Error on export to Sound Track Pro from FCP 5.1.1

I'm attempting to do Sound track pro tutoral that came with crossgrade. When I try to send to STPro (File>send>soundtrackpro audio project) I get an error message: unknown file type. The clip is a .mov file. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Or a workaround for that matter.
Steve

It's all in the details . . . you don't mention exactly how you went about getting the file into STP. Here's the process . . . in the FCP timeline, control click on the audio file you want to send to STP. This brings up a menu. Choose "send to STP audio file project". Do your voodoo in STP and perform a "save". You'll be prompted whether to include the original audio in the sent file . . . I generally choose yes. Once done, you should be able to go back to FCP and see a "sent" file in place of the original audio file with your voodoo performed. Sending the file in other other way will not update the file in FCP.
Hope this helps!

Audio Out of Sync Upon Reimport to FCP from Sound Track Pro

I exported Audio to Aiff from FCP so I could do some work to it in Soundtrack pro. I opened the aiff in soundtrack pro, applied a compression filter. I then saved it as an AIFF. All of this was dne in 48khz/16bit 29.97fps. When I brought it back into FCP, it gradually went out of sync. It was around 40 minutes long and it was a couple seconds off by the end.
Can anyone figure out a reason for this?

Yes, we had multiple discussions on it about 2 weeks ago. This watch 4-minute movie to see solution:

Sound track files from iTunes go missing on moving home directory moved my

Howdy all!
I moved my home directory to an external disk not long ago and found that every aspect of an Aperture 3.0.3 slideshow survived EXCEPT that the links (?) to music files included on a secondary sound track appear broken. (This audio is NOT attached to a specific image.) These were all from my iTunes Music library, which appears unchanged after the move. The track timings, placement, and names are all correct, but a little exclamation-point-in-yellow-triangle warning symbol occurs at the beginning of each new sound file. Could someone point me to a way to reconnect the original files to the slideshow?? (I've searched this forum considerably and Googled the issue.)
fleuryfy posted on the subject "No audio after moving Project or Slideshow" on Apr 6, 2010 11:41 AM, which sounds very similar; I'd be grateful to hear from him about whether he had to completely remake the sound track or if re-importing the audio
The phrase "reconnecting referenced files" occurs all over the Web in the context of the release of 3.0.3, but it sounds like this problem persists for music files.
Many thanks for any suggestions or references.

Problems with M-Audio Fast Track Pro interface & FCP\Logic

Hi gang,
I'm using a small M-Audio (Fast Track Pro) external interface to pump sound from the Mac to my speakers (and to input live sound).
I use it a lot with Logic Audio. No problems.
With FCP it does odd things on occasion. It suddenly starts to feedback, creating a horrendous din. Then I have to shut down FCP, replug the USB connect, even restart the computer to get it working normally again. And sometimes it just goes dead ... NO sound to the speakers.
Anybody come across this kind of thing? Any suggestions?
Ben

I'm seeing similar things in Logic Express 8.0.1. I didn't experienced this with Logic Express 8.0, though I only used it a handful of times before getting the update.
Using the Fast Track Pro as an output device seems to work fine, but when I create an audio track and monitor my bass the audio tends to drop out after between 5 to 30 seconds; using inserts on the track seems to make it fail faster. Logic looks like its still monitoring, going by the monitor level, for a little longer, then it gets "stuck". If I record the audio track while its stuck and then play back through built-in audio its a clip of the bass, about a half a second or so long, repeating over and over again making it seem like the Fast Track Pro is, itself, stuck.
While it's doing all this Logic and the whole OS have a tendency to lock up for up to probably half a minute, sometimes longer.

How to export HD to iPod format from FCP?

I have a 1080i timeline and am trying export using the iPod export..but instead of scaling it down to 320x180 (16:9) it scales it to 320x240 (4:3) filling the whole screen. Is there a setting or something I am missing?
Is anyone exporting from FCP in HDV and exporting to iPod? Love to hear some ideas or sites for more info about this. Thanks
Frank

Frank, when I began creating video podcasts Compressor wasn't able to create iPod-compatible H.264 videos (go figure?) so I looked elsewhere.
I came across ffmpegX and just love that program!
Now, I don't typically use it on HDV footage as my current podcast is all DVCAM, but I just gave it a shot with some HDV I shot a couple of months ago.
Worked like a charm. 2-pass VBR took 5 minutes for a 1 minute test clip. 320x180 16:9 apsect ratio. You can either export your timeline as a self-contained QT movie, or as a Ref. movie to save some space. Plus, ffmpregX can batch a bunch of files at once. I find that 500kbps for the video and 96kbps for the audio works pretty well and keeps the quality:file size ratio in good order. Play around with the settings and then create a preset.
Good luck!

