Is there a way to Disable "Takes" and go back to older way of working

In Logic 7 you could just "Create tracks and mute in cycle record" for audio recording, now we have the new take folder as standard (Logic Pro 8)
Can we disable this function as im not keen on it?

It sounds a bit like some kind of widespread prejudice…
No, that's a bit of a naive statement, imo. I've just had a conversation about this on another forum.
I'm with the OP - I wish the take folder thing could be optionally turned off so we could revert to the old pre-8 behaviour.
I had developed a very fast and efficient workflow over years - for example, while a vocalist was recording takes in cycle mode, I would be splitting, colouring, muting, naming, selecting and rejecting phrases as we went.
This is much faster than doing a bunch of takes, and then comping them afterwards.
Unfortunately, this is now no longer possible in LP8, as you cannot do a "create and mute tracks in cycle record" as you could do before (this option still exists in LP8 for MIDI, but not for audio). At least it was, I haven't looked at it again for a while, but I seem to remember it was the case.
Also, quick swipe comping will not let you nudge segments in time, so you have to do your comping, then move the comp to a flattened file, then split and retime when you need to do this. And you certainly cannot comp or organise your takes while recording.
While there are some nice things about quick swipe comping, it's not a fully developed solution, and at least for me and some others, the newer workflow is *far less efficient* than how we used to do it.
Good reasons for being able to optionally turn take folder management off.
In fact, when people would ask for this take folder method pre-8, I was against the feature. I find having multiple "hidden" tracks on one "real" track (like how some other DAWs did it) a much inferior solution than Logic, which could have multiple tracks all on the same audio object - so everything was visible and directly editable - none of this "choose which take to play" stuff. This was (and still is) a great feature of Logic.

  • Is there a way of working collaboratively on a flex project with a small project group?

    Is there a way of working collaboratively on a flex project with a small project group?
    I am part of a small group of developers who wish to work on a single flex project together. Is there a way to set up flex so that the project can be developed by multiple people at the same time. I have seen one thread out on the internet about working locally and then uploading to SVn but this is not an option in this case.
    Any ideas.
    Many thanks in advance
    Dave

    I would say that rushing into development without a source-control system will cost you more in the long-run. If your organisation is serious about developing software it then it needs to invest in the necesary infrastructure, so you should get that process kicked-off as soon as possible.
    In the interim you could set-up a source control server on one developer's machine or commandeer a spare machine to use as a temporary source control server. Just make sure you have it backed-up regularly. Or you could use one of the online source control services; many will support private repositories for a small fee.

    Is there a way to work with two or more app at the same time on iPhone or iPad?

    What i am attempting to achieve is to work with at least two app at the same time. For example: select any picture from my albums to attach them in an email. Another example is get data from an app to use it with the calc app. And there are more exaples for it. And for sure I need support for an iPad air. I mencioned the other tablet just to try to be a bit clearer.

    Is there any way to work on one Catalog from two computers simultaenously?
    I have a catalog with 7000 images we have to process / crop / etc. and I was trying to find a way that two of us could work on the images at the same time.
    Thanks!

    No, the LR catalog is not multi user capable (and cannot reside on a network share without tricks). What you could do is
    export part of the catalog (a subset of all images) into a separate catalog ("Export as Catalog", without exporting the negatives)
    work on different images in the two catalogs at the same time
    re-import ("Import from Catalog") the exported work after adjustments on it is finished

  • How do I disable Lion and go back to snow leopard

    I up graded to Lion. Now my wireless router can't connect because it doesn't support Lion. I don't want to have to buy a new router.
    Can I disable lion and go back to snow leopard?
    P.S. I am new at computers so be easy on the terminology please.

    It would help if you gave some information on WHY the router isn't working. Start with the basics:
    -What brand and model is the router? If you can get a version number, that is also sometimes helpful. This info is generally printed somewhere on the router, usually a label on the back or bottom.
    -What do you mean by "doesn't support" - did you get this info from the manufacturer, or is this based on you not being able to connect? Routers use standard wireless protocols (called 802.11a/b, g, or n). The network cards in Mac computers also use these same protocols.I can't think of a reason why it shouldn't work.
    -Does your router have a wired connection? If so, can you connect with an Ethernet cable? You may need to be able to connect to the router directly to change settings.
    -How old is your router? And have you ever tried to upgrade the firmware settings on it?
    -Can you connect to ANY wireless routers anywhere else with your Lion computer?
    -Do you have any OTHER computers (Windows or Mac) that can successfully connect to your wireless router?

