Instrument i/o

Hello guys,
i'm working with LabView 7.1 and want to read out of measured values (pressure) by an AD-converter (source is a pressure gage).
I read my RS232 with the tool Visa.
My problem is, that display unit of measurement (mmHg/psi) and not my measured values in the graph or table.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks.

Hello,
i get information from the serial port, but these are the unit of the pressure measurement "mmHg incidents psi".
I need the measurement values but these exist only in string and so, I thought, that i must change in DBL to show them in the graph.
It's right?

  • Loops and certain instruments won't download properly

    The loops won't don't download as well as certain instruments.  Any help?

    This is the WMP plugin: np-mswmp , so you have it.
    You may be missing a codec to play that content or some extension or security software is blocking that content.

  • How can I re-index the instrument library?

    I've got a few instruments playing just fine in GarageBand, but only as tones in Logic. I suspect that if I re-indexed the library it might solve the problem. But for the life of me I can't remember how to index the libraries in Logic.
    All instruments have been installed on the operating system hard drive. I haven't moved a single thing since installation. Only a few instruments are showing up as tones - but they DO play in GarageBand.
    All ears...

    (It's improbable, but I think Pancenter may have misread you & thinks you are in GarageBand; but perhaps I am wrong & it is I who has misunderstood. Or, more likely, he does understand that you are in Logic, & is saying that if you were to use GarageBand then you would be using mini-EXS… although if so, you had of course said the same thing yourself, earlier on.)
    Anyway: I take it you mean that you are in Logic, but are selecting sounds from the 'Garageband' sub-menu.
    +"There is no obvious evidence that it is being played through the EXS."+ If you look at the Track icon in the Arrange window it will tell you that this is so, & the Channel Strip to the left will have a plug-in insert marked "EXS24". So that's how you can check. Double-clicking on that plug-in is also a quick way to open your Software Instrument of choice so that you can access all the available sounds directly (& edit them if required).
    +"Who knows what is actually playing the instrument when I go direct through the I/O to 'Garageband'."+
    You do, by looking at the name of the insert!

  • Very slow load times on EXS24 instruments?

    Hi everyone - I have a troublesome problem..
    At the moment this only seems to happen garage band instruments loaded in exs24
    When I try to load instruments from garageband i get to enjoy the spinning wheel and about 3 minutes of load time [and this wouldnt be the first stime i would have loaded the instrument]
    When it does finally cease spinning it asks me to choose between the garage band samples, or dupe sampler files in self contained projects.
    I always pick the garageband directory..
    Is there a way to decrease the loading time?

    This tends to happen when you have more than one copy of the EXS sample on your drive network. As soon as EXS sees two of a sample, especially if there is no existing direct link in the EXS instrument, it will tend to scan your whole system for any and all potential duplicates. This can take a while.
    My only suggestion is delete the duplicate samples and make sure your instruments all contain path links to the appropriate samples. Bear in mind that if you store samples in the project folder, at least those should be found quickly, but it will not solve the problem of loading new patches into the project.
    To be able to find and get rid of duplicate samples and re-establish the links in a batch fashion, I highly reccommend EXS manager by Redmatica.

