How do I time slip regions in the autopunch tracks

Hi, and thanks for reading.
I've been a ProTools user for more than a decade, and just recorded my first session in Logic Pro in the weekend.
I've come unstuck with two things...
My artist had trouble with a particular chord, and wanted to record it once and then for me to paste it over each occurrence. Logic handles drop-ins, or punch-ins quite differently to ProTools - I quite like the way it creates a new ghost-track under the main audio and allows you to set what portion of the punched region you want. However, I'm darned if I could figure out how to copy that region and paste it in a new punch-track and then time slip my paste to exactly the right spot. I tried dragging out of the bin, and got a region in place, but not exactly bang-on, and then I found that no matter which way I held my tongue and clicked and dragged, I couldn't move that region left nor right to the right timing.
I suspect my approach is all wrong, and I'm wondering if some kind soul could point me to the right way to do this. I've read the manual, and also googled it, and searched this forum, and I can't find the answer.
I also have a MIDI/sustain-sticking-on question if anyone's up for it...?
Many thanks!

To what do you have the Snap value set? You should set it at least to ticks . Then zoom in horizontally to place your region tick-accurate.

Sure, shoot!

  • How to apply transitions between clips in the same track?

    Hey guys,
    I'm in Uni on Final Cut Pro 5 and all the videos and discussions tell of how to apply transitions between clips in the same track.
    I like to have my clips on different tracks so that I can overlap them at specific points but I don't know how to do this?
    If I have track one. . .which ends. . .and have track 2 beginning below that (and have it overlapped for a few seconds) I don't know how to enable the transition at the point where track 2 begins.
    Can anyone help?

    Yep I understand that.
    Let's say I overlap track 2 as I don't like the beginning of it. . .so I want the transition from the end of track one to track two to occur in the middle of track 2 - should I just trim the track to the point I want the transition to occur as opposed to have it overlapping?

  • How to add time informatio​n to the first column of spreadshee​t file?

    hi all.
    how to add time information to the first column of spreadsheet file?illustrated in the figure below。
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You need to take the time data and convert it to double.  But Excel data is based on days since 1/1/1900 while LabVIEW data is based on seconds since 1/1/1904.
    Take a look at this thread for an example I posted on how to make the conversion.
    One other possibility is to convert your numeric data to a string, and build on an array of time that is also a string version of the timestamp.  Then write your 2-D string array to the Write to Spreadsheet file.

  • How do you save sample regions in the EXS24 instrument editor?

    Hi There, I don't if my memory has failed me or something was changed in Logic pro 9 but I can't get a EXS24 instrument to save the sample region sections I set?? I open EXS24 click on edit, click on load zone, load a sample, click on edit in sample editor, set the region and then the new region doesn't set inside the EXS24 sample editor window? Tried saving the instrument, but it doesn't up date the selection? It just keeps the entire waveform as the sample? What am I doing wrong here? In the past this was really simple, you just moved the region on the sample area you want and the sample begin and end setting automatically update inside the EXS24 instrument editor window and then you just saved the instrument and each piece of the audio file as and how you set it was then on your keyboard ready to be used. Can anyone help me out here?
    Thanks

    Got it to work, seems I had to resave the audio file again... weird glitch...

  • Recording more than one audio region on the same track

    When I record my audio, i set up one track, with loads of plugins to record my main vocals on. If i want more than one vocal sample to play together with the same eq, ill put them both on the same track but Logic wont allow this and will play the latest entering region and suddenly cut off the other one. Can anyone provide me with a solution as to how to deal with this? Thanks

    copy your performance to a new audio track
    in the channel strip of the original, you can copy the channel strip settings from the pull down menu and paste them into the new tracks channel strip

  • How do I keep a record of the last track played in an album?

    I have a lot of albums which have many completely individual pieces of music. For example Chopin ballades. I may only listen to a single track and not return to that album for several months. Is there a way to record the last track played in an album that show up next time the album is open? I'm thinking of something like the little blue arrow that shows which track is now playing.

