Creating new instruments from soundfonts:
Hi all,
I'm still pretty much a newbie with GarageBand and have been working with it recently by using midi files imported into the program and selecting different instruments to get a more pleasing arrangement, with the aim of making my own custom backing tracks. I have followed Hangtime's excellent tutorial and made some custom instruments from Sf2s downloaded from Hammersound and Fox-gieg. Now, the problem I have is this ... some of those custom instruments (annoyingly, the best ones usually) will not play when I reset to the start of the midi track but strangely, if I change to an instrument that will play (such as JamPack instrument) and play a short section and then change back to the custom instrument it will play (that's how I know it's a good sound by the way) ... but when I go back to the start of the track (midi file track, not audio recorded) then the pesky instrument will not play!! If I scroll back to just near the beginning of the track the instrument will play but if I go right back to the beginning of the track ,it won't play. I need the instrument to play right from the start in order for it to play all the way through when I then go to 'Share' and 'Export to Disc' to convert the file to m4a.
Hangtime, if you can throw some light on the problem I would be most grateful mate ... or anyone else on the forum for that matter. I would appreciate the help.
I have resolved a lot of my initial problems like the bass sounds being an octave lower when playing midi files (solution: use the pitch adjust in the edit section) and so on by referring to earlier posts in this excellent forum ... but I haven't come across this.
Best regards ... Rainbow32
Hi SoulRed12,
No worries, I'm glad to get follow up replies to resolve this one and I apologise to yoodler for not getting back but at the time ... I did not fully understand his reply as I did not (at the time) pick up on the reference to Dent du midi which is a freely available program which may be the solution to the problem. If you refer back a few pages to my earlier post re: tonewheel organ sounds not playing you will see this was resolved by using that program ... it was brought to my notice via Gary Sumak's reply and I am so grateful as this little program sorts the problem for those tonewheel organs but should also work with instruments created from soundfonts. It converts the midi track to aif and you then assign the software instrument of your choice from your menu (in this case the instrument you have created from your soundfont) and it should then play through each time correctly. It will only cure those soundfont instruments that are playing 'hit and miss' if you like ... it will not help those soundfont created instruments that yoodler mentions that 'do not take' and which may be caused by using GS files ... I don't know.
I spent a day a while back before posting this thread and downloaded lots of likely soundfonts and converted them ... gave myself repetitive strain injury to my wrist in my enthusiasm and then found that nearly all of those instruments did not actually 'take' or played intermittently and eventually gave up on the whole idea and removed them all. I have found that the Ben Boldt and AMG series of instrument expansion packs and the Jam Packs from Apple pretty much cater to my needs ... but for the odd instrument not available in those collections then it may well be worth downloading several soundfonts of that one instrument and using the Dent du midi program for any of those 'tricksters' that play 'hit and miss'.
Best regards ... Rainbow32:)

Fastest Way To Create Ultrabeat Instrument From Wav Loop?
Hello, can anyone share the fastest way to create and instrument from a WAV file?
I know you can convert a wav to ESX24 instrument but I use Ultrabeat not ESX.
Im finding my self divinding each shot into region and then exporting that to its own file.
Is there a faster/simpler way?
-ThanksYou're right! It does work, however, if you follow these steps:
1. Right-click on wave file in Arrange and choose "Slice at Transient Markers" or use the corresponding key command.
2. Select all the split regions right-click on them and choose: Convert > Convert to new audio file(s)
3. Again, with all the regions selected choose: Convert to new sampler track.
4. Now launch Ultrabeat. Click on the Import button anc choose the .exs file you've just created (will be located in your project folder). Then drag the audio files into UB as desired.
You could skip Part 3 altogether and simply slice at transients, convert to new audio file(s) and then in a new kit of UB drag them into the sample window of OSC for each part... -
Bug: Create New Document From Current State (Win 7 HomePremium SP1)
1. Open a new document, any size you want, any bit mode you want
2. Click on the Text tool and write something
3. Add a new layer mask do the text layer and fill it black or something else. Just something you can visualize if you'd took it off.
4. Unblock the layer mask from the layer so you can move tha layer mask separate from the text
5. Go to your history pannel and click "Create new document from current state"
Result: You'll notice that the layer mask is gone from your text, even though it had something in it.
This only seems to happen with text layers
Expected Result: Everything should stay exactly the same, as it's a duplicate from the current state.

