Garageband Newbie: Splitting 1 file into 2 or more?

Let's say I have a 3 minute recording, all currently 1 track or file. I've got dead spaces where I want to split the recording into 3 separate files to import into iTunes. What command do I use and where do I find it? I read through the manual but must be missing it somewhere. Thank you!

select the region(s) you wish to split and use the split command until the section(s) can be copied and pasted in the manner you desire. highlight the stuff to be copied then use the copy command. create a new song file exactly like the one you copied from and then paste the parts into place. repeat for each section you wish to split. export from your 3 new files into itunes with share. hope that helps.
cheers

Splitting file into equal sized subfiles

My code is supposed to read in a file, and split it into 5 equal sized files. However, at the moment it is only splitting it by paragraphs, skipping a newline character, for example in the text below, the line after "...liked...mainly because it doesn't feel like a studio horror film.":
"But it's a leaner, meaner animal than Wes Craven's original film. The characters are more believable, the mutants are scarier, and the whole thing is incredibly visceral! This is the first studio horror film in years that I've liked...mainly because it doesn't feel like a studio horror film.
Funny side note: A girl next to me in the theater was silently weeping through the last half of the movie. Guess it made an impression."
Here is my code:
import java.io.*;
import cs1ll4.*;
import java.util.*;
public class FileSplitter
public static void main (String [] args)
try
File file = new File(Input.readString("Input Filename:"));
FileReader fileReader = new FileReader(file);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(fileReader);
final int numOutputFiles = 5;
//final int numOutputFiles = Input.readInt("How many files?:");
int loopCounter=0;
Object currentOutputFile = null;
String s = in.readLine();
PrintWriter out0 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter out1 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter out2 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter out3 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter out4 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter [] fileHandles = {out0, out1, out2, out3, out4};
while (s != null)
loopCounter++;
if (loopCounter == numOutputFiles)
loopCounter=1;
fileHandles[loopCounter-1].println(s);
s = in.readLine(); //code
out0.close();
out1.close();
out2.close();
out3.close();
out4.close();
catch (Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); }
}I would also like to specify the number of files which I want to split a file into, without being limited to five files...after I solve my bigger problem above, if you have any suggestions...Thanks

I have got new code which reads in a file character by character, and in it I calculate the size which I want each separate file to be. But I still dont know how to get it to print each chunk of the input file to 5 equally sized output files. (Or how to get it to print to any number of equally sized output files, specified by the program user)

Adapter file sender doesn't split file into multiple message

Hi everybody.
We are in PI 7.0 SP10.
In adapter file sender, I want to split a file into multiple file.
We use protocole "file content conversion"
in the field "recordset per message", I put the value 10 to test.
The file content 30 records .
The result we have is the treatment is not split into multiple message .
The treatment is made but with one message.
I need to treat big files.
Is there some one who have an idea why t doesn't work ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards
Edited by: Eric KOralewski on Jun 25, 2009 3:14 PM

Hi,
have you specified recordset name......if not, then specify it.............
in recordset structure, specify like RECORD,1 and not RECORD,*
again test your scenario......if still your file data is not getting split, then ask your basis guys to do a full CPACache refresh using PIDIRUSER..........your basis guys will know how to do it..........then again test your scneario............

Can't move files into folders more than one time.

I'm having a strange problem. If I try and drag a file into a folder then it will allow me to do that, but only once. If I try to drag another file into the same folder then it is locked. I can drag it into a different folder, but the same thing happens, I can move a file into the new folder but not a 2nd file, but it is locked. I have to restart to "unlock" these folders, but the same things happens over and over again. I can move a single file into a folder, but after that it locks up and I have to restart.
Any ideas why this is happening? It only happens in bridge, I'm able to move files freely in Finder.
Thanks!

I can't find a permission setting that would only allow a single file to be moved to a folder
Don't know if you already tried but use a check and repair permissions on your Mac using either Apple Disk Utility (applications / utilities) or a third party like Cocktail.
If still the same happens restart bridge holding down option key and choose reset preferences.
When the problem still exist please provide more details about OS and Bridge versions as well as computer specs.

Split file into multiple Instance of an IDoc .

My file (only one file) in the file system contains multiple entities(lets say sales order).Now using File adapter I want to transfer this file into XI and want XI to create multiple instance of an IDoc(for each sales order) and send them to the target system one by one.
Alternatively can I split the file into multiple entities(sales order) in the file adapter (using dispatcher for e.g) and send multiple message to the configured XI automatically.
Is any of the alternative possible in XI20.
Any responce would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Bikky.

Hi,
You can get the file adapter to split the file without the need for a dispatcher user exit. The config goes a little like this:
mode=FILE2XMBWITHSTRUCTURECONVERSION
xml.recordsetStructure=SALES_ORDER,1
xml.recordsetsPerMessage=1
This last parameter ensures each sales order is posted to the integration engine as a separate message. Therefore a separate Idoc is created for each.
Hope this helps.

How to Import Garageband projects and files into Cubase for Windows?

