M-audio 410 and Soundtrack Pro won't "PLAY NICE" together!!

I can't get any output to my Firewire 410 from Soundtrack Pro. The input works but no output. I tried every setting with not one db of output. The most recent was not looping through another firewire device, but to go straight into my G5.
Does anyone have this device working on your mac?
Please help if you can,
JCB123

I have the same setup and haven't had any problems. I am connected by firewire. In STP, my input device and my monitor are set to Firewire 410. In System Prefernces / Sound, I have both my input and output set to Firewire 410 as well. And in the M-Audio Firewire 410 audio interface software under the Mixer Tab, I have spdif highlighted under Analog In. Then under the Output Tab I have Main highlighted under SPDIF OUT.
I run an optical cable from the 410 to a hometheatre system right now but have a proper set of audio monitors on the way. I intend to plug them into outputs 1&2 in which case I will also highlight 1/2 under ANALOG IN under the MIXER tab and highlight MAIN under 1/2 OUT under the OUTPUT tab.
Hope this helps a bit. I am still new to this but so far have been able to get this far. Good luck!

ARD and Time Machine don't play nice together

Hi there. Running 10.5.4 Server on a headless Mac Pro 8-core Xeon.
Thought i'd see how well time machine works as an incremental backup solution for my server. I use ARD to access the server. When i enter time machine using ARD i get some buggy glitchy version of time machine with no timeline or clear indication of where the controls are. Utterly unusable.
Any tips as to how to get these two magical pieces of software to play nice together?
in community,
~joel

Ahhhh -- so that's what's going on!
I have a Dual G5 Desktop that I'm connecting to, and it has worked perfectly -- except tonight.
I added about 1.6GB of data, and Time Machine has been spinning away!
Has anyone suggested how to get around this?

Xserve and Compaq HSG80 won't play nice.

My company purchased a used HSG80 SAN to use in conjunction with an xserve. The xserve is only a few months old and has been fully updated to 10.5.3. They are connected through Fiber channel.
I have made available from the SAN that is 820GB in size. However whenever I try to write data to the mounted drive it will either not complete successfully at all in the case of files over a few hundred megabytes in size. Small files will write, but will be corrupted.
I have tried giving a linux machine access to his disk and it can partition and write files just fine.
Are there any known issues with writing to the HSG80, or any fiber channel SAN for that matter?

Donno if anybody has done any testing with an HSG80 and an Xserve with Mac OS X Server; the 'G is a fairly old controller. Most folks are probably using the MSA series controllers in this range now.
HP have published compatibility with a few of its StorageWorks widgets.
HSG80 firmware versions 8.7-7 or 8.8F look to be the current firmware. (There are some older versions of HSG80 that don't play nice with 146 GB or larger spindles.) What revision firmware do you have loaded?

Linksys WRTU54G-TM and Trendnet tew-631brp not playing nice together, HELP

Ok so, since getting the tmobile@home service I have been having nothing but issues with my setup.
My current config setup includes the Comcast Cable modem <to WAN port of> Trendnet tew-631brp <LAN to WAN port of> Linkysy WRTU54G-TM and the WRT set to bridged mode. WRT firewall disabled, Wifi Disabled, Main router is the Trendnet with Wifi-N enabled. No machines are hard wired to my routers, I use only the Wifi-N from my trendnet.
Now the internet works as expected, except when you go to use the VOIP phone. When you pick it up, the net connection drops out and the Trendnet router reboots.
I have tried making the WRT the main router and having the Trendnet be the secondary, I've turned firewalls off, I've added them each router to the DMZ and nothing nothing nothing will fix this issue. Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

I just tried adding the WRT as the main router and the 631 as the secondary router, and it still won't work. Would the NAT cause an issue when it's set-up this way as well? This is so confusing.

Windows 7, Forms Runtime 6i and Discoverer 10g don't play nice together

Hi -
I posted this under the Discoverer Forum, but it was suggested that this might be a better place.
Let's see if I can have this make sense:
We are testing 3 Oracle products on a Windows 7 64-bit machine.
1. Forms Runtime 6i
2. Discoverer 10g version 10.1.2.3
3. ODBC from Ora client 11
I can install everything; although I had to install Discoverer in Compatablilty Mode using XP SP2. The ODBC client requires that I change the environment varialbes and add a New Environment variable called TNS_ADMIN.
Forms 6i works and the ODBC work until I install Discoverer. After installing Discoverer, I get a TNS cannont resolve.......on the Forms Runtime.
I'm lost as to how to get the Forms 6i to work. If you need any more information, please ask and I'll try to answer.
Thanks for all your help.

