HELP! Loopable audio clip "transpose" commands are inactive

I have created an .aif audio loop with the Apple Loops Utility, but when I try to transpose it the "transpose" window components remain grey.
Does anyone know how to turn the loop transposable?
Thank you!

Agreed, the term 'nudge' is technically incorrect and therefore confusing.
Dictionary.com's definition of nudge:
verb (used with object)
1. to push slightly or gently, especially with the elbow, to get someone's attention, prod someone into action, etc.
So to 'nudge' a clip up would be to move it up just 'slightly', not all the way up to the next track. 'Move to Higher/Lower Track' makes a lot more sense.
Jim, you say 'That is the way it should work'. If that's the way that works best for your workflow, great! For me, the way it should work is the way described in my FR. That's why I'm such a big proponent of Adobe giving us choices to decide what works best for our own workflows, so we can all be happy.
Please feel free to forward this FR to Adobe, if for nothing else, so that clips move up/down in the relative, not absolute sense as you aptly point out.

IMovie moving audio clips when transitions are added

iMovie moving audio clips when transitions are addedI have some video clips that need simple fades to black added at the end. However, whenever I add the fade out transition, iMovie does something insane. Instead of the last two seconds of video fading to black and the last two seconds of audio fading out, it seems that a random two seconds of audio from elsewhere in the clip is tacked onto the end and faded. This problem is nuts and I am having no luck finding a solution. Does anyone have one? This has happened with other transitions, but I’d settle for just getting a fade to black to work properly. Is this only a problem with Intel machines?

The problem that you describe has come up frequently on this forum. There are lots of things people have tried, but no solution has been found, other than the workaround of extracting the audio, as Klaus 1 mentions, and manually adjusting the fade out. Some feel that it is an intel machine problem, but that is not clear.
For more information on this issue, try using the search function of this forum, typing in "audio echo with transitions", or some other appropriate search words. You might find of interest the information contained in the following post:

Help with audio clipping

Hi,
I'm very unfamiliar with the audio filters in FCP. I recorded a vioce using a mic and the voiceover tool, however some of my words get 'clipped' and it makes a annoying tick noice. Which filter and what setting are best used to eliminate that?
Thanks!!

The best remedy for clipping audio is re-recording at the proper levels. Once audio is clipped, its usually toast.

Help Syncing audio clips from a double camra system

I am editing a short film in which everything was shot with 2 HVX cameras. I imported all the footage and labeled it with no problem.
Is it possible to link audio from other clips to different piece of video. What is the most efficient way of doing this?

the only way Ican think of doing this is kin dof dirty but it would be to create seperate movie files created from sequences where you would frankenstien the media how you want it. Really though, the best way of handling multi camera sync issue without using multiclip is to put the clips on a timeline and match them vertically.
Find a sync point like a sharp sound or video that can be distinguished between the two cameras and do your back and forth cutting that way.
Short answer, no there is no way of 'linking' audio from one source to another without creating it as it's own movie file.

Some audio clips in timeline are super quiet

I've had this issue many times before, in the past I've just thrown my hands up in the air and started again, but this is starting to become a very big issue for me.
Some clips (when I play the timeline) are super quiet (maxing out around -48dB) yet when I play the same clip in the source monitor it plays properly (maxing out around -6dB). The clip has no filters, the gain is set to 0dB and volume is set to 0dB.
Below I have two clips, both shot on the same camera, same setup within minutes of each other. Both with 0dB Gain and 0dB Volume
The one on the left is barely audible, where the one on the right is ridiculously loud.
However, when I nest the clip on the left and open the nested clip, the volume is good again, however the volume of the nested clip in the original timeline is still unuseable. But if i try and nest out both clips into a new timeline, the issue persists into the new timeline.
I've deleted all the files on my scratch drive, and I still have the issue.

The clip files are way too large for me to be able to upload them. And I don't think it has anything to do with the files themselves as the same clip will behave in some timelines but not others.
I did a quick screen capture so you can see the levels etc.
I start by playing the clips in the original timeline and I get no volume I then nest them, and go into the nested clip... and suddenly I have volume (as hideous as it is, but this is just an example). So same clips same settings, different results.
BTW the two clips here are different from the previous clips. I started the previous timeline again from scratch and it worked for a while, then my clips just started randomly losing volume again.

Aperture claims it can trim audio clips, but I can't find the controls!

I can't find the audio trim clips editor that the help menu claims is part of Aperture.
does anyone know how to do it? I can't get mine to work. Am I doing it wrong?

