How to use Synth

Hi, I'm trying use Synth Look And Feel, the featurue of 1.5. I read Synth File Format document (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/swing/plaf/synth/doc-files/synthFileFormat.html) and Scott Violets article on javadesktop.org (http://www.javadesktop.org/articles/synth/index.html). I still don't know how to configure Synth Look And Feel for JButton with another images in normal and pressed state. Can somebody help me? Thank you!

Hi,
what u do is this:
  <style id="button">
    <state value="DEFAULT">
      <imagePainter path="Synth/testdown.png" sourceInsets="6 6 6 6" paintCenter="false" stretch="true"/>
      <color value="#3333FF" type="TEXT_FOREGROUND"/>
    </state> 
    <state value="SELECTED">
      <imagePainter path="Synth/test.png" sourceInsets="6 6 6 6" paintCenter="false" stretch="true"/>
      <color value="#0000FF" type="TEXT_FOREGROUND"/>
      </state>
    <state value="PRESSED">
      <color value="#0000FF" type="TEXT_FOREGROUND"/>
      <imagePainter path="Synth/test.png" sourceInsets="6 6 6 6" paintCenter="true" stretch="true"/>
    </state>
  </style>
  <bind style="button" type="region" key="BUTTON"/>the <bind> element applys the style 2 the object (JButton). It's actually a region, u can get all the regions at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/swing/plaf/synth/Region.html
good luck!

  • How to use the Arpeggiator with Software Synths

    I recently bougth Logic Pro 7.2 and it took me a while to find out how to get the soft synths to work. At the moment I am only using the computer keyboard to play in the notes and it works well so far.
    If you want to activate a soft synth, choose an audio instrument and select your synth from the i/o on the left column in the arranger. Then turn on your caps key and start playing and press record and thats it. I now what to use the Arpeggiator with the soft synths. What do I do?

    If you type "arpeggiator" (without the quotes) into the search field over on the right, you'll turn up a ton of threads with all the info you could ever need about how to use Logic's arpeggiators.
    Inshort hand - create an arpeggiator object in the environment, cable it to the soft synth you want to use, and select the arpeggiator object you created on an arrange track. The notes you play/record will be sent through the arpeggiator to generate the arpeggiated notes, and on to trigger the synth you cabled it to.

  • How do i use synths?

    i know it must sounds stupid but im used to using cubase and in that you just need to choose the output of your midi track to a synth and bingo. but i want to learn how to use the plugins in logic pro and every tutorial i read never seems to help and i just need an easy to understand step-by-step to how to get a synth up. (not including the quicktime one lol)

    1. highlight an audio instrument (midi) track, "Inst 1" for example, by clicking on it.
    2. in the area to the left of the arrange window (where the tracks are shown): click-hold the grey button located directly above the button that says "Output1-2" by default.
    3. up comes a menu, choose: Stereo > Logic > ES2 (or whatever synth you want to use).
    4. now you should be able to play/record/insert notes from that synth, if you don't have a midi keyboard you can on play your computer's keyboard by pressing caps-lock.

  • Any SB Audigy 2 ZS owners out there know how to load Synth A &

    Any SB Audigy 2 ZS?owners out there know how to load Synth A & B ?
    Mine is a OEM Version (for [url="http://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?p=2960574#">HP[/url]) I got used for $40, didn't know it was until I had trouble installing driver,s but that's now resolved. Mine is model SB0359 but tag says Audigy 2 ZS and SB0350, but without MIDI port and 394 port. A real A2ZS is SB0350. 24/96 recording and playback.
    Everything is working great, 2 ms latency recording on some quick testing.
    BUT the Soundbank Manager doesn't seem to want to load any SF2 into Synth A or B , so I can use them in my sequencer (JAZZ++) for playback, and REAPER for recording (eventually). I don't want to be locked into the default [url="http://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?p=2960574#">Windows[/url] GM sounds. At least in REAPER, I can use a VST approach and connect a SF, but I only want MIDI for Drums and maybe some Pads, in spots. I do have a MIDI bassline, but that will be re-done with real bass guitar.
    Maybe because I don't have a physical MIDI port on the OEM version, the program isn't functiing properly (guess)
    Is there another way to load the Synths ? Manual scripts ... via INI ?

    REAPER:
    As it's an OEM card, it's possible that MIDI features are ripped. Have you tried by installing nati've software by tweaking the installer?
    You find the original CD and instructions on how to patch the installed by searching here using "BadBoy" for CD and "ctcomp" for patching (as for an example).
    - on Options/Preferences/Audio/MIDI Devices, select synths A/B
    - create new track
    - on track I/O config, set MIDI Hardware output to Audigy Synth A or B and on Audio Hardware outputs, add a new one as stereo Left/Right
    - on track Monitoring options, enablethe monitoring
    - set the SF bank (Do not use big ones but those bundled ones beford getting everything working ... there are some size limitations)
    Remember also that drums are on MIDI channel 0.
    Hope this helps you to start ... (I don't have SoundFont Bank Manager installed so I can't try if this works).

