Drum Loops Missing But Plays Fine? EXS24 Instrument "2-step remix.exs"

Half of my drum loops play just great in the loop browser but when I drag them to the playhead I get the error message "EXS24 Instrument "2-step remix.exs" not found." and the same loop that just sounded great in the loop browser instantly morphs into some nasty series of sine wave beeps and clicks. What could possibly cause this?
Much thanks for any ideas.

That does make a lot of sense, I'll check the computers tomorrow when I get back to the studio and see. I usually sling the control over to "never" for putting the computer to sleep but I don't remember doing anything to the HD sleep.
Many thanks for that suggestion, fingers crossed.

Mac Pro Dual Quad Core won't boot OS/X, but plays fine with Linux/Windows

I've got a Mac Pro Dual Quad Core won't boot OS/X, but plays fine with Linux/Windows. I've tried all of the following initial tests as suggested on forums:
-Ram swaps
-Alternating video card in PCIe slots
-Trying alternate video card
-resetting pram and smc
-Multiple tests with memtest86+ over 26hrs and no failed ram
-Multiple tests (8-12 cycles) with apple HW diagnostics and no problems
-Firmware is approved firmware for early 2008 model...no new updates.
Gentoo livecd works fine and I even installed to hard drive and it boots fine with it. In addition to above tests I also ran a linux stress test putting all 8 cores at a load of 22 for 2.5hrs with no problems.
Memtest86+ for 24hrs+ yields no problems.
Where problems occur:
Booting off hard drive, DVD or firewire yields an immediate curtain of death and booting off a new snow leopard DVD dies about 25% into the install.
Looking at error log and a quick dmesg shows "Package 0 didn't get an HPET" and complains about AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext. Google turns up illegal uses of this, so doesn't apply to my use case.
I'm a bit stumped since all was working well until one day it was non-stop curtains of death and can't get them to go away.
A logic board replacement at $1100 is not a feasible option for something that works on linux and windows, but not OS/X, is a bit disappointing and somewhat surprising.
Thanks for your help and advice.
Regards,
Marcos

Someone here once thought they knew EFI and Open Firmware a little, and used some commands from OF library that an Intel EFI Apple system didn't like. New logicboard.
Of course to run or boot OS X and see video you need EFI based card. The presence of some PC cards can block OS X from booting.
The fact you get part way through SL DVD, pull all the drives, put in a new drive and format it from SL DVD.
Most of the things you tried are what are more common with PC hardware. Including where people have tried and failed to install OS X on unsupported hardware.
I suppose it is possible something tried and failed to modify the Mac's firmware.
If you have Windows running, and you have WD drives, WD just posted new Lifeguard utility which is what I use to do a good job of stripping a drive down and recertify it for reuse, works wonders. Maybe same for other makes with vendor utility.

Videos I burnt to disc on my pc won't play on my macbook, when I insert the disc into the macbook it says it's blank but plays fine on the pc

Videos I burnt to disc on my pc won't play on my macbook, when I insert the disc into the macbook it says it's blank but plays fine on the pc, does anyone know how to fix this? The photo's I burnt on the exact same type of disc work fine in both pc and macbook but the videos will only play on the pc.

If you are trying to play these on quicktime then what video format are those videos?
Wmp's? You need to install Flip4Mac.
Most other formats? Install Perian.
Or just use vlc instead. It's a much better, more powerful, and more general video player.

Loops "missing" but still in library

Upon update, many loops went 'Missing" although they are in the loop library still.
Have tried several attempts to re-index loops to no avail.
For instance, "Live Edgy Drums 07" remains, but "Live Edgy Drums 29.2" does not and has no sound.
in sound effects, "Airplane Takeoff" is in the loop library and is functioning, but "is not found" in my composition.

how do i get them back into my playlist?
On the left side ofTunes, drag from Library -> Music to the playlist you want it in.
why does it keep doing this?
Are you deleting the playlists the song(s) are in?

Bit Rate Viewer bad, but plays fine?

Hi there,
For people who have helped me in the past with this problem, i thank you.
I finaly got it to play fine on a DVD player in which i could not get it to work on before.
However when i look at it in Bit Rate viewer program, the needles drop like crazy but it plays fine should i be worried?

