For those using Logic and Protools

This is for any of you out there that use both Logic and Protools in your workflow. What are the reason(s) that you might do this? How do (if they do) these programs augment one another in the process of creating music? From initial idea to final mix, where do these programs plug in and why?
Thanks in advance

I hear that there is no automatic Plug-In Delay Compensation in Pro Tools. You need to set a value manually. According to a training video I saw of Pro Tools, this appears to be true. I also hear that PDC still isn't implemented in the version 8.0 release, though I can't confirm that.
For a guy that's been using Logic for years, I may just be spoiled as far a PDC is concerned, but it seems like for all those missing features in Logic (such as Elastic Time), there are important things we take for granted that aren't available on the PT side. Add the 32-channel (16 stereo!) limit in LE that we rarely think about in Logic.
That said, PDC and channel limits aside, version 8 of PT seems like a pretty compelling upgrade from 7.x. I hope Apple is keeping an eye on things. If there's ever a serious competition between platforms as far as features go, it starts now.

You're right.
but the one thing I do like about not having the computer calculate the delay, is that when I am doing my final mixing, I can calculate it myself. this might be a little geeky for some, but in the end it allows me to control this aspect of the DAW that I cannot do in other DAWs.
I have noticed sometimes in Logic that some things do not get played back at the same absolute timepoint. In other words, i suspect the PDC might be changing upon each playback. This is fine for most music, but when doing either electronica or Jazz (believe it or not) this is not good.
This has only happened to me once or twice, but is something to note. In PT HD, the delay remains constant, so dealing with it is a one time deal. Set your delays, and you're done.
Cheers

HOW TO USE LOGICAL AND OR CONDITION TOGETHER

Please do not post subject in ALL CAPITALS
Hi All there,
How to use logical and or condition together
I wanted to use logical AND OR condition together in where clause of Select Query.
eg where xyz and or abc

hi,
You cannot use the logical and or condition together at the same time in SQL statement. Sachin is correct while using the and and or in the same condition. You can get the data using or condition in SQL statement, and then use the delete statement of internal table using the end condition. please find the following code for the same.
select *
from dtab
where cond1 eq 'A1'
or cond2 eq 'A2'.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
delete itab where cond1 eq 'A1' and 'A2'.
endif.

Validator using logical AND or logical OR

How can I validate multiple TextInputs using logical AND or
logical OR. For example:
If TextInput1 == Null || TextInput2 == Null causes a
validation error if both are null but passes validation as long as
one field is populated or both fields are populated.
John

You could have a Boolean variable that is initially false,
and only becomes true when one of the TextInput becomes populated.
The variable could be set in the TextInput "change" event.
Your validation code would check the value of that Boolean
variable.

Audio recording using Logic and Mbox

Sirs,
I've to import vinyl using Logic and the Mbox (Digimedia) card. Does anyone have experience in such kind of operation?
Thanks in advance for your help.

No MBox, but I just patch my turntable into a phono preamp I bought at Radio Shack about 25 years ago (in order to have RIAA equalization) and the preamp outs into your interface and you can record like normal.

I was not warned that audiobooks are a one time download only for those using iCloud to backup. As a result I've lost my audiobook when switching to a new iPhone after the previous phone was damaged. Will Apple refund me for the audio book?

If you haven't been keeping a backup of your downloads (none of your iTunes downloads are included in an iCloud backup, apps, music etc are only redownloadable whilst they remain in your country's store) then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a redownload : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

How to search for files using wildcards * and ?.

Hi All,
I've been searching the forum for a couple of hours now and have been unable to find a good example of how to search a directory (Windows OS) for a file using wildcards * and/or ?. Does anyone out there have a good example that they can share with me?
Thanks

Hi All,
First of all I want to thank everyone for taking the time to respond to my question. All of your responses where greatly appreciated.
I took the example code that was posted by rkconner, thanks rkconner, and modified it to allow me to search for files in a directory that contain * and/or ?. Yes, I said and/or! Meaning that you can use them both in the same file name, example: r??d*.t* would find readme.txt.
I've posed my complete and thoroughly document code below. I hope it is very helpful to other as I have searched many forums and spent many hours today trying to resolve this problem.
Enjoy
* File Name: WildcardSearch.java
* Date: Jan 9, 2004
* This class will search all files in a directory using the
* asterisk (*) and/or question mark (?) as wildcards which may be

* Command line example:
* c:\>java WildcardSearch c:\windows s??t*.ini
* New sWild: s.{1}.{1}t.*.ini
* system.ini
* Command line break down: Java Program = java WildcardSearch
*                          Search Directory (arg[0]) = C:\Windows
*                          Files To Search (arg[1]) = s??t*.ini
* Note: Some commands will not work from the command line for arg[1]

Real Time ADC/DAC for SMPS using Labview and USB

Hello all,
I have asked the sales department this same question, so here's a two-pronged approach:
I am reserching a control algorithm for a switch-mode power supply, and so far, the simulations for its performance look good. Now, the goal is to implement the circuit for experimental data.
I've seen several NI USB DAQ boxes that appear to have the performance I'm looking for (for example, the USB-6211 would have the resolution and sampling rate that I need).
The control algorithm uses the following math functions: add/sub/mult/div/exponent, and derivative/integral.
My question is this: is Labview "strong" enough to take in four channels of 250Ksps data, crunch the numbers in an equation, and spit out the answer to an analog out channel, all in REAL time? I'm looking for an analog output rate of ~100kHz.
Thank you for any suggestions that you have!
-Rick
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hey,
So if you were just trying to perform an input or output then the USB-6211 would certainly be able to handle it because the hardware clock would be handling the input/output, not software. However, what you're wanting to do, basically a feedback system, will require software timing (at least for a USB device) because you'll have to be able to actively specify what the output is. So, for that reason alone, and the fact that you want 100kHz output, this device and USB devices in general won't be an option no matter what software you use, LabVIEW or otherwise. On another note, what you're looking to do sounds more like live updating, not Real-Time, which is more about jitter. Bottom line, for these kinds of requirements, you're going to need to move to an FPGA board, something like the NI PCIe-7841R would work. It's more expensive, but for your requirements, FPGA is going to be the only option and it comes down to bus latency as well as software response time. With FPGA, as is shown in the first diagram of the following document, you're basically closing your software loop through hardware.