How to create new solution from Existing solution in integration services on TFS project?
Hi,
I am working on SSIS Project and it is created in VS 2008 .I opened the solution in VS 2010 and it is upgraded and unfortynately i don't have the back up to re open it in VS 2008.I am thinking of creating new solution from the existing one and open the new
solution in VS 2008.I was struck how can we copy existing solution to new solution on TFS.
Please let me know will this process work? and also how can we create a new solution without losing any files.
Any help is appreciated.Hi moh1kumr,
As Joost said, you can try to revert the changes back for the checked in files in TFS. For more information, please see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee371161(v=expression.40).aspx
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2694644/how-to-revert-roll-back-a-checkin-in-tfs-2010
If it doesn’t work, I am afraid you have to design the package in VS 2008 from scratch.
Regards,
Mike Yin

Create new document from current state not working
Hey, everyone. I'm using Photoshop CS6 (ccloud) on Windows 7 and I just noticed something weird. Often when I'm working on an image that I want to duplicate, I'll click on the create new document from current state icon at the bottom of the history panel and a new image identical to it will open up as expected.
Lately, though, every once in a while, when I click it, I'll get a new image that's not identical. It'll be a few states behind and I don't know why. It's never happened before and I'm not doing anything differently when it happens. I recently ran the CS6 update via ccloud, but I can't recall now if this started happening right before that or exclusively afterward.
In case my issue's not clear, let's say I create a blank image, add a background color, add a layer of text, add a drop shadow to the text, then mask it. When I click the create new document from current state icon, instead of creating a new image that's a duplicate of that one, it will create new one where all that's there is the background color and text and all the other steps of adding a drop shadow and mask aren't there as if I hadn't done it yet.
I make sure that I'm not clicking anywhere else in the history panel and like I said, this just happens at what seems like random times with random images. I've even tried saving an image, closing it, opening it again and immediately clicking that icon and it'll still create a new document that has missing states.
Any idea what's going on?Yep, that existed in CS5 as well.
We'll log a bug on it. -
Am I crazy? Creating new album from slideshow
It seems a bit strange, but i cannot figure out how to take an existing slideshow and create a new album from it. One of the more powerful features of the newer iPhoto is to take an existing album and quickly view full screen slideshow (including image file names), and to remove images from this mode.
I can't fathom then not being able to create a new album from that newly created slideshow. I must be wrong about this. Please, tell me that I'm wrong and that there's a simple way to do it...Hi chris, there is no "create new album from selection" when you have a permanent slideshow. Others have asked and it might be a good feedback for iPhoto.
As a workaround you can select all and go to Photos/My rating and give them 1 star, or two or whatever. Then make a smart album whose "rating" is "whatever star/stars you chose. Now you can select all in the smart album and create an album from that selection.
In the future, start off with "on the fly" slideshows. Add and/or subtract the images to make it just right. When you are happy with the slideshow, then make it into a permanent slideshow. Now you will have the album and the permanent slideshow from that album. -
How to create new database from backup.
Hi !
i have backup of a database, i do not want to restore, i want to create new database from the backup.
i am using oracle 11g xe.
yours sincerelyIf the Location of the datafiles is similar to that of source database then you can consider below steps
Create Oracle Service using oradim
set ORACLE_SID=NEWDB
oradim -new -sid NEWDB -intpwd passwordofthesys -startmode M
Connect to the RMAN
rman>rman target /
restore spfile/pfile and control file from backup
rman>restore spfile to pfile '_localtion of the initNEWDB.ora_' from '_location of the SPFILE Backuppiece_';
rman>startup nomount pfile='localtion of the initNEWDB.ora';
rman>restore controlfile from 'file location of the controlfile Backuppiece';
rman>alter database mount;
Catalog the RMAN backuppiece of source database
rman>catalog backuppiece '_location of the rman backuppiece of source database_ ';
resotore & recover database
rman>restore database;
rman>recover database;
open the database with reset logs
rman>alter database open resetlogs;
rman>create spfile from pfile;
rman>shutdown immediate;
rman>startup;
==================
If you have access to source database then you can clone using below rman command:
+rman target _<source database>_ auxiliary _<new database>_+
rman>duplication target database to _<your new database name>_;
==========
If the location of the datafiles and logfiles are different from source database then you need to add db_file_name_convert and log_file_name_convert to the pfile before starting the recovery process. -
Create new repository from schema
The option "Create new repository from schema" is not appearing in my MDM console.
How can I add this?
MDM 5.5Hi,
I am on MDM 5.5 SP6 Patch 1 and the option is visble here.
May be on smaller version this option is not there.
well, on right click on your Repository level , Do u get option Export Repository Schema and Import Repository Schema.
if yes, you can achieve the same, firstly create a new repository and then use option Import Repostory schema, you will get the same result as "Create new repository from schema"
Hope it wil Help you,
Rewards if Useful....

