Logic projects transfered into Itunes query

This might not be a typical question but if anyone can shed any light on this Id be very very grateful!
When I finish a project in Express I bounce it out an MP3 so I can send it off to labels etc...A major advantage of then dragging the MP3 into Itunes is that it seemed to compress the song slightly, it masters the track a little. You get this much thicker sound once its in Itunes. I love this as it makes the song sound 10times better and more prfessional.
BUT Ive noticed that if I go to upload the song or email it to someone it loses that compression and mastering it has in the Itunes Library. Obviously I have to drag it out of my library to my desktop so I can send it in an email, in doing this its removing that magic from it.
Can anyone advise how to keep that mastering sound or why it looses it when you drag it out of the itunes library to your desktop etc...Is there a way of avoiding this??
I know this maybe more an Itunes query but I wondered would anyone have any advise here.
Thanks a mill

Hi,
you probably have turned the music processing on in iTunes preferences->playback. In german it means something like "improve sound", and there's a slider beneath the checkbox with which you can do this.
You can use several plugins to achieve a similar result.
1. First, there seems to be the exciter plugin to boost the high frequencies. The exciter has the advantage over the EQ that it generates new frequencies out of the midranges, even if there are no native high frequencies in the sound material.
2. I am sure iTunes also uses a little stereo spread, which is a good thing to implement in your master track as well
3. Do make the sound crisper and denser, a slight master compression with fast attack/decay rates and low ratios does the job fairly good. If you don't have it already, go grab slim slow slider's C3 multiband compressor so you can treat low/mid/high frequencies separately.
4. An ever so slight adjustment with the EQ in the stereo output channel can cast a charm on a mediocre material..
The rest is to experiment and gain experience.

Play Counts from iPhone aren't transferring into iTunes?

I own an iPhone 3G and have the latest version of iTunes.
I am a person who is . . . proud of their play counts for certain songs and I am a bit upset that one certain song in my whole library (or, so it looks like it) does not seem to be getting the play counts transferred into iTunes. I know I'm not crazy and I honestly expected the song to jump 50-100 play counts up, but it stayed relatively low.
Just right now, I synced my phone and the play count for a new song (just added yesterday), which I absolutely adore, has a play count of over 50. (I have put it in repeat the whole day. :P)
So, I know something might be wrong; is this possible that certain songs don't transfer their play count onto iTunes after syncing? Is there a way to fix this?
Please feel free to ask questions and ask to clear up anything confusing I've said.
Thank you!

Hello,
I'm French (and in France so) and I have same problem since 1 or 2 weeks ! It's very difficult for me because I've a lot of smart playlist based on playcount...
Each day, I have to change playcount manually on iTunes (with scripts) for good working next day.
Like you, I've tried reinstalling and restoring without success. I think this problem appears for me since iOS 8.02 but not sure.
The only difference with you is my iPhone is 6 not 5... so the problem is not the phone but iOS or iTunes...
I hope a correction soon : iOS 8.1 ?
Macbook Pro, iPhone 6, iOS 8.02, iTunes 11.4
PS : Because english is difficult, I posted on french forum but no answer since 3 days...

I had my home movies put on a DVD, they have a bup extension, can they be transferred into itunes and play on my Ipad?

I had my old 8mm home movies transferred to dvd's, they have a .bup extension, is it possible to download them into itunes and play them on my ipad2

Yes. Is the short answer.
You can directly connect the speaker out port of the Mac mini to an input on the AV Receiver which then feeds your speakers. This would be an audio only solution. If you use a TOS-Link connection this will be a pure digital connection ensuring the best quality (important for audiophiles).
You can if you wish connect the video from the Mac mini to the AV Receiver, and if you have a Mac mini with HDMI or a Mini Displayport you can run the audio and video via a single cable. (Older models would use two cables, the aforementioned TOS-Link pus a DVI to HDMI cable.)
If you do connect the video output from the Mac to the AV Receiver you can then display this on your TV, and have as one possibility iTunes displayed with perhaps one of the iTunes visualisers playing along with the music. Another possibility would be to use FrontRow on the Mac.
A different approach would be to have the Mac mini stream over a network to a device e.g. the Sonos Zoneplayer which is then connected to the AV Receiver. An AirPort Express is also able to do this.