Hi
I've recently started using Garageband to record my ideas and compositions. I had 2 main questions:
1. How do I transfer the audio files created in Garageband in a format which will allow me to edit them in Music Software for a Windows based Operating system? Tranferring them to iTunes and then converting them to MP3 doesn't help because then my friends can't edit my guitar parts and other backing tracks.
Mainly I need to know how to save and import Garageband projects and individual tracks into Cubase/ Cakewalk for Windows so that my band guys can edit the tracks and send me their ideas.
I'm the only one out of my friends who has an Apple Macbook and most of my band guys still use Windows based Operating systems.
2. I record my guitars and other instruments using the Digitech GNX4 guitar effects processor as the sound source through USB. While I can record clean guitar without any problem, the moment I switch on the distortions on the GNX 4, there is a loud and constant hum from the speakers. I am therefore not being able to record distorted guitar sounds.
Please help on this.
Thanks and hope to hear from you all.
Cheers
Prash

Tranferring them to iTunes and then converting them to MP3
same as the protools procedure:
http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/GBFAQ.html#openinprotools
there is a loud and constant hum from the speakers.
Could be a ground loop problem. Test it using the MacBook on battery power only.

Split file into subsets

I have a single text file that contains 10 repeats of the same event. I want to overlay each event to check for deviations. I can set flags and copy each event as a separate channel using the time stamp, but these channels need to be created for each text file I open. How do I create such a template without scripts?

Hi mgb,
I don't think you can get around the need for a VBScript here. What you want is to load the data for each event into a different Group with the X channel values starting at 0 for each Group.
Care to share your data set so we can see what you have to work with?

Can I import old MacProject files into something more modern?

I have some MacProject files which were created on an older Mac under OS7. Under older OSX I could still open those files in the Classic environment. That option has obviously now gone having upgraded Mac and OS to 10.4.8
I have copies of the older Mac's hard drives safely stored and now want to import or open the MacProject files and save them in an upto date format for my MacBook Pro.
Any suggestions how I might do this?

ps_pause,
Welcome to the discussions.
It will all depend on the 'save as' options available in the older software. The data will be stored similar to a relational database. Just saving a file as text will not include all the linked information. Take a look at the save and export options.

Splitting Files into Mulitple Output Files

Hi,
I have a File (1) to File (*) scenario.
Both my input and output structures are the same
A typical input XML example would be
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<n0:FileInterfaceFCC xmlns:n0="http://kpr.com/sample">
<Item>                                       ( occurence 0....Unbound)
<Name>TestFCC</Name>   ( occurence 1 )
<Age>10</Age>                  ( occurence 1 )
</Item>
</n0:FileInterfaceFCC>
The output structure is the same. My requirement now is that, i would like to have separate files for each difference in <name> </name>.
How can i achieve the same. What mapping principles should I use.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi,
In the mapping you map your name --> splitbyvalue(ValueChanged) --> to the root of the target message. Then do the mapping.
Then in the sender communicaiton channel put no. of records per message is 1.
So on each change in name your file sender communicaiton channel will take 1 message at a time. In the file reciever communication channel you put the mode as timestamp. So for each and every change in the name you will one file. This may increase your traffic in XI.

TO send the SPlitted Files into 2 FTP servers

hi , IT'S URGENT,
We are using ONLY one INBound interface , Interface MApping , Message MAPPing .(no cahnges in IR)
IN Integration Directory We have to route to 2 FTP servers based on Company code .
WE have used XPATH with particular company codes TO one target Business service which we have created in ID where we are using one FTP server(FTP server 1).
For all other company codes it has to send to second FTP server for Second business system which has been created in SLD .
As now we created now .
One receiver determination
Two Interface DETERMINATIONs(As enhanced type).
Two REceiver Agreements.
As now we have tested
it is sending all files to both servers.
But we need to send to specfied FTP servers on the basis of COmpany code which we declare in XPATH expression.
POINTS WILL BE REWARDED FOR BEST ANSWERS..It's urgent
THanks in ADvance

Hi Guys ,
I have same scenario, But i made two Message interfaces and Two Interfaces mappings(eg : one for Plant1 and another one is Plant2) -
IR
ID :
2 communication Channels ( one for Plant 1 and another one is Plant 2)
Add 2 reciver determinations
Add 2 interfaces determinations ( here you need to set up Conditions) based Plants
Finally 2 receiver derminations.

How can I return files in Trash, more than 1 at a time? I can place many files into Trash at a time.

I placed many unix.exe files into Trash, more than one at a time. I recently updated 'QuickTime' and the Mac version of 'SilverLight"
(name might be totally 'correct). I don't know if removing these files can impede my iMac 2008 running OS 10.6.8(updated SnowLeopard).
I know I can 'return' one file from Trash at a time. When I try to return more than one ('mouse click' and 'drag'
over 2 or more files, the'return' option isn't listed. Is there a way I can either 'return all' or return more than one file
at a time?

Only one at a time. But where are they from? Did you delete system files or are these Windows files (.exe is a Windows extension?)

How to split a file into two small file

Hi All,
          I want to raed a file from FTP server.Then i have to split a file into two small file.File format look like this.