Need: CREATE NEW PROJECTS FROM TEMPLATE using Adobe Captivate 8.
Problem: NEW PROJECT (.cptx) duplicates the Advanced Actions originally configured within TEMPLATE FILE (.cpt.).
For example: Template file (.cptl) advanced action "_initializeModule" gets duplicated as "_initializeModule1", "_initializeModule2", "_initializeModule3" within NEW PROJECT. FYI, the original "_initializeModule" advanced action still appears.
MAJOR BUG, what the heck is going on?!?!!! Planning to deploy this template file to use for multiple courses with multiple users, this WILL cause epic confusion across the board.Similar problem, think they are working on it as well: when dragging a shared action from an external library to a slide or object event, and that action is using a parameter that was already created for another shared action, there will be a new parameter created which really screws up the shared action contrary to this problem. Tip: for the moment do not drag shared actions from an external library immediately to an event, but drag them first to the Library: Reuse Shared Actions in other Projects - Captivate 7 vs. 8 - Captivate blog

Problem with "Create New Extrusion from Selected Layer" CC 2014
Hello, I'm experienced with Photoshop but am new to 3D text in Photoshop. I type in some text and convert to a shape. When I choose Create New Extrusion from Selected Layer I get dialog box I don't see in any tutorials. It says "You are about to create a 3D layer. Would you like to switch to the 3D workspace? Yes/No, Don't show again." Which should I use for 3D text?
If I choose Yes, all the panels go away and the content in the tool options bar (ribbon?) just under the menu bar go away. I have to restart Photoshop to get the tool options back. What could I be doing wrong?
Thanks - DaveI just chose "No" and didn't look back. I like my workspace just as it is, and don't prefer Photoshop to change it for me under this particular case.
You can make the 3D panel visible yourself via Window - 3D. I find it's a good alternate for the Actions panel, as I don't have any actions at the moment that work in the 3D world.
The panels you'll want to see easily if you work on 3D are the 3D panel and the Properties panel, among a few others.
Regarding getting your workspace back the way you like it... Note the little selector near the upper-right corner of the Photoshop main window. That can be used to select a workspace. I suggest you experiment and get familiar with the concept of workspaces. You can define your own and save it with a name, and that truly can be helpful.

