How to play wav files with Garageband/Midi keyboard

Hello,
I'm using Garagband (on my MAC, not iPad) and a midi keyboard for making songs. I just got a couple of cd's from Miroslav Philharmonik, but the sounds are all in standalone WAV files. There is no installation required. How can i use these sounds with Garageband? Must i copy/paste them in a specified directory on the HD? Or is a sample library necessary? I tried drag and drop, but that dind't work out...
Thanx in advance for your help.

this should help:
import com.ms.win32.*;
public void play()
          try
          URL url = new URL("file","C:\\","Hallo.wav");
          String wav= new String(url.getHost()+url.getFile());
          Winmm.PlaySound(wav,1,1);
          catch(MalformedURLException e)
or something like this ;))

    Maybe. First, what is the URL for a .wav file you're trying to play in Safari? I want to test this before I say whether or not it will work.

  • How to play .wav file from url in iphone.

    We are using callfire API for in our iPhone application(Hybrid application build using sencha and phonegap). The concept of the app is to show the recorded calls in a list and on click of any call in the list it will play the recorded audio file(.wav format). Now the problem is that we are not able to play that file in our Application. We also tried to play that URL directly on iPhone browser but it also didn't worked.
    Here is one of the URL of audio file formathttps://www.callfire.com/cloud/1/files/recording/dynamic/864c81f4a8e6a898042cb47 251ca1c85/2012/8/6065312/cid_1319779221_1.wav
    When we put this audio file in our server and tried to play it our Application, it worked perfectly.
    Can you please tell us what is the reason behind this?
    We are using iPhone 3 with software version 6.0 for testing.

  • How to play flv-files with Flashplayer

    Hello,
    I encoded avi's getting flash 8 flv's; I used Adobe Première Pro CS3 and Adobe Flash Encoder as well.
    I would like to play these flv's with Flashplayer 8; how should I proceed?
    With the VLC-player 0-8-6c the flv's are displayed nicely.
    Thank you very much,
    Marc

    Flash video is played in a browser with the Flash plug-in installed. The video needs to be authored in Flash where a player interface is created. The video is either embedded in a web page or linked to the page. The player interface is downloaded with the video from the host.

  • How to play .VOB files with QuickTime?

    I get an "Error opening file" message trying to play a VTS014.VOB file. This is a file of home movies scanned to the above file. I use Pro (QuickTime™ Version 7.1.6, Player Version 7.1.6) with the mpeg-2 addition and went through the process identifying QuickTime as the default player in "Get Info".
    I can watch with iDVD and something else called VLC Media Player. I want to be able to pull off segments for other applications like making an DVD with just parts of the full file.
    Thanks for your help.

    The mpeg2playbackcomponent will not play mpeg2 files that are in transport stream format, as the VTS in the file name you cite suggests. There is, however, a freeware that can use the playback component and read transport streams. It also will do some simple editing of vob files and save them without re-encoding, or export them to non-mpeg form such as DVStream for use in apps like iMovie.

  • How to play .wmv file with a MSS1 stream encoded?

    I found a bunch of old tutorials on my HD and tried to play them. QT gave me an error message about not having a codec. VLC also couldn't play them. I was able to open the files in QT and do a 'get info'. That's where I found the MSS1 info. Anyone have any ideas about this one?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Interesting, but any idea how to play them w/in QT?
    Believe it would take a 5-8 year old player (WMV or third-party) to support the WMV 7 Screen format. My WMV experience doesn't go back that far so I am not even sure it was ever supported on the Mac. Believe Flip4Mac assumed support of WMV four years after the codec was initially released and it doesn't list MSS1 as being supported at this time. Would probably be easier to see if any old Windows users might have a compatible application and convert the files on the Windows machine.

  • How to play .wav file from URL in web browser embed

    Hi;
    I want to play a .wav sound file in embed default media player in IE. Sound file is on some HTTP location. I am unable to sound it in that player.

  • Play wav file on PDA using JMF

    Hi all,
    I need to play wav files on a PDA so I installed J9 on the PDA and downloaded either JMF crossplatform and JMF for windows (version jmf 2.1.1.e for both of them).
    I included in the classpath the jmf.jar from JMF crossplatform and sound.jar from JMF for windows (the JMF crossplatform doesn't have the sound.jar and jmf.jar requires some classes contained in it).
    When I run my testing application I have such an error:
    Unable to handle format: LINEAR, 8000.0 Hz, 8-bit, Mono, Unsigned, 8000.0 frame rate, Framesize=8 bits
    Failed to prefetch: com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine@287a287a
    Error: Unable to prefetch com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine@287a287a
    I have the same error playing wav files with different features (8 or 16KHz, 8 or 16 bits ).
    Can anyone help me?
    Any suggestion is welcome. Thanks in advance!

    not really I have seen it. The only buyable version left is IBM j9. All the rest basically are sold to handset manufacturers.
    Its hectic out there. I still cant play audio on J9 to build a simple tourist guide!!!!
    javajoom is for wtk21 - hello its 2007.
    Oh well lets toss pda's out of the window along with Microsoft's OS and use smart phone OS - or should I toss J2me and start on C# to be on the safe side???
    Has anyone an answer?
