Has Distributed audio processing been succesfull for anyone?

Can anyone who has worked with Distributed audio processing please post there set up and if it has been very successfull etc.
thanks

For your comps listed it may not be terribly valuable. It's not terribly valuable for mine-larger, more modern comps can handle alot more. You can always try it.

Either import your Songs into a new clean library, or rebuild your existing library - it would appear your current library is corrupt.

Will distributed audio processing work on Intel Macs?

I'm currently anticipating that I'm going to need more processing power to run virtual instruments and plug-ins in Logic Pro 7. The obvious solution is to get a second G5 and run it as a node, but I won't need it for a while yet. I might be able to put it off until the new Intel-based Macs come out next year, but then here's the key question: Does anyone know whether the Intel-based PowerMacs (and PowerBooks, for that matter...when they arrive) will be compatible as distributed audio processing nodes with a PowerMac G5 (PPC) host?

Macs is Macs. The processor will make no difference. It's the OS that counts.
How can you be certain? I have asked the same question elsewhere and the response I got was, "Even if anybody did know the answer to your question they would be developers who are under a strict Non-Dislcosure Agreement. You'll most likely just have to wait and see."
I'm not at all certain that it's a given. I'm not arguing your point that "It's the OS that counts." I agree. Nevertheless, we're talking about a significant change in fundamental hardware architecture, so the question as to whether a MacIntel and a PPC G5 will have the same interoperability as two G5s still seems reasonable to me. I don't doubt that it's possible, but I suspect that the MacIntel node machine might have to pay a price in CPU overhead for making the translation. After all, its software will be different.
I'll probably get another G5 anyway. I mean, it's not like it's going to be obsolete. I can run Logic Pro 7 in its current configuration for a looonnnggg time before I exhaust its capabilities. I'll run into hardware limitations long before I ever run into a software limitation.

Distributed Audio Processing Question

This is probably a dumb question, but would there be any value in using a Mac Mini (or multiple Mini's using a switch) for Distributed Audio Processing? I tend to favor complex reverbs across my mixes and will be using some software instruments and would like to reduce/prevent the processor hit as I'm on a 2.4GHz iMac. I'm running 4 gigs of RAM so memory shouldn't be an issue.
Yeah, I'm a Logic noob, so please be kind if this is a moronic idea :-p

Hi.
Interessting Question. The macmini must have an intel core cpu and gigabit ethernet. The older models don't fit the specs for Logics QNode wich is needed, to let the iMac do distributed audio processing on the macmini. Additionally you have to connect the two macs with a gigabit network.
http://www.apple.com/logicstudio/logicpro/specs.html
But i think there are better ways to fit your audio-needs. If you haven't bought the minis yet, buy an MacPro for this work and if this machine even aren't fast enough, then let the iMac do the distributed audio processing.
Additionally power can added to the MP with an Universal Audio DSP-Card.

I don't know how your workflow looks like. If you don't need the effects at the same time you record the virtual instruments, then do all the processing after the recording. This way should be the cheapest and best.

Why has the "Job" movie been loading for the past 3 days? I have a 10Mb Uverse Internet connection.

It should not take more than 4 hr. Is there any indication it is making process? i.e. When you click on it to play do you get a message like "Will be avialable in 2hr 34 min"? Is that time changing? I would cancel the download. Restart ATV and then retry. If it goes more than 4hr then there is an issue.
As another option you can always download the movie to your computer and use the iTuens menus to play it from your computer under the Computers icon.

HT1386 I have purchased a book and it went (accidently) to my PC. How do I get it from PC to iphone 5? the book now has an "epub" extension. Thanks for anyone who can answer! Frustrated !!!

I'll assume that you are referring to purchasing a book in iTunes. If that is the case, you can transfer the purchase with the phone, or you can sync the phone and iTunes.

How has Yahoo! Mail been working for you the last few days?

Has anyone seen any improvements? What about sent mail, has everything actually indeed been sent? Has "push" mail improved? For me I've found all my sent mail has been sent since Monday AM, but I have been power cycling my iphone 2 to 3 times a day(maybe that has something to do with it), as far as "push" mail, still the same for me, sometimes I get the message right away, other times with a delay of around an hour.
Cheers

I don't send much email from my iPhone so haven't noticed any problems with that, but I have noticed Yahoo push working very well (virtually instantly) for the last couple of weeks. I have a job where my phone needs to be turned off on a daily basis and often 3-4 times per day. Take from that what you will...

Distributed Audio Processing

Does this only work with G5"s? I'm looking at possibly upgrading to Logic Pro and I was really excited about Distrubuted Audio Processing but then I'd read something saying it only works on G5's. Is this true? Are there any other requirements?

Mmm, doesn't 'only' work on G5's, however, that is where you will see the most benefit, as there is 'some' overhead associated with the process.
It also says you need gigabit ethernet, however, it will work in hundred base, but the above statement applies also. See if can borrow a G5 and have a go with your Powerbook. It is easy to setup and doesn't interfere with the node system. Make sure you install the latest versions of Logic and the latest Logic Node on the node system (G5).
Note, you can also use a Firewire cable between the units for networking, should the ethernet ports already be taken. (the newest Dual Core macs now have two gigabit ether ports!)

Why has the same album been paid for twice??

Hi
Can someone point me in the right direction re iTunes store and an album purchase I've now seemingly paid for twice?
It seems my daughter has downloaded the same album twice on two separate devices (iPhone 5c and iMac), both logged into the same iTunes account, and I've paid for it twice!! Nothing against Ed Sheeran but come on Apple....the same Apple ID on both devices and I've paid for the album twice now??
Thanks to the community in advance of your help.
Graeme

If it's the same version of the album that you've been charged for (e.g. the album doesn't have 'standard' and 'deluxe' versions which she's bought) then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
Or you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : 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
If she wants to redownload purchases then what she can redownload for free will show in the Purchased tabs in the iTunes, App Store and iBooks apps on her phone, and the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on her Mac's iTunes

Has a release date been set for an update to iMovie 6?