Corrupt wav files in Adobe but play fine in other apps

I have some old projects that have been backed up several times. The problem is some of the sound files appear corrupt when I load them into Adobe Audition. The sound plays all distorted with VERY LOUD clicks/pops in it. However, I can play the same files just fine in any standard media player (Winamp, WMP, VLC player)
I tried opening the project in the new Audition but same thing happens. I've also tried the "Open As" option and specifying what windows reports as it's sample rate etc but it comes out the same. Most of the other wav files in the projects work just fine, but one here and there is like this and is preventing me from remixing anything. Worst case scenario I suppose I could play the file in winamp and record it but then I'd have to match the timing up and everything and I just don't have the motivation to do that on all these projects.
http://home.comcast.net/~chicken3/Track17.zip
This is one of the files if somebody wants to take a moment and look at it. I just don't understand why winamp and all of them can play it fine if it was corrupt in any way, other than VLC which I know doesn't need file headers to play properly most of the time.
Below is a pic of what the wave looks like in Audition. Oh, and Reaper reads the files just fine as well, if I hadn't trimmed all my wav files down i'd just paste the whole project into Reaper and remix but unfortunately I trimmed all the files already.

Well as I said it plays in standard media players such as Winamp (which generally will not play a file with a corrupt header or any sort of problem like that) However I checked it out in that app you mentioned and the results seem normal to me. I've tried Open As in Audition and I can choose the 44.1KHz and 32 bits but it opens the same as it did before. So far I've only noticed 32 bit files with this problem but it's possible it has nothing to do with that. Again, the file plays fine in all standard players, and Reaper and other audio apps open it just fine. Audition will not.

Playback on export is too low but plays fine in the sequence

My audio is at the perfect level in the sequence, but when I export the audio level comes out way to low. What setting am I missing?

Have you updated your iPod and iTunes sofware?
most cases, iTunes can play these high quality songs, which is meant for newer mobile devices like iPhones, iPod Touch, nano and iPad, which the older iPod cant play, but only playable with iPod classic sofware version 2.0.4
most likely it is an incompatible song format, read this Apple support article.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1334?viewlocale=en_USet
If your iPod software is version 1.1.2, then you have to use lower quality format.

Video won't show on iTunes (only audio) but plays fine on my iPhone?

Hi,
I downloaded a TV show on my iPhone and the next time I synced my iPhone to my iTunes it was put in my iTunes library but when I try and watch it on my computer only the audio plays and it's just a black screen (see photo)... as it says in the title both video and audio playback fine on my iPhone.
Does anyone know what the problem is and how I can fixit? Thanks!

Video wont load in ipad 4th gen but plays fine in itunes during home sharing

iPad version : 6.1.2
iTunes version : 11.0.4.4
I configured the home sharing as taught in the guideline, everything works fine except the video wont load in my ipad. When i click play (via ipad) on the video that is shared from my library(comp), the video only plays in my computer's itunes but not ipad. It shows the movie is playing on my ipad (running time of movie), but the frame of the video is stuck at first second of the video.
Anyone with the similar experience out there?? Hope to get some help over here.
Thanks

You are correct. I should have clarified that. They are not under Movies or under Home Videos. I synced two home videos (AAC, H.264) as a test, together and one at a time. Both of them appear and disappear as appropriate.
The mp4's remain stubbornly invisible/absent.

