How can I connect left and right RCA audio jacks to my iMac to record?

I would like to connect my Tascam 8-track digital recorder to the iMac. The Tascam stereo output is L/R RCA jacks. Is there a chord that is Stereo L/R RCA male jacks on one end and a USB or Thunderbolt jack on the other side?
Thanks much,
John

How can I separate Left and right audio channels in labview 8.5 tia sal22

How can I separate Left and right audio channels in labview
8.5 tia sal22
Greetings All
I have a working Labview vi that converts a math formula to an
audio signal. I would like to have the
right and left audio channels playing different math audio signals is this
possible?
Example
Right channel -> plays the audio signal created by a math
formula
Left channel -> plays the audio signal created by another
math formula with adjustable phase control
I’ve included a VI with a working audio and math formula but
I’m not sure how to separate the left and right channels.
I’m using labview 8.5
I looked up a similar question on the
support board and it said” use an instance of the the Sound Output Write that
has a 1D waveform data type input (i.e. Sound Output Write (DBL)). Each
element in the array would correspond to a channel.”
But I’m not exactly sure what he meant. I’m using a formula to generate the wave file

Sorry it took so long to get back. Here's the new VI with it splitting out the left and right channels.
I'm using a Gigaport HD 8 output usb audio device but I'm experience clicks and pops. I increase the buffers
but I still get the clicks and pops. I know gigaport HD can use ASIO drivers which most likely would solve the problem but one needs to code in C for this which I'm not proficient in. Can someone recommend a work around to prevent this clicks and pops, can I somehow change my VI to fix this? Does anyone have a VI that will allow access to the ASIO latency properties?
I'm using labview 8.5
And a gigaport HD which is a USB audio device which outputs 8 analog signals (it is ASIO compatible)

How can I combine Left and Right audio?

Hi,
When I record video, one lapel mic records to the left channel and the other records to the right channel in one audio track. I can't seem to figure out how to combine them within Premiere Pro (I've already attempted searching the forums for more info). I know in Sony Vegas you can right click the single audio track and select "Combine" and it will combine the 2 channels so that when people watch the end product you have both voices coming out of both speakers.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Kelly G.

Hello,
Yes i have the same issue.
I use the duplicate Audio track and fill left and right all the time.
when i am doing Interview videos i usually have one person on channel 1 and the other on channel 2 and it comes out as L and R in Premiere.
Today i was shooting with myself on Channel 2 and a shotgun for some ambient sound on channel 1.
In Vegas or FCP 7 there is a simple effect to drag and drop called " Combine" that nicely combines the L and R channels each into stereo.
I used to use it quite a bit and think it would be a great addition to Premiere Pro.
So i am wondering several years since this was first post if Premiere does in fact now have this option...and where it might be that i over looked it?
If not.....is there an easier way to do this than the fill left and right method?
Thanks so Much!

How can I write left and right in the same line of a richtextbox?

I want to write, in the same line, text with a right aligment and other with left aligment. How can I do it?
thanks

As
Viorel_ says "Perhaps there are other much easier solutions. For example, create two
RichTextBoxes with no borders (if you only need two columns of text)" but the real issue would be saving the info in the RichTextBox's (RTB's) RTF or Text to two different RTF or TextFiles. Although I suppose if it was just going to
a TextFile then you could somehow use a delimited text file so each same line number of each RTB is appended to the same line and delimited. That way you could probably load a split array with each line from the text file splitting on the delimeter per line
and providing RTB1 with index 0 of the split array and RTB2 with index 1 of the split array. I'm not going to try that.
This is some leftover code from a long time ago. It has three RTB's. RTB1 is there I suppose because the thread asking for this code wanted it. RTB2 is borderless as well as RTB3. The Aqua control in the top image below is the Panel used to cover RTB2's
scrollbar. So RTB3's scrollbar is used to scroll both controls.
I forgot to test if I typed past the scroll position in RTB2 if both would scroll as maybe RTB3 would not since it would not have anything to scroll to I suppose.
Maybe this code can help or maybe not. The bottom two images are the app running and displaying nothing scrolled in RTB2 and RTB3 then the scroll used in the bottom image.
Disregard the commented out code in the code below. It was there so I left it there. I suppose you should delete it. Also I didn't set the RTB's so one was left aligned and the other right aligned. I believe the Panel becomes a control in RTB2's controls
when it is moved to cover RTB2's vertical scrollbar but don't remember although that seems the case since both RTB2 and RTB3 are brought to front so if the Panel was not one of RTB2's controls I would think it would be behind RTB2 and RTB2's vertical scrollbar
would display but don't remember now. In fact I don't really remember how that part works. :)

