Getting Started - Audition, Heil PR 40, Behringer XENYX 1002FX, Windows 7

Hi all, big time new audio guy here! Super excited to get involved i this journey.
I'm hoping to get pointed in the right direction with configuring Adobe Audition to record several inputs.
Naturally, I'm running into issues.
Here's my setup:
Heil PR 40 microphone
Behringer XENYX 1002FX mixer
Lenovo laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bitSkype calls
Adobe Audition CC
Here's my desired outcome:
I'm attempting to get things setup for podcast recording (my voice coming through the Heil PR40, a guest's voice coming from Skype, all going through the mixer, and eventually into Adobe Audition (hopefully on different tracks if possible like I see here). Throughout recording, ideally I'd like to be listening in on all of the various sound (microphone, Skype, computer noises) via headphones plugged into the mixer.
Here's my current issue and hypotheses:
By editing the properties of my Windows 7 sound "Recording devices" and "Playback devices" I've been able to get to a spot where I can record either my voice, or separately, what's coming natively from my computer (i.e. computer noises or Skype caller), but, I'm not able to record both, and I cannot do any of this in a "Multitrack session" but rather a "Audio file".
I have to imagine that the issue is largely my Windows 7 sound setup. After searching the web for tutorials, reconfiguring the settings, I don't make incremental progress forward, I take a step back and then one forward perhaps.
I know that Adobe Audition can do what I want, but I'm confused / questioning whether I have the right equipment to make it happen, or, if I do have the right equipment and it's simply a matter of configuring everything correctly?
I do hope that someone in the community has some guidance on this front. Thanks so much!

It is perfectly possible to record separate local mic and Skype tracks using a mixer such the 1002FX providing you pan the local mic to left only and Skype to the right. Then just route the stereo out from the mixer into the PC's stereo like in socket (if it has one).
I just spoke via phone to a real nice person at Behringer and they suggested this exact approach.
I tried this setup and am able to record both Skype / computer noises and my microphone into Audition.
That's a positive step forward.
However, to Donny's point, I am only able to record to an "Audio File" rather than a "Multitrack session". It does appear that when creating a Multitrack session, I can configure each track to listen to different inputs (OM1 and OM2, see attached image), and thinking that by adjusting pan hard left for the mic and hard right for the Skype / computer noises, it would be possible to split the incoming signal into mono 1 and mono 2 on separate tracks, but, is this only possible if I have a mixer that can natively do multi-track or a multi channel external audio interface?
I'm also concerned that by routing all sound, including the Skype call, back into the computer on one main out line, that the Skype caller will hear feedback / echo, is this a valid concern?
All that said, if I definitely want to do true multi-track recording, am I better off getting a different mixer, or, should I get a multi channel external audio interface for my current mixer? And if I do this, is my sound card actually going to recognize that there are two tracks (thus allowing me to do a true multitrack session in Audition)?
Thanks!

Get starting address of image after openning on Photoshop window.

Dear All,
I am newcomer of Photoshop plug-in programming technology and I am implementing an application that get the starting address in memory of image after it was opened on Photoshop window.
The process as follow:

HELP recording with behringer xenyx 2442fx into Logic??

Hey,
So i recently got a Behringer XENYX 2442FX mixer and I am trying to record drums into Logic pro.
The mixer came with a usb interface which takes two red & white L R cables.
I am trying to record into Logic however from reading other things online I'm starting to doubt that that is possible?
If anyone could give me help asap it'd be greatly appreciated as If i need to send the mixer back and get something else that will work, i'll need to do that quickly!
thanks again

If this is how it hooks up... then no.. you cant seperate the drums with it because your coming out of a feed that is the stereo track.. into the interface... theres no possible way with that set up that it could seperate the tracks out. You just need an interface with enough I/O's to feed into logic.. like a Motu... then you just need a mixing board that you can use to control logic and I think that would be ideal for recording drums.. but really if you dont mind mixing in the computer you dont even need the mixing board to record the drums if you have a sizeable interface... anyways.. thats my 2 cents.. hope that helps a lil

Cannot connect to GET STARTED page

Hello,
First off, I am sorry, I did a search and saw numerous posts on this issue, but about all of them either ended their replies after a user asked "Did you do this or that ?" or they just stopped posting... at most I saw some topics where it magically worked later on, but no real step-by-step instructions.
So, the problem: I installed XE 11g, no apparent problems during install (no warnings so I assume everything is OK), tried the GET STARTED link, but it said it can't connect.

