Final Stereo Mix Resolution

I am using Logic Pro and really liking it but am mixing through a premium 24 channel console to my final stereo mix is analog. If I simply bounce this back to the session I have my final stereo mix at the same resolution at my original tracks (I want to avoid dithering). I am thinking, that I should print my final analog stereo mix to the highest resolution possible, that is higher than I am willing to use for my tracking.
In order to do this I would have to buy a couple of premium converters and strap them on to my TASCAM DVRA 1000.
Do any of folks have any opinions or have you worked with a similar work flow?

Any way to create an iMovie Stereo Mix?

I've created a project with split audio tracks, when I exported it to my camera using imovie 4 it would mix the tracks, no with five it keeps them separate. Any way to mix down the two tracks to create a stereo mix or at least a mono mix of the two tracks?
Thanks for your help!

Hi David,
There ara a number of ways around this . perhaps the 1st one to try is 'Share" from the pull down menu>Quicktime>Expert Settings>Share>Sound to AIFF Options>Linear,mono or stereo AIFF at48kHz16 bit Go!
How long is the track. Could take a while...
2. If you have Final Cut , you have more control on output including outputing as mono.
3. Sound Studio http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/4811
will give plenty of features for a limited time so you can get it done.

Mixing Resolutions

Does the latest version of Final Cut Pro HD or Studio support mixing clips and materials of different resolutions (i.e. DV25 411, HD 1080i, HDV1080i and 720) into one sequence or timeline? Would it be able to playback the edit seamlessly? Can it also mix aspect ratios (16:9 and 4:3) in one sequence?
Would appreciate any info on this as we are about to work on a project which will have to deal with mix format client materials.

Not currently.
If you need to deal with mixed resolutions, you need to determine what your final or master resolution will be, then use a capture card to capture all of your footage at that resolution.
As for mixing aspect ratios, view the tutorial MULTI-ASPECT RATIOS:

Editing After Laying Final Audio Mix Into The Time Line - Possible?

Hello Board,
I finished my film recently and layed the final audio mix (stereo track) into the timeline, replacing all the seperate audio tracks. Now, I want to go in and do some edits at the beginning of the movie.
I still have the main video tracks and several other video tracks for noise filter, credits, etc.
Is it possible to link the video track with the stereo audio file and keep everything synced as I make the cuts to eliminate the need to remix the sound?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Lin

Because the video and audio aren't linked, I'm using the razor tool to cut in and out point on the timeline, first to the video and then to the audio seperately. after marking the spots with the razor tool, I delete the unwanted area in between (I do both to the video and audio track) and then pull the pieces together on the video and audio tracks. So far it has stayed synced.
In your case, Lin, I'd recommend using Add Edit and Ripple Delete instead of the Blade tool and the other steps you're doing.
That is...
1. At the point where you want to cut, press Control-V (that's Add Edit)
2. At the next point where you want to cut, press Control-V again
3. Select the region to be cutout and press the Del key, that's the key below Help and to the left of End on your keyboard, not the Delete key.
(This is a Ripple Delete, which clears the selection and moves all clips to the left, leaving no gap)
However it seems like doing transitions would be hard because unless I can match the space on the audio track it will all go out of sync.
I'm honestly confused by what you mean about 'space on the audio track' and things not matching - care to clarify?

No sound using stereo mixer with speaker balance s...

No sound using stereo mixer with speaker balance set between approx 95-100% of max to the right
Setup: good quality functional soundcard, fine when audio not routed via Skype, mixer enabled, Skype mic / audio auto disabled, issue present when tested using a variety of different systems, latest version of Skype was used on all machines being tested
Issue: When the speaker balance is set approx 95% to 100% to the right speaker channel using the Windows audio control no sound is generated. The issue is absent when audio is not routed via Skype. This would seem to be a Skype bug and would like to report the issue as a bug. Has anyone else encoutered this issue? Is there a resolution?

Yes, I restarted my computer yesterday and this morning all my sounds is controlled by the left/right blance percentage.

