How exactly do you Export GB midi song so it Sounds at the level of prof CD

I mean volume.
Because i've tried it many times and
either the made CD that i make, the song sounds too low volume even if i put the CD Boombox at full volume, the song is at a looow volume,
or other times it sounds SOOOOO loud even at 5 percent of the total CD boombox volume.
I've treid it with Normalize option on and off.

A couple of things maybe worth mentioning...
Modern CD's are way over compressed and too loud...it's not a bad thing if your tunes are not as loud necessarily.
However, if you want them that way...you need to work with the tools to do so.
For a typical GB user that means working with the tools provided in GB or using third party plug-in.
Of which there are many to choose from at vastly differing prices.
An example of a good sounding 3rd party plug-in that is also inexpensive and easy to work with are Stillwell's Major Tom and Vibe EQ.....

If you don't want to do the work or understand the process....options are using pre-sets.
Ozone 4 for example can be downloaded as a demo. And includes quite a few presets.
http://www.izotope.com/products/audio/ozone/
While it may seem daunting to understand..it's not really...google how to use compressor's. Check youtube for it too...I think you will see it is not that hard and the rewards far outweigh any reluctance to learn it.
On another note why are you exporting Mp3's?
Export your audio as 24bit Aiff's.
Encode from there...

How do you sync only selected songs to your ipod using the new version of itunes?

how do you sync only selected songs to your ipod using the new version of itunes?

Same way you did with the previous versions of iTunes.
To view the iPod in iTunes, Ctrl S to show the sidebar.
Create a playlist, add songs and sync that playlist.
Or drag songs to the iPod in iTunes.

You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

How Exactly Are You 'Meant' To Log Onto BT Wifi?

Can someone tell me what exactly are you meant to use to log in to a hotspot ? Is it the BT ID/Password you access your online customer account with? Is it the @btinternet.com with the same or different password? Is it something else?
We got BT Infinity this past Monday (that bit works fine).
We can see/access the local hotspots (BT Wifi/FON), but they fail to recognise our logins details as valid.
When I use our valid BT ID/Password on the "Check the status of your BT Wi-fi account" page, it reports "Enter valid Username". If I switch it for the @btinternet.com address we were given, it says "Authentication failed. Invalid username or password" .
The "Register for BT Wi-fi", section says "Enter valid Username" or "Resubmission Error!" respectively.
To make matters even more confusing, when our broadband was originally switched over to BT from Plusnet (but the engineer had not arrived yet) I phoned up to ask how to access a hotspot, and a lady in one of the Indian call centres gave me a string of numbers to use as a username/password (eg 10563482 cgnywtbe). Suffice it to say this made no sense, nor did it work.
So exactly what is the correct process?

[SOLVED]How exactly do you install Arch using UEFI?

I want to switch my laptop to UEFI. I have a few questions I'd like to ask.
* Does UEFI require a bios boot partition?
* If not but I add a bios boot partition and efi partition is it true I can boot into my system both with UEFI enabled and not enabled?
Will the following set my laptop to use UEFI?
Create a partition scheme as follows;
1. bios boot -- about 2mb -- ef02
2. efi boot partition -- about 200mb (is this size about right?) -- fat32
3. root -- 8300
4. swap
5. home -- 8300
Then when I mount everything I make sure to mount the efi partition like
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot/efi
It goes to /boot/efi right?
Then when installing GRUB, I install it like;
grub-install --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=grub_uefi --recheck
And finally I'd run the
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Is that the gist for the most part?

Here is what I did,
I booted Arch install media (not from UEFI).
I made my partition scheme is gdisk:
1. 2M -- ef02 -- BIOS boot
2. 500M -- ef00 -- efi
3. 30G -- 8300 -- root
4. 12G -- 8200 -- swap
5. 195G -- 8300 -- home
I then did my mkfs:
mkfs.ext2 /dev/sda2
mkfs.fat -s2 -F32 /dev/sda2
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda3
mkswap /dev/sda4
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda5
When I first made my file extensions I made the mistake of not making the efi partition fat32. I knew it had to be fat32 and I wasn't sure if just making it ef00 was enough. So I searched Google. I didn't find much so I pushed forward.
I eventually got an error when trying to do grub-install, it said /dev/sda2 does not look like and efi partition.
So I thought about it, was it the size I chose, was it that I was just putting it in /boot, was it not fat32? I immediately decided it must not be fat32. And I was right. After a search I discovered I needed to do mkfs.fat. So I did this and success! Grub installed everything where it needed to be. (So it is true when they say Arch doesn't care if you have /boot/efi or /boot/EFI. Just using /boot is enough. That is fact.)
But now I had another error. I forgot to install efibootmgr package... By this time I thought I had it so I started all over. This was actually my laptop so I wasn't going to give it more than two tries. So I started from scratch. A second and final try...
I set up my partition scheme, did my mk stuff, and mounted all of my filesystems. Then Installed the base and base-devel packages. I went into arch-chroot on /mnt and then into a bash..
I went through a couple of basic setup things and then I installed grub and efibootmgr. I then ran
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot --bootloader-id=grub_uefi --recheck
Hooray! No errors reported! I checked /boot and everything was there and laid out perfectly!
So I did the grub-mkconfig..... And rebooted.
But it wouldn't boot!
I started to dig around the Arch wiki and read it is a good idea to start out in UEFI mode and go into the install media and proceed. So I tried this in a VM. The Arch install media would not start in UEFI mode. So I just came to the conclusion that there is something I am missing. Either in GRUB or something I don't understand about my laptop.
I installed Fedora 21 in a VM out of UEFI mode and then again where I started out in UEFI mode. Starting out in UEFI mode did seem to make a difference. I just gave up on my laptop and installed it back with bios and no UEFI. I'm going to dig around and see if I can find what I'm doing wrong.
Could it boil down to not being able to start out in UEFI mode and then switch back into UEFI mode after install? I highly doubt it. There is just something I'm missing..
Marking this as solved. Thanks everyone.
Edit:
Starting out in UEFI mode made the difference! I just wasn't being patient with my VM. Starting out in UEFI mode and then performing the install makes the difference! After following that process I can boot into Arch using UEFI!
Also, I mentioned I couldn't get Arch install media to start in UEFI. That was my fault. When i created my usb i didn't make it a UEFI bootable device! So I would go into my boot options and I would see UEFI but my usb only showed in the legacy list.

