Keystrokes: How to Lock & unlock all tracks/ How to canvas fill the monitor

At a stroke, what's the way to lock & unlock tracks? Then how to make canvas huge, and back again to Arrange>Standard?
Thanks!
Todd

Lock/unlock a video track by pressing F4 + the track number;
Lock/unlock an audio track by pressing F5 + the track number.
Lock/unlock all video tracks: shift/F4
Lock/unlock all audio tracks: shift/F5
To make a canvas huge, just drag the window as big as you want to, and save a new window arrangement. Control-U will bring your windows back to the standard layout.
A good list of FCP shortcuts can be found here:

  • How to export all tracks into audio files with the same duration

    Hi everybody.
    I am trying to export all the tracks into different audio files.
    It's 10 soft. instruments and an audio track. I tried with "File>Export>All Tracks as Audio File but the result is 11 audio files with different lengths. As the song is 3 minutes and 20 seconds I would like every single track to be 3.22 sec long.
    How do I do it? In fact, each track is composed not only by played instruments but also by moments of silence.
    Thanks!!

    The files are different lengths because each instrument does not stop playing at the same moment. It would accomplish nothing other than waste disk space if Logic appended silence to the end of each file in order to make each track the same length. The different lengths you see mean nothing because the absence of appended silence means nothing.
    each track is composed not only by played instruments but also by moments of silence.
    Naturally. And that silence is accounted for in your exported files, when the silence appears at the beginning of the track, and when it appears during the track. It just isn't appended at the end because that would be pointless. Consider this project, consisting of four tracks:
    When I use the command File > Export > All Tracks as Audio Files, Logic will produce four files that look like this:
    The files are not equal in length, which is perfectly fine. What's important is that they all start at bar 1, and will align properly when imported into some other program. So all you need is the command you already used: File > Export > All Tracks as Audio Files. In one step, it will produce all the files you need, and it will produce them correctly.
    By using Bounce, you would be gaining nothing except extra work, because you would have to do it separately for each file you wanted to produce. With Export > All Tracks as Audio Files, you get all your files with just one command.

    exporting tracks means that any panning or automation will not be rendered. So if you want the engineer to put up all of your tracks at unity gain (all faders at zero) and have your tracks & stems reproduce the mix you're hearing at your studio, use bounce, not export.
    If you want to have your tracks & stems reproduce the mix you're hearing at your studio, there's no need to go to the extra effort of using Bounce instead of Export. You only need to enable (in the Export dialog) the checkbox "Include Volume/Pan Automation." This is explained on p. 1022. When you do this, any panning or automation will indeed be rendered.

  • How to turn off the Monitor???

    Hey friends!
    Is it possible to turn the Monitor (Display Device) ON and OFF from a java application???
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi! This is completely Windows-specific, and I found it on a website, so I don't take credit for it. Hopefully you do know how to use JNI, so here's the C code you could try out (no I haven't tried it yet).
    JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_JNative_turnOffMonitor (JNIEnv *env, jclass cls)
        SendMessage (HWND_BROADCAST, WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_MONITORPOWER, 2);
    }2 turns off the monitor, HWND_BROADCAST sends the message to all top-level windows, 1 sets the monitor to low power and -1 switches the monitor back on. Please use at own risk, and you'll probably want to have some more error handling in your code if you do plan to use it. You will need to include windows.h and user32.lib (unless you are dynamically linking) for the code to compile.
    Hope it helps.
    Cheers
    P.S. Here's the website I found it in (note, the code's in Delphi, so I just took the API calls, and modified the first parameter to HWND_BROADCAST). http://chiragdalal.tripod.com/howto/monitor_on_off.html

  • How can i fill the iTunes Connect ITIN?

    Hi,
    i am trying to sell the book on iBookstore but i can't find tge way how can i fill the ITIN on form.
    i am living in istanbul.
    i am non-US person.
    Any idea?
    Any help?
    Thanks.