If you are talking about some "Karaoke" method using Logic I'll try to offer one. Before that I must say that most of the Karaoke methods are based on reversing the Phase of one of the stereo channel and bussing or merging the stereo into Mono. The result is: killing all Pan Centered in the mix - like Main Vocal, Bass, Kick, SN ect.
The artifacts of the Stereo FX of the main vocal will stay in the Karaoke, cause the FX is stereo etc.
Here is the Logic Setup I can offer to try some Karaoke trick using Logic.
1. Import a Stereo mix into a Logic Stereo track.
2. Create another stereo track and duplicate (copy) the Original Mix region to the duplicated track.
3. Hard Pan L/R both stereo tracks.
4. Insert an EQ and Gainer plugins into the duplicated track (R).
5. Set the Output select of the both tracks to a Bus and assign the new Aux Track Switch mode to "Mono".
6. Open the Gainer plugin and thick the "Phase Invert" Right button.
7. To keep the "lowend" instruments like the bass and kick, open the EQ plugin and enable the Low Cut filter and try some Hz settings 80-115, or different Q which will sounds better for your Karaoke.

Setting Stereo Mix to default recording device on Windows 8 HP Envy Ultrabook Kills Speakers

When I try setting Stero Mix to be my default recording device, the audio playback always cuts off after about 5-10 seconds or so. When it cuts off it doesn't sound good - it sounds like my speakers fry themselves to a quick and painful death if you can imagine that sound (ok, maybe i'm exagerrating).
Sometimes I have to reboot in order to hear any audio again on this ultrabook. Other times the audio will come back on its own after some time (it may always comes back over time, but most times i'm impatient so I reboot).
Is anyone else with my config able to set Stereo Mix to be the default recordgin and still retain a workable playback device? Anything else I can try?
I have the HP Envy Ultrabook laptop with Windows 8 Pro 64 bit.
Thanks,

I have since discovered stereo mix works when the laptop is plugged in. If it's unplugged it still will not work even though the setting "continue using while on battery power" is checked in the properties. If this is by-design I suppose I can live with this.

Trying to record Stereo Mix with a monitor through my headphones. Using Screenium to record Audio and Video, using Avid MBox Mini with MXL 909 Microphone for the audio through the interface.

Basically, what I am trying to do is this:
Record my screen through Screeenium, record my voice as audio through an Avid MBox Mini (interface) with a MXL 909 microphone to pick up the audio. I have all that figured out. I'm able to efficiently record my audio and screenplay through these instruments and programs. What I am having trouble with is the stereo mix. I am running into a slew of problems here... My goal: Add on the audio of a game that I am playing (for example, Amneisia) so that the audio for my game will be picked up internally, and not through the speakers to be recorded through the microphone. I want there to be no external sound except me talking into my microphone. I also want to be able to HEAR the audio of the game through my headphones (and if possible, myself as well, through a monitor maybe?)
Problems I have run into so far:
-Haven't gotten it to pick up in game audio at all while using headphone. Can't figure this out
-Downloaded soundflower, have the output as soundflower. Not picking up anything, will put all my sound and midi settings at the end.
-When I do record through my microphone, it is only picking up a single channel (left earpiece only, no right channel)
-I have figured out it is NOT the equipment, I use Pro Tools and am able to pick up both channels with my mic, recorded a few tests. It's settings and I can't figure it out
-Trying not to run 16 million programs while running the game, will cause lag.
Summed up:
Trying to record:
-Audio from gameplay of any game I am playing through alternative route of speakers (do NOT want to record game audio through speakers, internally)
-Record voice through Avid MBox Mini and MXL 909 microphone.
-Record screen gameplay through Screenium
I followed a guide that told me to achieve "stereo mix'' I need to download soundflower and follow "X" steps. That is done and these are my current settings:
Audio Midi Setup - Stereo Mix custom Aggregate Device, Soundflower (2ch) selected, Avid Mbox Mini selected, Soundflower Output #1 has 2 channels (1-2), using Avid MBox mini for "Input" in order to record. Using Soundflower AND Avid MBox mini as "Output" in order to hear the sounds and replay game sounds (could be the problem? Maybe?)
Sound Settings - Output Stereo Mix (custom channel) Input Avid MBox Mini (recording)
I'm hoping this isn't too hard to understand.. I'm VERY bad at explaining information regarding computers.. It's hard becuase I don't understand it. I can clarify anything that I am able to, so any help on finding certain things would be greatly appreciated.
My computer: Macbook Pro MAC OS X Lion (11G63) 10.7.5 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 4GB 13333 MGz DDR3 (If any of this is imporant)

Hey guys,
I tried to do some research and it looks like you need to have an external device and its drivers, such as an external microphone, installed on the computer to record audio that can be saved as a sound file. Another Suggestion is to try an auxiliary spliter for your headphones and external speakers?
What software are you using to record your game?
If anyone knows anything different, please let me know.

