M-Audio M-Track problem with Mainstage 3.0.2

I recently purchased an M-Audio M-Track and wanted to use this to input guitar tracks into Mainstage 3. However, when I try, it does not recognize any inputs. The M-Track is working fine, because I can use it without any issue with Mainstage 2 and it also works fine with Ignite. I have seen other entries in the forum for with the same issue for the Fast Track. For the Fast Track, it appears that the problem was fixed with new drivers. However, there are no drivers for the M-Track. Has anyone been successful in getting 3.0.2 to recognize inputs for the M-Track?

Hello, crosbygs.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are a couple resources I would recommend going through for this issue.

'Source play' and 'audio-video sync' problems with PE8 on fast WIN7 64 bit computer

I am transferring Hi8 videos, about 2 hours long, to my WIN7 64 bit computer with PE8. [Dell Mobile Precision M4400 Computer Workstation (Intel Core 2 Duo T9900 500GB/4GB); NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M, 512MB] I seem to have several problems:
First, after importing the file (.avi), I get a message about ‘dropped frames.’
Secondly, when I try to play the video in the source monitor, the audio plays but the video doesn’t; it only shows the first frame [this is after waiting until the video is ?recognized? ] I can use the shift-arrow key and see that the video is there.
Thirdly, I can play the .avi file in other players, e.g., avidemux or PE pro CS5 on another computer. There, I see that the audio and video are not in sync; the audio can be up to 300 ms ahead of the video (as determined using avidemux).
Questions:
1. Why doesn’t the source monitor play the video? Is this a problem with PE8 (latest update as of 3 March 2011) on aWIN7 64 bit computer (intel duo core. 3 GHz).
2. Is the audio-video sync problem the result of the ‘dropped frames?’ How can PE8 correct this? Avoid this? Or, is it coincidence?

"I think you're telling me you're using a backwards compatible Digital8 camcorder to capture your video as DV-AVIs. Is that right?" YES
"Are you using Premiere Elements to do this capturing?" YES, AS ABOVE PE8
"Go to the File menu and select Properties. It should show a standard DV codec being used for your video and audio."
WMP v12 is dumb. Under properties, media, it says 'video.' However, avidemux gave me the information state above: video -- Codec 4CC: dvsd, frame rate: 29.971 fps; audio -- codec: PCM, channels: Stereo, frequency: 48 kHz.
So, back to the Questions:
1. Why doesn’t the source monitor play the video? Is this a problem with PE8 (latest update as of 3 March 2011) on aWIN7 64 bit computer (intel duo core. 3 GHz).
2. Is the audio-video sync problem the result of the ‘dropped frames?’ How can PE8 correct this? Avoid this? Or, is it coincidence?

Multiple Video Tracks Problem with Back Button

Hi,
I am making a DVD that has to contain 16 films. Unfortunately the videos don't have the same aspect ratios, so I have to create one video track for each film.
When the DVD is started they are supposed to play all in a row (no menus). So the end action for each track is to jump to the first chapter of the next track.
My problem is that once I am playing, say, track 5, there is no way to get back to track 4 with the "back button" on the remote control.
Do I have to script this? And if yes, how?

That is exactly my problem. Chapter markers only work on the same track, for some reason you can't jump to a chapter in a different track. What I need is a solution to jump from a track to the previous one when pressing the back button on the remote.
As I wrote before I can't use just one track for all films, because they have different aspect ratios.

Audio input/output problems with Mac Mini

at first, my sound just stopped working all together and for some reason the monitor was getting no signal from the mac mini. i unplugged everything for a minute and plugged it back in and the monitor was working again, but still nothing with the sound. no sound coming out from even the internal speaker, and the audio in jack (which i use frequently) stopped working as well.
this is the really strange part: after tinkering around trying to fix the problem i realized the only sound that comes out it is from the internal speaker, but it only comes out when i have something connected to the headphones jack.
has anyone ever had a problem like this? i'm just trying to figure out if it is something i can take care of myself, or if i might need some repairs done.

OK, then two things to do.
First reset parameter RAM - it's an area of non-volatile memory used for system settings and hardware configuration. It it gets corrupted, it can cause odd problems.
Reset PRAM
-Shut down the computer.
-Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in the next step but one.
-Turn on the computer.
-Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
-Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
-Release the keys.
Next, perform an SMC reset. The SMC is the device which controls system hardware and devices, so if there is a problem with hardware components not functioning, it could be that.
To reset the SMC on an Intel mini:
-From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
-Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
-Wait at least 15 seconds.
-Plug the power cord back in, making sure the power button is not being pressed at the time.
-Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
-Press the power button on the back to start up your computer.

Mighty Mouse Tracking Problems with Mac mini core duo

I have a new Mac mini core duo (2GB RAM, 100GB HDD) and I'm having problems with my USB Might Mouse.
The cursor stutters and doesn't track with the movement of the mouse and it will sometimes leap to a different part of the screen or get stuck at the last place it rested. At other times the mouse will track smoothly for a while before starting to stutter again. The behavior isn't consistent.
Is anybody else having tracking problems?
Any thoughts on what might be causing this behavior?
iMac G5 20 & Mac mini 1.42Ghz, PB G4 1.67Mhz, Mac mini core duo Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Hmm, this could be one of two things. Your mac might be faulty (Harware wise) which would suck. But, hopefully it is a problem with your drivers that need updating. Try these 3 options.
1. Update you mouse driver.
2. Update you video card driver (Video cards can sometimes affect mouse sensitivety -don't ask why)
3. This is my last solution, before consulting a technician (For money if you can do it free talk to one!) or returning your mini: Try reformating/reinstalling Max OSX and if u have bootcamp check out wat happens to the mouse in XP check for the same problem if it doesn't happen in XP your hardware is safe. IF the problem continues after this... looks like your hardware is bad in that case i recomend a return or send back (If your on warranty).
GOod luck,

M-AUDIO Fast Track Ultra with Final Cut 7

I have been using an M-Audio Fast Track Ultra device with Final Cut 6 and could listen to Quicktime 5.1 audio files in the timeline in full surround. Since I installed the Studio 3 upgrade with Final Cut 7 (same OSX version), this is not working anymore. I just have stereo output. When I start my backup version of Final Cut 6, it still work fine.
Any clue how to fix this in Final Cut 7 ?

Hi,
The 5.1 audio preset was already selected in the setting and each of the 6 audio tracks is assign to the proper speaker. It was the same set-up in the v6 but it was working which is not the case in the v7. There might be a new setting somewhere.
Thanks for trying.

Audio video synchronisation problem with Aja Kona Lse

Hi,
We have recently bought an Aja Kona Lse card and using it with FCP 6.0.2. At the time of playing back we found that video on external monitor(taken out from *composite out* of aja kona breakout box)lags behind the external speaker audio(taken out from *balanced audio out* of aja kona breakout box) atleast by 2-3 seconds,though the same audio is in sync with FCP canvas video.
Please help,
Thanking you in advance

Are you sure about the source of the audio? Have you double checked the internal routing within FCP?
What you describe is exactly what happens when the audio is bypassing the external device and going through the Macs system audio. If going through the system audio, it will stay in sync with the Canvas. If going through the card, it should be in sync with the monitor being fed by the same card.
Good luck,

Strange problems with Mainstage

Hey
We would like to use Mainstage for our live-performances, but there are some probleme we can't explain ourselves and we can't solve yet. I hope someone has an idea.
We have Mainstage 2.1.3 running on Mac OS 10.5.8 (MacBook)
We have a Livesession with 11 Tracks including two Audio-Tracks and two instruments.
Problem 1: Randomly the track starts even we programmed that you'll have to press the "Start-Buttom". We can't figure out when Mainstage does this. It happens once any rehearsal.
Problem 2: We tried to solve Problem 1 by programming Mainstage that the tracks always start when switching to the next song. When we did that, the tracks don't start from the beginning. Even a reset is programmed when chancing the some.
I realy hope someone can help.
Thanks very much
Fabian

Are you running these tracks in Live rewired to Mainstage?

Tracking problem with Bluetooth mouse..

I recently changed batteries in my Bluetooth wireless mouse... I've done that many times in the past without incident... But this time something strange happened... I used to run the tracking speed setting at the second notch up from slow but now that is lightning fast. Even the next setting down, the first notch up from slow, is too fast... And the slowest setting is ironically too slow which means if I try to move the mouse across the screen at what I would consider a normal speed, the mouse jumps back left as I move right, meaning I am overwhelming the control system... The point is something changed and I can't imagine what... These new batteries are now down a notch from top power meaning they are not new anymore but still the lowest notch is too slow and the next one up is too fast... My real question is what could have changed?? I am running 10.4.6 and I don't believe I had changed anything other than the batteries from before to after the problem started... Any thoughts???? thanks... bob..