So, can anyone tell me\help me on why that one isn't starting ? I reinstalled this 6 times and still can't figure out the problem... (as you saw, I even replaced the tns hostname with 127.0.0.1 out of paranoia). It's seriously driving me mad. Every topic I searched for (from the problem itself to even a step-by-step for dummies) shows an install, then the interface working... I see some questions regarding "I can't connect to..." but most are unanswered :(
Thanks in advance!
P.S. let me know if I forgot to mention anything relevant

jgarry: I believe what you explained may be related to the fact some reported the DB doesn't work properly when the event log is full (I just emptied mine so it doesn't apply). Normally I disable it but without it started, the DB is not working properly (not that I can get it started anyway).
There was a post on a site I found hinting at 3 things:
1. ORACLE_HOME must be defined as an env-var
2. ORACLE_SID must be defined as an env-var
3. there might be a problem with spfile
Regarding those:
1. shouldn't the setup declare it automatically ? I don't have it declared, but I added it (no change)As Orafad pointed out, Windows is different. It does have a search hierarchy it follows to figure out what the environment should be. So first, unset what you set and go into a cmd window and:
sqlplus sys as sysdba
Edit: Oops, I meant
sqlplus / as sysdba
startup
2. same as above, except I am not sure what SID to add so I didn't declare it ... The only 2 I have are PLSExtProc and CLRExtProc in tnsnames by default. I tried with each but the only thing that changes is instead of getting the shared memory realm error I get a TNS adapter error... trading one error for another is not funFor XE, the ORACLE_SID is XE (unless you do screwy things to change it). So now that I see you had some other db installed before, I suspect an environment collision. Delve into your registry and see what oracle definitions you have - this is a lot of work, things are spread around some, but searching for oracle is usually a good start. I'm not up on the 11.2 details (or others, really, I just have vague memories of seeing MOS notes that purported to explain clean up entirely, without truly doing so, and I avoid Windows as much as possible). I would uninstall XE, uninstall the other one, then search the registry for any leftover stuff, then install XE and see if it all magically works. But that is a fairly brain-dead way to deal with it.
So that said, you can set up a little batch file to set your environment in a cmd window (specifically ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID), and go into sqlplus / as sysdba and give the startup command. If you get the memory realm error, you have one of those wrong, if you get the tnsnames errors you can fix those following the advice in Ed Steven's blog. You can run tnsping to see which tnsnames.ora you are using, if you use one (which is determined by an @ sign in your connection string, which you should not need to connect locally, but if you do, you need to have XE defined in the tnsnames.ora, and may need to set TNS_ADMIN to get the right one).
Your tnsnames.ora should have an entry like this:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Yourcomputer.yourdomian.whatever)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
)You might want to search for any tnsname.ora on your computer, the default correct one would be: C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\network\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
3. I don't have that file in the folder but I suspect it might be created on a first successful launch of the DBWithout an spfile you need to use a pfile, then create a pfile from spfile. But there should be one at C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\dbs\SPFILEXE.ORA (if you used default installation).
>
Other than that I didn't find anything helpful in logs (or don't know where else to look), nor on sites.
I did have WAMP installed at a point (uninstalled it) but if it were to conflict I guess SETUP would tell me (since the XE license doesn't let you use 2 DBs at the same time)Is that some mysql thing? That shouldn't interfere. It's only installing multiple Oracle products related some what to the Oracle database that can be a problem, and normally isn't with the more recent stuff.
I swear to god this is killing my neurons :(When you find the solution, you will slap your forehead.

Who do you think I am? Santa Claus?
What you need is not a mixer, but an audio interface with at least 4 mic inputs. There is a lot of choice there, but you should indicate a budget. You can go from, say, € 300 to € thousands, if you want.
Roland UA 1010
Focusrite Scarlett 18i8
However, there are other options (like multi-out mixer plus multi in interface, or standalone mic preamps plus interface with 4 inputs, etc). I have little experience using these however so I really cannot say much about which one(s) to get. The two mentioned above both have four mic preamps, but they are by no means the only way to do it.
The cheapest solution I can think of is to get a second 1204USB, plug it in, and in OS X create an Aggregate device (=the two are being merged into 'one virtual' interface with two discrete stereo (= four discrete mono) inputs. Disadvantage: you keep the same (limited) soundquality of the 16 bits convertors. Getting any of the interfaces mentioned earlier will also mean you'll make the significant step up from 16 to 24 bits sound.