How can an iTunes Match user prevent songs from being uploaded to the iCloud?

Has anyone who is currently using iTunes Match found a way to prevent selected songs in their music library from being uploaded to the iCloud. I have a number of audio files that are hour long mixes, but aren't quite large enough to run afoul of the 200MB size limit. I'd like to keep using iTunes Match, but would like to prevent it from trying to upload any of these larger files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Another oddity I just discovered is that if I turn on wifi hotspot on my phone and connect my iMac to my phone's 3G service then iTunes on my iMac will stream music just fine from iTunes match (yes, the music was only in the cloud, not on my drive).
I've tried everything I can think of to get iTunes Match to play tracks over cellular.. including totally deauthorizing all my computers and devices, totally removing all tracks my itunes match in the cloud and re-scanning/uploading everything. Purchased new tracks, and they won't play unless they are downloaded. But they will play just fine when previeing them for purchase in iTunes app.

How do I find total number of songs in my library in the new iTunes 11?

Last version of iTunes showed the total number of songs within the library on the bottom of the screen. Now that's disappeared and I don't know where to find that piece of info.
Any suggestions?

Click View>Show Sidebar
It looks about like the old version.
Or you can simply click your ipod name at the top of your screen and sync as always.
The new version is not that different from the old one

I have songs on iTunes that seem to have corrupted files with time. The songs play for a while then suddenly stop mid-song and iTunes goes to the next song. On my iPod the playback pauses for a few seconds then picks up again.

Some of these songs were purchased via iTunes. I would like to download them again but the Download buttons are grayed out when I bring up the purchased songs listing. Any help appreciated. Is there any way to quickly get a file integrity check done?
Kerry

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them (if they are still in your country's store) via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes. Or delete them and copy them back (File > Add To Library) from your backup of your downloads/library.

How to delete multiple duplicates of multiple songs?

How to delete multiple duplicates of multiple songs from my library at the same time, rather than each individually?

Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See thisthread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning
to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.

How can I properly export video w/ bars to Rec709 (16-235 in 8-bit) from Premiere's RGB (0-255)?

I have hit some real frustrations in working with Premiere to meet broadcast Rec709 standards for DVD & Blu-Ray. Avid Symphony works in a Rec709 space and clearly operates with its video signal from 16-235 (which matches IRE 7.5 to 100), but Premiere doesn't seem to have this understanding in its programming and engineering. Here are my issues:
1) I can't manually enter in the digital values in the RGB Curve tool's points. Why would Premiere's engineers lock this basic feature out? It's in Photoshop.
2) I can't properly export Premiere's color bars. In order to export to Rec709 standards, to get around issue #1, I hack into the RGB Curves preset XML file to lift the Master Curve's point 1 from 0 to 16 and set the final white point from 255 to 235. If I use Premiere's bars, on the waveform, I can see the sub-black values, but when I lift the blacks with the curves preset, it clips all sub-black values upon export. WHY?! To get around this problem, I import bars generated by a camera (for example, by a Sony EX-350, i.e. XDCAM footage). All of this wouldn't be an issue if there were an export function that specifies exporting to rec709's 16-235 values instead of 0-255, as Avid does.
3) Particularly, the Waveform scope lies to me. The 7.5 IRE setup button does NOTHING for me, it's just a preview option that causes more confusion than clarity. Does Premiere map 0 out of 0-255 as 0 IRE or 7.5 IRE? I think it does the former and just uses that setup button to make you think that it's at 7.5. so if you do set it to 7.5, how then do you export it to match that option? Also, why can't the waveform scope have multiple options for the units - not just IRE, but also digital values (8-bit, 10-bit, linearized, etc.)?!
4) Speaking of importing the bars and footage. To continue the example of the Sony EX-350 - it imports the bars automatically by putting the black values at 0 IRE, not 7.5 IRE.
If Adobe wants industry professionals to take Premiere seriously, it needs to open up these options and clearly present what happens to tonal values in the image. It's very frustrating to figure out all of these problems and create cockamamy work-arounds.

