Eliminating duplicate loops when Soundtrack installed

I've noticed in GarageBand that I have many duplicate items in the loops browser. Almost every sample, if not all, is present in the list twice. Soundtrack (and FCE) came preinstalled on my Mac when I bought it from Apple, but I don't use Soundtrack. I rarely use GarageBand. I'd like to get rid of the duplicates to free up space, if possible.
Where are the music loops and sample sounds stored for Soundtrack and GarageBand? Can I easily remove one of the two sets? Is it better to remove the GarageBand-related sounds or the Soundtrack ones?
Thanks.

See here and here for information about the loops provided with both GarageBand and Soundtrack.

  • How do you delete Duplicate loops from AMG (third party loops)?

    I bought two packages from AMG but after installing them in GarageBand I noticed that some of their loops appear twice in the loop browser. I guess there was a copy of each of these loops in both AMG packages. I've tried playing some of them - just to make sure they're really copies of each other and they sound exactly the same. There are not many of these duplicate loops but they are scattered throughout the different categories in the loop browser.
    Is there a way to just delete each duplicate as I come across it in the loop browser or do I have to do something else to get rid of the duplicates?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
    Regards,
    Jeff

    I guess it will remain a mystery that I will have to live with unless someone can give me a clue as to where GarageBand is putting these loops or doing to these loops (like re-naming them something else) after I install them.
    When I drop in new loops the computer does give me a message that says it's putting them in the Apple Loops folder but when I look in that folder the loops that I just installed are not there. When I search for them using a Smart Folder or Spotlight or 'command F" they don't show up. I also tried searching for individual loops with the "AMG" in the front of the name of the loop and without the "AMG" in the front of the name of the loop and they still don't show up in any of the searches - yet they are there in GarageBand ready to use.
    I just don't know.
    Thanks everyone for trying to help me. I appreciate your time and effort.
    Regards,
    Jeff

  • Duplicate loops in GarageBand 11

    My GB Loop Browser shows duplicate loops, I would like to remove the duplicates. Not sure how or where.
    I know it's been asked many times but I can't find a GB11 specific solution. Previous versions of GB appear to store Apple Loops in different locations.
    Much appreciated
    AB

    No, the loops have been stored in the same place for years: HD/Library/Audio/Apple Loops.
    The first thing you should do is find out if you actually have duplicates in that folder. If yes, clean up so you have only one copy of each loop.
    The next thing is to quit GB and delete the Loop Index (also in the Audio folder). When you start up GB now, it should come with no loops. Drag your cleaned-up Loops folder onto the Loop Browser for re-indexing.

  • Hi, When i install add on Foxtab in FF4 then top left Firefox orange image get dammaged Why?

    Hi, When i install add on FoxTab in FF4.0 then top left Firefox orange image get damaged from left side and a small white image missing icon appear Why?

    There is a bug report about it not working when tabs are on top. You can use the keyboard shortcut Control+L to go to the address bar.
    An alternative is to use the F6 add-on to restore this functionality - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/f6

  • The system become very slow when I installed FCP X

    Hi,all
    Could anybody help to solve this problem?
    MY OS X is 10.6.8, and When I installed the FCP X, it runed very slow. Each step would cost 10 sec. or even more to go over.
    I use the lastest MAC Pro (QUARD 2.8GHz, 8GB, 2TB, ATI5800), so do not worry about the perfermance.
    Moreover, how can I archive the project files and the events?
    Thanks.

    I am not sure about your speed issues, but you can find your project and event files in User/Movies/Final Cut Events and User/Movies/Final Cut Projects from there you can duplicate folders and files to backup your events and projects. Hope this helps.

  • Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start.  You have insufficent privileges to start system svc.  Help?

    Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start.  You have insufficent privileges to start system svc.  Help?

    Download Itunes from Apple.com, not from within Itunes.
    Redo the install, following the below procedure.   However, when you re-install Itunes,  right click and run the install as administrator.   For Win 7, you have to hold down the cntrl and shift keys when you right click and then "run as administrator" will be an option.
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Vista, Win 7 & later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • When I install Oracle 9i on RedHat Linux 7.3 ...

