How to make a custom drum track

APPLE, you need to LISTEN.
I want to be able to swiftly and intuitively create a new drum track and simply create every drum stroke for a song.
The current method is COUNTER-INTUITIVE.
There should be multiple ways to do this, but here's the basic method I'd prefer:
1. Create new track
2. Choose drums
3. Launch a substitute "keyboard" that gives you a drum kit and drum sticks
4. Record enable the track
5. Using keyboard commands and/or mouse clicks onto the drum kit, create your track
6. At the bottom of the interface, allow the user to see each drum stroke by time in the track, by drum type, and allow us to move notes around, etc.
*A separate piece of hardware should be invented to help create drum tracks within Logic Pro X.
*Maybe something similar to an X-Box's Kinect feature where we can hold drum sticks and hit the air.
If this 6-step method above already exists, it needs to be added as the first method taught with drums.

APPLE, you need to LISTEN.
Then posting here, is a waste of your time....
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5671
Use the feedback form to make your suggestions to Apple...
https://www.apple.com/feedback/logic-pro.html
But first I would suggest you take the time to learn how to use Logic Pro...
http://help.apple.com/logicpro/mac/10/
...as what you are asking for is quite possible already...
Hint: Use the Musical Typing Keyboard to play/record sounds from one of the Drum Kits provided...for example.. one of the EXS24 kits... and then watch/edit via the Piano Roll....

How to make a custom TableModel for ResultSet

Hi,
I am doing my University Team Project using Java and MySQL what would be the best way to implement a custom TableModel for a JTable that shows the data from the MySQL database.
I've googled it for a couple of hours but all I can really find is examples of how to add static data into the jTable.
The updating of the database through Java works fine, but I would like to show the results in a JTable.
I need help on how to implement a TableModel that uses a ResultSet to populate a JTable.
Any examples of how to make a custom TableModel or links to something that shos me how to do it would be great.
Thanks
Shazan Miah

I've googled it for a couple of hours but all I can really find is examples of how to add static data into the jTable.Then you need more googling practice on picking the appropriate keywords to narrow down a search. Words like "jtable resultset" yielded many hits. Of course I'm partial to the one I suggested that was found in the Swing forum.

How do I make GarageBand 10 Drum Track Longer?

In GarageBand 10, the "Drummer" tool creates drum tracks of a certain length, but that length is shorter than my song.
So how do I generate or modify my Drum Track to be as long as my song?
Thanx!

You can loop the region, or copy and paste the region in the track. By adding several cpoies of the initial region you can modify the settings and vary the pattern - make it softer or more complex, so that the track will not become boring.

How to make a custom form, buttons etc... please...

I mean, how to make a form (for example, JFrame) with arbitrary form (geometry, for ex, round, oval, star like etc). I think you understand what i mean.
Of course, i think i can use winApi, but it's only for windows. It doesn't suit for Java in this problem solution.
That question also about cusomizing form of buttons, fields.. etc..
i think, everything.
What can java allows to cusomize and what not.
Thanx!!

I am just a learner and so i can just suggest you a strategy to implement Customized forms in JAVA. However i am sure that in practice it will work as far as Windows OS are concerned. Here is it:-
The basic IDEA is to declare a native function in JAVA that makes JNI calls which will be further processed by Win32API and processed output will result into an elliptic or any polygonal shaped forms.
To achieve declare some function as follows:
public native void createEllipticalForm(formName formRefrance);
create a Win32 Compiled DLL that manages this function as follows:
(Mindwell, i havent stated what you call as pure-code but just a pseudo-code to the actual implementation)
public native void createEllipticalForm(formName formRefrance)
/* Search for the below stated Functions in Win32 API and work on
them. I see a ray of success if you work with these functions properly.
Further-more I assume that you are aware with concept of HANDLES */
createEllipticRegion(); //WINDOWS.H
showWindow(handleToTheForm); //WINDOWS.H
Search for "createEllipticRegion() or showWindow()" on the GOOGLE to get the pure win32 API Code for Creating Customized Forms.
Reply me in case any of you people get a solution based on my idea.

How do you save customized drum kits as a usable choice in the drum kit setting selection menu

i've loaded samples from my own personal sound banks into the Drag & Drop Samples Kit and i would like to be able to save them as a customized drum kit so that i can select that particular kit when i compose songs in Logic.