Music and photos transferred into itunes and iphoto from external hard drive on to my new hard drive installed in my 2007 macbook

I just installed a new 250 GB SATA hard drive on to my 2007 macbook computer as the old one failed. I had backed up my old hard drive on to a 250 GB external hard drive using time machine via a USB cord. I am having trouble locating my music and photo files to transfer them into itunes and iphoto on my new hard drive. I have signed in to my itunes account, where it shows my app and book purchases, but not my music purchases. I have over 1,000 songs purchased. Any help would be appreciated- Thanks!

Hi aourada,
Since you have a current Time Machine backup of your computer you should be able to use the Migration Assistant to recover your music and photos.

How do you export logic projects, and into soundcloud without ruining any quality?

I export a song, and it lost alot of volume. I found a way around that by adding adaptive limiter to the entire mix. It helped alot. Now I post it to soundcloud and then some of the instruments quality degrade. And when i play it in iTUNES or even the finder window, it is how i want it to sound. When I hear it on soundcloud, its quality and volume degrades. Is there a way around this???
please help! Thanks!

Just to clarify before I make any suggestions is that what most DAWs call exporting isn't called exporting in Logic, it's called Bounce. If you use the export command in Logic it will give you seperate WAV files for each track and .midi files for any midi tracks you have in your project. The Bounce command is right below the export command in the file menu, though.
The settings you choose when bouncing really depends on your preferences and how big of a file you care to have. If you have no mastering or mixing left to do you should choose PCM saved as WAV or AIFF (I'm honestly not sure of the pros and cons of the two), but you can bounce the project as more than one file format at once so you don't really have to choose only one.
If you bounce to an MP3 go ahead and choose the highest settings which I believe is 320CBR (320 constant bitrate). You can also bounce as AAC, which I prefer because Apple Lossless results in a fairly small file (compared to WAV) while maintaining good quality. You can also manage the file's metadata from this menu so your ID3 tags are good to go.
Like I said it's really up to your preferences and what you are going to use the file for.

Bad Track Transfers into iTunes, Get Skipped on iPhone?

I just noticed that my 1st gen and 3g iphones have been skipping tracks, maybe two or three per normal-sized album. The same tracks get skipped on both iphones. They will stop on the song, then go go on to the next one, as if the track was zero seconds long (though it displays the correct length). But the tracks that get skipped in the iphones will play fine in itunes. They are apple lossless btw. These skipped songs have played fine before in the 1st gen iphone. So I know it's probably not the files themselves, nor is it the iphones (unless it's related to 2.0), which leaves me thinking itunes is the culprit. So I want to delete the albums from itunes and bring them in again. When I do, they come right in, as opposed to when you bring in a new album or one you haven't had in itunes for a long time, where it analyzes each track, etc. In other words, itunes gives the albums the "I know you, come on in" treatment. Well this didn't fix my problem. So I want itunes to pick up the tracks/albums as if they were new, without having to wait a year. I can't figure out how to do this without reinstalling itunes. I even changed the path to the song files, thinking this would do the trick, but itunes basically didn't buy it- i.e. still recognized them. Is there anything I can do here?

Ok I found a workaround, if you have apple lossless tracks (and perhaps others) that your iphone (maybe ipods also) won't play, even if they used to play these very tracks fine before, you can convert them with dbPowerAmp from what they were into what they were- I convert the apple lossless files which won't play into apple lossless files (or you could convert to flac and back to mp4, but why bother). The new track should play fine (the originals were also created in dbPoweramp). This is the only thing I've found that will work- I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, renamed the bad mp4 files, copied (not moved) them to new directories, and redid all their tag values, and none of this worked. I think the key is that itunes checks some kind of file related hash code or checksum or crc or something (not my department), and converting the file changes it enough to be recognized as new (maybe there's a timestamp embedded somewhere in the converted file).

How to pack all used in project samples into one folder?

i have lots of samples in various folders in my hdds, but when i work on a project i don't remember where i get it from, i just use it and forget about it. but i want to put all copies of used in my logic project samples into one folder for don't delete them in the future or to share all that folder to my friend and he can open it without missing ones. just something like battery kits savings. how to do that?
any thoughts will be appreciated

Go to Save as...
At the bottom of the window is the Include Assets box. Tick it.
Click on Advanced options. Here you choose to which assets to include within the project folder.
wth existing projects, open them go to File : Project : Consolidate project

Can't drag album art into iTunes

iTunes doesn't always let me drag album art (images downloaded from Internet) into the art box. When I do it, and then click again on the information box for the album in iTunes, no art appears.(Then when I used the Get Album Art function on iTunes, I believe it wiped out all of the album art that had successfully been transferred into iTunes. Any help would be appreciated.