Need to export an AC3 audio file from FCP

Does anyone know how to export (or convert to) and AC3 audio file from FCP? My compressor is not currently working, is there another way? I have Sorenson Squeeze and FCP 5.0.4. Thank you!!!
alex

Upload your audio file to my Public folder and wait 20 mins. I'll compress the audio to .ac3 for you if you're in a crunch. Check back in my Public Folder and I'll have it there for you.

How can I export comments and tracked changes from Pages to Word?

I just purchased Pages and tried to export a couple pages of my document to Microsoft Word so I could send them for review to a client who does not have Pages; however, when I copy-pasted into Word, none of the comments or tracked changes showed up in the doc., only the finished product. I've tried updating my software, but that hasn't worked. Is there a way to fix this?

Here is what the Pages User Guide says:
" Exporting Pages Documents to Other File Formats
If you want to share your Pages documents with those who aren’t using the latest version of Pages, you can export your document to file formats that they may be able to use on their computers or other devices:
• PDF: You can view PDF files in iBooks, and view or print them in Preview and Safari. You can edit them with a PDF application. Fonts used in the Pages document are preserved in the PDF file.
Hyperlinks in your Pages document are exported to the PDF file. Hyperlinks are also created in the PDF file for table of contents entries, footnotes and endnotes, webpages, email addresses, and bookmarks.
• Microsoft Word: You can open and edit Microsoft Word files in Microsoft Word on a computer running Mac OS X or Windows.
Because of text layout differences between Microsoft Word and Pages, an exported Word document may contain a different number of pages than its Pages counterpart. You may notice other differences, as well, for example, table layouts and some special typographic features may not be identical. Some graphics (particularly those using transparency) may not display as well. Charts created in Pages appear as MS Graph objects, which you can edit in Microsoft Word.
• RTF: You can open and edit RTF files in many different word processors. RTF files retain most of the text formatting and graphics.
• Plain text: You can open and edit plain text files in many text editing applications, such as TextEdit. Exporting to plain text removes all document and text formatting, and images aren’t exported.Â ePub: You can open ePub files for reading in the iBooks application on an iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch, or in any ePub file reader. After you export your document to ePub format, you must transfer it to your device to read it in iBooks. To learn more about optimizing a document for ePub format, exporting it, and transferring it to your device, see “Creating an ePub Document to Read in iBooks” on page 257.
If your Pages document is password-protected, the password-protection is removed from the new file that's created upon export. However, if you export to the PDF file format, you can apply a new password at the time of export. "

Exporting to DVD Studio PRo from FCP5 .... Can't find answer anywhere..

Sorry guys, but I have read about 2 hours worth of posts without any answers to my question that is driving me insane. My eyes are bleeding and I am tired of experimenting having to wait hours for exporting to finish just to find out it isn't good quality or not acceptable in DVDSP.
Here is my deal and hopefully someone can help me resolve my issue.
I shot in 24p HDV and edited in FCP5. Finishes project and now want to burn on DVD for friends and family =) End project is about 18 minutes long 720p
Tried using QuickTime Movie export and "current settings" and the file ended up being like 370mb, which seems REALLY small, so I am not sure how to change "current settings," since I am convinced those settings are not the best quality.
I then tried DCHDV PRO 24F in the alternate settings and I ended up with a 5.6gb file, which looked beautiful but too large for a DVD. I tried using compressor to make it smaller using m2v conversation but DVSP refuses the file. I would love to use a QuickTime Movie export that can get the file around 4gb and keep the GREAT quality and still be accepted in DVSP.
So what I really need from someone out there is:
What the best settings for exporting a 18 min HDV 24p movie from FCP5 to DVDSP losing the least amount of quality as possible?
Poor quality to me is flickering credits, poor colors etc.