OK - so I thought the original post was from May of 2011 and wrote up my entire response accordingly. Only at the very end did I see that the original post was from May of 2010. Hopefully my response will help others who are only now trying to work through this issue.
Although Developer 6i is not officially supported by Oracle on Windows 7, it can run. It is just a bit finnicky to figure out.
There are a few of other things to I'd like to mention.
#1 Because you are running on a 64-bit OS, and depending on the Oracle 6i patch level you are running on the machine (we use Patch 17), you will need to replace two DLL files in the <ORA6i_HOME_DIR>\bin folder with version from 1/2/2001 (Patch 4, I think)
1. NN60.DLL
2. NNB60.DLL
If you do not replce these files, you will get an "FORM ERROR FRM-41211 Integration Error: SSL failure running another product" if you try to run a report from within your forms application, or if you try to open a form in a new window. The newer versions of these files apparently had removed some 64-bit calls when 64-bit Windows XP flopped.
More information (and my original source for my solution) can be found here: http://halimdba.blogspot.com/2009/05/oracle-forms-or-reports-6i-in-windows.html
#2 Because you are running on a 64-bit OS, if you want to add the TNS_ADMIN variable to your registry, you should add it in two places. HKLM\Software\Oracle AND HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Oracle
#3 During installation, I have a batch file that performs a lot of the 6i install stuff, so I don't run in compatability mode. But what I do is open a command prompt using "Run As Administrator" then browse to the 6i installers and install from that admin environment. If you are creating packaged forms 6i applications, I would strongly suggest investing the time to figure out how to script the 6i install for you clients. It can be a pain, but it is certainly much better than having to remember a gazillion different steps and make sure that you selec the approrpiate packages every time. The certainly don't need the full 6i environment, only the runtime portions.
#4 When installing multiple versions of oracle client, we've always found it best to start with the oldest version first. Get it running and tested, then move to the next version. Test the new version, then the old, then change the old to work with the new. Rinse and repeat. Of course, this is not required and may be impossible (installing your 6i app on machines that have been running 10g for years where you don't want to have to reimage the machine), but that order is definitely helpful in determine those steps that must be taken to get all versions working at the same time.

Unexpected problem: uncaught exception when working with audio files in Soundtrack Pro

Hey,
Whenever I double click an audio file in the timeline to work on it, I end up getting the Error message: "Unexpected problem: uncaught exception" and Soundtrack Pro eventually crashes. Also, this happens when I try to work with audio files in the file editor. I have Leopard and am using Logic Studio 8. Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks
Matt

Didnt know how to remove the original clip from the STP arrange window - or whatever it's called in STPro. So I could go no further in my perverse science experiment.
It also appeared that I could only import an aif but not a wav?
I gave up on STPro and did what I needed to do in Logic, which I use regularly.
Thank you for folowing up on this.
PS. I used to use an old PowerPC version (1.0.3) of STPro and loved the way it visually showed the change in the waveform when you added each efffect. It appears that the new version (3.0.1) does not allow you to do this anymore? You can render or flatten the effects to see the final waveform, but then you are dead in the water and cant make changes?
Im such a newbie at STPro that I am probably not using it right?

Logic Pro 9 Compressor and Soundtrack Pro

Hi,
I have recently installed Mackeeper in my iMac. After everything I opened Logic Pro and it couldn't open. So I thought it could be an issue from Mackeeper, I requested a help from them and they asked me to send my report and I sent to them. Later on I was recommended to uninstall the logic pro, so when I reinstalled the logic pro the following components Compressor and Soundtrack Pro were deselected, it was in gray and I couldn't find out how to install it. The other issue is that the installation was successfully completed without installing the Logic Studio Audio Contents 1,2,3 and Demo Content was also not installed
Is there anything wrong I did?
Help Please!
Many thanks in advance

Interesting; and who would have thought ! What does Logic and FCP have to do with each other being installed. I have FCP running (w./ all) and Logic Pro 9 and perhaps your Logic Studio 2 is not the same. I have no idea.
I'm hoping that I can export the LPro files into FCP ez along with exporting them to WAV or formats that a PC can use; if anyone has heard of problems with that. ?