Advice: Getting started in the digital editing

What advice would you give someone with very limited experience, who wants to get started as an (paid) editor? (Other than don't do it.)
My budget is $14K.
What equipment?
Groups?

Go crazy searching the internet for tutorials, advice, sample videos, etc. You can find tons of free stuff. Look at websites dedicated to DV editors, and see what it's about.
Find someone you know who is a DV editor, or search for one through your contacts. Ask them about what they do and if they think it's right for you. They may be wrong, but it's a good start to see what people think.
Also, start editing some video with what you have. Work a little in iMovie for now, even though it's nothing like the "real thing," it's a great place to start toying around.
I would definitely start with Final Cut Express. You can't do almost everything you will need to do for a long time using just that, especially if you're testing the waters. Do you really want to spend 14K and found out that you don't really like doing it? It's worth spending the cash on FCE right now, even if you end up moving up to Final Cut Studio. Why? Cause it could save you over $13,000 of wasted money if you aren't sure you want to do it!
Do you have a camera? If not, find a good MiniDV cam (avoid hard drives, and DVD camcorders are a joke). I recommend the Canon HV20 for an amateur who wants decent quality. What's your computer like? Buying a Mac Pro can be expensive, but for starts you should be able to do the majority of all necessary editing on an iMac, unless you're a true "professional." I imagine by that time, you'll have earned some spare cash to buy a Mac Pro, and then you have the luxury of using two computers. You can have your Mac Pro chugging away at rendering while you do other things on your iMac, like edit smaller projects. Imagine how nice it'd be to be able to leave your big machine going on a serious project, and then work on small projects for friends/family on your iMac.
Also, decide what you're looking for in terms of a job. Getting a position as a professional working for a company isn't easy, because every employer wants the same thing: highly skilled, proof of training (education), lots of experience on the job, etc. How the heck do you get that experience without first being hired, when everyone who hires wants you to have the experience first? Yeah, that's a big complaint for people getting out of college looking for jobs. Basically, you gotta do stuff for free or next-to-nothing for people to get a foot in the door. You can also do private jobs, like weddings, graduations, parties, etc.
Speaking of which, is that what you'd like? Your own private videography company? If so, you have to know a lot about running a business, including people skills. Slow starts are the norm, and years of "is this really worth it?" are not unusual. Also, lots of family/friends asking for favors. "Can you do my wedding, we can pay you the $10 for the tapes, and then give you $50 for your time." Your family and friends won't realize how expensive and exhausting video work is! One camera alone can easily cost over $2000, and they think that their $50 or $100 is worth it for you? That's how you start, but you can't survive doing that.
BTW, expect the problem that many encounter: after doing free work for a while, you'll be called on again and again by those people to do another free or nearly-free job. You'll have to just be firm (and polite) about the fact that you've stepped up a level, and now because of your experience and professional quality, you rightfully deserve much more for your services. If they can't understand that, ask them to perform their job for you for free, and then tell them that you have to encounter that several times a month, devouring hours of time that would have been paid jobs.
Video work is kind of like acting: a lot of people get into it because they want to be like the big guys, but they never make it. Lots of years at acting schools and lots of auditions later, many wannabe-actors and actresses are working as waitresses and department store clerks because it just didn't work out. Also, a lot of video editing jobs are pretty gosh-darn-boring. Honestly, my friend who graduated with an degree in broadcast communication ended up interning at a popular company that was well-known in his circle, and although he made money, and there was nothing horrible about it, he said it was just plain "blah." He spent most of his time just trimming up and cleaning up clips for use in documentaries, educational material, and advertising. The complete lack of any sense of connection with the material made it a very labor-intensive task. At least working privately, you are using your own footage and feel a sense of connection with the events you taped.
Consider it well before investing a lot of money. My advice: grab a Canon HV20 and purchase Final Cut Express, and use primarily the web, a good book, and maybe a few tutorial DVDs to teach yourself for a couple months. Make some videos between 10-30 minutes long, and if you love it, start diving in deeper. Take some classes, get Final Cut Studio, and explore more of your options.

Getting started in SAP Security

Hi guys,
I've been in the industry working as an ETL developer, designer and DBA for a few years now, although mostly worked in a non-sap environment.
I'd like to get into SAP Security. I need your input in getting started.
What's a good place to started. So far, I've started looking at some webcasts at SDN.
What else can I do?