  • Recording Stand-alone Soft Synths & Virtual Instruments in Audition 3

    Hi People,
    Have a little problem which I'm struggling to figure out.
    I have been using Cool Edit Pro for several years. My set up has always enabled me to record any standalone Software Synths via my sound card. I have always had it set up so my sound card plays through patch one and records through another patch enabling me to record in the multi track editor with no problems at all and my set up records only the soft synth/instrument, and not any waves previously recoded. Instead just plays them back so I can build up my music and play along at any given time. Although this is a rather different approach to doing things, it suites me down to the ground and I'm happy to create this way
    My problem has come upon whilst trying out the new Adobe Audition 3, which is based around ASIO Drivers. Because of this I can no longer run another program (Stand alone soft synth), because Adobe hogs the ASIO driver and will not allow another program to be run at the same time. I can use the Adobe windows driver for audition no problems and I am able to continue recording how I did with Cool Edit, but I would much prefer to go along with auditions ASIO drivers to make sure I am recording with the best quality and reliability.
    My Sound card is an E-MU 1616 with breakout box. I have tried numerous ways with the patch mixer to get around this, for example I have tried using my sound cards driver for audition and ASIO4ALL2 for my soft synths. One of which is Hypersonic 2, and the other being SampleTank. I cannot for the life of me get my set up and running how it was with cool edit.
    I must admit that although I have played around with my settings, it could be something simple I need to do that just hasn't jumped out at me yet. My evaluation of Audition 3 runs out in 20 days and I'm almost sure that there is a way to enable my set up to work how I want it to before I can go out and buy Audition 3. I'm very comfortable with audition 3, naturally. I love the changes and extra features it has now along from the cool edit days.
    I have looked into other solutions as well after scouring message boards, one of which was Cycling 74 Soundflower, this sounded like it could be an answer but unfortunately it is Mac only. If Adobe did Audition for Mac then I wouldn't hesitate in going down that route...
    My other solution is to have a second computer, either a modified mid range P C, or even a Mac, to act as my synth station and have my various software synths and such running on there and playing out to my recording PC with Audition on. This would free up the ASIO to be used by Audition solely. It's a long way around but wouldn't cost the earth and would be a simple enough idea to set up. But surly, I shouldn't need to go this far out to get my ideal setup.
    Anyhow, I would much appreciate any advice and ideas to help me solve this problem; I will keep working at it in the mean time.
    Hope my explanation makes sense above, I can appreciate that there are other ways like just going along with another program and such, but in all honesty I like the way I work and don't really want to move on, I'm more bothered about just getting on and recording new ideas in the environment I'm so use to. I love the way Cool Edit/Audition works for me and I have developed my own methods with the software over the years. Working with just audio suits me to the ground as I record and chop up my own Guitar bass and drums, along with sounds from my field recorder and a host of other methods and ideas.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi!
    As long as your softsynths comes in the VSTi format (most of them do now), you can insert it on a track in Audition, which has 'host' capabilities from V3.
    In the Multitrack, insert a new MIDI track from the 'Insert' menu (note: MIDI Track, not just 'MIDI').
    On that track pane hit the 'Sequencer' button, and it will open in a separate window. In the pane left of the keyboard you can insert your VSTi of choice, and make your MIDI connections.
    Back on the Main track pane, engage the 'L' button for Live monitoring. Actual recording (of MIDI) is done in the Sequencer window.
    The usual, and recommended workflow is to keep the MIDI tracks 'open', i.e. you can edit the sound in your instrument and even the notes played at any time in the process, compiling the actual audio as the last step in the mixing.
    If you kind of 'insist' on doing it the old way, you can export the audio from your recorded MIDI+VSTi creations track by track like this: Leave the Sequencer window open, make a selection in the multitrack that covers the time span you have played. Solo the track (will mute all others), and use File / Export Audio Mixdown. Use 'Master' as the source. This will give you a wave rendering of what's currently in the MIDI sequencer. Qualitywise this is better since it's all internal and digital instead of in/out of soundcards with DA/AD conversion etc.
    I haven't found a method for a 'live' wave recording while you play, but there may be one...
    If you purchase Audition it comes with Help files explaining this in more/better detail. ;)

  • I tried to add sf2 instruments.  I put them in the audio/banks file but they do not show up in the DSL instruments on Garage Band.  Why not?

    How can I get sf2 intruments that I've downloaded to use in my GarageBand?  I have downloaded them and have put them both in the GarageBand instruments folder and the Audio/Banks folder of my Library, but they do not show up in GarageBand on the DSL instruments as they should.  I have some instruments in that category that I must have put in before, but can't find them in the audio/banks folder or the GarageBand instruments folder and cannot locate them with a my computer finder anywhere.  They are listed in the DSL instruments on GarageBand when I open the program.  Is there another library that this version of GarageBand can be using??  I have GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.4)d, which was updated a while back.  I had the previous version of GarageBand with a diffent system quite a bit earlier.  I've look in the "previous system" folder as well, and cannot find the instruments, or an audio/banks folder at all.