Final Cut Pro 4.5 HD and Soundtrack Pro 1.0.2 and new Intel iMac

I have the both FCP and Soundtrack Pro versions listed above. I'm thinking about picking up a new Intel iMac. Will I have to pay $199 or $99 to upgrade to FCP Studio. I just purchased Soundtrack Pro recently, if I could upgrade for just $99 and get Shake and iDVD that would be a deal...probably still a deal for $199.
I also use CS2, seems Adobe is a little confusing to me. Will I have to pay to get CS2 native for the Intel iMac? Any idea on cost and timeliness.
Separately, how will FCP run on a 20" Intel iMac once upgraded to Universal version, which I'll have to do, since it won't run under Rosetta? I currently only do Mini DV but should I plan on getting the extra video memory now, planning on eventually going into the HD video realm?
Thanks everyone for your thoughts and comments...thinking about getting the Intel iMac via CompUSA with their interest free deals tomorrow.

Powebook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9) Happy with Mac...don't want to lose the ease!

well, same situation here, I was about to order a Macbook Pro but then decided to saty with our beloved G platform. the reason is that it will take some time for our Pro Apps to become fully /natively compatible with Intel and I just can't wait that much.
as for your question about using an iMac with FCP, the answer would be a;
"Yes" if you're going to work with DV only footage (using an external HD for your captured media is a must). and a
"No" if you plan to work with HD material in the future. there you've got no choice but a PowerMac G5 with a fast Graphic Card and a special SD/HD card or box to capture the footage.
résumé: if you're a serious FCP user, go for something expandible, go for a Powermac.

Exchange audio files in Soundtrack Pro

Im experimenting with mastering audio files in Soundtrack Pro 3.0.1.
I am wondering if I can swap audio files in and out of the same project file - so I can keep the same STP effects settings while changing the audio file version from v1 to v2. Does this make sense?
As a side question... would it be better to convert the output from 24 to 16 bit (and dither it) in Soundtrack, or let that happen when it imports into iTunes?
Thanks for helping a complete stranger. That always amazes and inspires me.

Why Do The Latest Versions Of Soundtrack and Soundtrack Pro Use .caf Files?

About 3 years ago Soundtrack and Soundtrack Pro started using .caf files instead of .aif ones.
The .caf files appear to take up more space than .aif and of course need rendering before they can be used in FCE/FCP.
So what is the logic behind their use?
I would add that I have skimmed through several articles which claim they have advantages ..... which I can't understand.
I only know that when used normally in FCE/FCP they seem to me a backward step, requiring rendering - almost like using .mp3 but without the space-saving features.

Here's a link from Apple:
http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/MusicAudio/Reference/CAFSpec/CAFoverview/CAFoverview.html
It touts "unrestricted file size" as one advantage of CAFs. Has any of us ever exceeded the supposed 4GB limit of AIF files?? This is from the page linked above:
"Whereas AIFF, AIFF-C, and WAV files are limited in size to 4 gigabytes, which might represent as little as 15 minutes of audio, CAF files use 64-bit file offsets, eliminating practical limits. A standard CAF file can hold audio data with a playback duration of hundreds of years."

FCP and soundtrack pro roundtrip problem?

Hello I am working on a video in the latest Final Cut Pro and software. I need to take out the hum of the audio, but when I send the audio file to Soundtrack Pro and take out the hum and then save it, the audio goes offline when I go back to FCP and it says something like the attributes no longer match or something. What am I doing wrong? Is there specific ways I need to do this? When you send to soundtrack pro it asks if you want to send only referenced media. I tried both way but no go.
Any ideas?
thanks!

Interesting question - We don't use attorneys - too expensive, and we never listen to 'em anyway, so the info didn't come from a lawyer, ha ha. But I've seen several examples of music cue sheets, and they all contain the same information, including composer, publisher, society, timing, etc. (After all, that's the purpose of the cue sheet - to see that the artists and producers get paid for their work). You can find one format at:
www.ascap.com/musicbiz/cuesheetcorner/pdf/SampleCue
Of course, if the example comes from ASCAP (as that one does) or another society (BMI, others), they are working to make their job easier, but they are the societies - they are the ones who can object if they don't like it. And they have substantial power to penalize a producer for not doing what they want. But here's the thing: there's huge tradition in Hollywood, and the rule is (and the contracts say) that if you don't provide everything on the distributor's list of deliverables, they hold your money until you do - and one of the things on the list of deliverables is a music cue sheet, and every example I've ever seen (and I've seen at least 20) asks for the same information. So that's the answer as to "who told you that?" Is is possible that I'm being led down the garden path by ASCAP and the movie industry in general? Sure, but every source I consult agrees that this is the reality. I wish I could avoid it, but as I understand the situation, I have to do it, and it has to contain the info, or we'll never see our dough, ha ha. But my question remains the same - how do I get that info for the "royalty-free" music library attached to FCP?