The trim button is only available, if you view your Audio in the Viewer, not when you are editing a slideshow, as the paragraph in the manual says, that Frank pointed to - I think you may be referring to this paragraph of the help:
Editing Audio Clips in the Viewer
But while you are editing a slideshow the trim button is not available, and you can only trim the end of the clip and shorten it this way.
You will have to trim the audio you have imported to Aperture in the Viewer, befor using it with your slideshow, or to set the start time in iTunes, if you are using audio from your iTunes library - in iTunes you can set the start time in the song Info Panel - in the "Options" tab.

HT2905 My itunes looks nothing like the examples in this tutorial. I do not have "display exact duplicates" or "date added". Can someone please help me remove duplicate songs? Also, I downloaded two audio books and they are showing up in my song list.

My itunes looks nothing like the examples in this tutorial. I do not have "display exact duplicates" or "date added". Can someone please help me remove duplicate songs? Also, I downloaded two audio books and they are showing up in my song list. Why???

'Show duplicates' is now under the 'View' menu. To see the 'Date added' column go to 'View options' from the 'View' menu and check it in the section under 'Stats'.
Click an audiobook once to select it and hit command-i (Mac) or control-i (Windows). Go to the 'Options' tab and set 'Media Kind' to 'Audiobook'.

I am trying to use the auto audio-sync feature. When I select the video and audio clip to be synced FCPX says its syncing them and then once finished (at 100%) no compound clip is created and the video and audio file do not sync. Any help is appreciated.

Hi
In iMovie'11 (version 9.0.x)
on top menu row - Apple/iMovie/File/Edit/Cut (Can vary dep. on language - in Swedish Apple/iMovie/Arkiv/Redigera/Klipp . . . )
down Cut menu - Slow playback/Raspid Playback/Re-play in Slow Motion and onvards
Here one can select the Pre-Set speeds
Are you familiar with getting 'inspector' to run?
No - but I guess that Double Click on clip/sequense or ctrl-Click on it might open it.

Help with 2 buttons, 2 animations, and 2 audio clips

Hey everyone,
I'm coming to Edge Animate from After Effects so bear with me here... I'm helping out on a DPS project for a friend and this has me stumped.
I have an Animate project with 2 animations, 2 audio clips and 2 buttons. Let's call them Animation1, Audio1, and Button1. Animation2, Audio2, and Button2. I want to have the composition load and wait for the user to click a button, the easy part. Now I want to have Animation1 play with Audio1 when the user clicks on Button1 but I don't want any of the other elements (Animation2 etc) to play or be visible. Then vice-versa when the user clicks Button2. I've been able to get the Button1 elements to work but then I can still see Button2's elements. The animations are sync'd to the audio files so they need to play in time with each other. I've searched tutorials on the web but I'm probably not looking for the right thing.
Any help is much appreciated.

resdesign,
The examples you sent got me up and going.
I added an action on each button so when the user clicks one the other gets hidden. But after the audio clip linked to the button pressed plays the hidden button remains hidden. Say I click on button1 and audio1 plays, at the end of the clip button2 is still hidden. I've tried a couple different ways to show both buttons again but with no luck. Any thoughts? I really appreciate your help BTW.

PLEASE NEED HELP! CAN'T COMBINE AUDIO CLIPS AS ONE FULL CLIP!

I am getting very frustrated! I have split two audio clips and want to join them together to create one audio clip (the audio is of the same song, just split) There is other audio before the clip that I split that I got rid of, so now I just have the one song as a full song combined together in imovie 6, but when I take it out of imovie it plays everything! including what I deleted!
so, is there a way I can transfer what I have in imovie 6 (which are two .wav files) and import it into itunes as an mp3 file?

I happened to come across this discussion in another forum. Maybe it would help you. Check it out:

Can't get my audio clip to work in Keynote except in edit mode. I've followed Help instructions to the letter. Any suggestions?

Can't get my audio clip to work in Keynote except in edit mode. I've followed Help instructions to the letter. Any suggestions?