Anyway, the overall, larger issue for me is the inability I have to choose and get non-Garageband instruments (largely orchestral) to play the Midi events given on various tracks. If my guess is correct then technically, orchestral instruments not offered in the standard Logic Pro 8 Garageband Mixer channel menu are referred to as external Midi sampled instruments - still, IMHO the process is not clearly spelled out in the User Manual. The simple step by step process whereby a non-Garage band instrument, say an orchestral instrument, is placed in a channel replete with Midi event (notes) waiting to be played should be easy, logical and given in a simple to follow format, but is not.
What with all the talk of routes, busses, auxillary channels, GM devices, GM mixers, audio bins, libraries and audio files this Logic Pro User is confused to the max.
David, you understand that this is professional software and is not necessarily meant to be easy but is in fact designed to give the professional user as many choices as possible, that's why it's in the Pro Apps section. You WILL need to learn about buses, GM Devices, Audio Bins, Libraries...etc..etc if you intend to use Logic.
That said, you are looking in the wrong place in the channel strip.
May I offer you advice?
Go here:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/
Open "Exploring Logic Pro" (a short PDF Document). Pay special attention to chapter 3. Also pay special attention to the included graphics of the channel strips.
I encourage you to read the whole document as it will clear up many things... even though it's a Logic 9 document.

How to make a custom template the default for Apple Mail (10.7.5)?

Hi,
I'm OK with making a new custom template in Apple Mail. It shows up fine once under "custom" in the stationary pane (and once I take off signature in a new email). But... that's a lot of trouble to go through everytime I want to send an email.
So the question is: can I make my custom template my default for all my emails, unless I want to manually change it? Seems like this should be possible but I can't figure it out and haven't run into any solutions (only on how to make a template).
Do I really have to select it each time?
Best,
Joel

As an FYI: I just solved the problem by going the "low road." I'll be a bit laborious in case someone else wants a solution at a later date (I know I Googled the topic and found nothing). I experimented by simply:
Opening a new email message
Selecting my custom template
Copying the custom signature (Select All)
Opening another new email message
Selecting Edit on the Signature pulldown menu
Hitting the plus symbol to create/add a new signature in the pane
Pasting into the new signature
Naming it
Selecting "Choose signature" at the bottom of the signatures pane
And violà!!
It now appears as a possible selection *and* as the default.
Better yet - it is now my default and will work as a reply to an email.
I think I got it all right in the list above.
OK, granted, this is a pretty simply signature - a list of my website, SoundCloud, twitter etc with those names in bold and a graphic of my color logo - but... it works! YMMV.
Give it to Apple to make it so simple that any fool could do it (that would be me), you wouldn't need a "specialized" app, and - of course - there wouldn't even be instructions on how to do it!
Best,
Joel

How to make a custom table?

Ok, so an assignment is due today. I am up to the last part and what you need to do it make a custom graph, I have an iMac (OS X Yosemite) and I need to make a table like the one showed on the image I attached. If you look on the right hand side of the image, you see a row that says "Size" with three custom made columns which says: "Width", "Thickness and "Length". Please tell me, how I can make a custom table like the one below? Thanks.

Select a group of cells, right-click on them and choose Merge Cells from the pop-up menu:
Description, Material and Qty are two cells selected down and merged, Size is three cells selected across and merged.
Hope this helps.

How do you export a drum track to Music XML from Logic Pro

I have a song in Logic Pro with a compound drum track that consists of a Drummer subtract as well as a manually written drum track using the same kit (for specific fills and kicks) as well as a drum line with auxilliary percussion. I kinda figured there was no way to combine the subtracts, so I am OK exporting each to Music XML separately (although if someone knows how to combine, I am all ears). I created a new software instrument using the same drum kit as the Drummer track and options-dragged the Drummer track to the new software instrument to convert it. However, when I view the Score Editor window for ANY of the three drum tracks, it does not come up in drum notation, but in bass cleff. The Style is blank and I don't know how to change it to drums.
I want to export to MusicXML to give my drummer music, so I am exporting this to Musescore.
Does anybody know how to export drum tracks properly? I am using Logic Pro 10.0.7
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the quick response!
I got the Join part, but when I look at the Score view for the song below I don't get the characteristics editor your screenshot shows (see attachment one). However, I can pull this up if I select on the regions in the track I want and select Window -> Score Editor. However, under Style, I can select the pulldown with a bunch of pre-defined options, non-of which are "#Drums". How does one put #Drums into the Style field (see second attachment)?

