Lossless Audio Editing

I have Apple Lossless audio format files to edit. Just simple trim, cut, copy, and paste. I do have QuickTime 7 pro for the job, but it doesn't export to any lossless format.
Does Soundtrack would be able to do what I need?

QuickTime itself doesn't do what STP does. STP is a sound-for-picture mixing and sweetening environment.
In your particular instance there is no advantage to using STP over QuickTime unless you wanted to make additional changes such as compression/limitation, reverb, etc.

  • Zen Vision:M 30GB - lossless audio

    "Zen Vision:M 30GB - lossless audioO I've been looking into lossless audio formats, came across WAV and found (on wikipedia) that my player supports it. Can't find much info on the Creative site, it seems to have changed since I was on it last (everything was nice and easy, now it feels like they don't want me to find what I'm looking for).
    I've ripped a couple of CD's using Winamp and have WAV files.
    BUT
    Whenever I try and put the music on the player it does NOT appear in the playlist. I've done it though Media Explorer, MediaSource Organiser and by opening the player as a removable dri've My Computer and dragging and dropping it in.
    When I view the music folder through the Media Explorer it shows that it is there but when I unplug and try to find it on the player it isn't.
    I have updated to the latest firmware (.62.02E) and I'm using Vista

    Do you have a "unknown " albums in your album list or artists?

  • Any word on lossless audio in iTMS ?

    I (and many I speak to) are still refusing to purchasing anything from the online store until the music can be purchased in lossless audio. I will then happily spend LOADS of money in the store. There was a rumour going around a while back that it could be in the pipeline. Is there any more news on this ? My credit card is itching to be used !!!

    There was a rumour going around a while back that it could be in the pipeline.
    Apple usually does not give any information about upcoming changes.
    But they surprised us (well, not me, but only users in the US) by offering higher quality movies and TV shows.
    We'll have to wait and see.

  • How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail

    How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail?
    My computer is Windows 7 and my Itunes software version is 1.0.2
    Many thanks in advance...

    iTunes 1.0.2 is +at least+ eight years old.
    The current version is 9.2, and it's free.
    If that was a typo, and you're using something more current:
    In the iTunes preferences, change the import settings to mp3.
    Then select the songs you wish to convert.
    From the "Advanced" menu, choose "Create mp3 version".
    When done, change the import settings back to Apple Lossless.
    That's it.
    BTW, this is the Logic Pro forum, which has absolutely nothing to do with iTunes.

  • Audio edit not working. Can't cross fade

    Suddenly when I attempt to select the end of one audio track and the beginning of the other, it does not become high lighted as usual and I can't apply a cross fade.
    I never had this problem before and it suddenly appeared. If I double click I get an option for a Trim Edit, but that is not what I want to do.
    How can I simply click on the audio edit and apply the audio cross fade??
    Thanks!!

    In FCP, go to the menu Sequence > Render and make sure all the conditions are checked.
    Do the same for Render All:

  • Missing audio edits in YouTube

    I load iMovie 11 media file into GB for my audio editing.  Works great and then I SHARE as a Quicktime .mov.  Quicktime .mov now plays back as it should with ALL my audio edits.  Then I upload this file by dragging and dropping the .mov file into YouTube (Yes, it's the correct file) and when played back on YouTube, only original unedited audio track is played back............
    My analysis:  There must be multiple tracks in the .mov IMHO and Quicktime knows which ones to playback but only the original track is read by YouTube.  This may be BS on my part.......  I don't think I am doing anything wrong but believe there is a bug running around somewhere.......
    Anyone have any ideas how to correct this?
    I have the latest iMovie 11 and Garageband and Quicktime running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    BTW, I got this idea for editing iMovie audio in Garageband and Garageband is all set up to do this, from David Pogue Missing Manual.  Other then the YouTube problem, it works great.  You have all these tracks to work with for sound effects, voice overs, music and panning with complete control.

    FLATTEN FIXED IT!
    When "SHARE" to Quicktime, you can use H.264 or Mpeg 4 but to FLATTEN the audio tracks, I used AAC and when uploaded to YT, it all was there!
    Thanks to all who volunteered the FLATTEN idea!  I had called Apple and they said it wasn't their problem as the QT .mov file played back okay while in Apple territory.
    THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR HELP!