How can I connect an older Realistic stereo mixer to my 2006 Macbook?

I am a musician and producer and just got "LiveWire CMR-210" cords at Guitar Center today. One is gray and the other is red, and the end has a jack that can connect to your headphone jack or line-in on your computer. I also have a Realistic stereo mixer, it's a little bit older, but I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be able to connect to computers. My laptop is a 2006 Macbook running Snow Leopard. I would like to know how to connect my mixer to my Macbook and use it with VirtualDJ and Garageband, and if possible use it in iTunes.
Thank you in advance for your help. I'm new to Macs but I love my Mac so much already after learning how to use them.

Upgrade Office to Office 2011 for OS X. You can download a trial at www.mactopia.com. Old versions of iWork boxed sets can be found searching Amazon, eBay, or Google.
Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
You may want to consider as well:
These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
NeoOffice
Open Office
And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
Pages - word processing and layout
Keynote - presentation
Numbers - spreadsheet
Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
(Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

My computer no longer has Stereo Mix / Wave Out Mix.

I bought an HP G60-443cl notebook computer about less than two years ago. It had Vista installed on it. I was able to record direct audio using Hypercam, FRAPS, Audacity, etc...... Then I reinstalled Vista and now the only sound I'm able to record is via microphone. I checked the sound and audio settings from the control panel. Under the recording tab, only microphone is listed. Nothing else is there even with disconnected and disabled checked. Did I install the right audio driver? I installed the Conexant SmartAudio 221 driver. I didn't bother looking into what audio driver i used before reinstalling Vista and I don't know who manufactured this laptop's sound card.

Hi,
Record What you Hear/Wave Mix/Stereo Mix on the PC (Example: Record a Song that is being Played in Windows Media Player or Online)
Start->Control panel->Sound, click ‘Recording’ tab above, right click on Empty Space on Recording Tab above, check ‘Show Hidden Devices’ and ‘Show Hidden Devices’, we will find ‘StereoMix’ entry, right click on it, click Enable, select it, and click ‘Set Default’ Button below to have the Green Check on.
Click Start->All Programs->Accessories->Sound Recorder, Play a Song/Video online, click Start Recording Button on Sound Recorder Window, once done, click Stop Recording Button, it will ask you to choose a Location to save the File. Go to the Location, and Play it to check if the issue is fixed.
Thank You.

In Logic Pro, how do I record a stereo mix of my project?

I want to have a tape delay plug-in kick in on the last beat of the song, with a high feedback setting so that last note repeats synced to the beat, and fades out slowly. I have everything tweaked so it sounds just like I want it to if I manually turn on the delay one beat before the last note. Obviously, if i bounce down to stereo mix normally the effect won't turn on. So the first question is:
1. How can I automate this process so it shows up in the bounce?
If there's no way to do that, then:
2. How do I take the stereo mix output of my project and record it in real time?
Thanks for your time.
Larry

Hey, Pancenter and Ahrensof, thanks for your help. I briefly tried what you suggested, and probably it would have worked with a different delay. Being a well-modeled tape delay, suddenly changing the parameters produces artifacts. Then, before I had really spent much time with your ideas, I realized there was a hardware solution. The interface I use, an RME Fireface UFX, has a secondary recording system that records to a Fat 32 USB stick or drive. So I played back the project using the main interface system, clicked the delay on/off switch at the right point manually, and recorded it on the USB system. It worked perfectly.
I suspect that both your solutions would have worked had I spent enough time with them, so I'm going to try to click "solve" on both. I hope the forum software lets me do that. (It didn't. Sorrry Ahrensof, but I gave you a "This helped" and a "like.")
Thanks again.

Is there any Sound card 5.1 include stereo mix that working with MacBook Air such as Creative Labs SoundBlaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro Entertainment System ? and if there any another sound card can you tell me what is it please ? Thank you.