    For the Last Played column to make any sense, you need to click on the Last Played title itself, so that an arrow appears in the title, pointing down. If it points up, simply click on it a second time and it will point down. This puts everything in "last played" order, with the most recent played at the top of the list.
    You cannot see the Last Played information on your iPhone, but a Smart Playlist may help. In this respect, an iPhone is just like an iPod Touch, and almost the same as an iPod Classic.
    To create your style of Smart Playlist in iTunes (which is then Synced to your iPhone), make a note of the following:
         A.  Album name (copy it, ready to paste into step 4, below.)
         B.  The number of "plays" times you're going to set. For example, if most tracks have been played twice, and some only once, and you want to begin by playing only the tracks that have been played once, then choose "2". (It will make sense, in steps 7 & 8.)
    Now perform the following steps:
    Click on File/New Smart Playlist (on the top menu bar)
    In the dialogue box that appears, change "Artist" to Album (from the drop-down menu)
    Change "contains" to is (from the drop-down menu)
    In the empty box, type (or paste) in the name of the album (it must be exactly the same, no errors. That's why I suggested copy-and-paste.)
    Click on the + symbol at the end of the current line (this creates a new line)
    Change "Artist" to Plays (from the drop-down menu)
    Change "is" to is less than (from the drop-down menu)
    In the third field, which probably has a 0 in it, replace the zero with 2 (the number you decided in the preparation step B, above)
    Leave all the other boxes and fields as they are. (You may notice that the very first one at the top, has changed. This is normal, it now reads "match all the following rules".)
    Click on OK.
    The Smart Playlist should be automatically given the name of the "album name" field from line 1. You can change it if you wish, to whatever you prefer. It will contain only the tracks from your chosen album that have been played less than twice.
    If the Playlist is not in track order, simply add the Track No. column to this Playlist and click on the title bar (as before) to make "track no." the decider. Then Sync your iPhone to iTunes.
    Here's a list I prepapred. Notice only the eight songs that have been played less than four times, are shown. The other eight songs have all been played at least four times:
    Notice too, that my track order is correct, and that the priority column is the "number" column on the left.
    Finally; when the list empties out because all tracks have been played three times, simply edit the Smart Playlist to is less than "3".

  • How to create many clip region in the same time?

    I want to create JIGSAW game?
    There are 9 clip in display.
    When player press any number, that number will appear.

    A very short look in the MIDP API docs (Graphics.class) and there would be the solution:
    "There is a single clip per Graphics object. The only pixels modified by graphics operations are those that lie within the clip. Pixels outside the clip are not modified by any graphics operations. "

    Hi unnamed,
    Suppose you have an id that identifies your record.
    Go to Report definiton, tab report attirbutes.
    Select the id of your record.

  • How to use time machine to replace the current iMovie for one a few weeks ago?

    I have a movie in iMovie that somehow became unusable.  The size says it is 10GB when it should only be about 1GB.  I have been to the Genius Bar for a total of 4 hours and the only solution we can find is to REMAKE the entire movie.  They say that one or more of my movie clips must have imbedded data that it shutting the whole iMovie program down.  They say there is no way to know which clip is causing the problem.  I really don't want to remake the entire 2 hour movie.  I tried to use time machine and found my movie from about 3 weeks ago (before it ballooned to 10GB--so I guess before I added the bad clip) and I just wanted to replace my current one with this version and just fill in the last 3 weeks of data.  However I can't seem to do this.  Does anyone know how to do this using iMovie '08?

    You don't do it with iMovie, but with Time Machine.
    Quit iMovie, then locate and select the file you want to restore in your backups via the "Star Wars" display and click the Restore button.  See #15 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.

