Help! Audio for 16mm project, material to FCP and back again to 16mm
I am getting ready to send an AIFF file of the audio I created on FCP, working with video that was created from a 16mm to video transfer at my lab. They tell me the transfer was a non-drop frame transfer. The lab made a digital file from the transfer, which I imported into a FCP project with 23.98 sequence settings.
I want to compare the frame length of my WP to that of my video file so that I can determine how the audio house who will be transferring the AIFF to mag needs to compensate, and I am confused about how to measure the video file's frame length. If the sequence settings are at 23.98 fps, and the project runs from 1:00:05;12 to 1:11:49;08, to determine the frame length should I be assuming there are 24 frames per second or 30?
I don't have access anymore to the FCP so I can't check but a basic question is: if the sequence setting are set to 23.98fps, does that mean the timeline only has 24fps? When I convert at 30fps, my video file is 22 frames longer than my WP...
Thanks for any advice and questions--that all may be explained poorly...
When your project and sequence settings are at 23.98, it is for two main reasons. 1. ou are working with video footage shot at 23.98 and 2. you are working with film (24 fps), which was ultimately telecined to video which runs at 23.98. This is mainly implimented because you plan on either going back to a higher resolution "online" which you will be synching up the timecode with a better quality copy of the tape at a coloring house, or you will be using the edl from the 23.98 sequence to give to a negative cutter, so they can cut the negative correctly according to the timecode and how it links with the keycode.
I assume you are making a final product that will be on celuloid- an actual film print, not a video copy. is this correct?
Please clarify the following: did you shoot on film, get a telecine to a beta or dvcam, do you have a timecode burn-in on the tape and when you captured the clips into final cut, did you utilize Cinema Tools?
If you did run your clips through cinema tools, did you do it correctly (starting the process on the "aa" frame).
Is your project set to 23.98 or just your sequence? when you place captured clips onto the timeline do they have to be rendered? Is this a sync project or was it shot MOS?
And lastly, as I previously asked, are you sending all of your negative, the edl from FCP and the aiff to a negative cutter?

Can someone please help with my issue listed - My ipod 4G wont go past the apple logo when I turn it on - it will stay on the apple logo for few min, then blanks out and back to the apple logo. Tried reset option/troubleshoot several times. Also wont show up on computer at all when I plug in to USB.
Any tips are very much appreciated.Place the iPod Touch into DFU mode. This will be similar to what the factory would do to install the iOS onto new iOS devices.
Placing it into DFU mode will allow you to "format" and install the current iOS for that device.
To place your iOS device into DFU mode.
First connect you iOS device to you computer.
Open iTunes if not already open
Now turn off your iOS device using the power swipe.
Press the home and sleep button on your iOS device for 10 seconds.
Release the sleep button but carry on holding down the home button. For another 10 seconds.
Your iOS device should now be on DFU. Click on restore and iTunes will download the latest iOS for your device.
Hopefully that sorts it if not, you will have to go to a service centre or call Apple Care up and get them to collect it and repair it. (replace it) Or go into an Apple Store. -

Help with Audio for Premiere Project
Working on a lengthy project and need some help with audio which is not my specialty!
I am recording using a Sony EX1r and a wireless lav mic, OK. Here is what is happening.
When I import the clip into project I get Audio from the left speaker. If I burn a DVD and playback on home player with surround sound, I get audio out of just the left speaker which makes sense. SO I go to Premier and use "Fill Left" which fixes the audio on my computer and get sound from left and right speakers. The odd thing is that when I play this version back from DVD on the surround sound system, the audio now only comes from the CENTER speaker. I dont get anything out of left OR the right speaker so it sounds hollow.
I am sure I am missing something obvious so please be kind.
Is there an easy way to get my audio to come out of Left, Center, and Right speakers (and rear for that matter) ???
Thank you
TedBill,
The DVD player is a Sony BluRay and the receiver is an Onkyo AV receiver HT-R380.
My thinking is that it is something that I am doing wrong inside Premiere vs something that the DVD player or receiver is doing. My final product will need to play on a variety of DVD players so I need to get it right.
It just seems odd that my default output DVD provides sound to the left speaker but then removes it when I fill Left.
Am I setting up my audio tracks wrong? Or should I being doing something with a 5.1 track???
Thanks

