Live recording using LS9 help
Hi there,
I'm completely new to Logic and have come from using Cubase 4. I play in a band and we have been discussing recording a live track. All of my recording experience has been on my own, recording each instrument one by one so I have no experience of multi-tracking. We'll be recording the track in a church where the sound desk is located a the back of the church. I'm unsure of how I should link the the Focusrite up to the desk. I have BFD so I hope our drummer will be able to use his electronic drum kit. We are a four piece band which consists of me on Lead vocals & guitar, keyboard player & backing vocals, bass player & drummer.
I would appreciate if anyone could take me through a step by step process of what would be the best way to set everything up. I would also appreciate some guidance from a DAW point of view if there is anything I should keep in mind.
The equipment I'll be taking is:
Macbook Pro
Logic Studio 9
Focusrite Saffire Pro 26
Thanks
Dan
Thanks for your reply but I don't understand what you mean. I would be grateful if someone could offer a more in depth process of how to set up what I'm trying to accomplish.
Thanks

Need help with adobe audtion recording using a mic i wantto plug in
i need to record audio into adobe audtion using an external mic that i will plug intgo the mac. But whe i plug in the chord i still geth thw internal mic recording..any help please??????????????@
I'll stress that I use Windows not a Mac so I'm not expert on that sort of thing but this guide seems to give the information you need: How to Setup External Microphone in Mac - Make Tech Easier
Once you have the computer itself set up, the controls you need within Audition are on the Edt/Preferences/Audio Hardware menu. If the mic is properly recognised by the Mac operating system as per the link above, you should then find it on a drop down menu you can select from in Audition. -
Inserting record using form does not work. Please Help
I am trying to insert a record using INSERT INTO command in a form followed by commit.
I put the command in when-button-press trigger( I use a button to initiate insert into table command).
But it does insert the record into the table.
Then I try to ignore the INSERT INTO command and only use COMMIT, and it works.
But when I use control block, I can not use commit only to insert into table.
Is there anything that I have missed ?
PLease help. I had tried to solve this fora week.
Thank you, I really appreciate any response.Setting your block as a datablock with source as a specified table and a number of items connected to specified columns gives you direct access to your table. Thus your commit alone will work. The second you change this to a control block, you cut your connection to the table. Thus you must use an insert into statement followed by a commit. By the way, when you use a commit statement, it processes exactly like a commit_form inbuilt function.
Hope this helps,

The when-validate trigger has already run and completed with success, before the when-timer-expired trigger even started.
You must do the checking and raise form_trigger_failure at the same time from the When-validate-record trigger.
In fact, you don't even need to Post; first. In the WVR trigger, just do this:
If :System.Record_Status = 'INSERT', then do the select.
Then, if v_counter >= 1, issue the message and Raise Form_Trigger_Failure; -