  • How to create a repeating region like the attachements in Gmail

    I don't even know how to begin Googling or searching here for
    this topic. But I've got a form and I want to have two fields show
    up for inputting the fabric type and then the pattern name. This
    site will allow them to request fabric swatches to see in person
    how they look and make a decision for their furniture. And if
    customers want to ask for more than one sample, I want to be able
    to have a link that says, "Request another" and when clicked, it
    creates another instance of those two fields automagically, just
    how the attachments in Gmail work.
    Is this something possible with Spry? I'd like to think it
    is, but it might need some jury rigging to ensure that the ids for
    those text inputs are all unique and such. But like I said, I don't
    even know how to begin searching for this topic since "repeating
    area" or "repeating region" brings back 1000s of unrelating
    results.
    Anyone have any experience doing something like this and
    could shed some light on it and/or point me toward some resources
    that could help out?
    Thanks!

  • How I Got Time Machine to See the Time Capsule

    I had a Time Capsule set up as a secondary router with my Verizon FIOS router. This was working okay, but when I upgraded my OS to Leopard and tried to set up Time Machine, the software wouldn't find the TC as a backup location. When it asked where to put the backup, the list was always blank.
    I could click on "set up time capsule" but the software always said there were no Apple devices detected no matter how much I refreshed the list.
    I disabled my AirPort and connected my MacBook to the TC with an Ethernet cable. Then it was able to detect the TC and do a backup (and Ethernet is way faster than wireless).
    I'm not sure if this will work for routine backups after I disconnect the cable, but at least I got this much to work!

  • How to restore time machine disk to the original one?

    I am new to the mac osx world, my macbook pro has 500GB and I used 350 GB for my MAC OSX system, another 150 GB for windows system. I partition it but made a mistake when under the OSX system, I erased the windows disk( 150 GB). When I tried to partition the disk again, it said: "The startup disk must be formatted as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant for installing Windows."
    Now I just wanna back the 150 GB to my original 350 GB disk so my macbook can have 500 GB disk. How can I do under the disk utility? I do not know the "erase" "RAID" " restore" mean. Thanks for help!

    Try using the "Boot Camp Assistant" (in the Utilities folder) to delete the Windows partition.

  • How to get Time Machine to "find" the correct network location

    I have a Time Capsule set up to work wirelessly with my Macbook Air. I set it up as an additional network. This network is used for backups to Time Capsule only. It does not have any connection to my existing home network that I use for internet access, printing, etc. Is there a way to make my Mac switch to the correct network when Time Machine is trying to start a backup? Right now, I have to manually select the network in Airport locations. When I want to use the internet, or print to a network printer, I have to manually switch back to the main network. That defeats the purpose of Time Machine's automatic backup capability. I was not able to get TM working when TC was set up on my main network; that's why I had to set up a separate network connection.

    Leopard just arrived this morning for me, but I haven't yet had a chance to install it. Is this to say that by default, Leopard ignores any drives that aren't directly attached to your Mac? I don't mind having to do your suggested work around, it just kind of annoys me that Apple would so blatantly ignore the needs of mobile users. My MacBook is not tethered to an external hard drive all hours of the day. But it is on my wireless network any time it is awake. Hence, network drives (in my case AirPort Disk) make sense for me.

  • How to play back one channel of the stereo track in both headphone cans?

    I recorded two microphones in one stereo track. Is there some way I could listen to the left channel and then to the right channel in both cans in my headphones, like a mono track? Panning moves all sound to the left can or the right one in my headphones. But I'd like to listed Left channel as mono channel in both headphone cans, and then press some button and listen to the right channel in both cans. How can I do it?

    No problem. By the way, there is a wrinkle in Logic that you may not be aware of.
    When dealing with a stereo track, the knob in the channel strip that you may think of as a Pan knob is not. It's a Balance knob. What is does is to change the level of what's in either left or right channel but does NOT move the left signal to the right or vice versa.
    To prove this:
    * Create a project with two mono audio tracks
    * Put different files on each track
    * Pan one hard left, the other hard right
    * Bounce the result
    * Create a new project with a stereo audio track
    * Import the audio that you exported above
    * Use the Balance Knob to bring either up or down
    * Note you cannot move one signal from its original position
    If you want to pan a stereo signal, you have to use the insert: Imaging > Direction Mixer. Only then can you position a stereo signal in your stereo field. This is documented in the user manual in the section called: "Setting the Pan, Balance, or Surround Position".
    Have fun!
