Linking/Gluing Regions Across Multiple Tracks

I am editing a podcast in Logic Express (or at least trying to... as mostly a Garageband user, I am finding it a bit daunting). What I am looking for is a way to essentially link regions from two or more different tracks together (see http://img.skitch.com/20100514-8i6k1jmyhka8n637r6sw4918mw.jpg).
The end goal here is to tie a particular musical interlude to a specific moment in the vocal track so that when I move the vocal track around (or edit an earlier part that causes the track to shift left), the music that is on a different track moves along with it (keeping that individual arrangement in tact). Does that make sense?
Is this possible within Logic Express; or are regions on separate tracks forever independent of one another, and I'll have to keep them synced up manually?

Maaaany possibilities.
1st: Simply select both regions. Grab&drag. As long as both regions are selected, they'll move together.
2nd: If you want to "glue" them together forever, simply select both regions and press + to combine them. A mixdown will be done (you will still have both separately in the bin), but they will end up in one track instead of two, so care if you have other plugins on the second track. In case of doubt, bounce in place first to get the FX into the file.
3rd, probably most convenient in your case: Select the regions and pack a folder (menu "regions" -> pack folder.) The folder can then be moved separately, but the regions will be triggered in their respective tracks, which you should leave as they are.
Try!

  • Same Region across Multiple Pages

    Hi There!
    Working on a requirement where I need same region across multiple pages.
    One way (Hard way) to do it is , repeat the region in all the pages.
    Is there any other way (smart way) so that I can write region once and reference it in other pages ? ? ?
    Thanks
    Krishna

    Yes, you can design this form on Page 0. Then this form will apply to every page.

  • Way to control audio key frames across multiple tracks in one fell swoop?

    Hi everybody. Let's say I have 5 layers of audio, and I want to key frame levels and fades across all of them. Is there a way to sync the tracks such that, any changes I make to one will apply to all? Ala, the way one makes changes to both tracks in a stereo pair in one fell swoop.

    Nest the sequence and make the moves on the resulting "mixed-down" audio. All audio should appear as a simple stereo pair in the nest. Adjust here.

  • Region across multiple column

    I have a page with two columns. The regions can be allocated in two columns. For example:
    Region1 Region2
    Region3 Region4
    Region5 Region6
    I want the first region to be across two columns, like this:
    Region 1
    Region2 Region3
    Region4 Region5
    Region6 Region6
    How could I do it? Because in APEX you have to specfy which column the region is going to be.
    Tried use colspan="2" in HTML attribute, but it does'nt work.

    Do one thing,
    In the User Interface property of the region 1 select the Display Point as "Page template Body(1.....)"
    and after that from Region 2 select Display Point as "Page template Body(2.....)"
    and select the column(1 or 2) accordingly.

  • Applying audio fades across multiple tracks for surround

    Hi,
    I am working on a concert recorded in surround, and have been given the mixes as 5 separate audio tracks. I have to fade in and out at the end of each song as there is a commentary in between the songs. But I have to apply the same fade to each track (i.e. left, right, centre) which is quite time consuming, especially when I need to change the fade length by a few frames so they fade out equally.
    Is there a way to link the fades (I've linked the audio tracks - but it doesn't seem to effect fades)
    Thank
    Daniel

    You could also Map the individual Audio Tracks to a Submix Track and then apply the Fade to that. It can be easily done in Audio Mixer with Track Keyframes on the fixed Effect>Volume. You can also use Audio Mixer to "route" or Map your individual Tracks to that Submix Track.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    Note: Audio Mixer will apply TRACK Keyframes, so they stay exactly where placed on that Track, regardless of what one might later do with Clips.

  • Editable Regions Across Multiple Pages

    Is it possible to create an editable region in a template
    that when edited would update all the pages within a website? For
    example, I am working on a website for a symphony. They want their
    upcoming events listed on the sidebar of each page and want to
    update this information frequently. But, they have over 50 pages.
    Any suggestions?

    I'm afraid that will make a mess. The entire body contents
    will be placed
    in the right editable region....

  • Multiple track (or region) selection for mass editing and deleting.

