Dv converter and 32 bit audio possible?

In order to use all 4 mics on my canon xl2 video camera, I have to set the audio to 12 bit, 4 channel I am recording live directly to my computer, so I need to use a setting that is non-controllable to the video camera. I believe the only easy-setup setting like this is DV converter, which is does not have the 32 bit sample rate and so does not record two of the mics. So, is there any way to get the 32 bit audio sample rate on the DV converter setting?

I don't think this will matter as FCE only allows the first stereo pair to be captured. The second stereo pair could be dubbed to another camera then captured.
Check your camera manual (fine print), many cameras won't send the second stereo pair out over firewire.
Pretty annoying stuff when you want the lot.

Front and Rear Audio - Possible?

I've been fairly frustrated lately because my computer seems to be behaving randomly.
Since the beginning of the summer I had my computer set up to play audio through both a front panel headphone jack on my case and the rear ports. Now things have somehow magically changed and I can't get audio to come out of the rear ports.
I have my front panel jumpers connected to the JAUDIO2 jumpers (specifically, ground to 2, right signal to 5, and left signal to 9 - the only other connectors I have from the front panel are mic signal and mic ground).
In theory, hooking up the front panel disables the rear audio ports (because 5/6, 9/10 aren't shorted) but in the past I had my rear speakers hooked up to the ports on the back of my computer and my headphones hooked up to the front panel and could use whichever one I wanted. Now I can't get the rear ports to work at all (possibly because I don't have jumpers around to short 5/6 and 9/10 but I was hoping that it wouldn't matter)
Any ideas on how to fix this?

puuj,
My case's front audio is a pass-thru from the back on-board panel, so i don't have a special connector. I believe Matrix and a few others have a connector directly to onboard....
You should leave those jumpers shorted (JA2).

32-bit Audio Unit, its possible ?

Hello,
Is it possible to run the 32-bit Audio Unit?
Or is there a converter to convert 64-bit Audio Unit?
Thank you for your answer

Logic 9 uses an unstable bridge to access 32 Bit plugs when you run it in 64 Bit mode. Logic X is not supporting 32 Bit plugs anymore, the bridge is gone, which is a PITA.
EDIT: But -> Bit

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException with 16 bit audio

Hi, when converting 8 bit audio I have no exceptions, but when converting 16 bit I get an AIOOBE. Here is the code segment that deals with the conversion:
try {
for (int r=0; r < audioShortData.length-1; r++) {
    loByte = audioByteData[r * numChan + 0];
    hiByte = audioByteData[r * numChan + 1];
    //convert bytes to int
    sample = (hiByte << 8) | (loByte & 0x00FF);
    //samples array
    audioShortData[r] = (short)sample;
} catch (Exception ex){ex.printStackTrace();}The exception is pointing to: loByte = audioByteData[r * numChan + 0];
Thanks!

My proposal:
try {
for (int r=0; r < audioShortData.length; r += 2) {
    loByte = audioByteData[r + 0];
    hiByte = audioByteData[r + 1];
    //convert bytes to int
    sample = (hiByte << 8) | (loByte & 0x00FF);
    //samples array
    audioShortData[r/2] = (short)sample;
} catch (Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}Just a quick guess, I'm pretty sure I can't think straight anymore right now.

24-bit audio files converted to 16-bit in Logic Pro 7

Hello,
I'm working on producing my band's demo and this is my first project in Logic Pro 7. The tracks were originally recorded into a Fostex D2424LV hard disc recorder as 24-bit wave files, then imported into Logic. At this point, I've done the editing and effects processing in Logic and exported the tracks as individual wave files, with the intent to put the tracks back on the Fostex and run them through a Yamaha 24-channel analog board for the final mixdown.
Everything has gone smooth until now. When I play the exported tracks back on the Fostex, most of them are peaking on the meters, while the same tracks played back in Logic don't even come close to peaking. I've tried re-exporting the tracks with reduced fader levels and still get peaks on the Fostex.
Given that the reduced levels still cause tracks to peak on the Fostex, I'm suspecting a bit-depth issue. I didn't realize at the time that the files were converted to 16-bit when they were imported into Logic. The Fostex only works with 24-bit files and I'm wondering if exporting the 16-bit tracks in Logic as 24-bit wave files might be causing the problem.
If this turns out to be the cause of the peaking tracks, is it possible to re-import or replace the converted 16-bit files with the original 24-bit files and apply the editing and efx processing that I've done to the 24-bit files?
I'll greatly appreciate any help you folks can give me on this one.