How can I keep left- and right-aligned paragraphs together on the same line?

I am currently trying to typeset a menu. Basically, I want the Dish Title to be left-aligned and the Price right-aligned — but on the same line. I can achieve the effect by typing in a shift+tab after the Dish Title text and then inserting the price, but I would rather have two distinct paragraphs styles, so that I can adjust them globally to see what looks good. I can achieve the effect by adjusting the Price character baseline of the price and moving it up, but then if I need to make any price changes, I find it a pain trying to get the cursor in the right place in situations where a baseline is substantially altered.
Back in the old days (in Ventura!!), I could just remove the line break after the "Dish Title" style and the "Price" would move up to the same line, but I can't seem to be able to do this in CS6.
Any ideas?

Please show some examples. It's easier to help you.
If I understand right, use a paragraph style with a right aligned tab and nested styles and grep styles. That's extremly flexible.
Have fun

Can articles swipe left and right?

Is it possible to have articles swipe left and right instead of just up and down? From what I can see at the moment you swipe up and down in an article (multiple pages of course) and swipe left and right to change articles. I am trying to publish a gardening magazine and it has many 2 page images. When swiping and down they flow poorly.

Set them to horizontal swipe only in the article properties.

Can i switch left and right outp

ok, i found 4 old speakers in my basement, and decided to make my closet into a computer room with extreme surround sound. I got my stereo system as well, and made myself a nice little 4.0 setup. (i only found one stereo in my basement, so the front channel has 4 speakers, and the back has the other 2). I bought a sound blaster audigy, and it sounded great.
However, i then noticed my two old desktop speakers, and they still worked great. So, i decided to make a 6.0 setup. However, my closet is really long, and there was no place in the back for a speaker. So, to make a long troubleshoot short, i soldered the lefft speaker wire to an extremely long audio cord and taped the speaker (using monstrous amounts of duct tape) to the wall above the doorframe.
I got it all hooked up, with those 2 new speakers being front center and rear center. I booted up and... ****** BACKWARDS!!!!! The rear center is in the front center spot and vice versa. I was wondering if there was any way to tweak the settings so that you could switch the speaker assignments. Basically, i need to switch the left and right output on only one of three output channels. (im usin the fourth for a mike)
Please tell me anything you know, even if its probably not true or if its risky, i cant switch the speakers because i cant solder the 2-channel output cord to make it longer, and it would kill the wal to rip off all that tape. Thanx.

Try Audio MIDI Setup (Utilities folder. Set "Properties For" to Line Output and click "Configure Speakers".
If that doesn't work, try using Audio Hijack Pro
<http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/>
It has a "Swap Channels" effect. It is not free, but the free trial should work fine if you are not recording.

How do i isolate Left and right sound on X-Fi ca

Hey all,
Wonder if anyone knows how to turn off left channel sound and vice versa. I play alot of Karaoke VCDs and they usually have left channel as music and right channel as music with vocal but i can't find the option to turn off either left or right.
I usually do this by using the L/R slider in wondows mixer but when i do this with the X-Fi card the left channel (music only) seems to be a mix of L&R resulting in hearing the vocal. Strangly this doesn't happen when playing in Power DVD the slider method works fine, but with apps like real player, media player, media source etc. the problem presists.
Any Ideas? Appriciate any help ^.^
(Running X-Fi Platinum with Logitech Z5500 5.)