Problem when "Checking for Mail" using IMAP and POP

Hello,
I have an iPhone 3G running 2.0.1 and created 3 mail accounts (1 Gmail using IMAP, and 2 using POP).
When I first set up the phone 2 days ago the installer copied the settings from my Mac and emails on my iPhone showed up correctly.
Since yesterday something is screwed up because when I try to fetch new email I only see "Checking for Mail" at the bottom of the screen but nothing happens and new emails don't show up.
Any idea how to fix this problem?
Thanks!

FYI you don't actually have to completely reboot the phone. From inside your email program, push and hold the HOME button for 7 or 8 seconds until it exits email and dumps you back at your home screen. That causes a hard-quit of the email program and will reset it. You should begin getting email again immediately after.
Here's hoping Apple fixes that anomaly on their next release...

Searching for instances using getIntancesByFilter and ClientProcessService

I am trying to get an array of all instances in a process so I can get some the data and use it to populate some dropdowns. I am using a custom, AJAX-enabled JSF presentation to call a server-side-no method in my component model. My code looks like this:
Fuego.Papi.Instance[] things;
Fuego.Papi.ClientProcessService cps = new Fuego.Papi.ClientProcessService();
cps.connect();
Fuego.Papi.InstanceFilter filter = new Fuego.Papi.InstanceFilter();
filter.create(cps);
filter.searchScope = SearchScope(ParticipantScope.ALL, StatusScope.ALL);
filter.addAttributeTo("projVar", Comparison.IS, "projValue");
things = cps.getInstancesByFilter(filter);
foreach (thing in things){
     logMessage("Thing - " + thing.activityName + ".", "INFO");
cps.disconnectFrom();
I think the code is failing at line filter.create(cps), but I can't be sure. When I launch the screenflow, I am presented with an error about invalid arguments for method signature [nameOfMethod]. I can't debug the method either because of this error.
If I remove everything south of cps.connect();, I can loop through the project vars defined in the process. I am using a ClientProcessService because I want to use the existing session from the workspace to get this data. Any thoughts?

I think you're just missing the processId in your logic ("/OrderEntry" in the logic below). Your use of "projValue" won't work unless you're looking for the hard coded string "projValue".
// Create objects used by the filter that searches the engine
ClientBusinessProcess cbp;
InstanceFilter instF;
// Connect to the process that is currently running.
// In this example, the process name is "Order Entry"
// (no space characters).
cbp.connectTo(processId : "/OrderEntry");
// create the filter
instF.create(processService : cbp.processService);
// filter based on instances done by ALL participants in any
//   activity between the Begin and End activities
//   (ONLY_INPROCESS)
instF.searchScope = SearchScope(participantScope : ParticipantScope.ALL, statusScope : StatusScope.ONLY_INPROCESS);
// Get the orders with a order status of "Rejected"
instF.addAttributeTo("projjVar", Comparison.IS, "Rejected");
. . .Dan
orderCount = length (getInstancesByFilter(cbp, instF))
return orderCount

QuickTime Movie Files Won't Convert For iPod using iTunes and QuickTime Pro

I've got a ton, and I mean a ton of QuickTime movie files of music videos that I want to convert to use on the iPod. I tried using "Convert Selection For iPod" in the Advanced Menu on iTunes, but got the following message trying convert a QuickTime file of U2's Beautiful Day:
""Beautiful Day" could not be converted because this file does not allow for saving or conversion."
I purchased QuickTime Pro hoping that the features on Pro would convert the file. When I opened the same file to convert using QuickTime Pro, "Export" under the file menu was grayed out so I couldn't select it.
You'd think that an APPLE QuickTime Movie file that can be played on APPLE'S iTunes and APPLE'S QuickTime Player would be able to be converted to be used in APPLE'S iPod player. (Anybody notice how APPLE is capitalized to point out that the the hardware, software and file formats are ALL Apple?)
Instead I wasted money buying QuickTime Pro when it won't do what I specifically bought it for. Now I have all these QuickTime files which won't play on the iPod.
Can anybody provide some help or assistance on how to accomplish what I'm trying to accomplish???

If the file doesn't allow saving or conversions then it is protected by DRM (Fairplay).
Nothing can help QuickTime Pro convert protected files.

Workaround solution for those using Mac OSX 10.9.4 who can't scan

I recently upgraded my Mac Mini to OSX 10.9.4 and have been unable to scan using the Scan button on my Deskjet 4400 All-in-One printer (I have updated all my Apple software). I accidentally found that if I go to Systems Preferences and click on Printers and Scanners, I can click on Scan and then on Open Scanner and can scan from there.
It's not the easiest way to scan but at least I am able to scan. Hope HP will soon find a way that it will work just using the Scan button on the printer.
This question was solved.

Hi,
A Full Feature software is not available for your printer for OS X Mavericks, I'm sorry to inform you that a such is only available for newer models and will not be available for your printer.
Scanning from the front panel is not supported on the operating system but only via Image Capture, Preview or Printers & Scanners as listed in the following document:
