequently use tab to transient and paste automation at that transient, basically I'm looking for a way to mimic that workflow in logic, I'm able to get the tabbing to work fine but am stuck at the copy/paste automation part.
Thanks a lot in advance for any help,
David

While you have the automation event list open, go up to the windows command, and open a new arrange window.
What will open, is what used to be known as as the automation folder. You'll see all the automation in your song displayed as regions. You can simply cut and option/drag the automation, just like you do with audio and MIDI regions.

Copying and Converting to DNG

Using Lightroom 3 beta 2, when importing raw files to both a primary location and a secondary backup location, using "Copy and Convert to DNG". the files are copied to the primary location as DNG, but NOT to the secondary location where they are copied as NEF (Nikon) files. Shouldn't they be copied as DNG to both locations, or am I missing something?

Bob,
I think the idea behind keeping your files as NEFs is that LR is archiving the original. That wouldn't be the case if it were converted to DNG at that point.

Automation Folder, Automation Event Editor, Automation copy and paste help

Hello. I have been reading the copy and paste automation threads and I still have a few questions. First, thanks to whoever posted the option double-click on track background to select all visible automation for that track. Also, thanks to whoever posted the option click an automation node to select all following visible automation nodes.
Now, how do you select the middle 10 automation nodes in a track with 30 nodes? Many people have stated that the answer is a rubberband selection. This does not work for me. When I click and drag on the track background using the pointer Logic thinks I'm trying to create a new automation node. When I click and drag on the track background using the marquee tool Logic selects the audio and automation data. Then it only pastes the audio only even though I have "move automation with regions" set to ask.
Some people have recommended the automation folder. When I open the Automation Event Editor and click on the tiny rectangle in the upper left corner I just get a short list of the automation data. Is this right? If so, how do I select the data I want and paste it to another track? Because when I select the automation data for a track and copy nothing seems to happen when I paste.
Any automation gurus out there willing to help? Please and thank you in advance.

Hello Pete. Thanks again. It's odd that something so potentially useful is so hard to get to. I guess that is what people are referring to when they say that Logic has a steep learning curve. Is there another way to get to the automation folder? I think that it should have it's own item in the windows menu instead of sharing it with the arrange window and being contextual.
The copy and paste in the automation folder (automation arrange seems more appropriate as I cannot figure where the folder is) does not work as I expected. For instance, when I select volume automation from a track then option drag it to the pan automation of another, it still copies it to the volume automation. I then have to command click volume then switch to pan and select copy and convert, which makes it MIDI, which you say is not recommended. Will you tell me why TBA (and I assume RBA) is preferred over MIDI based automation? What is the difference exactly? Thank you so much for your assistance.

I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, put it into iTunes Library and convert it to an .mp3. How do I get the voice memos from my phone? I can't seem to move them out of the Devices folder, no matter how much I try to copy and paste or drag and drop

I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, turn it into and .mp3, and email it. My iPhone shows up under "Devices" in my iTunes but doesn't allow me to move the voice memo files I see sitting there into my Library no matter how much copying and pasting or dragging and dropping I try to do.
Also, I need to convert the file to an .mp3.
How come no voice memo files show up when I go into my iPhone via My Computer? All it shows are the videos and pictures in the DCIM folder, but not the voice memos. Is there another way to access the voice memos other than through iTunes?

Email it to yourself, then save the file and then see if you can convert it to MP3.

Hi Sara. Tanks for responding. If I cannot figure this out (I was up

Please advise.

Hi helpme59,
It depends upon the restrictions set on the pdf.
If the creator of the pdf has set restrictions against copying then you will not be able to copy the content.
Are you facing the same issue with all the pdf's?
Would it be possible to share the pdf with me.

I use Acrobat to convert firefox pages to pdf and with firefox4 I need to be able to copy and pasted text from the pdf and no longer can.

With the prior version of Firefox I could convert web pages (financial data) to pdf for maintaining historical files. And then with the pdf, I was able to copy and paste the numbers into Excel. With Firefox4, I can convert to pdf with Acrobat but I cannot access the numbers for copying and pasting as text, only as a picture. While I prefer Firefox, I check to see if this problem recently started with the "other" company's web browser and did not have this problem. So, it is not Acrobat.

HI djlarp,
Try triple-clicking in the text that you want to select--it can sometimes be tricky to select text in a converted document. If that doesn't work, it could be that the PDF document was created from a scanned document, and OCR wasn't enabled when you converted the document. (However, OCR is enabled by default when you convert via the ExportPDF website.)
If you're unable to select text by triple-clicking, let us know. I would be happy to take a closer look at your files.
Best,
Sara

How do I make a DVD copy of a file? And does the file have to be converted from mpeg or mp4 or.MOV to a different format before it can be copied and is readable by DVD? Thanks.

Great hearing for you all! I thought I was all alone this past weekend. I did learn a lot this weekend. I really like the InDesign product.(half-the-battle) But to be helped by the prestigious “Sandee Cohen” was an honor indeed.” I ordered the InDesign CC today. Peter, I appreciate all the feedback on Lynda too. They are loaded with lots of good videos. Derek too honed in on one of the most important aspects! Since I have been working with Word for most of the first portion of the book this will be a big help. I looked at the comments big help ! Thanks a ton ALL! Have a wonder day or evening whenever you read this reply.

Why does copy and paste always convert to arial 10 in firefox?

I use a web based email and auto responder system. In the past I have been able to create a document in word and then copy and paste the content into a template. The font and size, style and color would save in the document as they were in word. Now when I do the same thing, they are converted to arial 10 black.
why is that and why does firefox not support other fonts?

You can paste in any track you want, make sure the track is selected first before you paste.
Or Alt drag to any track without selecting the track first or even to a new track.

I built an ad using layers saved it and then converted it to a jpeg. Now when I go into elements 11 to do anything else it will not allow to copy and paste to create a new layer. What am I missing?

You know that you lost the layers when you saved it as a jpeg, right? But you're saying you can't add layers to the jpeg now when it's open in the editor? Go to Image>mode and be sure it's RGB, for starters. Are all the commands in the Layer menu grayed out?

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
