Group X-Fade Problem - Grouped tracks apply different crossfade lengths when dragged in place? (What am I missing here?)

Super Friends/Fiends,
In Logic Pro X (and 9) I am hitting a wall editing a chamber string session I just tracked.
When I have multiple regions selected with either rubber-banding or phase-locked editing in groups, and I X-fade them with other regions, they apply different crossfade lengths. This does NOT occur when I individually overlap the regions. The process gets cumbersome/tedious and I feel like I am missing something here.
It is consistently applying larger to smaller crossfade lengths from top to bottom of the selected region overlaps.
What am I missing? Thanks for the help!

Same here, I'm seeing it with a LP9 project that I opened in LPX. I can't edit this way, it's driving me crazy. I also tried selecting all the regions and setting the numerical value for the fade time in the inspector, but that gives even more silly values.
Also, zooming in on the waveform looks very blocky compared to LP9.
I hope this is some setting I'm overlooking, otherwise I'll have to go back to LP9 for editing audio.

Problem: Photoshop CS6 applies two paragraph styles when one is selected

Hi everyone,
When I change the heading title within my text box, I select the heading and then select the appropriate style. Instead of just changing the heading, the body text changes as well. Is there a setting that's causing this to happen?
Thanks so much for your help!

First Bug: Simply having a layer selected (even a text layer) and then clicking the "Create New Paragraph Style" will create a generic style (with default settings). You have to tell Photoshop what settings it is that you want to create a style with. Simply double-click the text layer icon (not the layer name or the blank area around it) and this will open the text layer for editing and select the text. Now when you click the "Create New Paragraph Style" button, the settings of the selected text will be made into a style. This is how they are performing the step in the video as well, but from your description it sounds like you are skipping a step. And remember, there are two different ways of creating text: single click the Text tool to create line (character) text, click and drag a text box to create paragraph text. That is why we have both Character Styles and Paragraph Styles.
Second Bug: The Paragraph Style is applying with your text transformations calculated. So, if you create a text style that uses a 24 pt font, then you create text and transform it so that it 200% larger, when you apply the style you will end up with a font that is at 48 pts. A 50% transformation will result in a 12 pt font, etc.
Third Bug: Not sure why that is happening to you. My Mac uses half as much RAM and doesn't run into that problem. My guess is it would have to do with the fonts you have installed on the system. Do you still see this behavior if you disable all the fonts on your system (through Font Book or your favored font managment utility)? Your suggestion that it may have something to do with Fonnnnt Shop or WebInk may be true to. Just because they aren't open currently doesn't mean they haven't modified Photoshop and the way it runs.

Can I send Logic drummer separate tracks to different outputs? When I select the separate drum tracks the output is set and not changeable

I am using the Producer drummers in Logic where the different drums parts,(snare, overheads, Kick, etc) are broken into separate tracks. I would like to take some of these tracks (for ex. snare) and route it to a different output bus. When I try to do this the output is not modifiable. Anyone find a way around this?

The question is not to find a way around it, the question is why it behaves that way in your Project.
A Producer Kit is just a Summing Stack, were all the individual Channel Strips (Subtracks) are routed to the same Bus that the Master Stack Channel Strip uses as its input.
In the example of the screenshot, the Summing Stack uses Bus 2, but I selected different Outputs for the firstsix Subtracks, even a Surround Output, whatever is available under the Output Selection Button. Only the "Tom High" Channel Strip is still routed via Bus 2 to the Master Stack Channel Strip.
You can find more in-depth explanations about the Drummer in my graphically enhanced manual "Logic Pro X - How it Works".
Try to use a different Project and see if you can change the output routing there.
Hope that helps

Problem with the Z axis...blurred objects...what'd I miss?

