How do you fine tune volume levels?

Whenever I drag the volume dots (or the mixer slider) it changes in odd increments like 1.1 at a time. And what's even weirder is some tracks can be changed in increments of, say, 1.1 and the track right below it can be changed in increments of .8 or something like that. I want to be able to change in very small increments like .1

Have you tried holding down the SHIFT key before you drag the slider? For example, I've found that I can change the stereo pan by +/-1 instead of +/-16.
You can change the volume slider by 0.1db if you hold the SHIFT key down first. But I've noticed that GB is very twitchy...don't be surprised when you hold down SHIFT and click on the adjustment "dot" that GB3 will jump the volume by 3db. Just keep the SHIFT key down and drag the volume slider up/down and you'll see that it does change by 0.1 db.
Good luck!

How do you fine tune an effect in Captivate 6

I'm trying to scale and move a video using the effects timeline and I want it to wind up in an exact location on the stage. Is there any way to fine tune it by entering in exact coordinates rather than by bouncing back & forth between Live Preview and Edit View? I'm used to being able to entering in exact numbers when tweening an object in Flash and this seems like a pretty bad way of moving things around on the screen. Am I missing something here?
Thanks

As a temporary workaround, this is my work flow:
I create a 'crosshair' in the exact location, using two line shapes that can be positioned exactly using the Transform accordion.
The motion path end points have a circle that you'll have to drag over the crosshair. Motion paths use the center point of an object, contrary to resizing, moving that is from the upper left corner of the bounding box. I used the described work flow in the first movie here: http://blog.lilybiri.com/reset-effects

How do you fine tune radio station

After I've created a radio station, how do you get back to the window for fine tuning the station?
I'm on a Mac Pro, so I'm running iTunes on that, not an iPod, phone or iPad.

The only way to fix a lens is to send it back to the manufacturer. You make the adjustments in the camera, not the lens. However, only certain cameras have micro-adjustment (AFMA). Which model are you using?
There are DIY ways to do it, but I'd suggest plunking down a little money for a program like Reikan's FoCal and have it do it for you.

How can you change the volume level????

Hi all:
I don't know if this is possible but sometimes I want to reduce or increase the volume level of several clips (10 or 20) by the same amount while they are linne up in the timeline, they are individual clips arranged back to back during the edit. I want to either up the volume by 10db or down 10db from baseline 0db.
Do I have to do it induvidually or is ther a way to select them and apply the change to all of them at one time.????
Your input is appreciated
Thanks,
AppleLou

And to go a step further, put them all into a Compound Clip, and you can apply a single filter to them all at once, plus keyframe your audio over time to them all at once.

Crrystal Reports using ADO. How do you Change the Isolation Level?

Crrystal Reports using ADO. How do you Change the Isolation Level? I found a knowledge base article that allows you to change it for ODBC. But nothing on ADO. I kicked around changing the reports to ODBC but even then the keys described in the article do no exist. Any suggestions?

I want to make sure that points 2&3 are at the same level, so I can just move the envelope region between them up and down to change the volume. Any quick way to do this to speed up my process?
Specifically to address this point: if you mouse over the audio levels' rubber band segment BETWEEN your points 2) and 3) until the cursor changes to an up/down adjustment arrow ⬍, and move it up/down, it will adjust BOTH the levels at 2) and 3), maintaining the relative difference between them (or, if points 2) and 3) start at the same level, this adjustment will keep them equal as you drag them both up/down together in one action.)
As usual, much easier to DO it, rather than describe it!

How do you set the zoom level to Inherit Zoom for all bookmarks in a pdf?

How do you set the zoom level to Inherit Zoom for all bookmarks in a pdf?

beatngu13
I made an account just to "like" your comment and say that you are a god among men.
I've been searching for hours about how to make the zoom level persistent throughout following links in various PDF's I have, and most sources were saying to just buy acrobat pro and edit the bookmarks manually with it.
I saw that it was possible to write an application to change the property, and considered doing it after the only pre-existing custom application I could find was asking for $50.
Thanks to you, I no longer have to worry about re-zooming every time I click a bookmark, and I'm not out $50 or the time it would take to code an app myself!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!

How do you control the volume to the earphones?

Apple Support Communities updatesActually I knew that part of it, but I had to go to Settings to correct something. They are working now that I fixed something that I have no recollection that I altered in the first place, nor do I now know what in heaven’s name I fixed this time. All I know is that I must have gone to setting a million and one times and the last time was the one I did something right.
Thank you for your help however.