Jason,
I've tried turning off cmss but it still doesn't do the job. I find it strange that there is no problem with Power DVD but with other applications. Does this mean it might be a application problem?
Mmm...running out of ideas....

How can I connect HDTV and LCD monitor to PC using both -as a double monitor.

I recently purchased HP Pavilion PC a6600f with HP w1707 monitor. I also purchased a DVI to HDMI cable to hook PC to Samsung HDTV. I can use the VGA cable to hook to the monitor and the DVI to HDMI cable to hook to the HDTV but have to unplug one to use the other. Is there any way to configure Windows Vista Home Premium to show on both screens at same time or at least be able to switch between the two without having to unplug one and restart computer?
This question was solved.

I believe you have to press Source or the Mode button to switch between video inputs on your monitor.

How can I connect an external monitor to the new 27 inch iMac?

I have an old PC monitor that I want to connect to my new 27 inch iMac, it's the latest edition, the one that doesn't have any mini display ports.
All I have are four USB 2.0 ports and two Thunderbolt ports. No mini display port of any kind. So is there an adapter for me? My old monitor can use either VGA or HDMI and I'm not really fussed which one I use. A link would be most helpful, surley that are more people with the same problem.

If the monitor supports vga and hdmi you probably what to use the digital hdmi over the analog vga. You need a mini-displayport to HDMI adapter. For this application mini-displayport will work when plugged into a thunderbolt connection (TB is sort of a superset of mini-displayport, the plugs and sockets are physically compatible).
Here's examples of each kind of adapter:
Mini DisplayPort | Thunderbolt® to HDMI® Adapter w/ Audio Support
Mini DisplayPort | Thunderbolt to VGA Adapter

How Can i connect using Thunderbolt a Macbook Pro with the New iMac

I bought the new Macbook Pro with Thunderbolt and instead of buying a new external monitor, i am thinking that the new iMac with Thunderbolt is a great idea.
Is there a cable to connect the Macbook Pro and use as iMac as external monitor, using Thunderbolt.
thanks

I understood your question perfectly and the answer is absolutely yes. When you change the iMac into target display mode you underlying operating system continues to run all existing applications. For example in my case if I finished editing some video and am about to enter a lengthy render process or something which may draw lots of resources like hand real, I set it to start on the iMac and then switch it to target display mode to use it as a monitor with my MacBook air in the meantime.
Only one small caveat in your case though. Since the target display mode is a feature of OSX (eg the OS interprets the special key stroke and changes the iMac into target display mode) you should make sure Lion server supports the target display mode feature. I don't see a reason why it wouldn't but that's the only thing currently crossing my mind. Keep in mind the compatibilities between ports as noted in my blog. If any of your machines have mini display port and you intend to connect the new iMac in target display mode you will run into issues. In that special scenario, I recommend buying a refurb iMac from 2010 which urtilize the displayport allowing you to use it as a display for all your macs -- those with thunderbolt as well as those with displayport. If you have thunderbolts then definitely go with the thunderbolt iMac.

Left and right bracket

Hi, I know how you obtain the left and right bracket on the keyboard of my Imac Intel:
shift command and ) = ]
shift command and ( = [
but I don't know how to get the left and right bracket WITH ONE KEYSTROKE.
And that's something I need to know to configer my Wacom Intuos 4 Tablet.
Can anyone help for this?
Thanks in advance and kind regards

I use a Belgian keyboard-setting on an Imac-Intel Osx 10.6.7

Resolving keyboard mapping variations is usually a fairly easy matter of trial and error.
The square parantheses used for trim operations are directly to the right of the P key on a US/English keyboard. On a Norwegian keyboard, directly to the right of the P is the Å key. Does it perform the same function as the [ left parantheses?
Alternately, square parantheses on the Norwegian keyboard are generated with Alt Gr-8 and Alt Gr-9. Do they work?