My partner and I live on opposite sides of the valley here in Phoenix. About 50 miles apart one way. We are Musicians and are working on a commercial for television, and would like to know if there is a way, between FaceTime and Logic, that we can configure our MacBook Pro's to record sessions together without having to be at the same house? When we FaceTime, he can hear my keyboard through his headphones, but we can't seem to get the signal routed into Logic and register to a track when its record enabled. Is there a way for us to save gas, and record at seperate locations, so he can engineer me and I can engineer him, while we build this project in Logic and Final Cut? Here is what we are using, we have nearly identicle setups, which was planned so we might be able to do something like this. Both of us are using Mid 2012 15" MacBook Pro's with 2.6GHz Intel i7 processors and 16GB RAM. The only difference between the two MacBooks is that his has an Optical Drive, but I removed mine and replaced it with a 2nd SSD Drive, so I have two Samsung 840 Pro's each with 512GB in my MacBook Pro. His just has one Samsung 840 Pro with 512GB. We both use Focusrite Saffire Liquid 56 Firewire Audio Interfaces, and we both use Logic Studio 9 Academic. I don't know if you need to know what we are using in order to help us figure out how to configure the MacBooks for a live session, so I figured I would give you those details just in case. If you need any more information, just let me know? Oh, we both have high speed cable Internet connections. Mine is 150Mbps speed which is the absolute fastest I can get in my area. And his is only a 50Mbps speed line.
Again, what we are looking to do is have a LIVE recording session, in Logic, with him at his house and me at my house. When we FaceTime each other, we can pretty much hear each others keyboards as if they were part of the conversation, and as crystal clear as we can hear our own when recording, but we can't seem to record enable an Audio track in Logic and route that keyboard signal into Logic and record it so we can engineer each other without either one of us having to drive to the others house, to be there to do it. If any of this even makes sense, I'm not quite sure how to better explain it. So hopefully you get what I mean, otherwise just say so, and I will try to do a better job explaining it. :-)
Anyone who can help us with this little problem would be greatly appreciated, and quite a hero in these two humble Musicians Worlds!! So from both of us, THANK YOU in advance for any input you might be able to give us. I look forward to hearing any and all suggestions.
ScottHey Scott
You and ALOT of people are attempting to do this, myself included.
Unfortunately at this point (to my knowledge) it's a pretty CRAP setup involved that will likely leave you frustrated.
HOWEVER:
A few things CAN be done:
IF you are getting live audio from your partner over the internet, you can re-direct that audio directly into Logic using a program called SoundFlower.
There are a few alternatives to SoundFlower, like JackTrip, and.....(the name eludes me)
(SoundFlower is from a company called Cyling 74 who also makes Max MSP. )
Once in Logic, you set your audio inputs to the track to be Soundflower. (either 16 inputs, or in this case 2)
That all being said, regardless to speed, you are still going to experience latency in the connection, and THAT is the part that will likely drive you to the mad house.
THIS all being said, I believe there are websites out there that are set up to actually do this kind of thing, (at least there WERE) but likely membership costs, and other "hidden" problems that you only learn about after you have signed on the dotted line. (Hopefully I am wrong?)
If you don't need to do a "live jam", there are always solutions like DropBox that work very well for exchanging large files quickly.
If you want to record live MIDI input from his keyboard, I am unaware of any solutions for this.
Due to the popularity of the iPad, you might want to look into the App store, and see if there is something available.
Good luck!

Can anybody help?
I am considering buying a new MAC laptop to run LOGIC for composition and band live/recording, but which one is best as I do not want to spend too much money?
Does it have a line in and how do you monitor sound?
Will I need adaptors and an interface?
Also, I am guessing as Logic only runs on MAC surely then they would not the best spec to recommend to run it?
I see all the upgrades as additional memory or a faster process?
Is a retina screen necessary, and why flash based storage against a 1TB hard drive, and a i5 instead of an i7
The main reason for this purchase is to play live and use backing tracks and record found sounds and make creative songs.
I hope you can provide some valuable feedback, as I am a longtime MAC user and see upgrades and changes happen regularly but the most important thing is the songs not the equipment.
I have £500 already and willing to add another 500 to 700 pounds, then software extra.Can anybody help?

I recently uploaded a live recording to match and it appears (and plays) under "recently added" on the left menu. When I create a new playlist for this music it won't play and has the "ineligible" cloud symbol with slash through it. It must be in the cloud as it's playing now, but the content will not play if moved from "recently added" into a playlist. I'm puzzled. Any help?
Bit rate is 192 kbps
it is an mpeg file
Thanks in advance!I just went back and used Tunesify to convert from mp3 to aac format and it's working now. I've added over 20K to my match library and this is the 1st time something like thas has happened.