I believe you have the fundamental misunderstanding of what is happening in this process.
When you create a DVD, all video material - without regard to original format - is converted to a highly compressed MPEG2 format and the audio to either an aiff or ac3 format. The video and audio files are then mixed (muxed) together into a series of VOB files. The major controllers of final quality are: original footage quality, compression bitrate and the amount of motion within frames. The overall length has an impact on bitrate as the DVD spec was designed for a 2 hr limit. HDV presents it's own problems as the 15 frame GOP format is not simply converted to the SD NTSC format.
You may want to spend time to understand how the mpeg2 compression works so you can make suitable adjustments if the result is unacceptable. It is a bit of a dark art but controllable to some extent.
The easy setups available in DVDSP are a good place to start and each parameter within the compression process is adjustable.
good luck.

Permissions problems with sound track pro and garage band

I am having a problem with the loops and sounds in Garageband and SoundTrack Pro. When I attempt to use a sound in garage band, I get an error "an eror occurred result code = -5000 File = Garageband-Temp-54E281E". When I do a search there are about 58 separate folders with loops or effects in them. If I isolate the one I want to use and change the permissions of the folder to everyone read and write I can use the sound, but I don't want to manually change the permissions for 58 seperate folders. I ran repair permissions using disk utility but that did not fix it. Any suggestions, I have a lab of 22 imacs, if it was just one I would just fix the permissions on it but for 22 separate machines, I would like some automation. Thanks in advance for your help.

I'll also add that I'm pretty sure I used this microphone along with the iMic USB a few years ago when I had my 'quicksilver' Mac G4 and it worked with that machine. As noted above, I've tried it with both a 2 channel and both the mono channel settings in Garage Band; but I am using a 1/4" to 1/8" jack adapter in order to plug into the iMic's 1/8" receptacle. The adapter is stereo to stereo, meaning it has both contacts for r & l. That shouldn't make a difference should it? In my experience if you are using mono equipment (like a single microphone) the sound will still be delivered through one of the two channels.

How can I export comments and tracked changes from Pages to PDF?

Hello,
I would like to know how I can export my pages document to a pdf that still keeps the comments I had made in the pages version. I am using the latest version of Pages by the way.
Thanks in advance...

Last week I printed a Pages '09 document to PDF and it carried over all the comments and marked up changes. This week I foolishly updated to Pages 5 and it won't do this anymore. If you need to print to PDF and get the comments in the document, you have to switch back to Pages '09, which I am doing tomorrow. Cannot believe they gutted Pages like this.

Music on Sound Track Pro? Can we use this for commercial use?

Does anybody know what the license agreement for the music that comes on the Soundtrack Pro software? It says it's royalty free, but can I use this for commercial use?

Short answer is yes. Long answer is read the license agreement and call your lawyer with any questions.
A couple of years ago I noticed that there were some loops belonging to APM, and raised the issue with them. It's licensed to Apple and through Apple to you as an owner of the software. You can NOT repackage and sell the loops though, only use them in your productions.

Best Codec for exporting animations with alpha channel from FCP timeline

Whats the best codec for exporting animations (hopefully using loseless compression) that will retain alpha channel, and use the current sequence settings for fps and size?
Currently Im exporting image sequences, but I'd prefer a wrapper.. I don't know much about the 'Animation' export codec.. I did notice that set to current size had some funky value of 753x450 or something.. instead of my current project size of 1920x1080...
Anyhow.. Just seeing what others are doing..
basically Im reading out some titles that I'll end up dropping over video later.. but since they render out so slowly (**** lower 3rds is slow) Im trying to get a jump on the process..
Tx..

PNG should do it. I think PNG is lossless (that's what they say, anyway). But realistically, if you use PNG, Animation, or JPG2000 set on highest quality, I'd dare you to tell a difference.
I use PNG because it's supposedly lossless, renders twice as fast as Animation in a FCP timeline, and is usually about half the size.
If you use "Export Using Quicktime Conversion", you will need to check all of the settings manually to make sure they match your sequence settings. This is always true, no matter what codec you use.
If that sounds risky, your other option is to go into your sequence settings and change the codec to the one you want to render to (this will probably turn your whole timeline red), and then choose Export -> Quicktime movie.