    You would need to try to contact support for content providers, the standard support system at apple wouldn't be able to help much with this as they pretty much handle the consumer end of support and not the provider/developer, Only support for that I could find is available at http://www.apple.com/itunes/content-providers/

  • How do I fill the unused space?

    Hi there,
                I have an issue whereby I can not get the screen to use the unused space on the side of my presenter area.
    I have a big gray empty section on the right hand side and this makes my charts too small in the middle.
    Can any one tell me how to use the entire space available?
    I have tried to resize the screen resolution , tried using presenter area only tried clicking and dragging it wider but cant seem to get it to fill the gray area on the right hand side.
    I have attached a chart to show you what I mean.
    Thanx

    Hi there,
                Thanx for the answer...the problem is my members do see this area...that screen shot was sent to me from a member.
    They all can see that gray area which is why I am trying to fix it.
    I am a complete newbie to this software and so am still trying to make head or tail of the multitudious manuals and tutorials...
    would it be possible for you to post a step for step how to maximize the area seen by the members? I have attached a chart here sent to me from the same member of another connect pro room that uses all the space, have a look at their space usage...its fills the box and their off stage area on the right is very much smaller than mine.
    thanx

  • Apple Loops - How do you change the monitoring output?

    Anyone know how to change the default output of the Apple Loop player to another output (eg. 5-6), or is this just wishful thinking?

    Very easy. Go to the mixer tab, and select the ALL button at the top of that window. You should see a channel strip called Prelisten, usually on audio channel 256. Change that output to whatever, and that will change the monitoring output for loops, the bin, and the Sample Editor.

  • B520 - how to bring down the monitor contrast?

    Brightness control in the front panel are not enough.
    the backlight is too much for me to handle
    Does anyone know how to bring down the contrast even more?
    thank you.

    I'll clear this up a little...
    NVIDIA Controls does not have any control over the lamp / backlight on the screen. You can turn down
    the gamma / brightness / contrast, and you may think you see it darker.
    YEEEEEEES. it's dark but the intensity of the backlight is still there. You can feel it from miles away.
    I chose Lenovo over ASUS just because of the GT555 option, and it was the worst mistake ever.
    Asus Et2700 series do have Contrast/Brightness controls for the screen in Values from 0-100.
    You can turn the screen completely dark if you want. Asus have never let me down, but thanks to my greed
    always wanting more, thought i would never feel complete unless i had the gt555.
    This is what happens when you fall for the marketing agenda.
    Fortunately, i sold it already. And this would be the last time i'll purchase something from lenovo.
    I'd like to think this is something that they just never thought. WRONG!!!. They know. they do it on purpose.
    That's their way to make you feel incomplete, so you can start chasing for something else and fall again
    in the marketing agenda.
    There's always a way to make an "ALMOST PERFECT" product, the worst nightmare for you.
    they have done this for years, since the beginning of times.
    Let's not forget about the SATA performance issue in H67/P67 chipsets:
    http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=2589
    the B520 is one of the lines affected and lenovo did nothing about it.
    And please let's not forget about the Trojan that got infiltrated in the drivers disc
    for the B Series Line.
    Hopefully, your campany will get a FORMAT C: by the end of this year.
    arrivederci.

  • HP G61 Laptop - how do I tighten the monitor

    HP G61 Laptop.
    My screen develops horizontal lines when less than 90 degrees - can one tighten the screws to fix this - how do I find the screws to tighten as there is no obvious area. Or can this be a 'pinched' cable running from keyboard to monitor?

    Thank you. I will look at AdobeLiveDesigner.
    I have found some workarounds in FormsCentral. I really like how easy it is to create the forms in this program.
    The only thing lacking is a text field with no label for multiple fill-in lines of information. That would make this program almost perfect.

    You need to implement a tree model to describe your data structure.
    Start from reading the java doc about javax.swing.tree.TreeModel