Workflow between fcp and soundtrack pro

i am working on getting the workflow between final cut pro and soundtrack pro right for several weeks now, and i have to say, i expected more.
not that all the special gadgets aren't there, they are just not working the way they describe them in their manual or other sources.
am i the only who has made such experiences working with these tools?
for example: if i want to send a single clip from my timeline to soundtrack, there should be the possibility to have in and out points, so that final cut doesn't send the whole clip (even the parts i don't use ) to soundtrack. cool feature if it would work! no matter what you do it always sends the whole clip to soundtrack and therefore saves the whole file with all the changes and effects. and we don't talk about 8 or 9 MB here. a single clip of 1 minute, altered with EQ, takes up to 80 MB to save!!
another problem from my point of view is the exchange of whole sequences. the whole thing heavily depends on the use of markers, because without them someone working with soundtrack doesn't even see were the cuts are, which makes it nearly impossible to synchronise sounds. markers have to be placed at every single cut.
i could go in like this, but first i would like to know if i mist some fundamental thing about the use of these two pieces of software.

It depends on how you are working. If you've sent over something as a Multitrack project then you have to export the mix and edit it back in as it doesn't update in the same way. A STP audio file shoul update upon saving.

I've upgraded to OS 10.8.2 and my Bowers and Wilkins MM-1 Speakers were working fine until today, and now they won't play any sound at all, even though iTunes shows the audio is playing. I've tried both the headphone jack and the USB port. Please help!

Michael,
Thanks. I haven't mixed down the audio or checked the number of tracks in Prefs. Good points.
As far as a mixdown goes, I'll definitely give it a try, though I wonder whether or not the tracks will be recognized during mix down recording - given that you can't hear either of those segments in playback. Just have to try.
Re the preferred number of allowed tracks - I'll go check as soon as I send this off, but I'm not sure that applies in this case, since the two Channels containing the segments that are pinked out are not in additional tracks. I should have mentioned that other audio clips and segments on the same Channels in the SAME tracks ARE heard in playback. As are two additional track in the 2nd Sequence. It's only when the two sequences are joined that the pink tinted segments can't be heard. Within the sequence the same audio cuts playback as they should. Thanks again &
Best regards,
David

I installed Lion OS X and Logic Pro won't run. I downloaded the 9.1.5 update: "An Eligible Logic Pro Version Was Not Found in the Applications Folder. This Update require Logic Pro Version 9.0 or higher". I have Logic Pro Version 9.1.1 installed.

I installed Lion OS X and Logic Pro won't run. I downloaded the 9.1.5 update: "An Eligible Logic Pro Version Was Not Found in the Applications Folder. This Update require Logic Pro Version 9.0 or higher". I have Logic Pro Version 9.1.1 installed.
I even pulled the dmg file into the Logic Studio folder in my applications directory and it still does not recognize it. What do I do now?

Niel: Thanks.
For others benefit, here is what happened.
I had installed Logic Studio 9.1 some time ago.......not knowing what all the programs were nor what they did, I created a "Logic Studio" subfolder in my applications folder and put all Logic Studio programs into it so I'd know where they were and could review each at my leisure over time.
My assumption now is that when the updater looks for the Logic Pro program, it looks only in the applications folder. It seems lame that it would not also look in the subfolders of the applications folder, but that apparently IS the way it works. Because my Logic Pro program was located in the "Logic Studio" subfolder, the updater just didn't see it..hence the error message I received when I tried to update.
Solution: I moved all the Logic Studio programs out of the subfolder and now they reside in the applications folder. Ran the 9.1.5 updater and it worked like a charm.

CD will not eject and MacBook Pro won't restart

CD will not eject and MacBook Pro won't restart.

Do a SMC reset, that hopefully should get you booting and while booting, hold the option/alt and trackpad button down at the same time. Once a row of icons appears and if the disk hasn't ejected via the trackpad method, then press the eject key on the keyboard until it does.
Click the arrow to boot up OS X.

If this doesn't work, then take the machine in for service.