Okay, I did my best searching and I couldn't find anything that matched all your descriptors. I did do a search on both decoder numbers. SB0256 returned very little results, but with SB0466, I was able to find this ebay listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...6_fvi%3D&_rdc=
This card isn't a Champion like you suggested. And with my complete lack of knowledge, I don't know what I/O dri've bay means. But since it is PCI and the decoder matches the number you gave me, this card should be adequete, right?
Whether it works or not, my search indicated it might be very hard for me to find that card (or any PCI card for that matter). Everything I saw was out of stock. I know this is a forum for Creative, but are there any other manufacturers that will allow me to accomplish my goal, either with current cards, or discontinued cards? Thanks again
Oh, and I will vote on that thread. I probably won't wait for them to release the decoder since I need it now, but I still believe Creative should be giving the customer what they want

Is " stereo mix" missing in your windows 7 on late 2009 imac 24 or 27 ?

I have a imac 27 running Windows 7 64bit and no stereo mix option.
I am a professor and when I do screen capture of scientific clips I need I can't get audio to record except by the imac mic from the speakers rather than directly.
That destroys the sound quality.
I have tried to download other sound card drivers and still no stereo mix recording or stereo mix playing options in sound!
I have the fairly useless digital audio s/pdif but not the stereo mix which is really needed in all kinds of recording applications.
I also downloaded the cirrus logic drivers shown in another thread for macbook users, but still no stereo mix.
Any idea for a fix?
This is an important basic function for any computer, and I can't understand why this is not supported yet?
Apple has used bootcamp to attract Windows users who want to use Windows natively. This is one of the most basic function, full audio capability.
This problem as well the cpu going 20 percent higher just plugging in a headphone, and the fact that the trrs headphone jack does not work on a trrs headset in windows 7 (including mic) is a real negative. The trrs headset like the iphone headset works fine with its mic in the mac side but not in windows side.
Drivers to make the basic hardware in an imac or macbook work in windows 7 shouldn't be rocket science. We need apple support or an innovative person out there to solve these problems.
If anyone reading this has the stereo mix on the w7 side, please let me know on this thread and maybe I can duplicate it on mine.
If not, we know this problem exists for every windows 7 bootcamp user.
Thanks!
Best to all

I have a hp hpe-595a, i'm trying to use stereo mix with a hot mic. anyone know how to do this?

I'm trying to sing along with the music in the chat program Paltalk and also host a music room on the same program, I can only use the mic or stereo mix but not both at the same time.
I have been using this chat program for over 5yrs and have always been able to use Stereo mix with the mic active, using the realteck codecs or soundblaster (what you hear)
I can't do this with the IDT codecs supplied.

Hey Redritr,
Thanks for the question. iTunes purchases are billed to Store Credits first, before Credit Cards, as outlined by the following article:
When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.

It also may be that the iTunes Store is prompting to verify your billing information:
When there is a mismatch between the iTunes Store's records and your credit card company's records, you will receive an error message stating that your credit card's security code isn't valid or that your zip code does not match your bank's records.
In most cases, this issue is caused by a formatting error in the billing address that you have provided. You can correct the issue by verifying that the information you have provided is correct, or by changing the format of your address to match the format that your credit card company has on file.

FCP won't play mixed resolution timeline

Trying to play a ProRes 422 sequence with mixed resolutions (AIC, HDV, ProRes) and keep getting the Dropped Frames warning. I have closed all other sequences, turned off "unlimited RT", gotten down to two audio tracks. I am on Dynamic Video Quality and Dynamic Frame Rate. Any other suggestions?
I am really trying to stretch FCP to convince the Chief Engineer to upgrade our facility to FCP and FCE from an Avid shop.
Any input is much appreciated.

Yeah, that is the main issue, the conversion of HDV to ProRes on the fly. Another issue is the hard drive. ProRes 422 HD on a firewire 800 drive is pushing the limits. Adding mixed formats makes it worse. For the record, FW800 on an Avid mixing DNxHD and DVCPRO HD and DV...I didn't have an issue. But HDV is a whole new ballgame. Native HDV editing is taxing on processors.
If you want to do offline/online editing...have the editors work low res in the field and then come back and relink to the masters at full res...Avid is the way to go. Avid 3.5 is really rock solid and mixes formats well. And the software is cheaper than it ever was. Get one machine, or two, with Nitris DX boxes and the rest just software and that won't set you back much.
Figure out your workflow, then choose the tool that accomplishes that the best.