  • Can't figure out how to use home sharing

    Since the latest couple iTunes updates, my family and I can not figure out how to use home sharing. Everyone in our household has their own iTunes, and for a long time we would just share our music through home sharing. But with the updates, so much has changed that we can no longer figure out how to use it.
    I have a lot of purchased albums on another laptop in the house, that im trying to move it all over to my own iTunes, and I have spent a long time searching the internet, and everything. And I just can't figure out how to do it. So.... how does it work now? I would really like to get these albums from my moms iTunes, onto mine. I would hate to have to buy them all over again.
    If anyone is able to help me out here, that would be great! Thanks!

    The problem im having is that after I am in another library through home sharing, I can't figure out how to select an album and import it to my library. They used to have it set up so that you just highlight all of the songs you want, and then all you had to do was click import. Now I don't even see an import button, or anything else like it. So im lost... I don't know if it's something im doing wrong, or if our home sharing system just isn't working properly.
    Thanks for the help.

    Batch processing usually involves using actions you have recorded.  In Action you can insert Path that can be used during processing documents.  Path have some size so you may want to only process document that have the same size.  Look in the Actions Palette fly-out menu for insert path.  It inserts|records the current document work path into the action being worked on and when the action is played it inserts the path into the document as the current work path..

  • How to use airport time capsule with multiple computers?

    I'm sure there are some thread about this but i couldn't find it... so sorry for that but hear me out! =)
    I bought the AirPort Time Capsule to back up my MBP
    And so i did.
    then i thought "let give this one a fresh start" so i erased all of it with the disk utility and re-installed the MBP from the recovery disk.
    I dont want all of the stuff i backed up just a few files and some pictures so i brought that back.. so far so good.
    Now i want to do a new back up of my MBP so i open time machine settings, pick the drive on the time capsule and then "Choose" i wait for the beck up to begin, and then it fails.  It says (sorry for my bad english, im swedish haha) "the mount /Volume/Data-1/StiflersMBP.sparsebundle is already in use for back up.
    this is what i want:
    i want the "StiflersMBP.sparsebundle" to just be so i can get some stuf when i need them. it's never to be erased.
    i want to make a new back up of my MBP as if it's a second computer...
    so guys and girls, what is the easiest and best solution?
    Best regards!

    TM does not work like that.
    If you want files to use later.. do not use TM.
    Or do not use TM to the same location. Plug a USB drive into the computer and use that as the target for the permanent backup.
    Read some details of how TM works so you understand what it will do.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Works.html
    Use a clone or different software for a permanent backup.

  • ** How to use TO_DATE function in Stored Proc. for JDBC in ABAP-XSL mapping

    Hi friends,
    I use ABAP-XSL mapping to insert records in Oracle table. My Sender is File and receiver is JDBC. We use Oracle 10g database. All fields in table are VARCHAR2 except one field; this is having type 'DATE'.
    I use Stored procedure to update the records in table. I have converted my string into date using the Oracle TO_DATE function. But, when I use this format, it throws an error in the Receiver CC. (But, the message is processed successfully in SXMB_MONI).
    The input format I formed like below:
    <X_EMP_START_DT hasQuot="No" isInput="1" type="DATE">
    Value in Payload is like below.
    <X_EMP_START_DT hasQuot="No" isInput="1" type="DATE">TO_DATE('18-11-1991','DD-MM-YYYY')</X_EMP_START_DT>
    Error in CC comes as below:
    Error processing request in sax parser: Error when executing statement for table/stored proc. 'SP_EMP_DETAILS' (structure 'STATEMENT'): java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "TO_DATE('18"
    Friends, I have tried, but unable to find the correct solution to insert.
    Kindly help me to solve this issue.
    Kind Regards,
    Jegathees P.
    (But, the same is working fine if we use direct method in ABAP-XSL ie. not thru Stored Procedure)

    Hi Sinha,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I used the syntax
    <xsl:call-template name="date:format-date">
       <xsl:with-param name="date-time" select="string" />
       <xsl:with-param name="pattern" select="string" />
    </xsl:call-template>
    in my Abap XSL.  But, its not working correctly. The problem is 'href' function to import "date.xsl" in my XSLT is not able to do that. The system throws an error. Moreover, it is not able to write the command 'extension-element-prefixes' in my <xsl:stylesheet namespace>
    May be I am not able to understand how to use this.
    Anyway, I solved this problem by handling date conversion inside Oracle Stored Procedure. Now, its working fine.
    Thank you.