i am very surprised that the fostex doesn't work with 24-bit files.
your peaking is not likely to be due to bit depth, although i can see why you might think so. maybe you're right.
logic has inbuilt -6db of head room you should know.
your suggestion of reimporting the original tracks from the fostex is exactly the thing you should do. remove the 16-bit files from the system and re-import the fostex files. open the logic project and it will look for the old files. for greatest ease make sure your fostex imported files have the same names as the ones you are removing. when it finds the files with the same name it should come up with an error message. select use anyway.
what's happening is logic stores information about the file, its length, bit-depth and so forth. so just get logic to use anyway and the files "should" playback alright.

Maximum audio sample rate and bit depth question

Anyone worked out what the maximum sample rates and bit depths AppleTV can output are?
I'm digitising some old LPs and while I suspect I can get away with 48kHz sample rate and 16 bit depth, I'm not sure about 96kHz sample rate or 24bit resolution.
If I import recordings as AIFFs or WAVs to iTunes it shows the recording parameters in iTunes, but my old Yamaha processor which accepts PCM doesn't show the source data values, though I know it can handle 96kHz 24bit from DVD audio.
It takes no more time recording at any available sample rates or bit depths, so I might as well maximise an album's recording quality for archiving to DVD/posterity as I only want to do each LP once!
If AppleTV downsamples however there wouldn't be much point streaming higher rates.
I wonder how many people out there stream uncompressed audio to AppleTV? With external drives which will hold several hundred uncompressed CD albums is there any good reason not to these days when you are playing back via your hi-fi? (I confess most of my music is in MP3 format just because i haven't got round to ripping again uncompressed for AppleTV).
No doubt there'll be a deluge of comments saying that recording LPs at high quality settings is a waste of time, but some of us still prefer the sound of vinyl over CD...

I guess the answer to this question relies on someone having an external digital amp/decoder/processor that can display the source sample rate and bit depth during playback, together with some suitable 'demo' files.

ITunes 7 and Shuffle:"Convert higher bit rate songs to 128kbps AAC" broken

This has become unusably slow in iTunes 7. Is this fixed yet? Does anyone have a workaround?

Drag and drop FLAC audio into iPod to convert and add?

I manually sort my music as albums in folder directories. I have never liked how iTunes wanted to sort my music back in 2005 and I don't like it any more today.
I recently got a 6th gen iPod Nano via the 1st gen iPod Nano replacement program and I am disappointed in how I cannot use Winamp to manage my playlists anymore. Winamp would automatically transcode incompatible FLAC audio into MP3 before transferring onto my 1st gen Nano.
I have my iPod options under iTunes set to automatically convert higher bitrate audio to 192kbps AAC, but dragging and dropping FLAC audio into my iPod gives an error message that prevents me from adding anything.
I thought maybe I had to import my audio into iTunes' library first, but scanning for media adds every audio file including system and program audio files to my library, which really clutters things up. It treats each artist as an album, so compilation albums of 30 audio tracks from 30 artists appear as 30 individual albums in my iTunes library. Most cumbersome.
I am also appauled in how it did not detect or support playback of FLAC audio. I am not willing to convert my entire library into a proprietary lossless audio format just because iTunes wants me to when other programs and I were getting along so well without iTunes and my 1st gen Nano.
Anyway, what I am hoping to achieve is to find a streamlined way to convert FLAC audio files into MP3 or AAC while I am transferring them to my iPod without having to involve another program to manually convert before adding. This is a huge convenience factor for which I am regretting having my 1st gen Nano replaced. I will admit that I am perhaps being overly stubborn here. Maybe I'll just sell this 6th gen Nano while it's still pristine and get a Sansa Clip or something. Apple products have become too stifling and I won't be surprised if there was no way to achieve what I am asking to do here, so maybe this ends up a being more of a rant than a search for answers.

foobar2000 with the ipod plugin will allow you to drag/drop FLAC files and when it syncs the ipod, it converts the FLAC files on the fly. MUCH better than dealing with the crappy iTunes interface and having to pre-convert the files. I absolutely loathe iTunes and it just gets worse and worse!

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software?

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software that wont cost $400.

I highly recommend you try Video Monkey. It's free, though donations are certainly accepted, and does an excellent job of converting .mov to .wmv. Choose Best (2 Pass) for Encoding Speed and depending upon the size of your original file, uncheck 320 pixels wide to create a larger converted image. I set Quality to "Go Nuts".
Another good commercial program is Video Converter Ultimate for Mac. It works as video converter and editor. The version for 2 Pass conversion is approximately $69. , which is considerably less than the $400+ that Adobe Premiere is asking for its editor. I'd still prefer a freebie though, but there's little choice...

When I Tick Convert higher bit rate songs to 128kbps and press sync it says are you sure you want to remove apps. Help please

Hi, I recently put music on my ipad (manually, I do not sync because I dont like leaving music in my itunes) I realised they take up a lot of space because of the bit rate so I went into iTunes and pressed "Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC" Then I pressed apply and I got the message "Are you sure you want to remover 113 apps......." I have checked and sync Apps is unticked so my question is why does it say this and is there a way around it. Also if i tick convert to AAC will it convert the songs already on my ipad or just ones I add from now on.

Why not? That's what it is for.
So Restoring your iPad when it crashes and losing all your music is acceptable to you?

Since you now want to sync the iPad and have told it you do not want to sync apps, it will remove them all.
Check the apps you want on the iPad.
Also if i tick convert to AAC will it convert the songs already on my ipad or just ones I add from now on.
It will only convert new songs added to the iPad.

What is the differnce between Blue,Purple and Orange Audio Tracks. Can you convert either to Green Midi Track?

What is the differnce between Blue,Purple and Orange Audio Tracks. Can you convert either to Green Midi Track?

Are you asking about Garageband? Your signature also mentions Logic, but I have never worked with that.
Concerning Garageband:
Real Instrument regions from your recordings are purple.
Real Instrument regions from Apple Loops are blue.
Regions from imported audio files are orange.
Software Instrument regions from recordings, loops, and imported MIDI files are green.
So far as I know you can convert software instrument loops to real instrument loops, but not real instrument loops to software instrument loops.

How to resolve audio sampling and bit rate differences before sound mix

I'm editing a project where an additional recorder (Zoom H4n) was used and synched to the camcorder track with Plural Eyes. Some of the sampling and bit rates don't match within the Plural Eyes synchronized clips and I need to send this out for a sound mix. Could I use Compressor to transcode the audio? Would I have to go back to my original separate tracks, transcode in Compressor and then re-synch using Plural Eyes? Next time ProRes from the beginning -
but if there's an easier fix for my current problem it would be much appreciated.

Thanks Michael -- you've helped me with the project before (back in May of this year).
I started this project as a newby back in 2010 and was a bit overwhelmed (i.e. just happy to get everything into FCP and be able to edit.)
I'll try the media manage solution, but if that doesn't work I think I'll live with the one-frame drift. I'm assuming
the only other alternative would be to go back to all the original video and audio files; transcode using Compressor, and then re-synch with Plural Eyes and go back in to match up the edits?
Thanks to your continuing help, I should know how to set things up correctly from the get go for the next one!

16-bit and 12-bit audio question during editing

This will sound more like a camera question, but I didn't know if it will be part of editing video with Pre7. I read this on a web blog and was wondering if there is any truth to it. “Mini-DV amateur video cameras can record sound in 12-bit or 16-bit audio. 12-bit audio is used when you want to lay down another track on the video tape. But 12-bit audio can start to drift out of sync with some editing software. 16-bit audio is a stable setting.” Also, what is meant by laying down another track on the video tape?

Paul,
Yes, to the intended purpose of the 12-bit. Now, if one is going to do any editing, I'd strongly recommend not adding that soundtrack/musictrack to the tape. It will cause all sorts of problems in the edit, and is designed for one, who wishes to just show the tape on a TV.
That's two votes against 12-bit Audio.