Today I received a letter from Apple, a very strange letter that had no heading or address and didn't say "Apple", all it had was the Apple logo. But from the postmark on the envelope I could see it was posted in Cork, Ireland.
The letter confirmed that they had received my proof of purchase and that they would arrange for me to be send a replacement.
The letter said they had tried to call me but could not get through. This is FALSE. Anyone who ever calls me can always get through (although at times, they may get my voicemail). Nobody from Apple left any messages on my voicemail.
The letter gave me a Case Number and said to call their "Technical Support Team".
When I called the number they gave 0870 8760753 I was offered a number of options, NONE OF WHICH covered my reason for calling, so I chose the seemingly nearest option to it.
I found myself talking to something with an Indian accent so thick and heavy that I could barely understand him, and I am used to Indian accents.
He seemed very tired or sleepy; certainly on taking my call he seemed to be settling himself in for some kind of long haul.
Very slowly and hesitantly he started asking me for all kinds of details about me. As I gave him each piece of information he asked me for, he kept interrupting during the process that that I had to repeat myself several times. I had to interrupt him to tell him I had a Case Number (he had not asked me for one).
He took my Case Number , and paused for a long time, then said "well....Mr. -, this is about a Bluetooth Mouse, yes?"
Brilliant.
He seemed to think the pair of us were going to spend a long time negotiating about something.
He said he would need to go and speak to his supervisor. I waited on the line for 10 (repeat TEN) minutes.
He came back "Well, Mr. -....I need to check all your details".. including all my credit card details....very slowly and repeating everything twice.
Several exasperating minutes later I THINK I had convinced him that he had all my details and that he needed to have a new mouse sent to me.
He said that when the new mouse comes (THINKS...if it comes) via UPS, I must send the dead one back to them within 10 days or they will charge me for the new one. I said what happens if I don't (because this is the summer and I might be out of the country on holiday).
"That is the procedure".
I replied "so you have all the information you need now and you are going to send me the mouse, yes?"
"yes".
---long silence---
I said "IS that the end of the telephone conversation?"
"yes."
"OK thanks, goodbye"-
MORAL OF THIS STORY:
If you buy an Apple wireless mouse and it dies on you, consider if you really badly need to have it replaced by Apple. HOw much time do you have to waste?

MacBook Pro, M-Audio Firewire Interface-works with mainstage BUT NOT logic!

I have a brand new mac book pro and a m-audio firewire series interface that i am using to plug in my guitars. The problem is i cant get any sound to come out of Logic Pro. I have connected the exact same devices to Main Stage and I can get sound instantly, however of course the sound output on main stage is selected to the computers speakers. I can't seem to find a similar setting on Logic Pro, could this be the problem, or maybe even another setting I have set incorrectly?

Here's where we're at, I completely agree, I do have a pair of power m-audio studio monitors connected through the headphone out from the computer itself, i should be going from the interface to these monitors directly.
Yes, and have you done so? After you do this, in Logic do to preferences/Audio and select only the M-Audio driver, not the aggregate device but the dedicated M-Audio driver.
As for the aggregate device, in the aggregate device setup try different devices as "clock master" until you find one that works. Maybe M-Audio Output.
Logic takes user input, it's not a simple program, that is..... it isn't "Apple Simple" which I usually think of as close to brain dead.
You will also need to make sure the correct set of inputs is selected for the track you're recording on, default is usually 1-2, if you're recording mono input 1 is left, input two is right.
Also make sure you have "Universal Track Mode" in Logic Preferences/Audio selected. I would encourage you to first get things working using M-Audio's dedicated hardware driver, plug your speakers into the M-Audio main outs.

Audio 5.1 problem with K8N Neo4 Platinum

Hi,
First of all, apologize for my bad english (I'm French).
I have a problem similar to aberdeen5...
I recently installed 5.1 speakers on my motherboard, but in Windows, Media Player and PowerDVD I only get sound on the 2 front speakers.
I set 6 speakers in PowerDVD and 5.1 surround speakers in the windows control panel. In the mixer, the sound is on for the six speakers.
I test the speakers with MSI CoreCell and the MSI sound control panel and the 6 speakers work fine...
In dxdiag (DirectX utility), the sound test works only on the front speakers when the software buffer memory is used, but when the test used hardware buffer memory, the sound comes well from the 6 speakers...
I've installed the nVidia unified driver for the nForce4, and the latest Realtek AC97 drivers ( a3.73 WHQL)...
If someone has an idea, or had the same problem and solve it, eventually even with an other motherboard, I thank him very much to help me :-)
Have a good day !

Hi,
Finally I tried what you suggested, but the problem remained.
I desinstalled Realtek drivers and installed manually the last nVidia audio ones, included in the 6.53 release. The sound is better, but in PowerDVD it remains on the 2 front speakers...
Perhaps my version of PowerDVD (OEM 5.0) can't play in 5.1... I will try the Deluxe 6.0 version.
when you use 5.1 speakers, do you here the 'ting' sound onthe 6 speakers when you turn on/down the system sound in the task bar ?
I will reinstall the Terratec in my new config and see the behaviour in Windows and PowerDVD 5, then I will know about it.
I will post a new topic later with the solution if I found something. The posts in "New Nforce audio drivers?" from syar2003 were also useful for me. It's difficult to install the audio drivers and choose between "MCP nvidia" and "audio codec nvidia".
Thanks again for your help.

