How sensitive is Soundtrack Pro analyze

I send aiff file to Soundtrack Pro to check for clicks and pops. After the analyze the whole file gets red. Almost no green stripes. I just wonder what STP "thinks" click and pops are ? After the fix all the sound is strange actually something like clicking sounds. I am rather confused.

Hi Folks,
For me 1.0.2 installed and is working fine. If you guys are really stuck, I'd suggest calling Apple's support line instead of just posting on these forums--as I've said before, if I downloaded an update that made my app stop working, I'd be on the phone to Apple ASAP. If you really want a fix, go to the source.
Have you folks even tried calling Apple? What did they have to say?
Here's some info that might be of interest:
In the past I ran into an issue where I inherited a laptop from a colleage that had some info about his apps that seemed to still be valid after I installed my own licenses. To resolve this issue, I ended up blasting the SystemID files and re-entering my own serial numbers, causing new System ID files to be created.
If you want to cause STP to re-set its System ID (it will ask you for a valid serial number again, the re-create the System ID), then I'd suggest archiving & deleting the System ID that STP is using (e.g. /LibraryApplication Support/ProApps/Final Cut Studio System ID) then restarting Soundtrack Pro--this should ask you to re-enter the serial number, and it will re-create the System ID file.
If you try this, please backup/archive any files you delete, make sure you have all your serial numbers handy so you can re-enter them, and be very careful--don't flame me if you do something dumb.
The only reason I mention this is because it kinda makes sense that it might be related, and on that crazy long thread about serial numbers, the one guy that actually provided info about what resolved his problem suggested that removing and re-creating his System ID actually resolved his issue.
I hope this helps.

  • How to uninstall Soundtrack Pro

    Hi,
    I've upgraded to Logic Studio 2 and I only use Logic Pro. All has been fine but my disk is near to be full, so I want to recover some space uninstalling Soundtrack Pro ( v3.0 ) and the contents associated with it.
    I have not found any reference to a customized uninstall in the documentation from Apple. Is there any 'official' procedure to uninstall only Soundtrack Pro ?? Or delete all apps to do a clean install ??
    Regards,
    Joan

    The app for STP3 is not very large. It is in Applications folder.
    Other content like Apple Loops and sound beds are used by Logic too. You can find these here -

  • I purchased Logic Pro in the app store and wanted to know how I get soundtrack pro downloaded?

    I recently purchased Logic from the app store.  I have been reading up on tutorials and it made mention of Soundtrack Pro which is supposed to be bundled with the software.  Where do I download this?  Is this not a full version of Logic?

    Hi
    Soundtrack Pro was included in the Logic STUDIO bundle on DVD's. The Appstore Logic Pro is just that: Logic Pro.
    Soundtrack Pro would seem to have been discontinued and is no longer available.

  • Installing Soundtrack Pro audio content

    Hi. I am about to install the version of Soundtrack Pro that comes w/ Final Cut Studio 2 and would like to install the audio content that comes on the three DVDs onto a secondary internal drive, the same drive where I store my video media files. Now, I also have audio content from Soundtrack v1.5 (that came w/ FCE 3.5) installed on my boot drive. Are all these files duplicated within the new audio content that comes w/ Soundtrack Pro that I am about to install? If not, will I be able to access both libraries of audio content once I have Soundtrack Pro installed, even though the two libraries will reside on different drives? And when I install the new audio content onto the secondary drive, where is the best location to keep the files? On what level of the drive and what should I name the folder? Thanks for your consideration.

    Most of the content should be about the same. The big came change between versions two and three. And that change was in the use of Apple CAF files. That stands for compressed audio file, from what I understand.
    If you search this forum you'll find that this topic came up several times. This extensive documentation on how to force soundtrack Pro to access sound effects libraries on external drives, or on different directories on your primary hard drive. easy way to deal with it right now is to simply move your existing libraries onto a directory on an external drive. Installed the new files. Then move them where you'd like them. Then tell soundtrack Pro would access everything. If it were me, I would just install the new files and not worry about the old ones. Duplicates will be overwritten and non-duplicates will be preserved. You can then move whatever files you want anywhere you want and then tell soundtrack Pro were to find them.

  • Soundtrack Pro won't load... flashes quick splash screen, then quits.

    I have a question... about how to get Soundtrack Pro working again.
    It worked fine before, but now when I try to load it up, the splash screen (the logo and company info) pops up REAL quick, so fast you can barely see it, and then the program just shuts down abruptly.
    I tried removing preference files and reinstalling, then uninstalling with FCS Remover, then reinstalling. I also tried reinstalling all of Final Cut Studio, but didn't use FCS Remove to uninstall before doing so. Anything short of another complete uninstall/reinstall that I can try to fix this issue?
    My machine: silver MacBook, 10.5.8, 2.4GHz, 2GB RAM. Plenty of hard drive space available. NVIDIA GeForce 9400M.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Mine started doing this recently. I had STP 3.0.1 and FCS 7.0.2 installed on my Mac Pro running 10.6.3 (with all updates installed). I tried deleting the STP preferences and AU and effects caches. Still no go. Tried to restore it from my Time Machine backup but I only started using TM a week ago and that didn't help either.
    Here's the Console log:
    4/20/10 12:10:14 PM Soundtrack Pro[457] Unable to load nib file: MainMenu, exiting