Hi Ravi,
How about this for a suggestion - 2 years each:
1) - Development (a.k.a. "Techi") - such as ABAP.
2) - Functional consulting (a.k.a. "Funki") - try to specialize in an area.
3) - XI (not sure what the "a.k.a" is...)
4) - then SAP Security...
(you can also juggle 1 and 2, or combine them to the best possibility... and get informed about the new stuff... but you will often meet chicken-or-the-egg there...)
(optionally you can either start, or end, with auditing...)
Much like Ben´s advice, this is just a suggestion for you to take a medium term approach without giving up after a few days.
Cheers,
Julius

Can't start Audition 3 goes to Shutting down message

I click the icon for Audition it gets up to Initializing required components and then a dialog box comes up that says Shutting Down to continue working where you left off, please restart Audition. Absolutely stupid message nothing about the problem and obviously I am not working/using it and restarting won't help because it will tell me to do it again without it ever starting in the first place!
I have:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
3ghz quad core AMD
the latest 64 bit drivers for my M Audio card.
All sound etc works fine for other applications.
Tried talking to live support, some women that had no actual clue about the software just wanted me to work through the generic steps like go to hidden admin to get admin functions, I already am in Admin totally useless. And sends me to cpsid_82827 trouble shoot that has nothing to do with the kind of problems I am having.

Sounds very familiar... I got all excited about aur and all the bleeding edge software out there for arch when I first switched and ended up messing my system up in much the same way.
Anyways, for starters you can post the output of
pacman -Qm
here to see if anyone spots something bogus that you've installed from aur.
I'm sure there are those that would disagree with me, but if I were you I would just save the output of
pacman -Q
and reinstall your system from scratch... Also, I don't know if you're using yaourt, but I would advise against it in the beginning since it makes it so easy to install unsupported software... I think it's better to download the package and makepkg it by hand because it makes you think more about what you're doing (at most use something like cower). That's just my opinion though...

Recording into Audition 3.0 via Behringer UFO202 USB audio device

I am running Audition 3.0 on a PC with Windows 7 Home Premium. This may not be the proper place for this question, but I was not able to put it on the Adobe Audition 3.0 and earlier forum.
I am trying to record cassettes into Audition via a Behringer UFO202 USB device. I plug in the USB and my computer sees it and I can hear via the headphone output that it is playing. I go to the Windows Recording Mixer and it indicates that a USB audio device is working. However, I cannot get the sound into Audition. It doesn't show up when I record to the edit window or click on the meters to monitor.
I am also using a HT Omega Sound Card, but their support said that it shouldn't interfere.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you,
New Orleans Audition User

Unfortunately you cannot reduce the levels of audio on it's way into Audition. Audition just records whatever the audio interface sends it. If the levels are that high when recorded into Audition then it is likely that you could be overloading the input to the Behringer interface. You need to somehow reduce the level at source in the analogue domain. Once it is in the audio interface at too high a level then any distortion caused will be burnt into the digital audio file and you won't be able to get rid of it.

Multiple attempts needed to start Audition CS6

When I try to start Audition CS6, it takes up to 16 attempts to get the program to load! This happens when I leave the computer “Hibernate”. If I shut the computer down, it generally starts on the first attempt.
My system: Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit, 12 GB RAM.
Does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this problem?

Er, yes, and I'm not being facetious - simply don't hibernate the computer. Hibernation has been known to cause all sorts of problems (I think mainly because of the strange state it leaves the RAM in) and I really can't say that I'm that surprised that it causes Audition to misbehave. And probably not just Audition either...

How to post a XCelsius in the BPC Web Application Getting Started page

Hi Experts,
I'm new using BPC 7.5 on NetWeaver. When opening the Getting Started tab in the BPC Web Application there is a white page that I would want to fill with content. This content should be a XCelsius Dashboard linked to the Query or InfoCube on which I`m planning. Creating the XCelsius Dashboard is not the problem, but to insert it in the Getting Started panel of the BPC Web application. Has anyone an idea how to do it or how to proceed. Ideas or a little how-to would be perfect.
Thanks very much in advanced,
Àlex

Hi.
Try this...
const string LIST_PAR_NAME = "lu";
string listName = string.Empty;
if (this.Request.Params.AllKeys.Contains(LIST_PAR_NAME))
listName = this.Request.Params[LIST_PAR_NAME];
else
throw new ArgumentException("Par lu is not present.");
SPList listExport = web.Lists[listName];
However take a look at this
http://zsvipullo.blogspot.it/2013/10/get-splist-from-internal-name.html?q=getlist
to check how GetList method is faster than web.Lists[].

if you hid the menu bar and the navigation bar simply press the alt button, this will bring back the menu bar and form there you can right click and select which bars you want shown