Hello.
I have my project to be done by Monday.
I typed some code, but have no idea what to do anymore. No clue...
The following is the project overview etc.
Overview
In a single source file named App.java, define an Employee class to encapsulate employee data and an App class defining an applet to maintain a collection of Employee objects.
Employee Class
Define a small, non-public class named Employee that encapsulates private instance variables for name (String) and pay rate (double). The class needs a single constructor to instantiate an Employee object with values received for both instance variables. It also needs minimal set() and get() methods (such as setName(), getPayRate(), etc.) that allow a class client to store and retrieve the value of each instance variable. Do not be concerned with editing the data within this class. It is used only to support the testing of your applet.
Code this class inside your App.java source file but after the definition of the App class. Be sure to omit the specification of public in the class header (because Java only allows one public class per source file).
App class
This public class will define the processing of your applet. Its required features are as follows:
Input Components:
Name (a TextField). For entering or displaying an employee's name.
Pay rate (a TextField). For entering or displaying an employee's pay rate. When used for input, the value must be edited (see the processing notes below). If the value is invalid, display an appropriate error message.
First (a button). When clicked, triggers the display of the name and pay rate of the first employee in the collection. If the collection is empty, display an appropriate message.
Next (a button). When clicked, triggers the display of the name and pay rate of the next employee in the collection. If there are no more objects in the collection, display an appropriate message.
Find (a button). When clicked, triggers the display of the name and pay rate of the employee whose name currently appears in the name text field. If the requested employee doesn't exist, display an appropriate error message.
Add (a button). When clicked, triggers the construction of an Employee object having the currently displayed name and pay rate and the addition of the object to the collection. Display appropriate error messages if input data is missing or incorrect or if the employee already exists within the collection.
Delete (a button). When clicked, triggers the deletion of the Employee object having the currently displayed name from the collection. If the specified employee doesn't exist, display an appropriate error message.
Output components:
Number of employees (a Label). For displaying how many Employee objects are currently within the collection. This must be changed as employees are added or deleted from the collection.
Message area (a TextArea). For displaying messages.
Processing notes:
The applet must get the value of an HTML parameter named "maxRate". Convert the associated value string to a double and use it to edit a pay rate entered by the user. It represents the maximum allowable pay rate for an employee. If an attempt is made to enter a larger pay rate, display an appropriate error message.
Use GridBagLayout for the applet's components. The arrangement of components is up to you.
Use a SortedMap implemented as a TreeMap for the collection. It is to be maintained in ascending order based upon employee name.
When the user moves the mouse to touch one of the buttons, its color or font should change. When the mouse exits the button, its color or font should return to normal.
The following is the code I have so far

I don't know where to put Employee class.
I don't know what to do anymore...
I'm soooooooooooooo stuck and just want to cry...
Please give me any suggestion/help so that I could move on.
Thank you so much in advanceStep 1 (analying your specs).
In a single source file named App.java, define an Employee class to encapsulate employee data and an App class defining an applet to maintain a collection of Employee objects.
You are given lots of usefule information.
Name of the primary (source) class to create App
Primary class (source) will include an employee class.
The need to maintain a collection (list) of employee classes.
first thing i do is
public class App {
Vector myEmps = new Vector();// will hold the employee objects;
Employee emp; // single instance of an employee object
App() {
// this is how we add employee objects to the list
// in this case the list is a vector.
myEmps.add(new Employee("sean",1,80000.50));
myEmps.add(new Employee("davey",1,70000.25));
myEmps.add(new Employee("harry",1,90000.15));
class Employee {
// define employee data as variables
String name;
int ID;
double payRate;
Employee(String n, int ID, double pr) {
this.name = n;
this.ID = ID;
this.payRate = pr;
public void setName(String n) { // can set/change emps name
name = n;
public void setPayRate(double pr) { // can set/change payRate
payRate = pr;
}this is just a start -
Audio exporting problems: from FCP to protool/STP and back again