    Mortimer,  iTunes does not know when you restore a file.  After you restore the file, you need to re-add the file to iTunes.
    If you know exactly which files you restores, re-add them using File > Add File to LIbrary.
    Otherwise, lre-add the folders.  iTunes has certain safeguards to reduce duplicates when you do this, which are not perfect but are better than nothing.  Start with a few small folders and see if you are happy with the results.

  • What connectors do I need for my ipad so I can connect it to my apogee duet 2 interface essentially using the ipad as an instrument utilizing a few of the synth and drum machine apps to record tracks into Logic on my Mac?

    Ok, so I completely feel like this is a stupid question for those of you already in the know and recording tracks onto your Computers DAW from instrument apps on the iPad and other i devices. I can not seem to find out exactly what connector or unit I need to be able to connect and use my ipad as a instrument to record tracks onto logic. I have an ipad2 that I want to connect to my apogee duet 2 interface which is obviously connected to my Mac. I know Logic comes with plenty of drum and synth options but I still want to be able to use beatmaker, jam up pro and the sunrizer synth apps on some of my tracks. I do have the camera conversion adaptors. So my question is, do I just run from the camera adapter in the ipad into the midi port on my apogee interface? (I'm new to and still learning about midi) Or is there a special 30 pin cable I need to get that runs from the ipad into the XLR or quarter inch in the break out cables on the apogee? I did find one cord out there that plugged into the ipad and had left and right XLR connectors but my duets break out cable only has two inputs each is their own channel. Also , if the cable I need isn't midi  and does connect to the breakout cables, do I set it as an instrument or as a mic in the apogee software? Or am I completely way off base and needing something different all together. Any help would be much appreciated!
    I have a fare amount of experience when it comes to recording, set up and the flow of standard instruments, using external hardware and plugins. But the last few weeks I spent a lot of time programming some great beats in beatmaker on my ipad and I want to track them into Logic. It seemed like no matter how I worded the questions when researching what I thought was and should be simple to figure it out, it just took me to answers I wasn't looking for. Thank you ahead of time. Like I said I'm just starting to get out of my comfort zone and learn about midi and the more digital side of things. So sorry about any ignorance concerning that side of things.

    The new Apogee Duet for iPad and Mac, is compaible with iOS devices and includes a USB Midi input. This sounds like the perfect solution for your workflow.

  • How do I get more instruments in Logic Pro?

    When I was installing Logic Pro 9, I think it offered me to download extra instruments...I clicked ''no'' or something like that. I'd like to get those instruments now so I was wondering in anyone could help me. I think this is why my brother has more instruments than me...

  • Save Instruments In Logic 8?

    Okay, so I'm kinda new to Logic and was wondering how to save instruments like in Garageband. I am not sure and I really need to know. If you don't understand what I'm saying then here it is: I want to open up the orchestral strings instrument then edit its EQ and such, then when I have what I want, I need to save it with the other pre-made instruments for easy access. You can do this in Garageband with ease but not with Logic. Someone please help!

    You can do this in Garageband with ease but not with Logic.
    You mean "I don't know how to do it in Logic", not "You cannot do it with ease in Logic".
    Either use the menus at the top of the instrument/plugin to save it's setting (this saves one plugin's setting, and you can organise these as you wish), or you can save the complete channel strip as a channel strip setting, which is the instrument, and all plugins with all their settings) from the channel strip settings menu.

  • GarageBand instruments in Logic 8

    In GarageBand I have access to a lot of instruments that I can find in my Logic Pro 8's Media - Library. Is there a way to add them?
    Thanks!

    In Logic's GUI, in the Inspector there a box labeled I/O called the Instrument Slot. If you click this it will open up a list of all validated AU plugins. In this list, you'll see GarageBand Instruments.