The application is much faster than my old 3.0.3 version. Unfortunately it won't render. I seem to have the same problem with rendering that a number of folks have described on this board. Everthing turns white after rendering (Ken Burns and transitions)
What has apple's history been on the timing of the inevitable update?
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)
G4 Dual 450 Hz 1 GB memory Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Matt,
They are JPEG. They all were imported into iPhoto from an internal hard drive where I store my photos. I use that hard drive as a backup to my iPhotos.
My guess is I'll have to try one of the work-arounds mention on this board or wait until the new update and hope that works. I am hoping the update is out in weeks versus months.

HT1386 Has this been helpful for anyone? It doesn't work for me.

I've been trying to sync my phone and nothing works since the latest upgrade ... any suggestions/comments/answers?

Any problems/issues/errors? What happens when you try? Give us something to work with lol!

Distributed Audio Processing & Massive G5 Issues

Hi All,
Iv recently purchased Logic studio to run on my Dual 2GHZ G5 with 1gb ram. Logic Studio doesnt seem to like the machine to say the very least. I can have 6 Audio instruments running 4 audio tracks & a few plugs, say 10 & it goes into total shutdown. The CPU meter's off the hook, im getting some sort of digital crackling/distortion & loads of "cannot process audio in time" errors.
Could the issue be that there's only 1 GB of ram? If thats the case, i'll 4 GB's tomorrow. There's still 95GB left on the system drive.
Iv also just purchased a Macbook pro & im trying to set up distributed processing to see if that makes a difference. Iv connected both machines via eithernet, loaded logic onto both machines, launched the nodes & configured the rack view settings to toggle DAP on/off.
When I turn DAP on, I get a delay on the tracks that the other machine is meant to be handling? Has anyone ever had this issue? Its pointless using DAP if there's going to be a noticeable delay.
ANY help with this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Im running 512 atm. Any suggestions as to what I should be running????
512 should be fine - you should be able to get down to 128 really. Is there any improvement at 1024? Can you playback more reliably? At 512 I have nary a glitch.
How much ram are you using?
4GB. More than 1GB will help - but personally I think you have a more fundamental problem. I think you need to sort out the G5 performance issues first before you look at DAP. Your system definitely is under performing.
What interface are you using? Have you tried it with iternal audio? Any change?
Yes the i/o safety buffer is off. Should it be on?
leave it off.
Regards
Stephen

Has the ExtendScript documentation been updated for FrameMaker 11?

I have Technical Communicator Suite 4, and would like to write a simple script to automate the create of HTML Help for a FrameMaker book file.to
(i.e. to automate the process of me opening the book file, and selecting File > Publish)
The Publish command is new for TCS4 / FM11, however, so I don't think it's documented in the FM10 material...
Within my script, I guess I need to know how to select values for the 4 drop-down fields in the Publish dialog? (i.e. Output type, source file, and path to the robohelp templates)

feline,
The scripting capabilities of FM are remarkable. It's possible that that you've found an instance where something is not easily done (or perhaps not possible), but I can assure you that just about anything else is possible. So, I'd hate for you to get a bad taste about FM scripting just due to this one issue.
Jang,
What client are you trying to invoke? Is it the Structure Generator on a single document? The documentation for structuring a single document has been wrong forever, so it will not work as currently advertised. If you have the right syntax, though, it works great. Here's an FDK code snippet for a document conversion that should show what you need, in case this was your issue:
F_Sprintf(tempUChar, "INPUTDOCID %d", docId);
F_ApiCallClient("Structure Generator", (StringT)tempUChar);
F_Sprintf(tempUChar, "RULEDOCID %d", convTableId);
F_ApiCallClient("Structure Generator", (StringT)tempUChar);
F_Sprintf(tempUChar, "OUTPUTDOCNAME %s", tempPath);
F_ApiCallClient("Structure Generator", (StringT)tempUChar);
F_ApiCallClient("Structure Generator", "StructureDoc");
I believe the error in the manual is that is says to call "GenerateDoc" at the end, which is wrong and does nothing.
I remember in the past working with someone trying to structure a book and I'm not sure if we ever got that working. Maybe that was you... sorry if I forgot

If my IPHONE 5 order status has changed from "processing" to "preparing for delivery" is there a chance I will receive it sooner than the 10/5 date that it is scheduled for?

I pre-ordered my iPhone 5 on 9/15 at 4am EST. It said shipping in 2 weeks with an delivery date of 10/5... yadda yadda yadda. This morning my order status showed as 'processing'. This afternoon it changed to 'preparing for delivery'. Is there a chance I will now receive before 10/5? Trying to plan accordingly. Thanks in advance for any info you can give.

I was in the same boat. I ordered @ 5:09AM EST on 9/14 and had the 10/5 delivery date. My status changed from processing to preparing to ship yesterday 9/21. I got an e-mail from Apple @ 4:22AM this morning 9/22 that it has shipped (along with the precious tracking #)! I would expect it would arrive by this Friday 9/28 at the latest.

Has an actual date been released for the iPad 3 Siri, or is it still in the vague season known as "fall"?

I'm looking to buy an iPad, however I am just wondering if there is a set release date for the iPad 3 + Siri. I'd really prefer not to buy an iPad and then find out a week later that there as been a new iPad + Siri release! Thanks.

Apples Software Update process is easy enough to do if you were to buy an iPad with iOS 5.1.1 (current) and upgrade to iOS 6.0 when it is released.