Hi Gary - thanks so much for your help. I'd already done that, but finally stumbled across the answer for my situation. I'm new to iMac and this is the first time I used Keynote, so maybe this info will help someone else along the way - I still haven't found this in any of the Keynote documentation or forums I've read.
My slides were all set up with at least one text box in which the text was animated. The sound was the last thing I added to each slide, exactly following the info in Keynote Help re: adding audio. The audio would work when I tested it in Inspector mode, and also if I switched to soundtrack instead. But not if sound was added to each individual slide. Hmmm. After I submitted the question above, I was running through the (auto) slide show one final time to check text, animation, etc. when I noticed that on just one single slide the sound effect came through, but at the very tail end of the slide. Hmm again. Why?
Through trial & error, the answer was in the animation section - not very intuitive re: audio. The steps to correct the issue were: 1) click on the sound icon embedded in each slide, 2) click on the animation tab in Inspector. 3) There's a drop-down menu there that allows you to reposition the audio clip to the #1 spot (if it was added after other "animation"). This allows the sound to begin before the text animation begins on each slide. Before doing this, I guess the sound was in there but the slides were transitioning before it had a chance to play.
Since this is the first time I've used Keynote and it's the most recent version, I'm not sure if this is a new feature to allow users to choose where within a slide to play a sound effect, but I'm guessing that might be why was unable to find any info on how to solve it. Hopefully this will help others who get stumped.
Thanks again for jumping in to help! I really appreciate it.

TS3391 iMovie 11 is not working. I try to open it and it says it is generating thumbnails for one of my previous projects. All the commands are gray. I have to force it to quit. I just want to capture clips to start a new project.

iMovie 11 is not working. I try to open it and it says it is generating thumbnails for one of my previous projects. All the commands are gray. I have to force it to quit. I just want to capture clips to start a new project. I googled the problem and there were discussions about deleting files in various folders and renaming clip extensions. I don't like the solutions I saw there and I am not sure they will work.

Nobody replied so I called Apple. They seemed to think they could fix the problem but I had to agree to pay about $20 first. I told them to put it down as a complaint. I only want to use the software I bought. I can't see that it is my fault it is malfunctioning. I guess I will have to pay. It doesn't seem right.

HELP! Creating MP3 Audio Clip from iTunes to publish in iWeb

I had successfully been able to publish in iWeb MP3 audio clips.Two of 4 MP3 audio clips that I had published and uploaded to the internet and were successfully mounted on the website for a year, suddenly would not function on the internet [I checked it out on both Safari and IE browsers — not a browser issue].
I proceeded to troubleshoot the issue in iWeb to pursue the following considerations:
Was the website requiring more webspace because I tried the MP3 clip on another website I have constructed that is far below its capacity. Same results. The clip would not publish in iWeb.
I reloaded the original song in iTunes, followed the instructions "How to convert a song to a different file format".

Hello, again, Old Toad,
Here is the webpage weblink that has the MP3 audio clip:
http://users.xplornet.com/~gayda/Dance_in_Liturgy.html
BUT! AND, IT'S A HUGE BUT! In the iWeb publishing screen, the MP3 player has a '?' under the image.
However, upon uploading the site, the MP3 player is functioning! And, plays perfectly well. Go figure?
I cannot discern how or why this occurred after many attempts prior to my contacting you, the player in iWeb publishing mode was in a 'non-function' state. However, in desperation to have the player functional, I gave it another go round, and VOILA!, it uploaded successfully. It's a mystery to me.
What I am going attempt to do for the other website that originally had the two players, is upload it even though iWeb shows they are not published and see what happens.
It may be a website issue after all rather than the 'MP3 player'. That being the case, I will contact the ISP Domain Host and arrange for more space for this particular site.
The website that successfully uploaded the player is very small. The other one is a huge. It may be a case scenario that the latter is on overload.
Back to you later to see what happens next and verify the status quo for the original site the players were loaded.

Udio to my clip. When I bring it over it highlights the entire clip as opposed to adding it above or below. Then I can't edit the audio clip. HELP!!

Trying to add audio to my clip. When I bring it over it highlights the entire clip as opposed to adding it above or below. Then I can't edit the audio clip. HELP!!

Just discovered this nifty little bug myself today. Boy, Leopard is really bug city, I'm definitely regretting the upgrade. I was glad to find the 'show in mailbox' trick, although then once I went to re-send the message, it duplicated it for some reason and sent it twice, so now my business contact thinks I'm a moron because I sent him this super large attachment TWICE thanks to moronic Mail.app.
Another interesting thing though, is that after finding the email via 'show in mailbox' and opening it, it actually displayed the MP3 attachment as the old Tiger quicktime player (w/progress bar) as opposed to when I first composed the message and it would only display it as an icon. I thought they had just removed that feature for some reason, but nope! Another bug!

Cant move audio clips around in the timeline? Help?

When my clips are in the timeline in iMovie 11, after a few times of moving them around, it suddenly stops allowing me to move the clips around anymore. Any Ideas?

Well basically, I will import a .mp4 video file into the timeline and then I will import an audio file in from itunes. After a couple of trys to sync the imported audio file and the video up correctly, it just decides to not let me move the imported audio clip around anymore in the timeline. Any ideas? and thanks for the responce.