    I've got another copy of FCS/STP on another machine (MacBook Pro with 10.5.8), and it's running FCS 7.0 and STP 3.0. One odd thing I noticed is that the old STP application file is over 200MB and the new one is only 85MB . So I copied the old (3.0) app over the network and replaced my new one (3.0.1) with the old. Problem solved; it works now, but I hope I don't have serial number problems.
    Apparently the upgrade to 7.0.2/3.0.1 has screwed things up. Good grief. And this is just off the Quicktime Export debacle of a couple weeks ago. What's wrong with Apple? I didn't used to have this many problems.

  • How do you fix Clipped Signals in Soundtrack Pro in the Waveform Window

    In "Analysis", under "Analysis Type", I checked (only) the Clipped Signal box and clicked on the "Analyze" button. STP found numerous clipped signals. However, selecting either one or all on the list, the "Fix" and "Fix All" buttons remain grayed out. How do I fix these?
    macbook Pro 15"   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   Soundtrack Pro 1.1

    Far as I know, this feature just finds the clipped
    clips . . . it doesn't fix them. You'd have to do
    that manually and there's no good way to do that . .
    . except to avoid them in the first place.

    Thank you. I suspected that was the case. Wonder if that will be improved upon in FCS2?

  • How do I get a mixer to show up in Soundtrack Pro?

    The problem is not using a mixer but I can't get one to show. I see my sound track, (can play) and did analysis and cleaned up but clicking all mixer buttons and choosing a different layout all 3 choices never give me a mixer.
    The lower pane with the mixer highlighted is blank. I also set up a new project choosing multitrack with mixers or Seperate Mixer and video which show the mixers but as soon as I put my aif file into Soundtrack the mixer disappears from the window only the wave forms are there. I have posted this several times.There must be somebody who has a clue what is going on here? (Apple?)Thank you.
                                                                                                                                          W.W.

    Since nobody could answer my cry for help (no you don't find it in the manual) I am entitled to the 10 points finding the solution. Here is how to get around not being able to get a mixer for your aif file you want to edit. When you double click Soundtrack Pro an empty window opens with an empty track 1 and track 2.
    As a seasoned Apple user you think drag and drop the .aif audio file into those tracks you want to edit and use in your movie. Well you are in for a three day search for answers how to get that mixer to open that you want to use! If somebody (or the manual) would just say you can't do that you could have saved that time to do what you need to do!
    In order to get the mixer(s) you need you must:
    1. click on "New Project" on the top left: window opens with both video and audio mixer tracks in which you can drop you audio. You can than open Layouts and choose from 3 layout choices of mixers. Happy panning and mixing.

  • While creating a project in Garage Band my sample tracks were cut short then overwritten in soundtrack pro. Any ideas why? and how to get my tracks back?

    While creating a project in Garage Band 09 my sample tracks were being cut short- I then discovered they had been overwritten in soundtrack pro.
    Any ideas why? and how to get my tracks back?
    I never opened soundtrack pro to edit the track just Garage band....the track just mysteriously saved as half the track.
    I am running Lion and I upgraded my Garage band to '11 hoping it would resolve the issue...it didn't. Now I can't find that tracks at all.
    The 2 songs having the issue are titled Exotic Yearning and Reunion.
    I am in the process of reinstalling the audio content from my discs. I just don't want to run into this again.
    Any thoughts and help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

    After spending some time reinstalling the soundtrack pro 3 content I opened the full track called Reunion.
    It showed back up in Garage Band.*It was the full track and wasn't chopped off until I dragged it onto the project. Then it showed up chopped.
    Then I closed Garaged band and opened soundtrack pro 3....The song was again chopped off at the 1:33min mark
    Very Frusterated...:(

  • Have Soundtrack Pro, how do I "install" loops to FCPx?

    As advised by Apple in 2011 I have FCP7/Studio installed on another startup disk.  I found the Soundtrack Pro audio loops and put them in /Lbrary/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple in the startup disk with FCPx.  When I open up FCPx in the Music & Sound window there are 2 Apple Loops for Soundtrack Pro folders!!  Is this a bug?  Or did I do something wrong?  Should I delete the files in the Apple Loops Index, would that fix things?  I like how finally the Apple for Soundtrack Pro folder is no longer greyed out, but I don't like the extra folder there.
    Also, why is there 2 Final Cut Pro Sound Effects folders, one of them is greyed out.

    I need to get "Soundtrack Pro" inorder to populate the "greyed-out" folders?
    Possibly yes. I bought FCP Studio back in 09. STP was one of the suite applications that came with it (it also came with Logic Pro Studio -- as well as ALL the Jam Packs -- so I effectively bought it twice.)  Since Apple put these apps on the App Store (FCPX/Logic), all the extras you *used to get* aren't there anymore. [You can still purchase Logic Studio from Apple's website store.]
    I've also dragged in 3rd party loops (from siliconbeats.com [they have quite a few free loops available], etc.)
    Also, I really don't know if you even CAN buy STP or the Jam Packs anymore. You can buy Logic Studio and you'll still get STP and all the Jam Pack loops that way... but that's rather expensive for just the loops.
    (*Aria*) -- I don't think the empty STP loops folder is a bug. I think it's there for all of the people who owned previous versions of FCP and had STP installed as part of the suite.
    PS - sorry it took this long - I got cut off due to maintenance last night...