Could use some help on positioning images
With help here, I'm making my way through ID novice to ID "dangerous". I sorta get layout and sorta get styling and now could use some help with sizing and positioning images.
The test is a 3-column newspaper that I let ID size when the document was created. All the text frames are linked. I now want to put some images on the pages and have the text wrap. I sorta understand wrapping and anchoring, the question is sizing.
Am I on the right path to start thinking that images often need to be sized to a column width or two (plus gutter)? If so, do I size images based on the frame size? For example, the columns show as 3.2222in and the gutter as .1667. Does that mean I want to set the image width to 3.2887 or are things just not that accurate? What are the best practices?
One related question on wrapping: it seems like anchoring the image allows wrapping around only one frame of text but not the other if the image spans two text columns. How do you place and image so that it wraps text in more than one column?
Also, do people make the image smaller than the frame to put a border in when wrapping text?
Thanks
TomAre you asking about image size as it is saved, or as placed on the page?
With older RIPS it was common to want to save images at the correct dimensions so when placed at 100% they would have the correct resolution. This was to reduce processing time. Today that is less of an issue and it is not at all unusual to scale images in the InDesign layout. (I'm talking raster here -- vector objects can be scaled almost infinitely.)
So, what is the correct size? There are a number of rules of thumb, but the basic one is that images should be placed so that the resolution, at the size they will be printed, is twice the value of the linescreen being used. Anything in the range of 1.5 to 2.5 is probably acceptable, and I know people who routinely send images at 1.4 times the linescreen.
For coated papers and reasonably good reproduction, 150 lpi is not unusual, with 200 lpi for fine art books, so you get the common suggestion that images should be 300 ppi. Newspaper printing is usually accomplished on fairly porous stock at much lower screen frequencies -- 80 to 100 lpi -- so you need considerably less image resolution.
How do you know what the resolution is at the size you've place the image? Look at the info panel with an image selected. You'll see too numbers, an "actual" ppi and an "effective" ppi. The actual number is simply the resolution recorded with the image at its dimensions when it was saved (and digital cameras often save images 20 inches or so wide at 72 ppi) and is basically irrelevant. The effective ppi is the one that matters. If it's too small, either reduce the size of the image on the page, or be prepared to live with less than stellar reproduction. If it's grossly over the requirement it usually won't hurt except for some increased processing time, but the extra image data won't improve things as it gets discarded by the RIP.
It's usually OK to downsample an image in Photoshop, though you will sometimes lose fine detail or subtlety in shading, but you'd probably lose the same things through scaling in ID. Upsampling never helps.
I presume you know that you can place graphical objects in several ways, either into an existing frame, at full size (whatever that happens to be and at the "actual" resolution) by clicking the loaded cursor on an empty spot on the page, or you can click and drag a new frame the size you want. When an image is first placed it will always be "actual size" unless some scaling factor has been applied to the frame in advance, so you may not see the entire image. You then have several fitting options available to either make the frame fit the image or the image fit the frame (and in newspaper work you pretty much only want to fit to or fill the frame proportionally).
I personally like keeping the images snapped to the column grid, but it's by no means an iron-clad rule. You want to avoid situations, though, where an image impinges on a column to the point that the remaining text is unworkably narrow.
I don't know why you are using anchored frames for your images (text wrap only affects text in the frame after the anchor point). It's not likely in a newspaper that you would want the pictures to move on the page if you edit the text. You can group the image, caption and story, if you like, so that they all stay together if you need to re-arrange the page or move them to a new location.
I don't know if I answered your question. Feel free to come back for clarification.