    My project has multiple tracks, and it is too long. So I'd like to be able to select multiple tracks and then remove regions across multiple tracks in one move rather than having to delete regions track by track, and then moving them back to close the gap (which is a time consuming pain)
    Is this possible?
    Many thanks

  • Question about cropping multiple tracks at the same time

    Ok, here is the situation. My band jams reguarly, and I am recording 8 tracks concurrently.... each instrument gets their own mic/input.... typical band fare.
    The recording will last a solid 45-60 minutes before we break. In the meantime, there is plenty of downtime, and multiple songs.
    After the jam, I like to cut out the crap, bad takes, etc....
    I do this by editing the waveform of each track individually, selecting the 'good region'.... copying the section ... and pasting into a new track... I repeat this 8 times... once for each track....
    I then mute the original 8 tracks, move all the clips to timecode 0 and export to disk....
    Needless to say, this is very, very time consuming, and I would like some input about a better way to do this.
    Is it possible to select the same region across multiple tracks and copy/paste them into several new tracks? Or is it possible to define the 'playable region' of a larger region so that when I export, I am only exporting the region I am interested in?
    Ultimately, I want to produce an exported .m4a for each 'good take' which is nothing more than a subset of the larger 60 minute take....

    Have you tried selecting all tracks, then split at the beginning and ending of the "good take" then copy and paste it into a new GB file?

  • How do I edit/delete the same section of multiple tracks?

    Basically I'm doing a podcast with multiple voice tracks. Once I sync and line everything up, I still have sections of audio I want to take out. But obviously with the tracks synced, I need to delete it from all of them at once and have the audio "snap" back in place. How do I accomplish this?

    Enable the "Arrangement Track" and define arrangement regions. Then you can delete and move regions across all tracks at once.
    See: Edit Arrangement Regions

  • Controlling Multiple track volumes by moving only one fader???

    I have a 4 part harmony, 4 vocals on 4 separate tracks. I have the volume mix of the 4 vox tracks exactly how i want them to sound together. Is there any way to lock them to each other so i can move one fader to change the volume of all 4 in unison? it's getting annoying changing each track by .2db at a time to try and get the right level for the harmony as a whole. thanks in advance.

    DannyMac wrote:
    Similar question, can volume automation of a track be moved in unison with the volume of other tracks in a group? example: 3 vocal tracks in a group, all have volume automation data and all are the perfect levels with regards to one another, but i want to lower the entire vocal mix, having all the automation points for each track change by the same amount. thanks again in advance.
    Jim Frazier's suggestion works great for this: route the three tracks to a bus/aux track, and use that fader to adjust the master vocal level. It's also possible to group/select all automation points at once across multiple tracks, but I think you'll find using a fader will be easier for this.

  • Can I record multiple tracks simultaneously in v. 1.1?

    Hey, I found some instructions online about how to record multiple tracks simultaneously in version 3, but I can't figure out how to do it in the old version I have, 1.1. Any help is appreciated. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping this feature wasn't implemented later. I have a two-mic setup for podcasts, and need to record both on diff. tracks.

    Multi-track recording was added in v2
    From STP 2 Manual - New Features:
    Multitrack Recording
    With Soundtrack Pro 2, you can record across multiple tracks in the Timeline. (This is limited only by your hardware setup.)
    So, not available in v1
    Have you tried Garageband?

  • Maintaining sync across multiple audio tracks

    In the timeline I have a single video track  with some sync images and some B-roll images that float against the soundtracks. I have  8 audio tracks, some in sync with different video clips some not. I've trimmed one B-roll video clip and deleted a portion of it.
    How do I adjust the 8 different audio tracks so they don't lose their sync relationship with the video timeline as a whole?
    Used to be when cutting motion picture film multitracks we could delete an equal amount of fill from each track at different points for each so the overall sync stays the same.
    But slug doesn't seem the same as fill--you can't mark a portion of slug in the timeline and delete it.
    What I've figured out is to measure the timecode length of my deleted portion of a clip, and to advance each track along the timeline by that amount by selecting all audio tracks forward and entering the timecode. I guess if you inserted a B-roll clip you could do the reverse.
    This seems to work but there has got to be an easier way. Or isn't there?
    Doing these kinds of edits would seem to be standard for all kinds of docs and narratives but I can't find anything in the documentation except how to delete the same portions of tracks at the same edit points across all tracks.
    Thanks . . .
    Robert