Why are my steppers misbehaving in closed loop mode, but work fine in open loop

I have a 7344 controlling a 4 axis prototype machine, which is configured with 50,000 steps/rev and linear encoders providing 50800 counts per inch. The physical properties of the machine are less than perfect (prototype!), so there is a considerable amount of backlash in the hardware (about 0.008" - 0.010").
The observed behaviour is as follows: when repeatedly blending in the X,Y plane using vector space 1 in closed loop mode, an axis will be driven (uncommanded) to the zero encoder reading (home position) occasionally (about 1 move in 600). I have kept a log of the commanded positions being passed to the controller (via the flex_load_vs_position function) and a move to zero is not being com
manded. The application is single-threaded, so there is no chance of race conditions. The ready state of the board is being confirmed by means of the flex_check_blend_complete function call before any blend is commanded. The programmed relationship between steps and counts/revolution have been independantly confirmed as being correct.
An A-B-A test with the only change being to initialise the X & Y steppers in open loop instead of closed loop then 'works' - although the physical positioning of the hardware is unsatisfactory due to the physical characteristics of the prototype machine already mentioned, hence the necessity to run closed loop.
I am inclined to interpret the evidence as suggesting that the 7344 is causing an 'occasional' uncommanded move to zero as a result of some interaction between pull-in moves and commanded position on a system where there is a considerable degree of 'elasticity' between the commanded position and the achieved position allied to a rapid-fire de
livery of blend moves.
This problem can be replicated under versions 5.0.1 and 5.2 of the FlexMotion software.
I can clearly run without bumping into the problem by running open loop, but unfortunately that is not acceptable in this situation. Any ideas, anyone?

Hi, and thanks for coming back so promptly. I think I need to give you some more information - sorry if it turns into a long post!
The system behaviour when it 'misbehaves' is that it starts the anomolous behaviour well clear of any home or limit switch (>6"). When it 'goes wrong', it then slews one or both axes to the zero position. Having arrived at the zero position, it then carries on with the next blend without killing the motor.
The initialisation functions include a seek to home switch, a search for the nearest index point, and a zeroing of the encoder count at the index pulse: hence the zero point is a little displaced from the home microswitch.
I believe that once the system has 'gone wrong', it is stopping at the zero point *not* the h
ome switch.
I have carried out some further tests that may be of help:
If I place a large (1 sec) inter-blend delay in the calling functions, the anomalous behaviour is not noticed. However, the start/stop nature of each move means that this test is knocking the bejezus out of a rather fragile prototype machine, so I can't do this too often!
The encoder positions are being read back on each move cycle and monitored, and they are not showing any anomolous behaviour, so I don't think they are the culprit. I have placed a 'scope on the quadrature encoder inputs and the edges are good and sharp with no real indications of noise.
I could test with a blend factor other than -1 if you think that might be illuminating?"

My movie keeps flashing on ipad but plays fine on iPhone?

I have a movie that I uploaded to both a collection and a course. When some of my students tried to play the video on their ios device, it flashed constantly. Others found it ok. On my new ipad, I have the same flashing problem with a green screen flashing intermittantly with the video. On my iphone is has no problem. I deleted the video from the course materials and am just using the itunes link but I still have the problem. I have no problems playing it through itunes on my computer.... any thoughts?

Why are some of my purchased songs cutting off when I play them on my iPod but play fine on iTunes on my laptop?

Here's a question that's been bugging me for years, and I'm trying - again - to find an answer. I have a couple dozen songs purchased off the iTunes Store that are clipped then I play the on my iPod (4th or 5th generation; sorry that I can't remember). They cut off in exactly the same places. Re-syncing never helps. The songs all play just fine on iTunes on my laptop.
What's going on? How do I fix it? Thanks in advance!

Try deleting them from the iPod and redownloading them directly to the iPod
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Next:
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Loop plays in the loop browser but not on the track

Hi,
I've been having this problem for a while and reinstalling the whole program doesn't help either.
I am running Logic Pro 8.02 and when I click on the loop such as "RnB beat 01" in the loop browser, it plays fine but when I drag it into the track I get a message saying "EXS24 instrument “Pop Kit.exs”: Audio file “TTHI11X04.aif” not found!".
Does anyone know what's going on here?
Why would a file be missing if it can play it in the browser???
This happens with several other loops also.
Some AIF files and some Caf files.
Thanks so much!
Message was edited by: Jisung Choi

This is because it is a green loop, which when dragged to a Software Instrument track, will load an EXS instrument. To play it as audio, drag it to an Audio track.
To rectify the missing sample from the EXS kit, reindex Spotlight for the disk the sample is supposed to be on (probably your startup disk.
To reindex a disk:
Open Apple menu > System Preferences > Spotlight
Click Privacy tab
Drag disk to list. Wait 4 seconds. Now hit the -(minus) button to remove the disk from the privacy list. Reindexing will start within about 20-30 seconds, and will take 10-30 minutes, depending on what's on the disk.
After that, the sample will probably load. If not, reinstall "core" Logic.
