How do you lock audio regions?

Hi,
I am looking for a way to lock my audio regions so that their length cannot be modified. Lock SMPTE position does not accomplish this...
Is there a way?

Greetings IA,
Sorry but I don't know of a way of doing that. There's no keyboard shortcut, no Edit command and no combination click. You might be able to help yourself by using the local menu Edit > Select Used to identify those bits of audio in your arrange window or you can:
Go to the arrange window
Edit > Select All
Return to the Audio Window
View > Group files by > Selection in Arrange
That gives you an Audio Window view with all your used files bundled together so you can lock the individual clips. Sorry I can't help any more than that.
Looks like an omission to me and you could always pass it to Apple as an enhancement request.

    How do you lock the screen on iphone 4 while on a call? I mute calls, activate face time and I have even called someone by accident during a call. I know there has to be a way to fix this. Please HELP!

    It locks automatically when you hold it to your head.
    If it fails to do this, then remove the case and see if it solves it.
    If it does not, then do the basics - restart, reset, restore.
    If that does not solve it, then make an appointment at the genius bar.

    The audio inputs on Macs are line level inputs and not mic inputs.  You need a mic with a built in preamp (battery powered) or more conveniently a USB mic or bluetooth headset.

  • How do you monitor audio?

    I have a few questions about monitoring audio in my fcp/stp projects.
    Currently, I have a g5 quad that has an optical toslink output, that I use to connect to the optical in on a good denon home theater receiver (avr 3801). This is how i output my mac's audio. I have two B&W bookshelf speakers as my monitor speakers.
    Is this acceptable to use to monitor my sound for my editing projects? I am not doing much music work, mostly just voice track cleanup on my video projects.
    How do you connect audio equipment in your setup to monitor audio?
    I am thinking of buying an Alesis 12 track multimix firewire mixer, is this a better interface to use and do I route the signal from the multimix to the receiver to get to the speakers, or should I just get powered monitor speakers and connect them to the mixer?
    Also, when editing audio, which is mostly dialogue, is there a volume setting I should keep my receiver at and just work the levels in stp to get the volume right? My receiver has a volume level from -60Db to 0 to 18Db. I am worried about setting my project audio to high or too low.

    Giving advice such as saying <Your B & W speakers might be good enough for the job, their lineage is as a studio monitor for the BBC. If you paid over $500/pr, and they sound good, then they're probably good enough. You can use them with a mixer hooked-up to your Mac and outputted to the Denon like in your current set-up> is so cool, if that was the case would,nt you think for a quick minute they would be recomended by pro or advertise as nearfield monitor and not hi-fi.
    <conveinient to buy active monitors.> that ain't the case active monitors are made for monitor audio interms of listening to frequency that would be imposible to hear on hi-fi speakers which is the opposite of hi-fi which is more colour-full and does'nt give the true sound, also because its self-power and easy to plug and play.
    <The playback volume you use is relative. Most of the engineers I've worked with over the past 30 years prefer to listen back at higher volumes> most pro enginineer listen to mix at very low D.B so as to know exactly what there getting, and after crank them up to hear the over-all levels, any engineer that linsten at loud D.B. does that to show off in seeking attention fr. clients making them feel as if the mix or the song is all that, take it outside the studio and its a different story! <listen back at higher volumes than I'm comfortable with,> thats what i have just explain.
    <As far as the levels within the track are concerned, that is all done in the software, again per your preferences, and with an eye on the meters.> it would be nice of you to explain what meter are you talking about, and if it was all so easy with eyes on the meter, dont you think every mixing engineer or anyone attempting to mix would all were glasses, meter in sofware aren't the same as the meters in a pro studio, nor is it the same in hardware, also not all meters are the same where as mixing is concern, they are special meters prefreable know as V.U. meters, check below and you'll all get a better understanding of what i have just out-line, before giving wrong advice of monitor audio.

    How do you make audio fast without changing pitch?

    PrPro may have that but I've always just gone over to Audition ... you change speed there, you're given a choice of keeping the pitch the same or allow it to change. Note ... if there's much cha ge in speed the result can be odd.

  • Question on locked audio regions

    I saw a Logic 7 video a few days ago in which a locked audio region had its start point dragged to the right. This process shortened the region but left the new region with exactly the same bar/timecode position as before. I don't seem to be able to do this in Logic 9. Has this facility been removed?

    ...but in the video I mentioned the locked region's front end was dragged while the region was still in the arrangement window. That looked a really handy feature and I still can't work out if it's still possible in Logic 9.

    how do you convert audio to ac3 in DVD SP 4 without a.pack
    thanks
    Josh

    NO. If you let DVDSP make your encoding you'll get uncompressed audio (AIFF/PCM) what means most probably high bitrate issues during building/playback and a lot of the space of your disc.

  • How do you lock wi fi on your laptop?

    How do you lock wi fi on your laptop?

    If you mean the lock next to the signal strength in the pulldown menu that appears when you click on the wifi icon on the toolbar, that lock means that the network is secure.  The way to get it is to connect to a secure network, one that requires a password. If you are connected to your home network and you don't see that lock, it means anyone can connect to your wireless router.  Not a very secure setup.  Read though your router manual to find out how to set up a secure network.