  • Advanced audio editing

    I am trying to add a music clip to a video with effects and voice, but I want the voice to duck the music, but the music to duck the sound effects (explosions/etc), is there a way to do this?
    Here's is a simplified breakdown of what I mean:
    0-15 seconds I want the music to be at max volume, and the video audio to be 50% volume
    15-30 seconds I want the music to be at 50% volume, and the video (this is where the voice comes in) to be at max volume.
    30 seconds til 2:05 I want the music to be at max volume, and the video to be at 50%
    2:05-2:15 Video back at max, audio at 50%
    Is there a way to do this?

    The Ducking feature will suppress every other track by the percentage you specify. For this reason, you don't want to Duck two clips at the same time.
    It would be more straightforward for you to just adjust the volume levels rather than use the ducking.
    As of iMovie 11, you can select a range within your audio clip and apply a volume (rather than apply the volume to the whole clip).  So I would do it that way.
    See the video at this link called "All new audio editing".

  • How can you do audio editing with fcpx

    I want to know why was the audio in FCPX have such a big limitation of its audio editing, I want to leave the original clip sound but adding a music background and during the clip playback I want to rise and lower the volume in some portion of the clip I use to do that with FCP studio, but with FCPX you could only drag one point up or down and not a portion of the clip. Is there a work around on this or do I have to send these people from apple some feeback, on audio editing.

    funny - I find your method more than complicated: switching to the range tool is a single click operation, and then just dragging - done.
    precision is accomplished a) by magnification, b) by setting in/out traditionally with I and O, c) shifting the 'rough selection' manually, or, at last d) first setting Markers and snap the Range Tool to it.

  • Lossless audio for MPEG-2 and MP4

    When I export a video out to either MPEG-2 or MP4 (H.264) I am not able to select an option for lossless audio. Is there a way to add that option?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    How do you plan to use the file?  Which lossless codec do you wish to use?  Is lossless audio appropriate for how the file will be distributed?  Are you looking for best quality or is there a different, specific reason that you wish to use lossless encoding?  (Also, what version of Adobe Media Encoder are you using?)
    The list of available codecs for the MPEG formats can change depending on the Multiplexing setting you choose.  However, make sure that the multiplexing setting you choose is appropriate to how you intend to distribute the file.  For example, 3GPP multiplexing creates a file optimized for delivery to mobile devices.  And note that the None multiplexing option creates separate audio and video files.
    Adobe Media Encoder only offers multiplexed AAC encoding for MPEG4 and H.264 files.  Although not lossless, the quality of AAC can be very high and is the general standard for the MPEG4 container format.  Lossless encoding is not common for the MPEG4 container format, though it is legal per the MPEG4 Part 14 specifications.  Again, you should match your export settings to the intended use of the video file.

  • No settings for Apple Lossless Audio Codec found in Compressor

    For archiving reasons I have to convert many audio files to Apple Lossless (ALAC). So I thought it would be easy using Compressor 4 and and a suitable droplet. I was astonished that here are only settings for the following audio formats: AAC, AC3, AIFF, CAF, MP3 and WAV.
    No Apple Lossless Codec in the settings?
    Does anyone know how to create ALAC files

    Thomas A. wrote:
    This setting generates a QuickTime file with the extension .mov
    Of course it does. Why would that be a problem? "Apple Lossless" is not a file format, it's a codec.
    OK, if I change the extension manually to m4a it seems to be an ALAC file, but I am not sure if it a "correct" one in regard to the specifications.
    There is no "ALAC" file format specification. What are you going to use the files for?
    ALAC isn't specified at all. The audio codec is called "Apple Lossless", and it is a set of algorithms to encode audio data, and a specification for a bitstream of audio data encoded such. It can be put in various containers, the most common being MPEG-4 and Apple Quicktime, but nothing will stop you from using AVI, .mkv, .ogg or anything else as the container format.
    If you're unhappy with Compressor, which only seems to offer the QuickTime container format for Apple Lossless-encoded audio, there might be other tools that will transfer it into another container while leaving the actual encoded data untouched.
    Since the Apple Lossless codec is now free, mencoder might work, even for the encoding itself. I haven't checked MPEG Streamclip, Handbrake, VLC or others, which might also offer such options.
    Quick tests didn't yield any success, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't work.
    An alternative for lessless encoding is the "FLAC" (free lossless audio codec), which is usually stored in an ogg container file. I don't think Compressor offers that, although VLC does.
    It seems that the exact thing you want is not readily available (i. e. mpeg-4 audio-only with Apple Lossless audio codec.)