  • Missing Instruments in Loops

    I am using Soundtrack Pro in Final Cut Studio 2. The instruments are missing from my loops. It seems the other sound effects and music cues are present (although, I've never seen a list of what, precisely is supposed to be included -- anyone know?).
    I have done a search of my hard drive. I've combed through the Apple Loops folder. I've searched for "piano" and "cello" -- I've done a search of .caf files (apple loops). I am pretty convinced the instruments aren't on my hard drive.
    In a search of this forum, someone spoke of "indexing"; but first gave the advice to return to "setup". That is a little vague for me --(both "indexing" and "setup") -- can anyone give me some instruction on how to use "setup" to try to add the loop files that didn't seem to make it onto my harddrive, during installation of Studio 2? And then how do I "index", if necessary? Thanks much.

    Afaik, there's no instruments coming with Soundtrack Pro, only SFXs and Music Beds. The instruments are coming from Garage Band and/or Logic. However, if you didn't uninstall Garage Band, you should have them on your hard drive. If you don't see any instruments in your STP search tab, it's probably because they're not indexed. To index them, go to the Search tab, in the lower-right and click on the Setup... button. A new window will open. Once there, click on the + button and navigate to that folder: Library/Audio/Apple Loops. Select the folder "Apple Loops for Garage Band". STP should then index that folder.

  • Share instrument in loops

    Hi,
    I'm wondering if there's a way to share an instrument panel within multiple loops/cases in labview? Basically I'm trying to get an IV chart based on the test the user selects, the only way I can correctly get this to work is have an individual graph within each case. Obviously this is not ideal as it would require numerous charts on the instrument panel. I know there must be an easier way to do this but can't figure out how. Right now I only have an instrument for case 1 and have left the other 4 cases unwired for testing purposes.
    Thanks,
    Konrad

    So basically the event would push the data out of the loop if the values changed? Would the loop then continue until complete?
    Konrad
    The loop would be your main loop, taking measurements and/or reacting to UI changes until you close the program. Which would land in one of 3 designs (requiring more or less modifications to the current code):
    State machine
    Event driven program
    Producer/consumer
    I've come to like the producer/consumer a lot lately, though it's also the biggest modification. The 2 other ones can be quite similar, in the state machine the state is the main controlling information, and in 1 state (idle) you can have an event structure handling stuff. In the other case it's the other way around, the Event structure is the main controller and in the timeout or user event case you'll do your measurements.
    In all designs you should have information going through the program in shift registers in the main loop so you can access it and avoid unnecessary controls/indicators/data copies and keep a good wired flow.
    In this case i'd try the State Machine, with an type-defed Enum for states it's easy to expand and keep code modular. The states structure can be direct-, array-, queue- or event-based, but i think the direct form will be good enough, it's rather easy to change to one of the others, should it be needed.

  • Creating and Saving My Own Midi Loops/Instrument

    I know how to create a new instrument in GB but can I also create and save midi loops that are attached to the instrument and save them in the loop browser? The same way other midi parts work so when you drag the midi out of the loop browser and into your session it loads both the part and the instrument at the same time?

  • Question about Midi loops and Software Instruments

    In past versions of Garage Band, I could take a Midi loop ("the green ones") and drag it onto a track with a different instrument and it would play with that instrument. For example, I could drag a loop of a piano melody onto a guitar track, and the melody would play on the guitar. In '08 though, if I drag the piano melody onto the guitar track, it changes the instrument for that track to the loop's instrument, in this case the piano. Is there any way to switch this function off? I find nothing in the preferences.
    It's getting really annoying constantly dragging out loops and changing instruments to what I intend to have.

    not to dissuade you from trying, you could always find something that i missed, but i did test the modifier keys, none changed anything (and the shiftKey prevented a drag from occurring at all)
    as i recall, no matter what i did, dropping into a blank track changed it, dropping into a track that already had a region in it tossed up a warning dialogBox (i think it allowed you to proceed, automatically create a new track, or cancel the operation)
    this does seem like a behavior that should have a toggle in prefs
