Frozen tracks go silent when opening a song

It often happens that when I open a song I've been working on one or more frozen tracks will not play, they are silent. I fix it by re-freezing the tracks. Can this be fixed?

no the master volume curve is off and i have played each track as solo and they all go silent at 2:34
I hate to think but I m assuming when it got stuck opening that day it probably got to 2:34 and then when i forced quit it erased everything after
but the wave patterns are still there???
i have tried unlocking all the rtacks then relocking...but to no avail
grrrr...frustrating
(ironically the song itself is called "frustration"..maybe this is some divine sign)

Werid problem when open two songs

Hi,
When I have one song already open and I try to open a different one whilst keeping the first one open a strange problem occurs. As soon as the second song is open it appears at the arrange page and then it flicks back to the first songs arrange page. I then select the windows menu option and select the second song and the same thing happens. It flick on to the second song and then back to the first again. Its driving me crazy.. any ideas?

This is a common problem when trying to open 2 songs simultaneously. The solution seems to be (first) to close all open windows of both open songs including their arrange windows (but wihtout actually closing the songs in the process). Next, go to the Windows Menu and select song #1. Hit CMD-1 to open an arrange window for it. Re-size it so that it takes up only a portion of the screen. Then go back to the Windows Menu and select song #2. Again, hit CMD-1 to open an arrange window for this song too. You should now have two separate arrange windows visible and no switching. Lemme know if that works.

Plug-ins not available when opening Garageband song with Logic-Pro 7.0.1

Can anyone help?
Whilst on the move recently I found myself composing a piece using Garageband. However when I got back to the studio and attempted to open the song using Logic Pro 7.0.1 I get:
Core Audio: Plug-in "BassAmpSi" not available! then
Core Audio: Plug-in "Hybrid Bas" not available!
As these must be Garageband instruments I don't understand why they're "not available" or what to do to make them available.
Any ideas?
Thanks everybody!

I googled this topic and found a Logic forum - they said you should update your software to 7.1, then the problem vanishes.

WAV Audio Track 2 silent when rendered

Using CS4/ i7 & 8 gig ram.
Thanks so much for your help in the past. I've just noticed something strange.
On the past couple of projects, the following happens:
Using Bill's suggestion, I changed the mp3 over to WAV with Audacity. Everything works better. However, there is another issue.
I have imported a WAV music track into my project and placed it on audio track 2. When I first start further editing on the project, the audio from track 2 plays fine.
However, when I render the video, and audio render follows, track 2 does not play. Track 1 plays fine.
1. I can go to the preview panel and place the same audio file on track 3 and it will play fine................ or,
2. I can exit from PP and when I restart PP and reopen the project, the track 2 audio will play fine. If I do not render the audio when I render the video,Track 2 plays fine............
Why would rendering the audio shut off the sound????? Any way around this situation?
Tks, Tom B.

You do not need Audacity. Premiere has a feature called Render and Replace.
Is this rendering the timeline or exporting out of Premiere?
You can do whatever works best.
Select audio clip, go to Clip, Audio Options, Render and Replace. THis will render the audio part to a wave generated by Premiere.
See how that works.

Tracks go silent half way through song?

okay I have quite an old MAC (450 mhz power PC G4 1.38 gb sdram)
so I know Im making it work like a tired mule when i use GB3 + Jam pack!
but what has happened here TWICE! is I will have a 13 track song (5 vocals, 1 guitar and the rest software instruments) and as i tinker with levels etc the end result is that at the exact same point on the timeline the tracks just go silent? the player head still moves along as if it is playing something...but no sound? where as they had previously been fine...so the data WAS there before?
to make the song play (in work mode) i have to lock each track...and every time I alter it i must unlock and then relock (which is very time consuming...but I realise I am trying to drive an old Morris Minor down the Auto bahn...so to speak!?)
so can anyone shed some light... is it just my computer not being able to cope with the workload? or have i lost all this work : (
one other point was when i tried to open the file and the program got stuck trying to open the file, so I had to Force quit...could i have deleted some of the data there?

How to fix tracking values modified when open pagemaker in InDesign?

Hi everyone,
Would you like to help me to fix my problem when I open pagemaker file in InDesign.
The problem is I always receive the message, "Tracking values were modified. Please check text composition in converted document"
What's the meaning with the message, and what I have suppose to do?
Thank You.

It’s just alerting you that text may reflow. Given the fact that the entire document needs to be looked at carefully it’s something you can ignore.