  • After formatting iPod to NTFS and restoring back with iTunes, the player works for two-three weeks and crashes afterward. It then requests to restore it through iTunes.

    After reformatting iPod to NTFS and restoring back with iTunes, the player works for two-three weeks and crashes afterward. It then requests to restore it through iTunes. When connected to iTunes, it sees it in the restore mode and also asks to restore the iPod. It happens over and over for the last months. What could be the problem?
    iPod Classic 80Gig.
    Thanks in advance.

    Dear planb77
    Thanks for a reply. iPod does not support ntfs - you're right. that means it will never work on that. While restoring ipod using iTunes, itunes reformats it no matter what filesystem is there. So the issue is not that. ipod is now on fat32 and it works for a certain period of time, but then crashes and asks to restore through itunes. Resetting/restarting does not help.

  • How to get rid of new version itunes and go back to older version

    I DO NOT LIKE THE NEW VERSION OF ITUNES
    HOW DO I GET RID OF OT AND GO BACK TO OLDER VERSION

    You can get closer to the old look with ctrl-b to turn on the menu bar and ctrl-s to turn on the sidebar, then select Artists from the selection of views across the top.
    If you still want to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • Is there a way to work on two papers on the one screen.  In windows you drag to the edge and they automatic allow this

    Was wondering if there is a way to work on two papers at the same time.  I'm new to apple and pages.  Windows allows you to drag the paper to the left or right and it automatic makes the necessary room.  Is there a way to do the same thing?

    Harold,
    I can't say how this compares to Word, since I don't use it, but you can open as many document at a time as you wish in Pages. Each will have its own window. Having too many open will slow your system and reduce Macbook battery life.

  • Is there any way to work around administrator passwords to reset?

    I have lost record of my administrator name and password for my iMac. Is there any way around it to reset it? There are multiple users and each time someone tries to log off, it requests administrator rights, forcing a hard shutdown.

    I don't understand why that should be happening. I'm not seeing anything, at least on my 10.6 in SysPrefs>Security, that would account for that.

  • Can I uninstall an update and go back to older the version ?

    hi i have a macbook pro intel and i am using Mac osx 10.5.8, now i have a apple wireless keyboard, recently i just installed the "alluminium keyboard update 2" after which my keypad has stopped responding, i request is some one can offer a help ..... i just want to uninstall this update and go back to the older version .....     

    Hi,
    One simple way would be to completely uninstall your keyboard drivers, updated that they are, and reinstall from scratch, then deny the unwanted updates the right to install.
    Another way is to get details about the culprit by using Terminal and typing the following commands:
    grep swupd /etc/swupd/com.apple.server.swupdate.plist > ~/Desktop/update_list.txt
    (This will get you a list of software updates you've installed on you Mac, in text format, directly on your Desktop)
    Then:
    sudo rm -rf /usr/share/swupd/html/xxx-xxxx/
    (Where "xxx-xxxx" stands for the actual update number you want to delete)
    You'll have to reboot your Mac, and hope that the rollback that will ensue will take place without a glitch. You may find your keyboard unresponsive at first, time for the system to fetch the old driver back from it was stored.

  • I purchased IPod touch for grandson and he has screwed up his ICloud and cannot remember email or password used to do the original setup. Now receiving message that no more ICloud accounts are available for this unit. Is there a way to work through this?

    Grandson and friend just reset system several times and now neither can remember which email account or password was used to set up the ICloud account. I try to set up the account for him again and receive the message that no more accounts are available. I cannot reset because just like them, I don't know what they used. Surely, there must be some way to wipe out their settings and start fresh again?

    Just connect to itunes and restore the ipod, when the restore is complete set it as a new ipod. Your problem must be resolved.

Nothing! Help!