Steve,
Thanks for your reply! However, I hope you don't take my response the wrong way, but, with no meaning of disrespect to you personally, the notion that curves are the wrong tool for numeric adjustments extremely infuriates me and displays a real lack of understanding of why a colorist or cinematographer such as myself would want to use curves in the first place.
First, any LUT generation program or coloring program, such as Apple Color, gives complete access to numerical control to give precise, repeatable changes that you cannot get with the drag of a mouse. Photoshop, Avid Symphony, etc. all have curves tools with the ability to manually enter points.
Second, on a user level, there should be no wrong tool for numeric adjustments, especially curves - they are the most precise means to obtain a specific contrast response. Levels or RGB corrector will only give gamma, pedestal, and gain operations, but curves gives every possible shape of a contrast response in between. If I wanted to create a very specific S-curve, I must use the curves tool to do so.
Third, the question at hand is not Premiere Pro's ability to process natively in Rec709 with signal from 16-235 - Premiere's native ability to process all types of video input is the sole reason why I've switched to it as a platform. 'Sub-black values are not necessarily clamped'?! How then can I export a TIFF, for example, of Premiere's bars, with the sub-black values left intact? How do I even access these sub-black values, when all footage clips below 0 IRE? The primary question is, how does Premiere handle and export these IRE values with respect to digital values, whether they are 8-bit, 10-bit, 12-bit, etc.?
Adobe's video workflow lacks a concise, cohesive FAQ or explanation of its numerical signal chain. At least, I have missed it and can't find it anywhere. If I want to properly color grade footage with a proper final output in mind, I need to know my end goals to take the proper intermediary steps.

How do I use more than 1 song in a slideshow

Now that iPhoto is back and running, thanks to Terence Devlin, how do I put more than one song to a slide show? So far, I can only figure out how to put one in (from iTunes). Ideally, I would like to phase out in the middle of one song and splice into another...I know the answer is out there Thanks

You can choose a playlist, rather than one song. You may need to look for the little dimple in order to see your playlists in the window. Have a look at this thread and click on lori's helpful screenshots for detailed instructions.
To have one song fade out in the middle and transition into another song you can create your compilation in Garageband. Launch Garageband and drag the first song into the track area of the main window. You can keep dragging songs in, placing them in the same track. You can shorten a song, fade it out where you want it to fade, and fade in to the next song. Save it to iTunes, where it will be a new "song". Select that for your slideshow.

How many times can I burn a song to CD?

It's been a while, but I read somewhere, that there is a limit to how many times you can burn a song off your Library. I understand the reason for that. I think it said something like 7 times?? I have an iPod, and normally transfer my playlists to it. I change my playlists frequently, so if I were to burn these to CD, I'd have long ago used up my limit.
I have a nice CD player in my Jeep now. I can't hook my iPod to it, so I want to burn some playlists to CD for my Jeep stereo. Do I need to be careful, not to exceed a certain allowance?...or am I just in error, and there is no need to worry?
Was this limit in regards to an entire Album? and single songs in a ever changing playlist is okay?

Is there a way to check to see if a song is DRM protected?
I have been reading what I can on the subject, and it appears I can expect the songs I've purchased from iTunes online, like my AC/DC albums, Scorpions Albums, and Zappa, etc. and etc. are going to be DRM protected.
Maybe I should have bought these Albums elsewhere...but...(shrug)
I have many Celine Albums and Satriani, Heart, etc. that I purchased elsewhere.
Really, the bulk of my Library is made up of songs from CD's I've imported into my Library. I've looked for some evidence of this DRM protection, and I don't see anything..other than an FBI copy theft warning.
Finally, I guess I am a tad bit confused still. I understand any of my songs DRM protected, if I use them in a playlist, any playlist 7 times.. I will be limited now, to only 7 downloads to a CD. That does cause me to rethink how I wish to make playlists.
Am I right to assume now...any song in my playlists that are not under this DRM grip, I will not have to fear using them in a playlist?
On one hand I understand the reasons for protection...and it has nothing to do with decent folks like us. But what irritates me...is I paid for that music...and I should be able to make CD playlists as often as I want....live and learn.
I suppose I should never invest my money on Albums or songs as downloads over the internet. Just go buy the CD?...right?

How can i delete a bunch of songs at once?

how can i delete a bunch of songs at once? Like the ones with the exclamation mark? without having to click control and click on all 1050 songs?

As long as they are in a continuous range, select the first, then hold SHIFT and click on the last. All in between will be selected. You can also use CTRL-click to add or remove individual songs from the selection. When you are ready you can delete the selection.
You might find iTunes Folder Watch useful if your missing files are scattered randomly through the library.