    It's not clear to me exactly what you're trying say, but that's probably because didn't go to school for this... I'm pretty sure I know how to cut multiple audio and video tracks because I've been doing it since FCP3. No matter how you express it, the facts remain:
    You can cut with impunity if you go "old school" and unlink all the clips except the stereo pairs.
    You can create and cut slugs to fill spaces.
    You can mark clips to assist the sync process.
    What I usually do is find a good series of sync points and mark the clips, then de-link. From there I can fung shui the clips to my liking and add slugs to fill voids and prevent unintentional movement.
    Automatic? no. Difficult: no, not if you know your tools.
    ps: I also drive a manual shift car and navigate with a printed map...  it just works.

  • Searching for links across multiple pdf files

    We have thousands of pdf files that are being moved to a new website. Some of these pdf files have links within them (either as text or as a hyperlink). This number is unknown.
    The issue is how to programmatically search across multiple pdf files (numbering in the thousands) looking for links using a regular expression or part of a path. This will have to be able to search behind the text and search for the link url.
    We first need to identify the number of files with links and create a list of the files with links that need modifying. If the number is too great to modify manually, then we would need the ability to programmatically edit these links.
    The pdf files are stored in a database. Also, the pdf files are different versions and some are password protected.
    Is there an Adobe product that will perform this? If not, are there any 3rd party vendor products that will accomplish this?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I have no solution, but a thought: the database factor may seem to be
    a killer. But you could look for a solution designed to read PDF files
    from a web site (by spidering or from a list), which would presumably
    load them.
    Or could do a one off extraction of the files from the database into a
    directory and use that for your process. Probably a very good idea,
    since extracting all files from the database is likely to be costly
    and hammer the server (but can be scheduled at a sensible pace), while
    the search process will (if it is possible at all) doubtless need to
    be run countless times.

  • Linking and updating colors across multiple illustrator files

    Is there a way to link and automatically update color swatches across multiple illustrator files (CS4)?
    I've saved swatches into an ASE file, and opened the ASE file into multiple illustrator files, but the secondary files don't seem to reference back to the ASE file, when a new version with changes to the swatches has been made.
    Thanks for any advice.

    @SP/RAA
    Jean posted perhaps the best solution for your problem.
    A template is an Illustrator document for startup. You can create a document...place all the colors you want to the Swatches panel....insert contents to symbol, brushes, graphic styles and so on. Then you can go File > Save as Template.
    Now...when you want to start a new document..you could File > New from Template. Then new document will have all the stuffs of the template, including other specifications like rulers viewed...guides...
    But even using template you cannot update a batch of documents...The template is only a document for start...and it does not keep linked to new documents based on it.
    Or you try via script (do not know how further it would help) or try the alternative given by Jean.

  • CURSOR across multiple Regions

    Hello,
    I have a page that I need to display around 300 fields with custom html mixed in. Instead of creating all the page items, I want to just creat a CURSOR and use htp.print. My problem is that its a LOT of code. I want to break it apart across multiple regions. Is their a way to OPEN a cursor so that multiple regions can use it?
    Or, back to the PHP days, is their an ARRAY that this can be loaded into and printed like a cursor when needed?

    Is their a way to OPEN a cursor so that multiple regions can use it?You can have a process run before all regions to insert records into a collection(by a package call or PLSQL region).
    Then refer to this collection in your regions(s)
    <li>If you want to separte or split the content across, multiple "regions" , you cab generate them in the same PLSQL code that you posted.
    For instance, you have a single PLSQL based region without any template which generate the HTML code that renders like multiple region.
    In the Source, you can generate the HTML code for the region(s) in addition to printing out the data.
    An Apex region normally consists of div or table elements given some styling using builtin classes(and matching the theme). So if you generate the same HTML, it would render the same as a region.You can copy the HTML content of any region template(or from the rendered page) and add that within the "htp.p" codes.
    <li> A third option would be to generate the enclose different sections of your data in some identifiable HTML element and use Javascript to move them under the appropriate region.
    Having said this, I have to agree with replies above,there could be a better way of displaying your data than generating the entire HTML yourself.Since you say about using a cursor, I guess multiple SQL reports regions would be a good starting point as they are used for displaying lots of records. You could tweak the look'n'feel with some kind of customized template, rather that redo the whole thing yourself.