How to make the custom field enable/disable in ME21n/ME22n/ME23n trans

Hi Experts,
I need help.
I have created one custom field in the transaction ME21n/ME22n/ME23n under customer data 2 tab. But my problem is the field is always in enable (means editable only) even in Display mode. How to make the field is non editable in display mode and editable in change mode.
I have tried by putting some logic to make that field to change alternatively according to change/display button. And it is working fine but if we click any othe button , this field is becoming editable even in display mode.
How to make this field to behave as standard fields?
Please reply me <removed by moderator>
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
Divakar.

If you have BADI implimented for custom tabs then you can do this in method ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST~FIELDSELECTION_ITEM
lv_changeable = im_header->is_changeable( ).
LOOP AT ch_fieldselection ASSIGNING <fs>
    IF lv_changeable IS INITIAL.
      <fs>-fieldstatus = '*'. " Display
    ELSE.
      <fs>-fieldstatus = '+'. " Change
    ENDIF.
endloop.

How to make two mono audio tracks into a stereo pair?

My video clip, brought over into Premiere CS6 from Final Cut Pro 5, has the usual left and right audio tracks, but in Premiere they are not linked into a stereo pair. Thus the volume level has to be adjusted separately in each track.
In Final Cut, I can quickly convert two independent audio tracks into a stero pair by selecting the tracks and then going to the menu Modify > Stereo Pair. I can't figure out how to do this in Premiere.
When two audio tracks are not linked, the volume level has to be adjusted separately in each track, which wastes time. But after two tracks are linked into a Stereo Pair in Final Cut, adjusting either track adjusts them both, together. That's what I want to do now in Premiere.
So, how do I make two separate audio tracks into a linked Stereo Pair in Premiere?

I need to do in my videos that I either can't do in Premiere or that require involved workarounds like this, things that I can do instantly
I used to think like you do. These aren't workarounds, per se. The issue is that Premiere Pro is a different program, so you have to approach some things slightly differently.
Actually, Premiere Pro's audio capability is more like a DAW than Final Cut was, and more powerful too, so if you know that workflow it makes more sense. A lot of FCP people don't have training in programs like ProTools or Audition, so it's more difficult for folks like yourself (and me, too) to catch on. Once you learn it, though, you begin to see its power.
Tom77 wrote:
things that I can do instantly with the flick of a keyboard command in Final Cut, such as link and unlink audio tracks.
In Premiere Pro CC, you can link and unlink audio and video tracks with a keyboard shortcut for "Linked Selection." You have to create it in your Keyboard Shortcuts dialog box, but it works just like the one in FCP. Make it Shift + L if you like.
Tom77 wrote:
Not to mention the fact that I can have as many projects open in Final Cut as I want, and copy and paste between them. Each open project becomes a tab on the timeline, and I can jump beween projects by just clicking on their tabs. I was shocked when I tried to open two projects in Premiere to find that it only allows one at a time to be open. That seems really primitive--
Again, you can achieve what you want (copying and using items from other projects), you just have to go about it differently. All you do is navigate to the other project files in the Media Browser and import items that you need in this fashion. So, no, you don't have more than one project open at a time, but you got what you wanted, stuff from another projects in your current project. That works for me, anyway.
Again, Premiere Pro is a different program. You can achieve the same goals, but sometimes have to go about it differently. Some things are faster, some slower. Some are easier to learn, some harder. Hopefully, you see my point.
I need video generators to make arrows, circles, squares, etc. and transitions such as edge wipes and clock wipes to animate them, all to point out and emphasize things that I'm demonstrating and explaining in my videos. Premiere has no such generators, nor are there any third-party plug-ins available to add them, that I've been able to find.
Do you know about the Titler? It has a lot of useful shapes. You can also create shapes in After Effects and Photoshop and import them. The shapes you make in those programs can look a lot better than the stock FCP effects.
There are lots of third party effects, some that have generators. Check out Boris Continuum, FX Factory, CoreMelt, Film Impact, and more.
There are pitifully few transitions in Premiere at all (the Mac version) compared to Final Cut.
I'm really not a transitions person, and I find the FCP transitions looking tired anyway. The only one I really need is a white flash and I can either create it, or use a third party flash effect. If you need cool, modern transitions, check out Film Impact or the other third party plug in foundries I mentioned. There is an Edge Wipe transition, called "Wipe." If you need feathering, check out the Wipe Effect, which you can keyframe to look like a transition.
More and more I would like to be moving completely into Premiere, but I keep running into these inadequacies in the program, these roadblocks, for my purposes at least.
The more you work with it, the less you'll be working with FCP. That's what most people are saying anyway. Sure, there are minor annoyances associated with learning a new app, but you also take the good along with it. I suggest you just dive right in. It may take longer at first, but you can get your speed up in time.
I have no doubt that sometime in the future Premiere will become everything that I want it to be, and at that time I can finally abandon Final Cut for good, as I wish I could do right now.
I also came from FCP, taught FCP for nearly a decade, wrote a book about FCP, help start the first FCPUG, worked at Apple on two versions of FC Studio, so I do know what you are going through. Just keep at it and keep posting here. I'll be glad to help you with any workarounds or confusion related to moving over from FCP.
Thanks,