         R02!Service_order!product_id!product_discription!quantity
         R02!Service_order!product_id!product_discription!quantity
i want split file into 2 file,according to header and item details.one table containt header information (label R01) and second table containt (label R02).
can anybody help me for this.how can i split into 2 file.
Thanks
Vishwas Sahu

Create 2 internal tables. sat it_header, it_detail
Check for 1st 3 characters and if it is R01 then send it into it_header and if it comes out to be R02 then send it to it_detail.
Once done... You can either attach these tables into mail as two seperate files
Or you can download each internal table using GUI_DOWNLOAD.
Hope this helps!!

How to produce large Files (100meters and more)?

We are currently working on an architecutre project for which we have to make printed curtains/screens. The maximum of one Curtain
is about 180 meters (600ft). Over the 180 meters we have a pattern, which makes it not so easy to split files into pieces (color gradients, a.m.m.)
Our printing company suggested us to produce everything in a 1:10 scale (1 meter is 10 centimeters) and in 600dpi and they will scale it up with
their rip unit and print it than in 1:1. Final print resolution is therefore 60dpi.
As a start we are doing a 25 meters x 2,5 meters file - which is already super hard on the computer. (all new macs with 16gb ram and adobe creative cloud)
Is there any way of working like with videos - online and offline files? So that we work on a smaller scale and then repeat all the steps on the larger images.
We want to get our workflow optimized as we have to produce 3000 meters of image.
Any Ideas?
Thanks
Georg Kettele

First thing that comes to mind is to ask: Do you really need that high a resolution? Are people really going to be looking at actual print detail from just a few meters away on a project that's nearly 200 meters wide? In other words, are you actually creating fine image detail that matters at the 60 ppi scale?
The second thing that occurs to me is that a typical computer with just 16GB of RAM doesn't seem a good fit for working on gargantuan images. You've avoided doing the math that matters for the readers here, so I'll do it:
60 pixels/inch * 39.37 inches/meter * 180 meters == 425196 pixels width
Assuming your full length print will also be 2.5 meters:
60 pixels/inch * 39.37 inches/meter * 2.5 meters == 5906 pixels height
So your proposed image at this scale will be 425195 x 5906 pixels == 2.5 gigapixels. Assuming you're using 8 bits/channel mode RGB, that's 7.5 gigabytes to store the image exactly once in RAM.
Keeping in mind you'll need to actually WORK on this image in Photoshop, you'll need at least 10x that RAM (for History states, room to run various tools, etc.) and a LOT of super fast disk storage to be able to swap data to the scratch file. Numbers like 96 GB of RAM and several TB of SSD array storage space come to mind to even begin to think about working on such a huge image.
Any image that takes 7.5 gigabytes in RAM is going to be slow to work on no matter what computer you have today. And if you're hoping to work on an even taller image than 5906 pixels, then you start to get into the realm of computers that haven't been invented yet.
Third thing I'm thinking of is that you may have to divide it into smaller chunks and deal with manually aligning things you want to match up.
You could start working at a MUCH smaller scale, lay the groundwork for the layout using things (e.g., paths/shapes) that scale up nicely, then divide the image up for the finish work.

Dividing large files into smaller units

As the Disability Services officer for a small state college, I obtain textbooks in PDF format for some students. With a software package, I can convert PDFs into mp3 files so students can hear as well as read their texts. However, occasionally I receive the entire textbook in one file, which is too large for our conversion program to handle. I would like to know if there is a convenient way (free would be good, too!) to divide an entire-text file into smaller chapter-by-chapter files.
Thanks!

Good day,
Depending on the security settings applied to the PDF text books you're receiving, you may be able to use Adobe Acrobat to divide the PDF files into smaller, more managable files that you can process through your conversion program. We offer a 30-day trial of Adobe Acrobat X Professional for Windows here: http://www.adobe.com/go/tryacrobatpro/
As you're working for an educational institution, you may also qualify for our Student & Teacher Edition pricing.
I hope this helps!

How to split large video files into multiple individual clips by date

Hello. I'm looking for a freeware/shareware program (if one exists, or willing to pay for one if it does this well) that will:
1) Analyze a large AVI file identifying the start/start points of each segment of video and the dates the video segments were shot.
2) Then allow me to organize (for example, join 2 or more segments together if it's a video with a lot of start/stop points during the same shot) the segments identified in step 1 into logical clips that could be split apart from the 1 large AVI file.
3) Lastly, it would split my one large AVI file into the multiple clips or files that I identified in step 2.
A piece of software called FootTrack does a great job analyzing AVI files as I describe in steps 1 & 2, but it doesn't allow you to split or export the one avi file into multiple avi files.
I really don't want to have to do this one clip at a time, I've got to believe there's a program out there that will automate this process for me.
Thanks

I don't know of a way to automate it. I just did about 15 years worth. It wasn't too hard. I use an application called mpegstreamclip. Its very easy and free to download either from the apple site or direct from its site.

Bascically you set the in and out points with the i and o keys and export.