Howdy,
I've got some vector objects in Flash that start out real small--like 20-30 pixels square. When I change their position on the Z axis to 'zoom in' on them, the larger they get, the blurrier they get.
When I just tween the x/y size, and not move the z axis they look fine.
For example draw a 20x20 square on the stage.
Convert it to a movie clip so that I can 3D it.
Scale it up to 300 pixels.
Looks fine.
Adjust the Z axis by 1.
Blllluuuurrrrrrrrr.
Did I miss a setting somewhere or is this just a limitation that needs to be worked around?
Thanks in advance,
-Ted

Rothrock, Excellent link, thanks for that! Have some points.
After reading it:
crap.
Looks like I need to learn about hand coding the 3d effects, or using scaling instead and adding switch when I need the z....
Hmmm...that'll require a little mor coffee.

When I load National Weather service (NOAA) for forecast, map does not appear. Never had this problem with Safari. My OS is OS 10.7. What's going on here.

When I open NOAA (National Weather Service Forecasts), no map appears as it does in Safari. Why? Mac OS 10.7

I gave up on fixing what was there and rebuilt from scratch including regenerating the key with the same modulus. And now it works. I don't know what fixed it, could even have been curruption of the startup-config since I replaced that, but it's working and right now that's all I care about.

AppV5.0 sequencing a web app but App not applying IE proxy setting when published.

Hello all,
I am using AppV5.0 SP1 sequencer to capture a customized IE/Java 6.32 app. The capture of the Java install is great and works perfectly as well as the IE shortcut, my problem starts with the
IE proxy, I would like to get a dummy nonexistent proxy to prevent outside internet access (Outside access is locked down through the proxy). Every time I sequence the app I have the registry settings necessary to set a proxy setting under the AppV current
user registry settings, but when the app is published it's almost as if the system local or GPO applied settings overwrite the AppV sequenced settings.
What am I missing in these steps to have my sequenced proxy settings stay and not get overwritten by the system applied GPO?
Thanks,
Ron

Hello,
GPO always takes presedence.

Applying Different Product Classifications To Different Groups

Sorry if I'm missing the obvious here, but I see no way of applying different product classification updates to different groups of PCs either through WSUS or through GPOs.
Originally in my environment we had one WSUS policy which my predecessor had rolled into the Default Domain Policy. In an effort to get away from this, and also to manage which types of updates get applied to which systems (critical and security updates
for some, and all updates to others) I created two new GPOs: WSUS > All Updates and WSUS > Selective Updates.
However, in configuring the GPOs I realized there is no way to designate the types of updates that are/aren't approved. So I went back to WSUS, and under the Options screen I opened 'Products and Classifications' and then switched to the 'Classifications'
tab. So here I can select/de-select individual update types, but there's no way for me to turn them on/off granularly. In other words, this seems to be a global setting.
So my question is this: How do I set up WSUS to automatically approve and install *only* security and critical updates for one group of systems, and automatically approve and install *all* updates for another group of systems? Do I need to use GPOs
in tandem with WSUS, or can WSUS do it on its own? Where would I go to configure something like this.
Sorry for the detail, but I'm really not seeing anything obvious anywhere and I can't believe I'd have to build a secondary WSUS server just to set up multiple classification groups.
Thanks,
Bob

Sorry if I'm missing the obvious here, but I see no way of applying different product classification updates to different groups of PCs either through WSUS or through GPOs.
That's because you don't. The WSUS server has one repository of updates, defined by Product Category, Update Classification, and Language. Updates are then targeted to computers by placing computers in a target group and approving an update for
that target group. All computers in the target group will evaluate each approved update, and if the update is installable, the computer will download and install the update.
Originally in my environment we had one WSUS policy which my predecessor had rolled into the Default Domain Policy. In an effort to get away from this, and also to manage which types of updates get applied to which systems (critical and security updates
for some, and all updates to others) I created two new GPOs: WSUS > All Updates and WSUS > Selective Updates.
So, all you really did here was declare two different WSUS Target Group(s). How you actually apply those GPOs to your client systems will determine which of either, or both, groups that a client system is a member of.
How do I set up WSUS to automatically approve and install *only* security and critical updates for one group of systems
You create an Automatic Approval rule to approve Security Updates and Critical Updates for THAT GROUP. (e.g. the "Selective Updates" group).
and automatically approve and install *all* updates for another group of systems?
You create an Automatic Approval rule to approve ALL update classifications for the "All Computers" group (note that you don't even need your "All Updates" group, you only need the "Selective Updates" group).
I will also take the moment here to severely warn you that approving ALL UPDATES for ALL COMPUTERS is a very dangerous thing to do, and frankly you don't even need a WSUS server to do that. Just enable Automatic Updates on the system and let 'em get their
updates from Microsoft directly and you'll have exactly the same behaviors with a lot less administrative overhead.
Additionally, based on the nature of the questions in this post, I would encourage you to thoroughly review these two resources in TechNet:

Group Calendar and different problems

Hey everybody,
tried to work with wiki calendars for a shared group calednar. The basic setup went well, but now i figured out some problems:
The DNS is setup well, and "changeip -checkhostname" works without an error. The client could ping the server with <FQDN> and getting the correct IP address. Server is 10.6.8 as well as on the client 10.6.8.
1.) When creating an event in the shared wiki calendar: the user couldn't invite any person. The inivited person didn't get an invitation. In the shared calendar the user is marked with an "". When creating the event in the personal calendar the inviation is working (see Nr. 2 below) and the user is shown with an "?" and when accepted with an check.
2.) Inviting an other person (within the personal calendar) will showing up the event in iCal with a grey dotted border, but he didn't get a notification in in the list. He could accept or decline by finding the event in the calendar, double click it and hit "accept" in the event window. That's working fine, but he didn't show an message when a person is invited, the event has updated or anything else.
3.) Permissions in the wiki calendar: The user has the permissions to read the wiki, but not to write to it (assigned to it with the Webinterface).
When the user tries to edit or deleting an existing event the following message is shown
When clicking on "Revert to Server" the event is set back to the old data - reverted - that works fine.
But when the user tries to create a new event, he's getting the following message:
when click on "Revert to Server" another message is shown:
Ignoring the message would keep the event in the calendar as well as "Go Offline" but not synced to the server. Even after manual syncing to the server or restarting iCal, he is syncing with the server but keeping that event showing up. After a few days there are so many wrong event the user didn't know what's a correct event on the server, and what's a false event.
That's very wired, because the user might think it's on the server, but it isn't! It's just shown in the local iCal
Could these problems be solved be reconfiguring the server (maybe command line?) or are they "bugs" in the Server?

#1 is not possible from what I gathered through monthhs of digging through forums. Group calendars do not send/receive invites. I even think I saw it in the Wiki Server documentation. Our method here is to send out the invitation from the user.. and then copy to the group calendar. The sending of events can be a tricky one.. Here I use an email gateway because our mailserver is separate from the ical server.
#3 I am uncertain what you say is a problem.. if the user has read-only permissions to that group calendar any modification on his part of the read-only calendar will flag with the above error message.

Grouping tracks or using a stereo bus - help needed?

Hi,
Situation:
I am mixing a 4 song EP with each song made up of around around 50 tracks.
Aim:
I want to be able to automate the level of groups of tracks across the mix. For example; I want to bring the drums (comprising about 6 tracks) as a submix up a few db for the Chorus.
I also want to be able to apply effects to a whole group, like say compression to the whole drum mix as well as to each track - e.g. a little comp on the snare.
Problem:
I can't figure out how to do this in STP. There doesn't seem to be a mechanism to group tracks together or to create a submix.
I have tried using a bus but this doesn't really work so well because the pan positions of each of my individual drum stracks are not preserved when they come through the bus. Using this approach I seem to need to set the pan on each send, effectively setting it twice (once in say the kick drum track and again in the send from the kick drum track to the drum submix bus). The problem being that if I change the pan for a particular instrument in the main track area, I would need to change it in the send pan which is buried away.
Have I missed something here or would I need to move across to Logic to get this kind of functionality.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Matt.