How to make Google custom search results appear on a new page?

Anybody got any idea how to make the search results appear on a separate page? I'm using the Google custom search to get generated code to place on my pages, after providing some 'guidance' information on the look and feel of it. Normally, Google will provide you with a few options to choose from to determine how your results will look and by default one would choose the "two page" option whilst going thru the setup process. One page for the search box on your own page and one for the results page.
However, if you don't want a 'google-generated' results page but want the layout that's in line with the look of your site AND have the search box already on there for any repeat searches it becomes more tricky. I tried doing it one way, which I found one a blog tutorial but so far no sucess. The 'search box' code that I inserted onto one of my pages to test didn't show up the search box at all in preview or the live page...
Anybody got any generic code that can be adapted (that they know works) or know of any tutorial that explains how to achieve this? Preferably Google related, as I'm using its custom search.
In addition, I believe that recently Google have deprecated the use of iframe in its search results pages so for anybody that was using an earlier version of this facility it may no longer work properly and hence the solution might have to be modified. Not an expert, so not sure how much this fact will affect the final code, just a thought.
Any ideas/solutions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

hello adrianm12, this should be possible through the metro settings ("search"). also see [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=941292 bug 941292]...

How to make a custom theme a default theme?

Hi gurus,
I want to change the internal default theme to the one I've created but the option to make the custom theme a default theme is greyed out, how do i make it not to be greyed out? I'm using SAP Sourcing 10.0 (Please see attachements)
Your assistance will be highly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Sabelo.

Hello Sabelo,
Hope you can solve your issue by doing these actions:
Shutdown the NetWeaver system
Delete the node folders server0, server1, serverx (/usr/sap/SID/SID/j2ee/cluster)
Start the NetWeaver system
When you start the system it will recreate the node folders and they should be in a synchron state as it loads the complete content out of the database. This means that it will create your custom theme on all nodes.
Best regards

How to make a custom cursor

How do you make a custom Cursor with the Cursor class, so that I can use it in my program.
And also, how do you make a LookAndFeel??

To make a cursor use:
createCustomCursor public Cursor createCustomCursor(Image cursor,
                                 Point hotSpot,
                                 String name)
                          throws IndexOutOfBoundsException, HeadlessException
Creates a new custom cursor object. If the image to display is invalid, the cursor will be hidden
(made completely transparent), and the hotspot will be set to (0, 0). Parameters:hotSpot - the X
and Y of the large cursor's hot spot. The hotSpot values must be less than the Dimension returned
by getBestCursorSize().name - a localized description of the cursor, for Java Accessibility use.
Throws: IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the hotSpot values are outside the bounds of the cursor.

How to make a custom toolbar to put various items in?

Formerly, there used to be an option by which I could add some sort of "custom toolbar" and then add various kinds of buttons into it, like the downloads button, home button, history, save page, etc.
Now when I customise the toolbars (right click on main topbar>Customize), I can only add things in the given bar, which already has an address bar, a search box, and a few extensions.
Please advise on how to make custom toolbars if there's an option I may have missed - possibly misplaced to somewhere else by the update to 29.

If your navigation toolbar is too crowded, right-click an empty area of the tab bar and check "Menu Bar" or "Bookmarks Toolbar", or both. Buttons can also be placed on the tab bar. You can also drag icons you use infrequently into the the ≡ Menu Button panel.