Equalizing Live Recording in FCP
Hello,
I am seeking any advice about equalizing sound using the graphic equalizer in FCP 5.1, after recording a friends Jug band (acoustic & homemade instruments) at a bandshell outdoor live recording with a single wireless Sennheizer cardiod microphone gaffer taped to the center floor on small stand pointing up. I videotaped it with my Panasonic DVX 100A on both channels and had to fairly boost the gain but got an o.k. level most of the time.
As you can tell this is not intended to be a professional piece for my friends, but the vocals and the instruments are pretty much competing as you might guess. They use guitars, acoustic kettle bass, drums; cymbals, jugs, harmonicas, ukuleles and they harmonize (vocals) often. Kind of R. Crumb material. I have tried this so far:
Rolled back 60-100Hz (2-3db)
Boosted a little 125-250 (2-3db)
315Hz (+1db)
Roll back in a curve 600-1000 (1-3db)
Keeping curve
Boosting at 2K to 4K (2-3db)
5K (+2db)
6K (+1db)
Flattening out at 8K
If anyone else has any comments about what you might have found helpful please let me know. I have worked with sound for a while but any helpful experience and advice would be great thanks. I just want it to sound good for my friends... thanks
peacehey there alchemy,
there's not much you can do, as it seems you started w/ poor mic placement. is this the same curve on both audio channels? if so, try a different curve on one that accentuates the vocal range between 2K-5K, depends on voices-some may be lower, some may be higher- you'll have to play w/ it, that's just a general range for voice & reduce it on the other, then pan one channel more to the right, the other more to the left, also raise the overall level of the audo channel w/ the vocals accentuated/reduce the instrument track. don't have much else in the way of suggestions.
i've done live sound & recording for about 28 years & for the next time get your mic closer to their mouths, if they're all singing into one mic-like what is done w/ traditional bluegrass music, attach/tape yours to that stand if possible, put yours on a floor stand near that one if possible, off the stage in front of them(if the stage isn't too high) or put it on a stand closer to the SR(sound re-inforcement) speaker, but not so close as to blow it's capsule/diaphragm or even ask the audio person if you can get a feed from the board. i've made some quality recordings w/ a stereo pair-for that i like Audio Technica AT-822 or 825 stereo mic, if you have more $$ the Shure VP88. like lighting you may need a variety of tools to get the job done-i have a mic locker that includes a $30.00 Radio Shack stereo mic(no longer made) that does a decent job for the occasional theater shows i shoot for myself/friends w/ my consumer miniDV, but i also have some more expensive $500.00 LDC mics, a range of dynamic/vocal mics & SDC mics as well as a variety of recorders & mixers. check out Shure, AKG & AT websites as they offer info about mics & placement, w/ a slant toward their own gear of course.
good luck, hope this helps. -
CME Live Recording Working but get a "Live Record has Stopped" message
Hi All,
I've configured Live Recording and its working perfectly.
However, when you press the LiveRcd button, you briefly get a message "Live Record has Stopped". (It does record the conversation and delivers it to my mailbox).
Is this normal?

How to detect if a user has changed a record using a custom method?
I am in the process of developing a test case application using ADF JSF and a collection of Java objects that are not populated by a database.
Details of what I have developed so far can be found on this post:
how to create a new record using a custom method?
Is it possible to detect if a user has changed the value(s) of a record?
I have set the edit page up (as described in the other post) and this works fine, but how could I tell if the user has changed something on that record. This is what I would like to do, but am not sure how to achieve it or whether it is possible....
when the user puts a record in edit mode, take a copy of that record
then when the user presses save or exit to navigate away from the edit page do a comparison between the original values and the potentially changed ones
then depending on the outcome of the comparison call an appropriate action
Thanks in advance for your help
DavidIf you just want to know if the value has changed you can put it in a while loop and use shift registers to see if the value has changed.

PXE across subnets using IP Helper Address
For 10 years I have been trying to get my network engineers to add an IP Helper address of our SCCM PXE Server in order to provide an Enterprise PXE service for our campus (Large University). And every year they keep telling me
they won’t do it due to security concerns. I’m not exactly sure what they mean or what they are afraid of but I am looking for others who have been in this same situation and have been able to accomplish what has been a never ending exercise in futility for
me. I am looking for a white paper or a case study that I can use to help build my case and hope that someday I can convince our engineers that the world won't come to an end by adding IP Helper addresses... they won’t do it due to security concerns. I’m not exactly sure what they mean or what they are afraid of..
You need to get to the bottom of their specific concerns....
PXE involves the use of TFTP (to download the NBP + boot.sdi + boot.wim).
TFTP is neither robust/resilient nor particularly secure.
But I'm guessing that the concern must surely be more related to the payload/content (i.e. what is within the boot image itself) that might be the worry?
The boot image (potentially) contains licensed products (not directly a security concern), and certificates, accounts, passwords, scripts ?
If you have the F8 debug feature enabled in your boot image, it could be used to "live boot" a computer, access the filesystem on that computer, and basically provide uncontrolled access to the files/documents/data on that computer (assuming that your computers
are not using any form of disk encryption).
For this last reason, F8-debug should not remain enabled for "normal" operation.
In our organisation, we mitigate that risk with disk encryption. We also don't distribute boot media nor full media - PXE is the only way we deploy OS (well, outside of the datacentre, that is).
Our networking team were initially concerned about PXE - but not from the security aspect, more from the capacity/bandwidth perspective. So we worked with them to plan/design/place the boot servers, and the DP's placement.