Final Cut Pro sound export for mastering.....sync problem
Hey,
I'm editing a 30 minute film and I have done most of the sound edit in FCP and Soundtrack pro and I want to now bring all the sound into pro tools to master the sound but every time i export sound into pro tools it seems to stretch by two or three seconds.
I have tried OMF, AIFF, XML, and Quicktime audio file sut to no avail!!!!
There are 50 tracks in the file so it is quiet large. It's not that there are handles of the file also as when I sync the file with the audio track with the video it syncs in one place but it is still out of sync in another.........It's as if the audio has been stretched!?!
If anyone has any advice it'd be much appreciated
KeithCheck the timecode rate and sync options in Protools. It sounds like a timecode or samplerate mismatch.
Especially note that 23.976fps OMFs from FCP (probably STP as well) show up in Protools as 24fps sessions. Change the PTs timecode to 23.976 to realign. -
Report for MM for seeing the material old price and new price
Hello friends,
For the ROH material we are maintained the Moving average price. So that material is calculated the average price of that material,
Know My clint wants old price of that material i.e. one year before And
he wants comparison report for old price and new price of the all raw materials
is there any reports are there such kind.

Sequence Settings FCP to Color and back again
Sorry in advance if i missed the answer to this when previously searching the forum.
Ok, I have a sequence in FCP. I duplicate it removing any problematic effects and place it all on one time line. I send the sequence to Color. In the settings I notice that the quick time settings are a different ratio to my fcp settings. I change them to 1440 x 1080 (same as FCP). When I send the rendered graded sequence back to FCP the sequence changes to a different frame size?
I can go into sequence settings in FCP and change them but is there a way of keeping the same aspect ratio / pixel ratio and dimensions between the 2 applications.
It feels like I have missed a step when setting the applications up but I can't find where.
Any help will be much appreciatedmorphretouch,
Since you are working w/an interlaced format you should be aware of a couple of bugs in Color that will cause the program to mess up your field order. The first bug is using certain nodes in the Color FX room and the second bug is caused by resizing/reframing in the Geometry room (this includes resizes that are done in FCP as that information is carried over into Color). Even if you resize something in Color and then hit the "reset" button the bug will still happen because Color still thinks you resized the image (the border of the frame in the Geometry room will be red instead of white).
More details about the Color FX bug can be found here:
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/using_color_fxnode.html
A work around for the Geometry room bug can be found here:
http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/223/7110
The work around is in a post by Saul Budd, about half down the page, and starts with the line "I've just had a "D'oh!" moment ..."

Sending audio from logic to external hardware effects, and back into Logic
Hi,
I am currently trying to send audio from Logic to external hardware effects and then record this back into Logic.
My audio interface is a Edirol UA-25 which has only two outputs '1 and 2'.
I understand that I could create an 'aggregate device' which would create two more ins + outs being '3 & 4'.
I also understand that would need to use the Logic I/O plug in configuring this routing.
When treating the audio via the external hardware I particularly only want to hear the audio being processed and not the original 'uneffected' signal.
Can someone please explain if I am able to do all of this with just the UA-25, and if so, then how.
Cheers,
Mr RockYou connect output 1 of your interface to your active speaker.
You connect output 2 of your interface to the input of your external effect.
You connect the output of your external effect to input 2 of your interface.
You route your track in Logic to output 2.
You create a new track.
You route this new track to output 1 and output 1 only.
You choose input 2 as the source for this track.
You arm the track.
You hit Record.
You hit Stop some time later.

did not explain very well in above question, had to do an entire over dub for a film that we had edited in avid. to make the process quicker i decided to do the over dub using sound track pro. i placed a copy of the film that had being edit in avid as a copy of the time line in stp as a reference . competed the over dub and exported it as a wave audio file, with the setting of 48khz sample rate 16 bit rate. However when i place it back into the avid project it was totally out of snyc.have tried it in different software e.g. final cut, cubase but it is all ways goes out of snyc. please help as i am new to stp and need to get project handed in