Can not create new page from template
I have been working on a new site for the last couple of
weeks and have created several pages using a basic template.
All of the child pages of this template still update when
changes are made to it, however I can no long create new children
from this template.
Any ideas as to what the problem might be.
THanks
Clint> It is basically just creating a copy of my template, and
not linking to it in
> any way.
> This allows me to change any section of the html.
my guess is that you are opening the .dwt template file and
doing a "Save
As". That page is not a "child" page of the template.
>
> I want to be able to create new pages off this template
and have it work like
> all of the first pages I created.
dw menu-->File-->New
in the new files dialog box, click the Templates tab
from list in left, click This Site Name
from list in right, pick This Template
make sure x is in box to Update if template changes
click okay
save file with filename you want to within this local site
folder.
add content to within the editable areas

Can't create new pdfs from powerpoint; either form within Adobe or within powerpoint. I could do this yesterday and today it won't work for some reason. The error says "an unexpected error occurred. PDFMaker was unable to produce the Adobe PDF. How do I fix this?
Is there a log file in the document folder indicating what the problem was. There are a number of reasons that PDF creation may fail. You can try to print to the Adobe PDF printer to see if there is any indication in that process. The processing is different, but the same problems may show up with both processes.

I am a rookie. This worked on previous pics but I apparently have clicked something I shouldn't have. Thanks for any help.
The problem with Actions is that as a new user, you are not going to know what steps are happening when the Action runs. The action could be deleting the background layer, for instance. Is the action one that came with Photoshop? If you sourced it from somewhere else, can you give us a link?
There is also some ambiguity in the language you use. Not your fault. But when you say 'create new layer from background' to me that probably means you are copying the background layer. If that is not the case, could you give a more detailed description of the steps you are taking?
Do you know how to upload a screen shot? If you are using Windows 7 or 8, you can use the Snipping tool to drag across your image and layer panel. Save the image, and upload to this thread using the little camera icon. -
New Virtual hard disk wizard hangs after creating new vhd from huper-v manager on windows 7
New Virtual hard disk wizard hangs after creating new vhd from huper-v manager on windows 7 workstation.
Windows 2008r2 hosts the hyper-v server. I can create VMs and VHD's when connecting to the server locally with the hyper-v manager.
The issue arises when I try to connect to the hyper-v server from my workstation which runs windows 7.
I have installed The Windows6.1-KB958830-x64-RefreshPkg.msu that was suggested for windows 7 sp1.
I can connect to the hyper-v server, create vm's but I cannot create vhd's the gui just hangs with no errors in event log or on screen.
The files are there on the hyper-v hard drive but i suspect they are just created by windows as they are written and are not valid.I've had just the same solution. Both did Hang Fixed size and flexible.
Two parts were taken:
1 - KB939820 for Windows 2003 server based domain controllers
2 - disable using IPv6 on your NIC
Result - both types of VHD's are created normaly.
-----Infrastructure----
Windows 2003 Domain upgtraded to 2008R2
Windows Server 2008R2 Hyper-V - virtualisation clustered
Windows 7 Pro - Hyper-V management

How To Add Additional Fields When Creating New Contact From w/in Mac Mail?
Hi there. When in Mac Mail and clicking on contact information provided within an email, we are able to either (1) CREATE NEW CONTACT or (2) ADD TO EXISTING CONTACT (by clicking on the arrow next to a phone number, address, etc.). If I choose "Create New Contact," how can I add additional fields BEFORE clicking on "Add to Address Book" button in lower right corner? Let's say, for example, I know this new contacts URL or company. (Currently, I am creating the new contact from within Mac Mail and then going to Address Book and finding the contact, then editing, the adding the additional fields, then saving, and then going back to Mac Mail. This all takes time.)
Note: When creating a new iCal event from within Mac Mail, we can click on Option/Alt key when selecting drop-down arrow...and this will allow us to add additional information. The same feature isn't available for address book???I have the exact same question and problem. If there was a way to automatically open the AB entry after "creating new contact" this would solve it.
Thanks for any suggestion