Matt,
Even if I had money to spend I would not use anything else to master with. STPro has it all. I've never understood people who mix at one studio and master at another. The two are so interrelated. STPro lets you mix (EQ tracks, set effects like delay, reverb, etc., and balance the volumes and pans of all the tracks in the mix) and then master (set the compression and limiting, adjust the spacial reverb, adjust the comparative volume of all the songs in a project) with the ability to go back and fix the mix and remaster quickly.
You are VERY wise to stick with engineers who know your kind of music. Having said that, I can tell you what I use for mastering, but I do singer/songwriter acoustic guitar, vocal and harmonica primarily. Not even close to an indie band.
Mastering plugins:
Compressor - I tried other compression plugins and settled on this one. I use it on individual tracks because it affects the mix so much and I have to put more compression on some tracks (harp) than on others. This is SO important. This keeps the subtleties of the recording from dropping out when your listener is driving and playing the CD in the car.
Space Designer - This reverb works best for me. It doesn't add blank time at the end of the song like some reverb plugins. This takes a huge amount of time to learn, so find someone who does rock and get their suggestions of which IR (impulse response or "space") to use. I use Music Club and Vocals-Short for my stuff. The key on this is the wet/dry setting which is mysteriously called "Output" on the far right side. You set "direct" to 0 and back off "reverb" to a range of -20 to -5 to go from dry to wet reverb sounds.
Limiter - This is probably the most important. This not only sets the top level to make sure everything put together doesn't clip, it lets you pull up the volume on the "out" track to bring the total sound to 0 Db for a hot sound file. This means your listener doesn't have to turn the knob up very far on their cheap system to get good level, thus there is less system hiss. It is the other part of compression. Both are needed to master.
Comparing Volumes in Waveform Editor - This is indispensable. There is no easy way to compare the volume levels of different songs in a CD project without a quick way to go back and forth. So after mastering each song, export the mix to an .aif file. Then open all the .aif files in the waveform editor. Now you can compare levels by clicking back and forth. For my music, I can also SEE the comparitive levels in the waveforms. (Indie rock may look pretty solid.)
Sharing Mastering Presets - This is possible now with Macs for both plugin settings and GB software instruments. IE I can actually send you the presets I like and tell you which folder to put them in on your Mac. (I wish I could quit my job and do this full time. A website where people could post and download presets and software instrument settings would save our music and film community so much time.)
This is a beginning. Hope it helps.

Different field groups in the different account groups

Dear IT Experts,
I´m working on restructuring authorization in roles concerning the IC and TP customers.
The goal of this changes is be able to have different field groups in the different account groups (TP and IC), for give you some more detail a good example can be, the same AMS user should be able to change general data and sales views for TP customers but for IC he should only be allowed to change the sales views, however when the changes are made in the roles they are being ignored because as far as I could check the system does not have as a rule that the field groups are or can be dependent from the account group...
I can give you a clear example:
Role A
F_KNA1_AEN -> VGRUP = 10-16
F_KNA1_GRP -> ACTVT = 01, 02, 03
F_KNA1_GRP -> KTOKD = INTR
Role B
F_KNA1_AEN -> VGRUP = 16
F_KNA1_GRP -> ACTVT = 01, 02, 03
F_KNA1_GRP -> KTOKD = THIR
Despite it looks fine, the system is not validating the account group with the correspondent field group in each role, so the field groups that the system use is unique, it means it the content of the object F_KNA1_AEN in total independently of used account group!
So my question is, can we apply any other object that makes the field group being directly depending of the account group, as we can see for example activities for each account group having something similar for field group and account group?
Can someone please explain me step-by-step how I can do this work even if by another method?
I´m quite new on this issues and I really need your wisdom to find a solution for this.
Many thanks
Katjia

Hi Manoj
The debate is each inidividual business unit has defined different account groups for the same vendor in their respective systems.
The question is : What is the best practice-- Should we keep Vendor account group as main table field and define Vendors with one unique account groups OR we maintain the account group in qualified table each pointing to different business unit.
In my opinion this is going to be very complex solution. Ideally we need to define all the Harmonization rules before syndicating data to different target systems.
Is this possibel that the same vendor record which is existing as vendor of different account groups in different systems have same set of attributes. If yes then enabling the remote key for Account group Lookup field is one option and defining a unique Account group 'AG" (which is mapped to say AG1 from remote system1, AG2 from remote system2 and so on..)..
Managing this via Qualified table will be very complex and not advisabel. As Rajesh also mentioned Account Group in MDM should be considered as Global attribute and all such harmonization rules should be defined in your project. AG1=AG2=AG in above exmaple.
Hope this clarifies.
Thanks-Ravi