This has been reported a lot, check your Vista permissions on your entire iTunes folder (or wherever you store the song files).

Sharing Logic project with iTunes

I can't share my Logic Pro X project to iTunes. It usually cuts off the first half of the song. Anybody else have this problem? Any suggestions?

Manually use the File/Bounce/Full Project command... Create an aiff file (or Wave or whatever else), check the settings for the output format you choose... and then drag and drop into iTunes...
If you get the same issue... make sure you uncheck Offline Mode (and also make sure normalize is set to off unless you want your output file mix to be bland and flat) as it may be one of your plugins you have used in the project doesn't like offline mode bouncing...
Also make sure your start and stop settings are correct for your project, in the bounce dialog box...

How do I get Vienna Instruments (VI's) into a Logic Project?

so, I'm running an IMax OS X 10.6.7, with Logic Pro 9.1.4
I recently downloaded Vienna Symphonic Library Special Edition and Special Edition plus, the latest version. Everything is now downloaded and ready to go, and I have started messing around with patches, saving matrices, etc. on the standalone Vienna Software.
So my question is, how do I import the VI's into a Logic Project? I have read the Logic Manual, and it doesn't provide detailed instructions on how to do this. When I look at the Allowable VI plug ins in Logic, it shows the vienna instruments there, but I just don't know how exactly to go from having the matrices saved in my custom folder, using them with the standalone vienna player to actually using them within a Logic Project to create midi regions/tracks, and turn old midid regions/tracks that were created with Logic instruments in to tracks/regions with the Vienna Virtual Instruments.
Help?

Yes, I know how to run a software instrument. I actually figured out how to do this on my own, and am assuming that it is the best way. I just loaded any software "Logic" instrument, and then loaded the Vienna matrix into a plug in slot.
So that seems to work, but now I have more questions. Do you use Vienna?
If I already have a violin region recorded on a Logic instrument track, I have realized that i can just copy and past it onto the new track with the Vienna plug in and it will adopt those settings, but my question is this:
Vienna seems to make a big deal out of being able to play all the articulations of one instrument on just one track, with keyswitch controls, etc. But if I'm working with Midi data on a track in logic and I'm not performing all the parts "live" while recording, how do I get the articulation changes to stay in place, so that I can have a violin play staccato, legato, and pizzicato all in one track, without having to manually hit the keyswitches to change the articulations while the track is playing? obviously I can't do this while bouncing, or with multiple tracks at once, so how to you create a single track with multiple articulations in Vienna, plug it into a Logic Track, and have it playback with the changes in articulations, without having to manually change it.
Any ideas?
I have a lot of multi track orchestral projects composed using logic instruments, but I want to get all those over to Vienna Instruments as well. What would be the easiest way to do this, with consideration to my above question concerning one track for multiple articulations of an instrument?

HT203167 I can see an audiobook that I purchased in my iTunes account and on my iphone, but it's not transfering into my library. HELP!

That's basically it. I purchased 2 audio books from my iphone, and only one transfered into my itunes. I saw both books download in icloud, but again, only the one showed up.
What should I do. I see it everywhere except where I want it.
Thanks for your help.

Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download, so they won't appear in the Purchased link for re-downloading, so you will need to contact Apple. Try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that audiobook and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

Thank you for your prompt response - I did as you said and did a drag and drop into the iTunes window - it imported and got my album art from the net. When I started Itunes with the shift key down I was prompted to choose a library but since I copied over the media folder and not the library folder I was unable to select that so I guess I will have to create a new library and add in all the music, videos, etc. unless I wait for my laptop and export the library or at least that seems to be the case? In short, all my data (iTunes media folder) is on my external drive and can be added to the blank iTunes screen but I can not choose a library folder. Is there anyway around completely making all those playlists again? I am not sure my laptop will survive the shop with data intact and really hate to start over on those.
In an unrelated question - I collect old TV shows from the 1950's. Can I make playlists within the home video folder somehow? In other words like one for Quiz shows, one for comedies, one for police and detective shows, etc. while I am remaking all my playlists for my music if I end up having to go that route?
Once again thank you for helping me out. I am not too Itunes savvy and really appreciate you taking the time to answer.