Track goes silent when recorded with external mic

Hello,
I have a Rode Stereo Videomic plugged into a griffin Imic which is plugged into the line in port on the back of my Imac.
it sounds fantastic.
only problem is. when I record a track. I can see that it recorded, but when I try to play it I can't hear it.
in order to hear it I have to quit and re open garage band... EVERY TIME. very frustrating.
on top of that. I have to unplug and replug the Imic into my computer every time I open garage band in order to detect it.
any suggestions?
thank you!

Opening PPC songs on Intel macs

Hi everyone,
anyone had problems when opening PPC songs on Intel macs? specialy large music scores causes intel logic to crash...
best.
intel imac 20 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2Gb RAM
Powerbook 17 1.33 G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6) 1Gb RAM

hi andre, look up this topic here. justin c, has written about it, i think.
he recommends "rebuilding your autoload" for starters.
if these songs crash logic, you might have to do a fresh autoload and import all the files and start from scratch. bad, i know.
file corruption seems to be at the bottom of it all.
i have trouble just editing something in 7.2, and then running it in 7.1.1.! and i'm using the same mac for both.

One track doesn't open when opening a frozen session ?

Hi all!
I did a proper and thourough search first, before giong to this question. Didn't find anything about it. And wonder if anyone else has these problems.
Well it opens, but there's no audio track in it... read on.
All of a sudden, apparently out of the blue, when I open a session again, one track seems to be missing and I have to do an Insert audio track again, and freeze it a second time. It's just a trio recording of bass, guitar, drums, so it's no more than a 5 channel session and track lasts less than 10 minutes. It's even the "low" resolution at 16 bit and 44,1 Khz so it can't be a memory issue. Virtually no effects are applied until mastering out, where there's a little limiter on.However, EQ is used individually on each track and it has been frozen.
Having saved and edited a couple of times, and most certainly not have deleted ANY tracks, which you can't do when once frozen.
When I am opening the session again, just ONE track have lost its inserted audio track, and I can't open the "frozen one" again, I have to open the original once more and insert it. It's always the drums overhead left mike which is at channel/track 4. I've been scrutinizing of what I've been doing and most certainly not have undeliberately pushed some hidden delete keys to make it go away.
It's actually quite annoying. Before you ask, yes, I have the latest drivers, the latest upgrades, and a 3,4 ghz CPU Intel, 4gb RAM. Windows XP SP3. It occurs now and then say 3-4 times out of 10. I have just tested it to see if it had anything to do with frozen tracks, so I closed down the whole session with all tracks open - so to speak - and not frozen and then this error/bug hasn't occured at all. At least not in the 10 times I tried it with "unfrozen" tracks. So, a fair guess would be that it occurs while only I have frozen all tracks.
Anyone else experienced this?

As I said, read my post "Send me both ses files (no media) via my aatranslator dot com dot au web site". I made no mention of saving "frozen track SES files without any media".
I understand your frustration but I only made an offer to assist.
Now if you want me to have a look at your ses file to see if I can work out what is going on then send it to me without sending any of the media associated with it.
If not I'm happy either way.
BTW
The idea of sending 2 ses files is to compare the one which can't find the frozen track with one that has just been saved and apparently includes the frozen track.

Hello. I have a new Computer and import my mediathek with an externe storage. When opened the new Mediethek in front of every song there is a explanation mark: original song could not been found. I try everything. Whats the Problem??

Hello. I have a new Computer and import my mediathek with an externe storage. When opened the new Mediethek in front of every song there is a explanation mark: original song could not been found. I try everything. Whats the Problem??

But it seems the OP has a setup where the media is on the external drive, and the library files are on the internal. This is what I refer to as a split library, Migrating such from one computer to another is not straightforward. Often iTunes will have some definite idea about where the files should live, and updating the setting of the media folder won't change that. If it requires a drive letter change that is usually not too hard, but sometimes there is another preference file that needs tweaking to indicate which of the old & new layouts for the library is being used. In more extreme cases I have a script for automatically making track by track repairs.

When I try to open a song in iTunes it locks up for a time

Like the title says, whenever I try to open a song in iTunes (for example, if a friend were to send me something over MSN), my computer freezes up for anywhere from 1 to 30 or more minutes. Sometimes CtrlAltDel fixes it right away but oftentimes the computer is stuck until it loads. Does anyone know what is wrong, or how to fix it?

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

How do I get regions to place when opening an older song file?

I triped to open a song file from an oilder version of Logic, either Studio or Pro, and when Logic converted the song to the new "X" version, none of my audio tracks got placed. It's just an empty song.
Thanks gang!!

Please update to the most recent version of Firefox:
*[[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
Then for the emails, please check to make sure that this is still not happening.