    Hello , everybody :
    When I install Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1) on Red Hat Linux 7.3 ,
    I got an error when invoking the target of "install" in makefile : "ins_ctx.mk" ,
    all of the message is "Error in invoking target install of makefile /oracle/product/9.2.0/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk"
    and I edit the file "$ORACLE_HOME/ctx/lib/env_ctx.mk " , add a "$(LDLIBFLAG)dl" to the "INSO_LINK" ,
    but there is still an error when I press "Retry" and "Retry" ...
    Will it occur any error when I use Oracle 9i on Linux (because I press "Ignore") ?
    Does somebody can tell me how to solve the problem ?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Lai Yu-Tai,
    I'd the same problem. You can fix the problem (fixing provided by Werner Puschitz, http://www.puschitz.com/OracleOnLinux.shtml):
    "Error in invoking target install of makefile /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk"
    I saw this error only in connection with Oracle 9i R2 (9.2.0) installation.
    Also, this is the only problem I experienced with Oracle 9i R2 on Red Hat 8.0 (and 7.3 -MQ). But this does not necessarily mean that you won't see other problems described here.
    The following errors showed up in $ORACLE_HOME/install/make.log:
    /lib/libdl.so.2: undefined reference to `_dl_addr@GLIBC_PRIVATE'
    /lib/libdl.so.2: undefined reference to `_dl_open@GLIBC_PRIVATE'
    /lib/libdl.so.2: undefined reference to `_dl_close@GLIBC_PRIVATE'
    /lib/libdl.so.2: undefined reference to `_dl_sym@GLIBC_PRIVATE'
    /lib/libdl.so.2: undefined reference to `_dl_vsym@GLIBC_PRIVATE'
    It happens when the following step is executed:
    /usr/bin/make -f ins_ctx.mk install ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0
    Edit $ORACLE_HOME/ctx/lib/env_ctx.mk and go to "INSO_LINK =", add a "$(LDLIBFLAG)dl" to the line and save it.
    Here is the full line with the added "$(LDLIBFLAG)dl" flag:
    INSO_LINK = -L$(CTXLIB) $(LDLIBFLAG)m $(LDLIBFLAG)dl $(Long postings are being truncated to ~1 kB at this time.

    Yes. You can set the payment method to "None" once you log into iTunes on your PC/Mac. I have it set up this way.

  • [VIA] KT6 Delta hangs when I install SATA disk

    I've had a lot of problems with my PC - maybe related to the mobo, maybe not. I have a KT6 Delta LSR - and was running XP SP2 with a SATA disk on it. Not RAID - just standalone. It ran OK for about 4 months, then it crashed hard. For the last two weeks I'm trying to get my system back, but its not looking good. I think the CPU or mobo overheated - it was running about 62C - then I installed a new CPU fan and tried to render a DVD when it locked up and apparently wrecked my disk. I bought a brand new SATA disk and a new IDE disk. I installed XP fresh on the IDE disk. That runs OK. I removed the "old" disk (4 months old) from the system and installed a brand new SATA disk. But when I install the VIA SATA drivers, XP falls apart. By that I mean it can take up to 45 minutes to boot up (with an Athlon 3000+, 1Gb memory) and it acts VERY sluggish when I do finally get in.
    I don't know what to do. I'd like to try to recover data from my "old" disk to the new SATA disk, but the SATA drivers make working in XP impossible. I have bought a new motherboard - an ABIT board that supports SATA, but I hate to go to the trouble of replacing the mobo, if the problem is with SATA. Maybe SATA is not ready for general use yet? Is it still being developed and maybe it is generally unstable? As long as I'm, with IDE, everything seems stable. What should I do to get data off my SATA drive? I'm sorry I ever went SATA, that's for sure. Never again.
    Should I install XP on the new SATA drive like I did back in May and see if I can get data off the "old" drive - then maybe copy it to a network location somewhere? I have two fairly new 250 Gb. SATA drives that are basically useless. Unbelievable.

    I did not change the CPU. Just the CPU's fan. I did not reset the CMOS after doing that. I have a Thermaltake power supply and 1GB of  Corsair DDR 4000 - 2x512mb.
    In another post, I found a link to a post at Western Digital where WDC claims that the disk I have is the next generation of SATA and may not be compatible with the chipset in the MSI motherboard. They recommend to jumper two pins on the disk to help out. The only thing is that my WDC disk has been running OK since May and is the one that recently crashed. I bought a Seagate SATA disk to try to restore my system to, but whenever I hook up the Seagate, the system takes over an hour to boot up. Without the Seagate it takes a few minutes. I think that maybe the Seagate is also too new for this motherboard.
    I don't know how the consumer is supposed to know if a disk is compatible with a motherboard. I bought a SATA disk to use in a SATA equipped motherboard. Apparently newer versions of SATA are not backwards compatible but there is no easy way to know this in advance or to find out if your disk will work.