  • Seemingly Simple Audio Edits Driving Me Nuts

    I have asked about this before, thought I had the proper answer, but alas it would seem not.
    After joining audio (in most cases for music transitions) into Connected Storyline, I am often then unable to apply a Transition of perform a Roll Edit because it seems there is a space in there somewhere.  I have tried the suggested remedy of Zooming in, using Position Tool to trim both sides of the edit, then deleting the space in between.  It was explained the problem invovles sub frames which aren't always visible.  Sometimes this works.  It seems like there should be a quicker solution (it's especially cumbersome if your edit is otherwise well timed, and you have to re-tweak it once you pull the edges back,) but if it worked consistently I could live with it. 
    However, far too frequently, the process is not working, and I am redoing it over and over and over again until somehow it manages to take.  I can end up spending 5 to 10 minutes on a simple audio edit, and needless to say, this is just unacceptable. 
    Can anyone tell me a reliable way to deal with this, or suggest what I might be doing wrong or something different I can try, because this is making me crazy.  There has got to be an easier way.  Any help appreciated. 

    dont think ive ever been able to get cross dissolves on audio to work. I now use FCPX as I would Logic or ProTools and I overlap audio clips and put manual fades on them. Actually its worth the extra work coz the joins are usually better. and you have ore control.

  • Trasferring Audio Edits as AAF from Premiere to Nuendo and back

    Hello everybody,
    I'm a Sound Designer for video games, and also deal with cinematic sequences. I use Nuendo for audio editing / sound design, while the video editors work with Premiere. We share the same audio footage that is stored on our internal server, and we copy the footage manually (or over Perforce) on our local PCs. Basically to make sure we're always dealing with the same footage in a fixed and locked format during the entire production chain from capture to final render. This obviously makes an AAF with 'embedded' audio obsolete and in fact unwanted, as well as any other "work-in-progress" audio render from one platform to another.
    Situation 1: Premiere -> Nuendo
    In Premiere we have several Stereo audio tracks with stereo footage.
    AAF is exported from Premiere
    AAF is then imported into Nuendo
    Result:
    Stereo tracks are imported wrong, because split into mono, which naturally duplicates the amount of tracks.
    Stereo footage is now duplicated too due to duplication of track amount.
    Stereo footage is still stereo, because manually copied from server.
    Expectation:
    Stereo tracks should remain stereo without splitting or duplicating tracks.
    Situation 2: Nuendo -> Premiere
    In Nuendo there are several Stereo audio tracks with stereo footage.
    AAF is exported from Nuendo
    AAF is then imported into Premiere
    Result:
    Stereo tracks are imported as Mono tracks (this time without duplicating the track number)
    Stereo footage is not accepted, due to mismatch with track format (Mono)
    Expectation:
    Stereo tracks should remain stereo which then accept stereo footage
    It's really important for us that the audio footage doesn't change format during the production chain. So for instance splitting stereo into mono left / mono right is not a good option as we want the original footage to remain untouched from capture to final render. So we need stereo tracks to remain stereo and mono tracks to remain mono, just as the original edit.
    Using OMF instead of AAF causes the same problem, and adds more problems with the naming of the footage. So AAF is currently the best yet buggy method we have.
    In the past I have transferred AAF files from Protools into Nuendo, and it worked fine, which makes me tend to believe the solution has to be somewhere in Premiere.
    Any hints, tips and useful experiences are very welcome. Thanks a lot!
    Regards
    Christian