  • How do I export a 2-channel stereo from a Soundtrack Pro master mix?

    I'm using Soundtrack Pro to create a 7-track music mix for a live event in a few weeks. The mixing and balancing of audio levels went fine. But when I exported the project to an AIFF file, the resulting file had 6 channels instead of the normal 2, and its bit rate is 4233 kbps instead of 1411.
    In SP I selected File> Export > Master Mix | AIFF File | 16-bit | 44.1 kHz
    There don't appear to be any options regarding flattening the audio. So how do I create a normal 2-channel stereo AIFF file from my mix?

    Never mind, I figured it out — the problem was that my Submix 1 was marked "1-6" instead of "Stereo 1,2" — problem solved.

  • Sent FCP project to Soundtrack Pro but how do I get it back into FCP?

    Hi everyone,
    I just sent to project from FCP to Soundtrack Pro and now I am wondering how do I send the Soundtrack project back to FCP with the audio adjustments?
    I know this is possible I'm just having a barin ** moment today.
    Thanks

    this is your work flow...
    1 ctrl click on audio> send to soundtrack pro audio file
    2 in soundtrack pro make the neccessary adjustments (noise reduction by any chance?). apply filter
    3 save the soundtrack project...
    when you save the soundtrack project, it automatically swaps the old audio file in FCP for the new 'sent' audio file... you don't have to 'export' from soundtrack to get the audio to FCP...
    You won't actually notice the change in audio in FCP until you save the soundtrack project, and are working back in FCP.

  • Repost from soundtrack pro forum: advice needed on how to master a dj mix.

    i posted the info below on the soundtrack pro forum and someone suggested i use waveburner to master my dj mix after it's been recorded:
    when i record a mix in soundtrack pro, it's 1 long song. sometimes certain parts of the mix come in at a lower volume than other parts because some records or songs aren't as loud as the previous song that it was mixed out of.
    how can i bring up the volume on the lower parts and make them equally as loud as the other songs? or, how do i level out the volume without making the mix sound worse?
    any advice on getting the EQs and other settings right would be appreciated.
    if anything's not clear, please let me know.

    no, i have not. would waveburner be more appropriate for what i want to do post-mix?
    if so, could you elaborate?
    thanks for your response.

  • Soundtrack Pro 2.0.1: stereo level meters in the Meters tab? How?

    I'm using Soundtrack Pro with an M-Audio Firewire 410 to do a live stereo recording. I've created a new audio file project, and I've only got two tracks in the project (left and right channels), but for some reason the Meters tab insists on displaying a 6-channel meter view, instead of stereo meters.
    Page 49 of the Soundtrack Pro 2 user's manual specifically mentions a 2-channel (stereo) meter view (and even includes a screenshot), but I can't figure out how to get this view in my project.
    What am I missing here? Or is this a bug?
    Thanks!
    Scott

    I just went through this and it appears that my Focusrite Saffire was the culprit. I connected all the outputs on the focusrite according to the way the jacsk on the back were labeled and then set up the multichannel speaker setup to match. Then I went into STP, created a pink noise clip and panned it around, the LFE, center and rears were not in the right place.
    I reconnected the hardware to match the 5.1 pan pot in STP then changed the multichannel speaker setup to match. Everything appears to be correct now but I would have loved to have been able to just assigned the output busses to correct outputs in the saffire.
    Next step is to pan that pink noise around with my SPL meter to calibrate the room.

  • How To: Make Beats in LOGIC/Soundtrack Pro - sample is LOOP Adrenaline Loop

    1) What is the best way to make a loops (similar) to the loop e.g. that comes with Logic, Soundtrack Pro that is in the category Rythmatic (Adrenaline Electronic Long (TITLE)), I have used ableton and SX, Nuendo, Acid....just trying to find the easiest way -not knowing the way to work quickly is a bit frustrating....
    2) What key command in logic when double clicked (or key command) will open the aiff file in Sound Track and after editing put back into Logic?
    3) Are there any good books on Logic 8 or on-line video training available yet?
    4) Due to me not having enough space on MBP, I did not install orchestral jam pack - is this why the templates for ORCHESTRAL DO NOT show up in templates? If so, how do I repair.
    5) I forget ? 5 LOL.

    Anyone?
    Thanks.

  • How to bring my valid iMovie into Soundtrack Pro as a multitrack?

    Hello kind people. My most hummed song right now is "I can't get started with you." To my shame, I am unable to bring my valid iMovie into Soundtrack Pro as a multitrack. I have brought the audio alone, but that leaves me grabbing at air. There must be a simple way. Who will tell me how?

    Try exporting a Quicktime movie from iMovie, then drag the quicktime movie onto the video track (or drop it into the video window) in Soundtrack Pro.