Anybody's Audio Driver has problem with PhotoShop CS 5?

I hate when this happened. I have downloaded the lastest version of Nvidia Quardo 2000m driver, which is 285.62. And I have also update the BIOS to 1.33. They did not work at all. However, I did not have this problem about 2 days ago. I had exactly same Nvidia driver at the time, only the BIOS was different which was 1.27. This morning I restored the machine back to last sunday. (which is the time everything was supposed to be okay)However, I still got this problem when I opened my PhotoShop. Then, I undo the restore back to yesterday. I assume that ThinkPad W520 series is good for graphic designing or anything like this. How come I always have this problem?
Thanks.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have been using the NVIDIA driver 285.62 (plus BIOS 1.33) with Photoshop 5.5 (64bit) with no issues. I don't think that the NVIDIA drivers are the problem here.

Tutorial: Issue Tracker, Problem with Authorization

Hi All,
I just worked through the Issue Trackin System Tutorial, everything looks great except the Authorization. I did the Tutorial on our local Instance of HTMLDB so I had to modify the Authorization Schemes a little. People should login using their internal HTMLDB-Account, which uses an extra loginname, not the email adress. So i added a column PERSON_LOGIN to the ht_people table which holds the userID. My Authorizationscheme looks like this:
select '1' from ht_people where
(upper(PERSON_LOGIN) = upper(:APP_USER) and
PERSON_ROLE in ('Lead','Member') and
ASSIGNED_PROJECT = :P7_RELATED_PROJECT)
or (:APP_USER = 'HOWTO')
or (:P7_ISSUE_ID is null)
This Scheme simply does not work, the user does not get the authorization to edit the issues assigned to him. I canÂ´t see the problem, if I do this query I get the expected column back. If I log in to the Application and try to edit the issues, I donÂ´t get the neccesary authorization. Any Ides ?

From Scott -
I installed that demo app on our hosted site. I don't see anything structurally wrong with page 0 breadcrumbs. When you edit page 0, do you see the correct menu region, or is there a big number where its name should be? If you find something that you cannot repair, please let us know.
As for the authorization schemes, I see what's going on. The scheme controls the display of buttons and a region on page 7 and is evaluated during the rendering of the region and the buttons. These events take place before the item P7_RELATED_PROJECT is rendered, thus before its session state is established or altered during that page view. However the implementation of the authorization scheme references the current session state of that item. That won't work. Using standard conditions (vs. authorization schemes) to control the buttons/regions that are earlier on the page than the referenced item would have the same problem if they used the same logic. For situations like this, LOVs that submit the page and result in a branch back to the same page can be very useful, or splitting the page into multiple pages, as in wizard implementations, can also work.
From Sharon -
I want to thank you for pointing out this bug. This is our first tutorial document and a lot of time was spent making sure that users could follow the directions and learn how to create all the objects that make up an application. Obviously, not enough time was spent testing the resultant application. The statement below should work for the Authorization Scheme in question.
select '1'
from ht_people
where (person_email = :APP_USER and
person_role in ('Lead','Member') and
assigned_project = (select related_project
from ht_issues
where issue_id = :P7_ISSUE_ID))
or (:APP_USER = 'HOWTO')
or (:P7_ISSUE_ID is null)
You will notice that is allows the modification of the issue by either the Lead or any Member of the project, not just the one assigned. When I update the document and repost on OTN, I will make a note of that.
This checks that the current value of related project is the project that the Member or Lead is assigned to. It is true that while viewing the page, the user can change the related project. Once the change is applied, they would no longer be able to edit that issue.

MOTION TRACKING PROBLEM WITH ADJUSTMENT LAYER

Hi.
I'm trying to blur out a logo on a shoe, but I'm having some difficulty getting the tracker to stick to the logo. Can someone help me, please. Here are the steps I took:
1. I used Tracker to track a logo that I want to blur out.
2. After analyzing the layer, I went back to check the attach point frame by frame The attach point is centred perfectly on the logo on every frame.
3. Then, I added an adjustment layer, and used the pick whip to ensure that the position of the adjustment layer is the same as the attach point position from the tracker.
4. On the adjustment layer, I created an ellipse mask, applied a gaussian blur. But when I do playback, the ellipse mask is all over the place and not sticking to the logo.
Does anyone have an idea as to what I'm doing wrong? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, in advance.
2010 Mac Pro. After Effects CS5. Snow Leopard 10.6.6.

To start off I always apply tracking data to a null then parent the null to the layers that should follow the track.
Make sure that you have picked the right target. Make sure that you've picked the right options. You should be using Transform as the track type. You should also do a quick Google search. There are a bunch of tracking tutorials out there.
If your null follows the object then you can parent the adjustment layer to the null. That should do it.