How do you Control SPDIF input levels in Logic Pro using Apogee Ensemble

Hello,
Question. I have an Apogee Ensemble audio interface hooked up to my Macbook Pro. I have a Motif XS8 that I record audio from through SPDIF.
I am able to get sound through to my audio track once setting the inputs in Logic, however the levels are not even close to halfway. I can not figure out how to fix adjust the SPDIF level to make it hotter b/c I know once I add virtual tracks and vocals through my preamp, the audio from my motif will likely not be hearable.
Please let me know.
Also, when I record an audio track is says about 15 minutes remaining to record. Does that mean I have 15 mins of audio for each track or for all my recording period???

Not owning an Apogee Ensemble, maybe someone else who does has more definitive info can jump in, but do not confuse the lower level of the SPDIF input with "lesser quality". It's a digital connection, with no analog conversion.
-18 dBFS on a digital scale is the same as 0dB on an analog scale.
I think what you're experiencing, is the fact that so many people think they need to get the meters in Logic closer to 0dB, which is actually NOT what you want (when staying ITB). This thinking is left over from the days of analogue recording, or the early days of 16 bit digital recording.
Turn your other sources in Logic down, and you'll reap the benefits of not overloading the 2 buss, allowing the plug-ins to do their computations without distorting, etc... Then you can bring the over all level of your mix back up, in mastering.
If the Motif is considerably lower in volume than that, you could always insert a gainer plug-in on the audio track.
As to the 15 minutes, that is what Logic has pre-allocated for recording to your hard drive. It "re-sets" each time you go into record, so it's not saying "you only have 15 minutes of record time available". It's saying, "you have 15 minutes of hard disk space allocated each time you go into record, based on your sample rate and bit depth settings". This can be changed in the Audio pathway, but it's recommended to leave this number as low as possible/necessary, to avoid disk fragmentation.

How do you set different volumes on dual mono?

I'm missing something, I'm sure, right? I normally record a mic to a channel and NAT sound to another channel - so say for example, I might mic up a presenter on stage, and take that feed into Channel 1 (external source) and leave my on-cam mic set to internal for Channel 2 - so I can bring that up in the edit for either Q&A from the audience or just to swell applause. In FCP7 audio tracks showed dual mono as two tracks with individual overlays so you could adjust each channel as needed. In X I only see a single track of dual audio, and in the information box, I can check or uncheck the channel I want - and a lot of times, that's good enough, but how do you keep both channels and adjust the volume of each one seperately?

Tom - thank you. So to make sure I am clear though, (my audio was always dual mono, and in the inspector they are represented as two seperate tracks where I have the option to check or uncheck each one), but the timeline, they appear as a single track and in your solution (which worked) you are saying to break apart (as in make them seperate from each other and able to fall out of sync? that kind of break apart?) it still worked I was able to see two tracks, similar to FCP7 - and I can adjust volume seperately on each channel, but are they no longer linked in terms of sync? If I am understanding correctly, then is that to say there is no way to keep their connection to the video they belong to and also still see each channel and adjust each channel independently of the other?

How do you turn down volume in bed?

I regularly use my smartphone in bed to listen to music once the light it out.
If a song comes on that I don't want to hit, I click the button on the top to go to next track. Don't need to - in darkness - look at the screen opening my eyes to do that. I can just feel for it and click. Very useful when tired but want to be "sung to sleep".
How would you achieve this on any iphone, particularly the 4S?

How do you control the volume of multiple audio tracks

Hi
I have about eight tracks of audio in my Finalcut timeline. When played, sometimes the music track will be much louder than the narration track or the FXs track will be louder than the all tracks.
How do I lower or raise the volume of tracks so that the track that needs to heard is heard.
I dont want to do an all out mix yet. I'm just building tracks
Thanks

Select all of your audio, go to the Modify > Audio > Apply Audio Normalization. It will bring all clips in each track to be the same level. Then, later, you can do your final mix much easier.
Or go to Window > Arrange > Audio Mixing and you'll have an on-screen mixing board to work with. There's a speaker icon in the top right, green keyframing is on while you mix in realtime during playback, gray, keyframing is off.
But use the first method first, for sure. Open the audio mixer after that, you'll save yourself a ton of work and time.