Account assignment for group asset is different from that in asset

Dear experts,
I have creted one main asset . and i have created group asset. and my main asset class and group asset class are both are different.If i continue that error assets are shoud be craeted .but the depreciation key and usefull life and ordinary depreciation will going and it's showing grey.
My question at the time of assighning the group asset for the particular assets the below error is comming.
Account assignment for group asset is different from that in asset
Message no. AA810
Diagnosis
The account allocation 14000 of the group asset 140000001 0 is different from account allocation 1000 of the asset.
System Response
This error needs to be corrected for balance sheet valuation (usually determined in depreciation area 01). For all other depreciation areas, this is only a warning you should check.
Procedure
Check your entry. When an individual asset has a different account assignment than the group asset, it is not possible to reconcile the individual asset to the group asset in reporting by means of accounts.
kindly help on this issue
regards
venkataswamy

Hi sudhakar
Thanks for your reply
1) for example i have buliding asset class and i have one group asset class.under the building asset account determination i have assighned the gl a/c for both b/s and book deprecitaion
In groups asset class also i have done same things. i have craeted asset under building asset class and created one asset under group assets.
then assighned the group asset to main assets. the error is comming like this Account assignment for group asset is different from that in asset
I have serched in sdn forum and service .sap.com . they are saying you can use same gl a/c for both asset class.for depreciation .i have tried this scenario. still i am getting the same error and same problem.
The most important thing is we are working on ECC 6 versions
sap note 76186.
Kindly help me

Is it possible to group songs from different albums?

Can I create a copilation ALBUM out of songs from different albums, which are already in the iTunes Library (I mean without changing the album name for each song) ? Or, if possible, without making duplicates. It sounds more like linking songs together in compilation albums. Kinda like creating playlists that are actually albums... compilations. Is it possible?

In iTunes each track can only be in one album. If you want the same song to appear in multiple albums you'll need to make copies. An album in iTunes is any collection of tracks with the same album name and the same album artist (or marked as a compilation). Track order within an album is goverened by disc & track numbers.
See Grouping tracks into albums for gory details.

Grouping tracks- will only move one track.

Greetings.
I have a project that has about six "layers". Some of the layers have fades, and LT affects. If I click on a track, then click the group button on the other five layers that I want to move, only the layer that I click on moves.
It seems like it should be pretty straight forward. I did trash the prefs as suggested in another post, and ran Disk Utilitie. I'm using version 2.1 installed with FCE 3.5.1.
I also tried moving the blue line in the canvas, and that only moved the blue line, and nothing in the timeline.
Any ideas?
Jonathan

If memory serves me correctly the group track function is designed to keep all the tracks in a certain position. You know like track one with text "Live" on top of track two with text "Type".
When you move track one in the canvas, which in this example it's the track the other(s) are grouped to, it should also move track two so that track one stays on top of track two.
If you move one track in the timeline it doesn't move the other tracks in the timeline. By Grouping tracks the positioning will stay the same, in the canvas, regardless of how you change when tracks appear in the timeline.
I hope that makes it more clear rather than more confusing.

Crossfades on grouped tracks. It doesn't work!?

On PTools when I have some grouped tracks, if I make a crossfade on a track it applys automatically on other goruped tracks. On Logic 7.1 it doesn't work. Am I missing something?

You're not missing something... Logic is.
Until Apple realizes that this would be a welcome addition to their software, simply rubberband select all the regions on the arrange page that you want to apply crossfades to, and then put the crossfade value in manually from the parameter box at the top left of the screen.
You can either click and drag your mouse to enter the value, or double click on the parameter, and enter it from your keyboard.

Is it possible to order a group by a different field

I have a report that groups everything perfectly by Type. The issue I am having is trying to order the values returned in each grouping by a different field in the returned data, it is a number.
Is it possible to sort a group based on a field in the returned data, without having to create another group?

Never mind, just made the the second field a sub group

Group X-Fade Problem - Grouped tracks apply different crossfade lengths when dragged in place? (What am I missing here?)
